THE FIRST CONCERN.

MIDDLE-AGED MEN PROVE EASIEST
DROWNING VICTIMS
By Dr. Morris Fishbein
Editor, Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association.
We take more care of our
than of our lives.—Seneca.
Health is man's normal condition; he
must do something foolish to lose it.—
James J. Corbett.
Most deaths from drowning occur
from May to August, when swim-
ming is popular. The majority of
cases of drowning occur in men.
Twenty-five per cent of those which
occurred in California in a recent
study of the subject by the Califor-
nia State Department of Health, af-
fected people between the ages of 35
and 54. Relatively few deaths from
drowning occur in people between
the ages of 20 and 34, presumably
because these people are at an age
when they swim fairly well and have
enough vigor to withstand the rigors
of exposure.
Approach of the vacation season
makes it important to emphasize
again the desirability of having
eve e associated with swimming
or with work around water under-
stand the elements of resuscitation.
The procedure is relatively simple.
The unconscious person should be
placed face down, with the head
slightly lower than the feet. Fing-
ers should be put in the mouth to
free it of any mud or other material
that may be in it. One arm
hand of the individual may be put

What is the comparative food
value of raw and cooked cabbage?
Raw cabbage is rich in vitamin C,
which is destroyed by cooking. Raw
cabbage is also more readily digest-
ible than cooked cabbage and less
likely to undergo decomposition
changes in the intestine. Laboratory
experiments show that juice of raw
cabbage is destructive to putrefac-
tive bacteria.
PRISONERS CULTIVATE
GARDENS AT ROCKVIEW
With the distribution of more than
1,000,000 trees and seedlings from
the nursery stock and the planting
of, and preparing for later planting
of more than 100 acres of garden
vegetables, the outdoor activities
upon which many State institutions
and depend to supplement their supplies

for his father as a cabinet maker,

worked for several years in the P.
R. R. shops. It was whil2 working
there that he conceived ideas that
had much to do with his success in
later life. Along about 1888 he
went to St. Louis, Mo., but remain-

on all Pullman cars and many oth-

on the road to financial affluence
and resulted in his retirement at an
early age.
While yet a resideni of Bellefonte,
in 1875, he married Miss Amanda
Galbraith. She died in 1882. After
going to Chicago he married again

divorce and some time later he took

persen to perform artificial respira-
tion can kneel over the body, put-
ting one hand on each side of the
unconscious person, just below the
lower ribs. The movements may be
made in time according to count. At
one, the hands are placed on the
lower ribs, thumbs and fingers to-
gether, wrists about six inches apart;
at two, the operator arises on the
knees and with the arms straight
throws the weight downward and a
little forward, and at the same time
slightly squeezing the hands toward
each other: at three, the hands are
suddenly removed, which permits an
on of the chest; at a count
of four and five, the operator rests
and promptly begins again.
The re procedure takes about
five seconds, which will permit of
approximately 12 artificial respira-
tions a minute. The movement may
be kept up for hours. At the same
time, it is well to keep the drown-
fing person warm, if a blanket is
available, and to encourage circula-
tion by rubbing the legs. A physi-
cian should be secured as soon as
possible. Just as soon as the signs
of consciousness return, warmth and
stimulation are desirable.
There is no necessity for rolling
the drowning person over a barrel,
hanging him up by the feet, orany
other rough treatment that used to
be the vogue before modern artificial
respiration became established. The
two most common criticisms are
that the artificial respiration is car-
ried on for too brief a time (it is
the slightest possibility of resuscita-
tion and the application of the move-
ments too rapidly.
IN DR. KELLOG'S “QUESTION BOX"
IN GOOD HEALTH MAGAZINE THE
FOLLOWING ADVICE IS OFFERED
ABOUT
1. Does chocolate contain a great
deal of good essential food value?
2. Is it a fuel food?
3. Is there anything objectionable
about it?
4. Can a person cultivate an ap-
petite or craving for it?
5. Should it be included in the
food for a baby of twenty-one
months ?
6. Should a baby of this age be
fed chocolate bars, or cocoa?
Answer.—1. No. The chief food
value of chocolate is the sugar
which it contains. This is cane
sugar, which is not the best form of
carbohydrate because of its irritat-
ing properties.
2. Sugar is fuel food.
3. Yes. Chocolate contains theo-
promine and possibly other harmful
substances. The cocoa from which
the chocolate is made is prepared
from the residue left er ex-
iraction of cocoa butter, which
s largely used for the coating of
»andies. The manufacturers of cocoa
sutter have found difficulty in dis-
sosing of this by-product, which is
greatly in excess of Lhe require-
nents of the cocoa and chocolate

srnment bulletin, the manufacturers

-esidues, they have induced farmers
o make use of it for the feeding of
lairy cattle. They have also suc-
ceded in including a number of
oultrymen to rake use of it. Quan-
ities have also been sold to farmers

The State penitentiary.
The nursery at the Rockview in-
stitution is extensive and in April
of this year shipped 1,268,553 units
of stock which were divided as fol-
lows: Trees to reforestation, 1,263,-
250; shade trees, 2152; ornamentals,
1785; and shrubbery, 1366. This
shipment virtually completed all or-
ders to the Rockview nursery this
year, with the exception of orders
from the U. S. Forest Service at
Warren.
With the depletion of the stock
at the nursery seeding and trans-
planting operations began at once
and approximately 11,000 trees were
lined out in nursery rows. Many of
the trees from this institution are
shipped to other States.
To provide a supply of vegetables
for the cannery at the institution
from which State institutions are
supplied with some of their winter
canned goods more than 100 acres
were prepared or planted as follows:
peas, 40 acres; spinach, 5 acres;
beets, 3 acres; cabbage, 4 acres. In
addition to the acres planted, 30
acres were fitteG for the sowing of
peas and 25 acres have been plowed
and fitted for tomatoes, corn @nd
beans.
The operation of the nursery, the
garden and the cannery are conduct-
ed by inmates of the penitentiary
under the direction of officials of the
institution. The entire work is un-
der the direct supervision of the di-
vision of prison labor of the State
Department of Welfare.
