IS YOUR CHILD HANDICAPPED T
Does your child's nose run or is
It sorq? Does the child snuffle ?'
Are the eyes redT Are there fe-
ver sores or eczma around the nose
and mouth?
Does the child seem dull? Does it
stand and look at you with open
mouth?
Does it put its hand to its head as
though it had earache? Does it take
•cold easily?
Does the child sleep with its mouth
open? Does it snore?
If the onswer to any of these is
Yes, ask the doctor if the child has
adenoids or tonsils.
TONSILS.
Tonsils often become diseased and
stick out in the throat; Some times
they do npt get any large* but be-
come diseased and contain little cups
filled with infection. These diseased
tonsils often hold poisonous germs
which may cause throat trouble or
may be carried to other parts of the
body and cause sickness.
ADENOIDS. I
Adenoids look likj a little head of
cauliflower, colored red. They grow
in the bacR part of the throat where
the nose and throat join, and can be
seen only by the doctor with a spe-
cial mirror. They stop up th nose and
fnake the child breathe through its
mouth.
When the child breathes through its
mouth, much dust and many germs
get into the body.
Adenods should always be re
moved.
EARACHE.
Earache often means that the child
has gdenoids. Earache always means
that the child is in danger -of getting
deaf. Also the child is in danger of
getting a running ear and there is
danger of the disease reaching the*
brain. A running ear should always
be treated by an ear doctor, it will
not get well without good care.
LARGE GLANDS.
Often poison gathers in the nose,
throat or ears. The glands of the
nose try to carry this poison away.
This overwork makes the glands en-
large and lumps often form.
the cotton crop in many parts
of the country is causing the
cotton farmers and merchants
much uneasiness. Where farm-
ers have made cotton the sole
crop there is much need for
alarm, for a cotton failure for
most of them means either
that they will have to go into
debt another year or suffer for
the lack of those things they
could as well have raised on
their farms. If this condition
were unusual t.h e farmers
would deserve much more
sympathy, but in some parts of
Texas every year the cotton
crop is disappointing, and it
may be expected anywhere any
year. So long as the seasons
are variable this will be true
and the farmers should profit
by this knowledge. In no coun-
ty in Texas can farmers de-
pend on making a full cotton
cVop every year. '
room and bed rooms attractive
and comfortable. A number of
them told how they worked to
make the money with which
they added a few attractive
pieces of furniture or how they
worked over old furniture and
painted it in bright colors, ho v
they curtained the windows,
made pretty rugs and added a
touch here and there to make
their rooms liveable and pretty.
One young girl exhibited her
bed furniture and explained,
how she had treated or acquir-
ed each piece. The surprising
thing was that the cost was so
small and yet the transformu-
tlon^rom a dingy to a pretty
room was brought about almost
as if by magic.
THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER.
'Newspapers are not publish-
ed from philanthropic motives,
I but many of the country pub-
lishers are often tempted to be-
lieve that most of the people in
the community in which their
lot is cast have this opinion of
them. They are asked to grind
everybody’s ax and they do so
most patiently and willingly,
provided no one is injured by
the grinding. The local news-
paper is expected to know ev-
erything that is going on and to
present the local news fully
and attractively. It must be
wideawake and progressive,
vigilant for the advancement of
the material progress of the lo-
cality, be on the lookout for
helpful projects, and be ready
’n season and out of season to
exploit the industrial, agricul-
tural and social advantages of
the section with which it is

wives and daughters of Texas

OTHER DISEASES.
Diseased tonsils and adenoids hold
poisonous germs Which frequently are
carried to other parts of the body and
-cause sickness. Rheumatism and
- *
heart disease often come in this way.
These germs also cause stomach,
bowel or lung, diseases.
- A child with adenoids and diseas-
ed tonsils can get diptheria, scarlet
fever, measles and whooping cough
very easily. Such a child will have
the disease worse than a child who
~has had adenoids and diseased tonsils
removed.

