STATE AGRICULTURAL NOTES,
The plum crop, like peaches, ie a
partial failure, only about 60 per cent.
of a vormal yield being expected In
the slate,
The wet weather has had its eflect
in reducing the screage of potatoes
over what was expected and the con-
dition of the plants is not up to the
average at this time.
The corn is unusually backward and
there has been a decided falling off in
the acreage planted. Cutworms have
given the farmers much trouble in the
ecorn fields,
Bulletin boards at the entrance of
farms are becoming popular with the
ever-growing number of automobiles,
They advertise farm products for sale
and attract many sutoists to a direct
and first hand market.
Erie, Indians and Potter counties re-
port the condition of hay as twelve
per cent, above the average while
Bradford, Butler, Jefferson, Mercer,
Tioga snd Venango counties report
the condition ten per cent. above the
average.
Dairy experts declare that there has
been an improvement of almost fifty
per cent. in the condition of the dairy-
ing cettle of the state during the past
ten years and that farmers are begin-
ning to realize the great advantage of
pure bred or grade cattle.
Encouraging reporta have reached
the Peunsylvania Department of Agri.

the oats, While the acreage ia not as

INFANTILE PARALYSIS
Health vommissioner Dixon Gives Advice
on Disease Which is Exacting Heavy
Toll of Infants at Present,
Infantile Paralysis ls a disease that
affects the nervous system, It often
causes death, and again, the acute
stage frequently subsides and leaves
paralysis of one or more of the limbe
that heretofore has often lasted
through life.
Today we do not know what causes
the disease, therefore preventive
measures must be broad, You must
keep the children away from insect
lite, such as flies, mosquitoes, fleas,
bed buge, ticke, ante, lice, ete. You
should see that all rats and mice
around the building sre killed, Pet
cate and dogs should be washed with
a two per cent carbolie acid solution to
destroy insect life, Everything
should be kept clean about the home,
including the children’s bodies and
clothing.
Children should be fed well but not
indniged in large quantities of water,
ice cream or other frozen dishes on a
full stomach, as that will often cause
acute Indigestion and render them
susceptible to other diseases. fo
other words, the digestion should be
guarded carefully.
Children should bave plenty of
sleep. [Chey should not ssssociate
with other children that are sick.
Their homes should be well ventilated
but screened from flies, ete., and soy
flies that happen to enter the build-
ing should be killed. All foodstufls
should be protected from flies, dus,
Fruit and vegetables eaten raw
should be thoroughly washed in clean
water,
Children’s mouths should be rinsed
out and their throats gargled with De-
bell’s solution after each meal, If the
children sre too young to rinse or
gargle, wash the mouth with a piece of
fabric, muslin or linep, that bas been
dipped in Dobell’s solution.
Children should be kept
crowded places aud be denied
frequent access to crowded
entertainment during our
threat with epidemic.
The youngsters should not be per-
mitted to sit on the damp sround nor
have their bodies thor. ughly chilled,
day or night, They should not bathe
in cold water until their circulation is
interfered with aud they become chilly
and blue,
