Your Health
THE FIRST CONCERN.
A very important point to consid-
er is the matter of so-called head-
ache cures, The majority of these:
pills, powders and wafers contain
coal-tar derivatives. Studies during
recent years have shown that, un-
less administered by one who ‘is
acquainted with their nature, and
who knows when and when not to
use them, coaltar products are dan-
gerous. These drugs—that is anti-
pyrine, phenacetine, acetanilide, and
all their various cousins— may pro-
duce skin eruptions, - nausea ‘and:
vomiting, may injure the red cells
in the blood, and may cause severe
heart depression with general col-
lapse.
While the coal-tar derivative drugs
are powerful, they are very useful
and must not be condemned without
admitting their value. The point is,
that, in the hands of the inexperienc-
ed and the uninformed, they are
dangerous agents.
The sufferer need not consult a
physician for each and every head-
ache. That is far from necessary.
A single headache may merely pro-
claim a temporary ailment that
will soon cure itself. Frequent head-
aches, severe headaches, headaches
of an uncommon character require
medical treatment and the sufferer
should consult his physician. In
the case of the ordinary headache
—that is, the occasional mild at-
tacit —it is often possible for the
Sufrerer to trace the source of his
ailment, and occasionally, having
traced the source, to remove it by
simnle, commonsense methods.
Thus, if the headache is due to a
stuffy atmosphere, a walk in the
open air will do much to relieve it.
Regular exercise—in the open air,
if possible—will often put an end
to habitual headache. If you can
ge" a morning exercise drill on your
radio, take it regularly. Or, if one’s
head aches because of long applica-
' tion to reading and writing in poor
or improper light, reclining for a
while in a dimly-lit or darkened
room will help.
In most cases a rest is indicated
for the headache. A tepid bath,
taken for ten or fifteen minutes, will
help. The application of a cold pack
to the head, or to the back of othe
neck, is often very helpful.
The headache that is due to too
much smoking, too much tea or
coffee or other overindulgence, vio-
lent exercise, lack of sleep and the
like indicates its own treatment,
Constipation is a very common
cause of headaches, and a care.
ful observation of the rules of diet
and exercise, with regular attention
to the bowels, will usually remove
the symptom. Simple medical treat-
ment for an upset or overloaded
stomsch or intestinal tract cures
many headaches.
‘It is most important of all, how-
ever. always to understand that a
headache is a signal, like the ring-
ing of a fire alarm. It is primarily
a warning for you to try to discov-
er the cause. If simple home
treatment, without the use of coni.
me-cial headache remedies, does not
bring prompt relief—then see your
doctor, but dom’t be satisfied with
silencing the fire alarm, for that will
not’ put out the fire. Don’t be con.
tent with treating the headache un-
til you have found and removed the
cause. Above all, don’t get into the
vicious habit of drugging yourself.
And do not rely on the advice of
the family or the neighbors, or
even the proprietor of the corner
drug store. The practice of 1f.
drugging is not only f. i:

—The most usual form of speech
‘disorder is “stammering,” or ‘‘stut-
“tering.” From the standpoint of
vdevelopment there are two distinct
\types, one which commences with
the development of speech and the
other that begins after the child
has learned to speak normally. The
first form is the more difficult to
correct.
The underlying cause of stammer-
ing is purely mental, It is essen-
tially due to emotional disturban-
ces, and implies lessened ability to
meet a difficult situation. It is
most frequently observed in so-call-
ed nervous, highly-strung children.

