DIPHTHERIA
Diphtheria is a contagious dis
ease, caused by the Kiebs Loeffler
bacillus. There have been four
cases reported In Franklin Coun
ty during the past month, two of
these children were very ill and
were sent to the hospital where
it was necessary to put a tube in
the throat. The death rate from
diphtheria is greatest among in
fants under six months of age,
and the incidence of diphtheria
is greatest among children be
tween the ages of six months and
six years although all ages have
the disease.
The last Legislature passed a
bill requiring that all children six
months to six years shall be given
Diphtheria Toxoid.
The disease is spread by com
ing in contact with some dis
charge from a diphtheria pa
tient's nose or throat, some times
frofn this dischurge being on the
bed clothes, pencils and other ar
ticles. It is earnestly suggested
that parents have their young chil
dren vaccinated against Diphther
ia by their family physician, or
bring them to the Health Depart*
ment where they will b?. gladly
vaccinated. Vaccination Is suc
cesrful In preventing Diphtheria
in 90 per cent of cases. \
A Federal veterinarian, check
ing t|p on jlck bogs In Pitt County
gave tas causes for most of the
trouble poor management, miner
al deficiency, and unsanitary con
ditions.
A winter cover crop demon
stration to show the value of Aus

Nature dcilpitd the kidney* to do a
marvelous job. Their task is to keep the
flowing blood stream free of aa excees of
tozlc impurities. The act of living ? li ft
iltrlj ? is constantly producing waste
matter the kidneys must remove from
the blood if good heath is to endure.
When the kidneys fail to function as
| Nature intended* there is retention of
waste that may cauae body-wide dis
tress. One may suffer nagging backache,
persistant headache, attacks ol dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, pulfineae
under the eyes ? feel tired, nervous, all

Frequent, scanty or burning passages
are sometimes further evidence of kid
neyor bladder disturbance.
The recognised and proper treatment
is s diuretic medicine to help the kidneys
get rid of excess poisonous body waste.
