SEPTEMBER GARDEN REMINDERS

Feed lawns: Use lawn food to give summer-worn grass new life to go through the winter. Use plant food spreader for uniform results. Follow directions on bag. Water until fall rains take over.

What's NEW in MEDICINE?

New vaccines for children. A vaccine that supplies a simultaneous vaccination against whooping cough, tetanus, and diphtheria has been in use for some time. Now, a new four-in-one vaccine for children under five years of age contains polio vaccine as well. A series of four spaced injections with the new product can be expected to give the same protection that formerly required four shots of the three-way vaccine plus three polio shots. Net saving: three needle-jabs.

The menace of glaucoma

Of all the diseases that flesh is heir to, none carries more fearful respect than those that attack the eyes and threaten vision.
