INFANTILE PARALYSIS MAKES ITS APPEARANCE The arance of poliomyelitis, pop- ularly : ealied infantile paralysis in Rhode Island has centered attention of physicians in eastern Connecticut on this disease. The cause of poliomyelitis has been found by Flexner and physicians work- ing with him, to be colonies of globular Dodies; exceedinyy minute germs, much smaller than the diphtheria or tu- bercle bacillus. These globular bodics, the cause of poliomyelitis, have been found in the tonsils and pharynx children. Infection is transmitted by contact with cases or by means or persons who are immune to the disease but are car- riers. Very few persons can catch poliomys litis, which accounts for the difficulty ing tracing the source of infection of cas- es. It would seem from studies of out- breaks and epidemics that the polio- myeiitis germ carrier plays an exceed- ingly important role in the spread of this disease. Persons who spread poliomylelitis are: Poliomyelitis carriers. Mild cases, the so-called obortive type. These cases do not become paralyzed but have many symptoms of the disease and are often overlooked. Paralyzed cases. Polio myelitis nervous system, the spinal cord. The disease develops in 3 to 10 days after receiving the infection. Before paralysis appears the symptoms usual- ly seen are some combination, including fever drowsiness, irritability, constipa- tions, twitchings and gastro-intestinal symptoms. A stiff neck or back and a tenderness on handling often exists. Ir- ritability in a child Il with fever on be- ing awakened is common in poliomye- litis cases. Prevention and Treatment—Isolation of all definite cases of poliomyelitis. Isolate all persons who have been in close contact with cases. During an outbreak in a community children with marked constipation and and fever should be watched as “sus- pects.” Y Parents should not allow their children to play with others who have an un- diagnosed illness. In the acute stage of poliomyelitis it is essential that the patient has abso- lute rest in bed. This should continue for a few weeks under the care and ad- vice of a physician. is a disease of the affecting particularly COUNTY FARM BUREAU PROTESTS DUTY ON POTASH Senator George P.

On the motion of Comp- troller Bissell, action on the requests was postponed until the next meeting of the board which will be in S=ptember.

The superiority of the capon over | roasting chickens has been recognized by all who have tasted the delicate flesh of a capon. In order to caponize suc- | cesstully the birds should be deprived of food for about 36 hours before being ca- ponized. The operation consists of mak- ing an incislon between the last two ribs nearest the hip. The inner mem- branes are removed thus exposing the organs to be removed. After the tes- fles have been removed the bird should with a soft mash for three or four days or until all danger of wind puffs age ne- ticed the gas should be let out by mak- ing an incision in the outer skin. It is the bird has been caponized.
