A soft answer sometimes provokesl
wrath when it is too soft. :
The Farmer's Heaith|
J. A. JOHNSON .
Despite the fact that a man’s health
is™his biggest asset many are seem
ingly careless in the remembrance of
this truth. We -ought to endeavor in
every way possible to bring about cons '
ditions that will insure to us the best
health a section can afford. In ord_gr
that greater haste may be made along
the line that ought to concern us most
vitally, we need to -cultivate being .
more receptive and open-minded A'to
truths. Despite the fact that the rep
resentatives of the great -science of
medicine have said over and over that
malaria is put into one’s system and
carried from one individual to another
by a certain species of }posquito, and
that typhoid fever is transmitted By -
flies; that homes ought to be screened
for comfort, if for nothing else, foo
many make no preparations to avoid
these maladies and to get the comfort
along with better “irealth. It ought
to be our eternal “slezan” to eliminate
as nearly as possible flies from the
kitchen and dining rooms and mosqui
toes from the bedroom. Ili would be
well to remembe? every hour, ‘“that
an ounce of prevention is worth a
peund, and perhaps a ton of cure.”
A great many are doing these things
all along. One good farmer in this
county has said that his medical bill,
since he screened his home, has been
almost nothing as compared with the
amount before. He was induced to
do this timely thing through hearing
one of the local physicians ‘talk on
the subject of “flies and‘ mosquitoes
and the necesgity for screening .homes’ |
at one of the rural schools. Not a
few good farmers have been lieard to
say this summer since screening that
ithey do not now understand how they
got alo gnwithout screened homes.
It will not be out of place to give you
a few extracts from a report made by
a member of the State Board of Health
and a representative of the state so
ciety for the Preventation of Tuber
culosis of a prosperous farming coun
ty in Illinois, where land values vary
from ninety to two hundred and fifty
dollars an acre, where everybody in
the county speaks English, sends the
children to school, attends church, and
reads the papers and talks politics.
The report states that a large pro
portion of this county live in what is
called “close qudrters.” The average
house has from fou:r to eight rooms;
the occupants usually number from
four to twelve in each house. The re-.
port continues with the statement that
the average city man thinks that the
farmer has pleny of home-grown milk,
butter, eggs, meat, home-made bread
and vegetables. It was found that
the dietary of seventy-five per cent.
of the people of this county were lack
ing in these products®’ Although no
one was found actually hungry, there
was a Jarge number of unnourished
and sallow looking people. It is stat
ed that in only a few cases was pov
erty a cause for this condition.
The water supply on the farms was
cnly fair, more cisterns being used
there than wells. Unsanitary outhous
es were, prevalent. Of the 119 exam
ined only four were fairly decent.
Most of them were made without
vaults, the contents remaining on the
surface of the ground and exposed at
'lhe rear of the huildings. In not a sin
gle case was provision made to keep
out flies. i 3
Epidemics are frequent in this coun
ty. Typhoid and measles have heen
moest frequent, or something akin to
it, affects a large number of the peo
ple. Many folks just dragging around,
as they say: Calomei and quinine are
taken without prescription, and patent
medicines were found to an alarming
extent in nearly every home.
The report closes by saying that it
is to be hoped that the county under
discussion is not typical of the country
at large.
If we have some similar conditions
here in our county, let’s go to work
to put into operation things. that will
make for better rural health, and thus
usher in what we all most desire—a
healthful, happy, contented and pros
perous populdtion.