made healthy and normal by the re-
moval of diseased tonsils and ade-
noids.
It is wrong to blame children for
made every season the farmers
should not grow cotton to the
exclusion of other crops, for it
is the poorest business policy
to exchange cotton year after
year for food and feedstuff's
that can be grown at home.
Where cotton failure may be
expected now and then, as it
may be in every County in Tex'
as, farmers owe it to themselves
and their families to at least
make certain of a living at
home for themselves and their
stock, aside from their cotton
crop. There is not a farm in
Texas on which this cannot be
done if only the farmer will
use ordinary judgment in plant-
ing and caring for a variety of
crops. The poverty of many
farms rich in soil and produc-
tivity but poor in crop distribu-
tion, is everywhere evident.
i
backwardness when they cannot
'hear, see or'smell properly, or are
suffering from pains from diseased
tonsils or adenoids.
NAVE THEM REMOVED.
Adenoid's and diseased tonsils can
be removed at any time of the year.
Don’t watt, thinking they will get bet-'
ter. It Is dangerous. The child may
lose its hearing if you.put it off.
Watch carefully for the danger sig-
nals—mouth breathing and earache.
Always go to a good doctor at
-once.

free and explain in.detail.

Texas farmers will not pros-
per as they should until they
grow, on their own farms all
the foodstuffs needed to run
'their farms except those things
that experience has shown can-
not be produced there. Cotton
will always be the staple money
crop of Texas farmers, but in
time the farmers will learn that
they cannot depend on it as
the sole crop. Those farmei-s
who have already learned this
lesson and have their barns and
pantry filled, are not losing
il4jep over the possibility of a
failure of the cotton crop.

BOY’S ESSAY ON GIRLS
The girls are the sister of the
boy and has long hair, wears
dresses an’ . powder an’ are
stuck on actor men. The first
girl was called Christmas Eve.
Most every family has a girl
and some of the unlucky ones
has two or three. We have a
girl in our family and she is my
sister. She has a beau and my
father, Henery Brown, says he
hopes she’ll fule him into
marryin’ her. My sister has
been twenty-three for four
years, and some day we may be
twins. Fat girls Want to be thin
and vice versa. Ther are three
kinds of girls, brunette girls,
blonde girls and girls that have
money. Girls are afraid of
mice an’ bugs, which makes it
fine to put these little reptiles
down their backs. If I couldn’t
be a boy or a,bull dqg, and had
to be a girl, I would bo in hard
luck, and so would yu.—Gar-
land News.
identified, This work ' it does.
And for so doing it should re-
ceive cordial and substantial
support—a sure incentive to re-
doubled efforts, making the
paper more patent for good in
the community.
Far too often the support iia
only half-heartedly and grudg-
ingly given; the publishor
grows discouraged at the ap-
parent lack of appreciation of
his efforts, he can not afford
the expenditures which are
really necessary to make his
paper what he would like to
have it, and it is said to be run-
ning down, when its decadence
is, in fact, a reflection^ipon the
spirit and progress of the com,-
m unity.
There is po enterprise which
deserves more liberal or con-
siderate treatment at the hands
of the people. The local mer-
chant should use it freely, and
demonstrating that advertise-
ing pays, should willingly pay a
fair price for the returns he re-
ceives. Every citizen should
take and read his local news-
paper and they will find the
whole community quickened in-
to new activity by the impulse
which the local paper will
give. In thiB way the home pa-
per should be made a tower of
strength.—Exchange.
Who will be Miss Texas?
I wish to thank my many
friends in the County for their
votes and support in my race
for County Tax Assessor at the
August 23rd run-off primary. 1
will always feel grateful for
such support.
’ I endeavored to make a
clean race, and though of
course disappointed over the
outcome, I have no malice nor
hatred in my heart toward any-
one who1 did not see fit to give
me their support.
Again thanking my friends.
Arch Anderson.
*>ON’T TRY TO GRAB IT ALL
if you have a nice little farm
j. business, or steady employ-
ment, and are out of debt, do
not fret and work yourself and
wife into the grave for the sake
of making money. You have
but one life to live, and that Is
but brief at best. Take a little
comfort and pleasure as you
go along day by day, and try to
do a little good to others.
Wealth alone will not keep
your memory green after you
are gone to the undiscovered
country, and the cemeteries are
full of people who tried to cor-
ner the American dollar..—Ex.

The most interesting thing
this writer heard at College
Station during the - Farmers’
Short Course was the state
merits made by a number of
farmers’ wives as to how they
had improved their kitchens at process,
small expense to make
work more convenient and
labor-saving. It was interesting
to bear how they managed to
install so many convenient
work-saving devices at - such
small cost and how much easier
work has been made.
