While it must be admitted that the deaths attributed
to heart ailments are increasing, the fact remains that
when a person complains of his heart, organic disease
infrequently exists. Organic heart disease causes short-
ness of breath, swelling of hands and feet and a cough.
Usually these signs do not convey to the patient’s mind
even the suggestion that he has heart disease.
So-gmiled functional heart disease is usually traced
- to thee sources, namely, nervousness, infections from
- anouer part of the body such as teeth or tonsils, to a
- diagyned function of the thyroid gland, to influenza and
and to the effects of the excessive use of tobacco,
or tea.
$ In cases where there is a disturbed heart action due
focal infection the source of which is located, the in-
yfective cause when possible is removed, as in the case of
. diseased tonsils and teeth. The heart, possessing remark-
- able recuperative ability, once the poisoning agent is def-
- initely eliminated, in time becomes normal once again.
- Good professional advice and a strict heeding of it
- are the only things to worry about. either in functional
- or organic heart disease. It is a well established fact that
the great number of those who know they have a heart
: condition usually die from some other cause.

SUPPORTING THE INSECTS
-THE largest leak in agricultural productivity is made
by the insects. It is increasing yearly in proportion to
the disappearance of the birds. Even in their greatly re-
sded numbers it has been estimated that the "protect-
0 S birds now reragining consumed during the present
>rop season 35,500 ushels of crop-destroying insects. Each
destroyed would if the birds had not been pres-
odnoonaye—destryed-ere-orop-yegetation than did—the
- birds which thrived on their insect diets, plus a few
- grains of corn and wheat and some "pecked" fruit. There
- fore, the question is all in favor of saving the birds, says
the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, which paper continues:
But a companion effort to that of bird destruction as
- practiced by a careless public would double or triple the

a chance to nose them out for the

The first half was a nip and

five times and the lead changed

STATE TO PAY COUNTY
FOR $20,000 WARRANTS
Dallas, Texas, Feb. 21.—County
here from Auditor John L. Crosthwait said
W L Pct his farm at Philipsburg, Ohio., Tuesday that he and other officials
fulls of insects would be relished exceedingly by the poul-
try on the farms. Turkeys are boll weevils’ most ruthless
enemies. They are busy hunters of grasshoppers. Human
-co-operation with the feathered farm stock would turn
millions of dollars of insect destruction waste into farm
nynfite—ond simple spraying and soil treatment would
practically finish the job
There is nothing more absurd than annually pocket-
• ing a loss of more than a billion dollars through the
: feeding of insects. If the unemployed humans could but
: have access to the food supply that careless farm man-
: agement gives to bugs and insects every year, the relief
: burden would not now be assuming such gig antic propor-
: tions.’ Academic? Not in the least. The California truck
: patches are free from all manner of pests and are kept
- that way by scientific farming methods.
