PNEUMONIA P Pneumonia causes about one- tentli of all deaths in this part of the world. It stands second on the list of diseases arranged in order of the number of deaths caused, be- ing surpassed only by heart dis- ease, which is a chronic condition permitting some opportunity for curative oi- palliative measures to be employed. The term "pneumonia" includes two chief types of inflammation of the lungs. Broncho-pneumoiiia is more commioii in the very young and the aged. Persons in mid-lie life are more commonly affected with the lobar form. This disease takes a high toll among children under five years old. From the age of five to adol- escence it is relatively uncommon and mild, but beginning with early adult life pneumonia exhibits a steadily increasing severity until in the very old it becomes nearly al- ways fatai. It is strikingly a dis- ease of -the cold months, the sum- mer prevalence -being very low. ‘Pneumonia is a germ disease. Several kinda of bacteria are cap- able of producing it. These same kinds of baterla may be found in tlie ‘mouths, noses and throats of persons who are in perfect health; indeed, some of them are found so commonly tliere as to be regarded as normal inhabitants. Wliy le it that these germs are sometimes ap- parently harmless and at other limes deadly assailants? It has been found that tlie apparently harmless germs taken from the throats of healthy persons are nev- ertlieless very deadly to species of animals whlclrliave feeble powers of resistance. Furthermore, in tlie majority of‘ cases of pneumonia there is found a history oi‘ some ‘condition calculated to weaken the individual. ‘Measles, whooping cough. influ- enza and other acute infections oi‘- len lead to pneumonia by lowering tlie resistance oi tlie patient to the .iliie-ci'l'smivfrlt.ouelltiuiu. "' Rural Organization (C. ‘l. MaeKonile.) As all thlngo are composed of minute particlee and in the union of these particles is etrengthpso with the rural Orzanisation of our province. It is the many activities of the people of a community car- ried on cooperatively that means the success of that particular sec- tion. Therefore since the organizat- ion of these individual faculties make up the aggregate strength of peoples and things, make pos- sible the getting of knowledge and the growth of all the human faculties, it must be conceded that organization is of vital im- portance to all. 0f all the indus- tries that contribute to human welfare, agriculture is without doubt the most important and lie- sides being the most important, it furnishes over ninety percent ‘of the human material, nien and wo- men for all the other industries. From statistics gathered over a long period. it has been proved that the country is practically the seed lbed of our whole population; For instance take the greiit city of London. the immigration of coun- try people yearly would amount to a large city population of them- selves. Again it is a notable fact that the great majority of the leaders in the various walks of life come ’mmediatoly or almost so from ‘he larni. Take for instance the leading merchants, professional "ncn and in fact all tlie leaders of cur tproviiicer-they are either country born or only once reino- vcd from the farm. Then with these facts facing us. I claim that it is well that such ls the case, For the following reasons: First, agriculture with its kindred in- liistrles, fishing and lumbering, have almost a,monopoly of fresh air and sunshine, two things which are of vast importance in tiic ‘building up of a strong man- li-oori and. womanhood. Generally speaking, too, ‘tlie farm. furnishes good. clean, plain food in abund- ance. the importance of which cannot be overlooked. ‘Second: Farm life is essen- tially domestic; that is it requires tho cooperation of all memlbers of the family. In ‘this respect agri- ATGH COLTS lung (By W. H. Goober.) Chance has treousutlr played an important part in the produc- tion of remarkable individuals in the different breeds of horses and cattle. In the horse world no family 113a as much evidence .01 1t l! 1319 Clays. Possibly that is what cans ed it to flash and then fade. _ Cassius M. C-lay owed his elli- tance to the showing made by a catch colt out of his dam. Tho darn of George M. Patclien, the champion stallion of his day. W85 a catch filly and Clay Pilot. the Sire of The Moore. was out of t1 filly or the same kind. Jersey Kate, the grandam of Cassius M Clay, was a fast road mare of unknown breeding. She was used in livery work and was in diemand when any person hall to make a tr'p for which speed and endurance was required- A pair of Canadian stallions were kept in the stable with Jer- sey Kate. They were very stfllflll but dltl not have any speed. Ono of them slipped his halter one night and got Jersey Kate with foal. Her colt wlion I matured showed so much speed on a trot that he soon appeared on the New York tracks under the name of John Anderson. ‘\Vhcn the mvnc-r of Jersey Kate saw what her colt by the Canad- ian potiy was doing in races he bred lit-x to Henry Clay and got the colt nfterwiurtis know as Cassius M. Clay. This horse was a fast trotter for hie day and in blmc got George M. Patchen. whose dam was a catch fill us stated above. The (liilil of George M. Pntchen "had a peculiar inheritance. She vras known as the Carmen mare and was got by a two year old cld called Hcatfem out of a mare which a New York contractor worked in a cart. This work niaro was at tiin-cs turned into a pasture lot near the home of Sanluol Broadliurst. The latter at that time owned tlie American Eclipse flllIc-s Frolic and Itasks. both 01 which were out of tlie noted race mare Betsy Ransom. 1n 1837 ‘Samuel Broadliurat broil Frolic and. ltaska to imported Trvstce. The folowlng year Frolic produced a filly and‘ ltnska a coli culture possibly stands alone; for bacteria already present in ‘his own mucous membranes or those brought to him unwittingly by oth- ers. Severe chilling of the body from sitting in a draught or falling into cold water, i'or example, may affect the circulation of blood ihrougli tlie lungs and permit. the bacteria to gain a foothold there. Breathing in irritating gases dusts may accomplish the same re sult—siicli substances for example as t.lie poisonous gases of warfare, stone and metal dusts in industry, and anaesthetics. The prevention of pneumonia must be based on tlie foregoing ob- servations. Since the germs which cause it are of many kinds and commonly carried by healthy peo- pie. no direct. attack upon tlie bac- teria is practicable except that we should always regard the pneu- monia patient as dangerous to other persons and should disinfect the discharges from his mouth and lnise, and all articles handled or lused by him, at the bedside. This ‘is essential even in hospital wards .ivhere there may be pneumonia cases only, since the infection in isome cases may be of a more se- ‘vere type than in others. i iPrevcntlve measures must be ldlrected against the predisposing tcauses. Do not consider yourself [so hardy that you can afford to sit in cold draughts or dispense with an overcoat on long, cold rides. If such exposure has been un- avoidable, do your best to restore a normal condition of‘ the circula- tion before retiring. A warm drink Inf ten, milk or lemonade, a bath lnntl rub flown, and warm. dry cloth- ing may make tliti difference be- twccn health and an attack of pneu- niozilii. Try to keep youmolf flt 11y the sensible use of food, air, sunlight. work, recreation and sleep. ‘If you are attacked by a fever, go to bed early.

With the farmer. on the other hand. the farm home is the centre of all farm work and there are ample opportunities for all members of the family to co-operate. ‘TllEll with these opportunities it is not strange to note the great advan- tages agriculture possesses over all other occupations for co-opera- -tive education. Third: The varied and season- al character of agricultural work requires a very close touch with nature, and is such that it almost asks us to take the initiative. Is it any wonder then. that when our men went on tlie ‘battlefield of the greait war, that regiments and oven armies recruited from the country. were able to do great- er things than the regulars who hnd been trained for years. Tlius agricultiure develops resourceful- ness in marked contrast with the Trike tiwo rural organization most rgf city work. In these I have only but touched upon the importance of rural life; much more might be said to prove the above assertion, but i: ls enough to say that the country ls the seerlbetl of all.
