One is an increase in the | | number of dairy cows. The other is the culling out of | “boarder” cows, and their replacement by cows of larger milk production. The slump in butter prices is not whol- ly due to larger butter production; it is partly due to a! greater use of butter substitutes. Yet the increase in| butter production:has played its part in reducing the in- dividual farmer's income from this source. The department of agriculture still urges farmers to eliminate their poor cows, and that advice is always good. | = Through the cow-testing associations it is possible to i learn accurately when a dairy cow has become a liability. i By eliminating every such animal, the farmer increases his net income. He can produce an equal amount of butterfat from fewer cows, with less feed consumption. If he keeps the same number of cows, his production will increase. Losses might be turned into profits. It is evident that the dairy farmer, collectively, has made a mistake by increasing his herds in number, as well as improving their quality. Government figures shows ah increase of 1.9 per cent in Minnesota last year jin the number of dairy cows, but Minnesota's milk pro- duction increased 4.5 per cent. Wisconsin increased its dairy cows three per cent, and the average for eight northwestern states was 2.4 per cent, with a national in- crease of 2.6 per cent.- Experts say that an annual in- crease of one per cent is all that is necessary to keep up with intreasing demand. It the average yield per cow is to be increased by cull- ing and better breeding, then no increase in the number of cows is needed at all. Obviously, the farmer who quits » like any other industry, can be overdone. It is always wise to ull out the “boarder” cows. But when production passes demand, it may not be co wise'to fill svith cffictent cows, all the gaps made in the hord through these eliminations its height. : Snow fell to a depth of three feet ‘ation expeditions, isolated camps and settle-|over the Atlantic states and New ments, and prisons bear out the well-known fact that a | England and was drifted by gales of wind into drifts of five, 10, and 20/ to {feet decp.

ULCERS OF THE STOMACH AND DUODENUM Ulcers of the stomach and duo- denum do not heal as rapidly ulcers in other parts of the body be- cause of being subject to the action of the digestive juices. An ulcer of this sort may be caused by anything which will weaken the protective mucous surface-lining, and allow the powerful juices to actually penetrate into the muscular tissue. Seventy-five per cent of stomach ulcers are located in the small area toward the pyloric end of the stomach and the upper and back walls. In ulcer, of the duodenunr, the ulcer is usually located in the first inch and a half in at least ninety-five per cent of the cases. The of an ulcer may vary from a pinhi to quite a large surface. It may occur in sev- eral places, although usually only one place is ulcerated at a time. At first, the ulcer involves only the: under mucous membrane or the mucous tissue, but as it deepens it affects the muscular wall and may even penetrate through this. Where the ulcers have been in development for some time, adhesions or scar tissue result from the continued inflamma- tion, and sometimes the stomach will become adherent to adjacent surfaces, Such as the pancreas, the small in- IN REGARD TO HEALTH WHO ‘ADDRESSED IN OF ENCLOSE pt} eohesceo venoee FOR REPLY.

Sometimes by wear- ing a comfortably fitting support the patient will feel mere like walking and exercising due to the fact that all of the organs in the kidney section will be firmly supported, but it is very difficult to use a support with enough pressure to raise the organs. The cure for prolapsed kidney depends entirely upon exercising the abdom- inal and back muscles so as to pro- duce your own natural muscular cor set which will encourage the kidney to return to a better position. Climate and Health Question: An Onlooker asks: “De you think it is ever necesary for one to go away for one’s health? I know some women who keep their husbands in almost a constant state of bank- ruptcy by always going someplace for their health, but seem to make nc effort while at home to overcome their ailments by way of exercise and Don’t you think a person can get in good health in any climate whether it is in the mountains or by the sea, as long as attention is given to correct diet, exercise, etc?” Answer: You are perfectly right. It_is not necessary to go from one place to another in order to regain health. Of course, it is true that getting away from unhappy environ- ments is often of some help. Many times husbands and wives are so in- compatible that both feel better when away from each other. ° BARBS j ° The New York police department is to publish a magazine.
