That doctors in China are paid for keeping their patients well and that their pay stops when sickness begins has long been a popular belief in Ihj Occident, where it has been accepted as another proof of the Oriental habit of doing things backward a; } cording to our standards. However much or little truth there may be in the tradition, the general principle was the topic of animated debate at f the last meeting of the New York [Academy of Medicine. Modernized it was used as an argument for preventitive doctoring instead of waiting until a disease appeared. The hope was expressed that some day it might become fashionable for people to visit their doctors every quar ter or half year for examination so that danger spots might be located in time and sickness and suffering averted. As it is, as every one knows, the visit to the doctor is the last resort, very much as the visit to the dentist used to be in the days of tooth drawing by brute strength. It is a suggestive thought base 1 on the reputed Chinese custom, as to what benefits might accrue to humanity if all the doctors could be mobilized daily in preventative effort instead of sitting in their offices waiting for victims?of disease, not necessarily of doctors?or motoring Unround on hurry calls at all hours. coTtoITseed ?EXCHANGE FOR MEAL? t See our Mr. W.

"Pray, Mr. Abernethy, what is a cure fol* gout?", was the question oi an indolent and luxurious citizen. ! "Live upon sixpence a day, and earn it," was the cogent reply. | John Abernethy, second son of a Scotch-Irish family, born April a physician of rare discernment, a surgeon of great skill, a lecturer, and teacher of dramatic magnetism, never said a better thing in his life. It is particulraly apt if. this country where the sin of over eating is far more common than th< sin of overdrinking. Gluttony, always a fault, is all the more glaring in a land where a plentiful food supply permits it to be more general. The sallow, fut cheeks, the aching joints and irascible temper of the prosperous over-fed are far too common. Abernethy said to one such, th? Duke of York, by the way, "Cut off th< supplies as the Duke of Wellington did in his campaigns, and the en ?nn will leave the citadel." Diet, however, is really a scriou? matter and many people sufm as much from dietary eccontricit'es and food fads as from actual disease The average individual can ea' good, plain, wholesome food in m idoration all his life without ever being aware that he has a digestive apparatus. Starvation to cure a fancied, ailment or to reduce an expansive waist line has shortened many lives, just as indiscretion in' the opposite direction. Certain diseases do re quire a particular diet but this should be chosen by a physician of1 skill and not self prescribed. The self preseriber often has a fool for a patient. Abernethy was married on January 9, 1800, to a lady whom he met at the house of a patient. A brie 11 courtship was followed by a proposal! by letter giving the lady a fortnight j in which tn irmlro llr? hor min/l I w-*r IIUUU ?iri | deprecating any "dangling." He was1 not as temperate with regard to work as he was to food. He did not even interrupt his lectures for hiwedding, and died at the age of 07 completely worn out, a victim of his gluttony for work. -o FASTURES IMPORTANT IN PORK PRODUCTION l\se of Pastures Enables South to Make Pork More Cheaply Than Can Corn Belt. ???

C.?The nn ount of digestible protein, carbohydrates and fat contained in any commercial feedstuff is the principal factor in fixing the value of that feedstuff. The figures given on the tag attached to a sack of feedstuff arc not a reliable indicator of the real feed nutrients which an animal may obtain from this feed. These tags give the total content of protein, carbonhydrates and fat, but u<? not tell what percentage of each nutrient is digestible. The buyer must get this information elesewherc in order to rightly compare the value of different feeds. As a general rule it is best to buy standard unmixed feeds and mix them to suit the animal to which they are fed. In order to do this a farmer should have some text such as Henry's "Feed 4 and Feeding" for reference to the exact amount of nutrients in each feed.i In buying mixed feeds he should obtain such as are made up of a mixture of standard feeds and the percentage of each feed used should be given. It is then an easy matter to determine the relative value of the feed. The effect of a feed on the digestive system of a cow is important. Constipating feeds such as cottonseed meal, hulls, stover and straw should always be combined with one or more laxative feeds such as wheat bran, silage, roots, and legume hay. The amount of fertilizing con stiluents contained in a feed should aiso he considered. This factor determines the value of the manure resultififc from the use of the feed. About 75 per cent of the fertilizing constituents of feeds are returned to the soil in the manure. In o^her words if cottonseed meal is worth $' 0 a ton as a fertilizer, it may befed to a dairy cow and the manure will contain $22.50 worth of fertiliz ing constituents, in addition to this the farmer has the dairy products by the feed. v TRY IT!

SEVEfit PREPARE IN SPRING FOR POULTRY WORK Pullets For Egg Laying in Fall and Winter Hatched Early WAYS OF USING AN IMPROVED INCUBATOR Development of Nice Fryers in The Early Spring Each Year. The poultry raisers on farm or in city who wishes to produce fall and winter eggs with a by-product of spring "fryers" should begin now to plan for the early settings of eggs, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. In the States of the extreme South settings should be made from the first to the middle of February; in the central group of States, from the (airly part to the last of February; ami in the nortnern tier of States, from the latter part of February to the early part of April. With settings timed on this schedule the ^ / nhinl,o ?.211 h ^ 1 % v.uv^o ?mii iiau'n in ample time to allow their maturity befoie cold weather. The puiiecs from these broods should lay during the late fall or early winter when eggs are scarcest. The setting schedule outlined also will permit the development of early spring "fryers." The young chicks will be developed to the point where they may be turned out on the ground by the time vegetation is out, rnd so many augment their feed with green stuff. The smaller breeds of chickens can be hatchet! later than those which are larger and slower to develop. Incubation. One difficulty in setting eggs in spring at selected dates if the natural system of incubation is followed is in finding broody hens at the proper times. If natural incubation is depended upon exclusively it probably will be best for the poultry raiser to diregard dates and make settings whenevre broody hens are available. A good nest for setting is made of wood, 15 inches square and about 15 inches high, with a top. The front is open excent for a baar/l ? high. Three or four inches of damp earth should be placed in such a nest and on this straw, hay, or chaff should be firmly packed. The hens should be dusted thoroughly with insect powder. It is a good plan, also, to sprinkle a little of the powder in the nests. Using an Incubator. The suggested schedule can be followed exactly if an incubator is used. The machine could be operated in a warm room, preferably a cellar, as a protection against outside temperature changes. It should be disinfected thoroughly before being used, with a solution of a reliable coal-tar disinfectant. Instead of using such a solution a small receptacle containing one-half ounce of permanganate of potash on which one-half ounce of formalin has been poured may be shut up in the incubator. The resulting gas will thoroughly disinfect the machine. After disinfection the inccubator should be run empty for several days to got it into good operating condition. After the g-egs are ?n place the temperature should be held at from 101 1-2 decrees to 102 degrees F. the first week, 102 degrees, to 103 degrees the record week, and ai 103 degrees the third week. The eggs usually art turned for the first time at the end of the secend day and tv\ice daily through the eighteenth or nineteenth day. The eggs are cooled outside the hatching chamber once daily after the seventh :tnd up to the nineteenth day. Moisture should be furnished in artificial incubation in the South, in high altitudes, and when the in ubatoi* room is dry. Thi^ may be done by sprinkling the e^gs with warm water or by placing a wet sponge or pan of water under the egg tray. During the hatching period carefully fill the lamp and trim the wick each day. It is best to trim the wick by scraping off the burnt portion rather than by cutting the wick. The lamp should not be filled entirely. After the lamp is filled it should be closely observed for a time to make sure that th$ flame does not get too high.
