THE FIRST CONCERN.
Prevention of Diseases of Heart,
Blood-vessels and Kidneys.—Traces
of albumin, high blood pressure, and
sometimes low blood pressure, and
slight thickening of arteries, are sig-
nals that suggest the importance of
taking preventive measures against
the degenerative diseases which are
now so heavily on the increase and
which are responsible for the increas-
ing mortality in the United States at
middle life and later.
Thickening of the arteries is very
common in middle life and old age,
but, strictly speaking, is not normal
at any age. The examinations of
the Institute show that in a remark-
ably large precentage of cases, thick-
ening of the arteries is present in
very young people. As this process
is a very slow one, it sometimes
does not cause trouble until middle
life is reached, but there is always
a danger that such conditions will
progress and impair the efficiency of
the individual and lessen his resist-
ance to disease.
The presence of a very slight
thickening of the arteries is not an
occasion for alarm, but simply a
warning that there is greater need
of observing the rules of personal hy-
giene. There is a mistaken impres-
sion that high blood pressure always
accompanies thickening of arteries.
That is not so. Decided thickening
is often found with normal blood
pressure, yet high blood pressure is
often a cause of thickening.
The blood pressure varies between
rather wide limits among healthy
people, depending on their nervous
condition. A blood pressure that is
persistently 15 mm. above the nor-
mal average for the age, or shows a
tendency to greatly increase under
slight provocation, should be kept
under observation, and the individu-
al’'s mode of life so ordered with re-
gard to diet, exercise, sleep, work,
etc., that his circulation may be safe-
guarded and a normal poise attained
and maintained. :
Low blood pressure, others things
being equal, is a favorable condition,
cause she thinks it is more fashion-
able than some of the others.

Charles Ames had a record of 700
flying hours, receiving his training
at Mather field. Sacramento Brooks

an instructor at Brooks field and at
Kelly field, later performing the

was killed on October 1st, 1925.

General Principles.—In answer to
the question, “How shall I live in or-

dies?” we may say: Temperance all
along the line—in eating, drinking,
working, playing, and even in resting.
But what is temperance for one
man may be excess for another.

coming thoroughly air-minded, the
eyes of Pennsylvania will all be cen-

field which gives promise of being
a gateway to air traffic north, south

point for lines serving thirty millions

What most women feared, too, was
that the extra length of skirt would
look less youthful! To look eighteen,
from the back, has been the privil

i the natural waistline has not brought
! with it the old-fashioned corset.
The princess line is undoubtedly
the theme of the season on which
each counturier has worked out his
own particular ideas. This takes the
form of a more or less long sheath-
like bodice extending well over the
| hips and terminated by a skirt in the
form of a flounce, plain or pleated.
A uniform, all-round length is anoth-
er thing that strikes one in the new
styles. The timid reappearance of a
modified train is another. Jean Patou
showed several evening dresses with
a decided train and nothing more
graceful or feminine could have been
wished for.
—So far as new materials are con-
cerned, tweeds of every description
occupy the leading place. The dis-
appearanc of the long coat has led
to a number of new ‘combinations,”
rand some of the smartest morning
or street ensembles have a coat of
varying length worn over a dress of
jersey or some other soft wool ma-
terial.
Satins and printed velvets are the
| favored medium for afternoon dresses
‘whilst for evening there is a galaxy
of fabrics to suit the most versatile
taste. Plain velvets will probably
' dominate as a material for a winter
evening dress. Dyers seem to have
surpassed themselves this season and
seldom have there been such a choice
of beautiful, deep colorings.
—Green and brown are the dom-
inating street colors and these are
| to be seen in every shade imaginable.
Deep greens, violets and even brown
are used for evening wear, too, but as
usual black is given a very import-
ant place. French blue is another
revival, while some important houses,
such as Lelong, use a great many
“‘off-shades” exclusively reserved to
them.
Fur fashions show a decided
change, too. The practical coat for
daytime wear is now the hip-length
variety—a fashion not seen in many
years in Paris. Furlined coats are
preferred to the long fur model.
—Have you often wondered wheth-
er there wasn't some way that you
could keep your jersey costumes
from clinging so toyou figure. It
seems to be one of the greatest draw-
backs to this popular fabric—but at
last it can be eliminated. Chanel
has introduced a soft taffeta under-
skirt with her newest jersey suit and
it promises to be universally adopted.
The jersey will not cling to the taf-
feta and the taffeta is so light that
it will not rustle. This is a very
good idea for loosely woven tweeds
as well.

pay to allow them to lose flesh and
drop in production.
—Announcement was made last
week by Ralph E. Irwin, chief of the
milk section of the Pennsylvania
State Health Department, that in
conformity to the Act passed by the
last Legislature relative to milk con-
trol, printed copies of which are now
being forwarded to all dairymen and
milk dealers in the State, application
blanks will be available on and after
January 1st, 1930, and permits will
be required on and after September
1 1930.
Irwin said that the intervening
time would be necessary to develop
the required machinery properly to
enforce the law. The milk section will
however as in the past, continue to
make thorough inspections of all
dairies and milk plants for the pur-
pose of maintaining hygiene and
cleanliness now in general force in
this Commonwealth.
—All plants where milk is received
from farmers and payments made on
the basis of Babcock butterfat tests
are being thoroughly investigated by
field agents of the Bureau of Foods
and Chemistry, Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Agriculture, according to a
statement from the director, Dr.
James W. Kellogg.
Several violations in which many
farmers suffered a loss have been
unearthed during the past few
months and the parties responsible
prosecuted. A second violation by
one of the largest mlik buyers in the
southeastern counties has prompted
the bureau to issue another warning
to all milk dealers.
The bureau makes clear that un-
der reading the test so as to under-
pay farmers is the most vicious kind
of fraud and makes the responsible
parties liable to a fine of $100 to $1,-
000 or a nine-months jail sentence.
“All plants paying for milk on the
butterfat basis are required to em-
ploy competent and licensed testers,”
Doctor Kellogg explains. “Underread-
ing as well as overreading tests with-
in slight variations may be due to
lack of care and competency on the
part of testers but when the major-
ity of tests at one plant are consist-
ently under-read to the extent of
from one-third to 1 per cent. or more,
it is clear that such variations are a
plain attempt to defraud producers
by submitting reports showing low
tests and making payments accord-
ingly. 7
“The department’s representatives
are continuing the thorough check-
up, started several months ago, of
the activities of all the milk plants
and the accuracy of tests made by
testers.
In all cases where discrepancies
are found legal action will be in-
stituted against the persons respon-
sible, and licenses of incompetent
and careless testers will be revoked.”
—Perhaps there is nothing new un-
der the sun, but the new uses often
found for the old things are amazing
enough to keep us interested in life.
For instance, seaweed.
When the hogs owned by J. M.
Ballard, of Indiana, won the grand
championship at the last Interna-
tional Livestock show in Chicago,
most of the farmers who inquired
about their diet were amazed to find
that they were being fed kelp, a
rough brown-leaf seaweed that grows
in profusion off both American coasts.
Prof. Oscar Erf, of the Ohio State
university, was the first to experi-
ment with kelp as live stock feed.
His success prompted experiments at
Purdue university, and later ones at
the Towa and Utah agricultural ex-
periment stations. It was found that !
the weed contained at least 30 im- |
portant chemical elements and was
especially rich in iodine, in which sev- |
eral regions of the country are de-
ficient, says the Farm Journal. Mix-
ed in a very small proportion with
other feed it proved to have decid-
edly valuable medicinal qualities.
Not only has this addition to animal
diet helped the animals, it also is
providing a means of supplying io- |
dine to the human population.
