Sixty-nine dead bodies have thus far been recovered and the names of 150 missing have been reported as unaccounted for. Itis barely possible that some of these had succeeded in cros- sing the pass before the avalanche occurs red. A conservative estimate is that bet- ween 75 and 100 persons were killed. a> ee — HEALTH ON THE FARM. The following extract from an addrees by Mr. G.C. Creelman we clip from Farming for March: Being now engaged in the insurance business, 1 come across printed proceed- ings Of meetings of insurerce inspectore and medical men who are ivterested in the $40.00 | work of inturance. In a liet of what they ) considered the best risks for life insurance, | | was very much surprised to tind that they placed the farmer very low on the list. We hear at all times the claim made that his profession is the most independent of all and the healthiest. T bave heard that since I was large enough to hear. Enter- ing into discussion with a physicias, he explained why he considered farmers not as good *isks as others. He said: 1. That the farmer paid too little atten. tion to the sanitary condition of the house. They had low rooms without half enough air. 2. Their rooms are very poorly ventilat- ed ; the windows are low and small, and often placed directly opposite the door; when open there was a draugh; when be ~~ - Io many cases the farm bu‘ldings were situated to close too the house. Nearly al] cases of fever, especially of typhoid fever, could be tr aced to the influence of streams coming from the stables. In case of sickness the patient was frequen:ly put into the smaliest room, and the room ott the kitchen where it waa supposed to be the warmest. In this way they eelect the poorest room in the house. It would be better to go upstairs. By putting the patient in the little room off the kitchen the disease would have the very bea: chance of killing the farmer. The house is Often ioo @mail. There are sometimes two or three in the same room, ard fre- quently in the same bed. People that live in the city or town, although they have rent to pay, never think of crowding, Farmers should have some sort of en- joyment to change the routine of life, aod break the monotony. Movotomy was one of the conditions under which even healthy people did not thrive well. There should be enjoyment on the farm in the evening. E-pevially tho-e whe have been at the coliege where they have seen things as they shouid be, should look into the sanitary conditions of their homes very carefully. Weknow how to tile- drain our land and how to ventilate our buildings properly. The outer buildiogs should ‘bea good distance from che house. Some farmers in the Southern £a@ are going to the trouble of putting up a cover ed roof from the barn to the house before they will put up with the unhealthy con- dition of the fartuhouse by its being situated close to the stable. It will be a surprise to many to learn that the farmer is very low on she liat of those whoare cousidered to be the beat risks for life insurance, This condition of things is largely due to themselves. They have, in many instances, completely igaored the laws relating to sanivary cone ditions, with the result that today the farmer, instead of being classed amoung the best life insurance risks, is down low in the scale. This is something that every farmer should consider, not because it is aecessary tO securea better position among insuranee risks, but because he owes it to himself and to bis family to provide J} euch conditions on the farm as will be conducive to good health and freedom from disease ; . i ADDRESS AND PRESENTATION. closed no good means of ventilation éould j j= | A On the afternoon cf March 31st, Mr J A McLelian severed bis connection withthe St. Margare’’s schuol and the teaching pro- fession, and,on that date the rate payers met iu the schooiroom and presented him with an sff-ctionate address and a beautiful meerschaum pipe.
