If the people of the t'nlted States spent
as much on bahy welfare work as they
do en the prevention of hog cholera th
lives et more babies would be saved, Dr.
f. 8. Clark told an audience of Omaha
mothers in a lecture at the Hoyd theater
on th subject. "How W Can Prevent
Illness In Children." It was th third of
the morning lectures which are being de
livered by Omaa doctors In connection
with the "Baby Health Week" prosram.
Dr. Clarke asserted that one-fourth Of
all babies born die in their first year and
that half of these deaths are preventable.
He deplored the fact that, in his opinion,
tha amount of money spent on ths health
department, not only here. 'but In prac
tically every city n th Vnlted Statea,
is greatly Inadequate to the needa of th
community.

it behooves you to skin your eyes and approach the matter
with exceeding wariness.
The business of making small, low-priced tractors is
young. But it's popular. More than a hundred concerns
have taken out tractor patents in the last two years.
The infant tractor industry today resembles the infant
automobile industry of a few years ago. Some manufac
turers have rushed into it blindly. Some tractors will do
the work and some will not. Some farmers will suffer.
A man who has no ax to grind has been investigating the
whole tractor situation. He has learned a good deal that
you can profitably learn before you loosen up on your
tractor money. He tells what he learned in a series of
articles The Tractor and the first appears today in