MAKING PLANS FOR
1930 TRAINING CAMPS.
The month of July has been des-
ignated as the time for this year’s
“| Citizens’ Military Training camps to
be conducted throughout the United
States, These camps are proving
very popular to the young men of
the nation 17 to 31 years of age,
37,500 students attending last year,
and in many districts, especially the
Central Pennsylvania district, there
were many applicants who were dis-
appointed due to the fact that the
quotas for the counties had
ing of the camps:
The camps are beneficial from a
national standpoint because the stu-
denftS learn something of drill, horse-
manship, camp sanitation; they
learn to respect and obey constitut-
ed authority, to be commanded and
to, command. This is one of _the
eatest national institutions for
eveloping confidence, pride and a
strong, healthy body. The training
is almost entirely outdoors. The
month is spent following a schedule
of wholesome activities that appeal
to youth, under the direct super-
vision of the United States govern-
ment and by specially selected in-
structors of the United States army,
in citizenship, athletics, equipment,
camping, marksmanship, recreation
and organization. Usually medals
and other prizes are given at the
termination of ‘each camp to the
students who excel in the various
activities conducted during the
camp.
The meals are well cooked and
especially adequate for the develop-
ment of healthy young American
citizens.
The training camps are of great
benefit to the individual student for
the reasons above stated, and that
is the reason these camps are so
popular and the same students re-
turn year after year, completing in
order the Basic, Red, White and
Blue Courses, which compares fav-
orably with the instructions given in
some of the best educational insti-
tutions in the country. Applications
for these camps are coming in now
from all over the State, betause
these young men are anxious to be
among the fortunate and get this
detail before the quota for their
county is filled.

the Citizens’ Military Training
Camps from the parents of eligible
young men or anyone interested in
this national outdoor movement will

AUTOS KILL 250 PEOPLE
IN TWO MONTHS OF YEAR.
During the months of January and
February, 250 persons were killed in
motor vehicle accidents in Pennsyl-
vania. February's total was 130.
In February 2477 persons were in-
jured, as against 2662 in January.
“The majority of the persons
killed and injured were pedestrians,”
said Motor Vehicles Commissioner
Benjamin G. Eynon today. ‘Despite
continual agitation in newspapers,
magazines, from the platform and
in school rooms, motor vehicle opera-
selves with an increasing disregard of
persons afoot. In the average Penn-
Sylvania municipality the pedestrian
takes his life in his hands when he
crosses the street even in suburban
Sections.
“In the city of Harrisburg alone
since January 1, five pedestrians
have been killed. In one case the

persons crossing the street retreated
to the curb, but that the person
whom his truck killed did not retreat,
There is nothing in the law compell-
ing persons afoot and legally in the

‘approach of a car or truck. There
is nothing in the law excusing a
motor vehicle operator traveling at
such speed thathe is unable to avoid
striking a person legally in the cart-
way.

some pretty collars and ermine and
squirrel, both dyed a lustrous

coats and costumes. He puts fur
around the hems of many of his
evening gowns which are extremely
wide and the added weight produces
a pleasant flare and swing when
the wearer walks.
A charming squirrel jacket, just
reaching to the waistline and blous-
ing a bit in the back, is worn over
one of his smart gray evening
gowns in moire. Another in black
has its jacket in white ermine.
—The general lengthening of line
in the new fashions is, of course,
more noticeable in evening clothes
than in those set aside for the day-
time. The combination of fitted
bodice and hips, marked waistline
and accompanying short wrap, all
tend to enhance this effect.
Fabric closely applied to the body
helps to accentuate the supple lines
of a gown. This fitted effect us-
ually is extended well over the hips,
where the skirt fullness breaks the
line. Carried too far, this sheath
would be unbecoming to most wo-
men, even the slimmest.
A moderately high waistline also
is known to make long lines ap-
pear still longer—besides adding to
the softness and supple look of the
gown. The fabric may be fitted
close to the figure as far as the
waistline, but here again, if the
bodice is form-fitting, a bolero ef-
fect will invariably be used by the
courterier to attenuate its rather too
severe line, The bolero therefore
plays the same part in the bodice
as the fullness in the skirt.
The short evening wrap is an-
other logical solving of the problem
of a perfect and fitting garment to
accompany the long, sometimes
trailing evening gown. It creates
an impression of slim height, and
does not hamper the movements as
a long wrap would.
One of the characteristics of the
new fashions is that every move-
ment which may, at first sight, ap-
pear in the light of an exaggera-
tion, carries a compensating fea-
ture within itself. Thus, a fullskirted
dance frock might rise looking
heavy and devoid of grace if it were
worn with a long coat. Hence the

Food specialists in the Bureau of
ome Economics of the United
States Department of Agriculture
have emphasized three definite aims ;
in meat c A
1. To cook meat according to the
cut. Tender cuts can be cooked
quickly unless they are large roasts,
and are best cooked in ° utensils
without + lids and without water.
Less tender cuts should be cooked
slowly with enough- water to soften
the connective tissue.
2. To cook meat to bring out the
maximum of flavor. Browning meat
on the outside and then cooking in
the appropriate way for the tender-
ness of the cut brings out a rich
flavor. Savory stuffings and well-
flavored gravies enhance the flavor
of meat.
3. To eliminate guesswork as to
when the meat is done. The oven
thermometer and the roast-meat-
thermometer are recommended as a
means to this end. “So many min.
utes to the pound” is not a sure
guide. The roast-meat thermometer,
put directly into the meat before
the cooking is begun, shows when
the desired stage has been reached.
Moreover, it shows when to stop
cooking. This way of roasting in.

It is also generally considered
better to feed all rations dry rather
than wet for turkeys.
—Watch the old hens in your
poultry flock. They are dangerous
spreaders of poultry tuberculosis.
—Milk, sour or sweet, is excellent
for breeding stock. Beef scraps or
other animal meal may be left out
if a plentiful supply of milk is avail-
able. :
—Feed and protection aid in keep-
ing turkeys fit. Vitamine A supplied
in yellow corn, cabbage, alfalfa,
clover, and most greens, * increases
resistance to colds. Cod liver oil
also is beneficial. :
—As a sanitary measure place a
disinfectant mat at the entrance to
the brooder house. This mat can
be made by filling a square box
with gunny sacks in some reliable
disinfectant.
—Isolate all birds from the poul-
try flock as soon as they show
symptoms of disease, Then decide
what method of treatment to fol-
low.
—Many turkeys are graded as
number two or thrown out entirely
because of failure to starve them
out \properly before dressing.
—Small eggs produce small chicks,
and these should not be incubated.
Eggs uneven in shape are not suit-
able, nor are extremely long and
very short round eggs.
—The practice of reproducing the
flock with eggs laid by hens insures
a better quality chick than breeding
from pullets.
—Red mites may cause a drop in
egg production. A satisfactory
treatment for the pests is to paint
the roosts and roosting cabinet with
carbolineum.
—In commercial poultry plants
where fowls are kept in quite large
numbers the artificial lighting of the
houses, morning and evening, proves
profitable during the winter.

—Old lawns should be gone over
carefully at this time. Unsightly de-
pressions which cannot be removed
by rolling can be eliminated by lift-
ing the sod, filling with good soil,
and replacing the sod. Where this
is impracticable, fine loam can be
spread over the lawn to a depth of
three inches. The existing grass
win force its way through the new
soil.
—Every light bulb which cai be
seen by the eye should be of the
frosted type to cut down glare
Every light should have some kind
of a shade to protect the eyes and
also to reflect the light down where
it is wanted, Great irritation to
the eyes is caused by unshaded
clear bulbs. pr :

tioner when it can be evoided?

acres of early vegetables. It is

—TYellow corn is especially valu-
able for winter feeding on account
of its fattening qualities and vita-
mine content. If possible, at least
half of the grain feed should be
yellow corn. If white corn, wheat,
kafir, or other farm grains are fed
instead of yellow corn, alfalfa should
be added to the rations to help
supply vitamines. Alfalfa leaves or
alfalfa meal will replace the vita-
| mines of yellow corn if the Iatter
is not available. The winter ration
must contain protein..
—Nevada is building up a solid
turkey producing industry ina Iogic-
;al way, in the opinion of H. L.
Shrader, extension poultry specialist
of the United States Department of
Agriculture.
—Two of the best feeds for tur-
keys are milk and alfalfa, and
these, Shrader said, being produced
on the farm with the turkeys, af-
ford good feed at a low cost. With
such small flocks, he said, the farm
wife can take care of a good share
of the work, thus cutting costs, as
otherwise extra labor might have
to be hired.
The outlook for expansion in the
industry in Nevada is good, the
specialist stated. Nevada condi-
tions, he believes, are well suited to
turkey production.
“Turkeys and chickens should
never be run together,” he declared,
explaining that parasites, little
harmful to chickens, but deadly to
the bronze birds, are carried by the
chickens. Turkeys should be kept
far from the farmhouse, he believes.
Sanitation is another means of
keeping turkeys disease-free, he
stated,
