THE PACIFIC
THE RED CROSS SOCIETY

The objects of the Red Cross Society
are clearly set forth in another
column. Men who have satisfactorily
passed the physical examinations for
army service, are liable to be temper
arily disabled. Change of diet, the
crowded condition of the transport
ships, develop latent troubles and
weakness.
Investigations made last week,
showed that a number of enlisted men
were unable to join their comrades
on shore owing to temporary disabi-
lily. 1t touched the hearts of good
women to see their patience and resig-
nation in enduring the inconvenience
of a soldiers quarters on a transport
In spite of the vast number of men
who have volunteered to carry rifles
in the war, it is authoritatively said,
that few male nurses volunteer and
the demand for them has not been
met. The war Samaritans do not
face artillery or rifles, and take little
or none of the popular glory.
The Red Cross Society here is not
a hysterical affair, but the outcome of
last weeks experiences. 1t proposes
in a quiet way to make glad the hearts
of those who are temporarily disabled,
and cannot join their comrades under
the palms.

Secretary Edwards Warm In Praise OF Cat

Cattle DIpped In Oil,

Secretary Il. j. Edwards of the Live
Stock Sanitary commission is decidedly
enthusiastic over the experiment of
dipping cattle in oil to remove fever
ticks, the first operation being con-
ducted October 22 at Noble under the
supervision of DIR. Lewis and Mr.. Ed
wards. Sixty-four head of Texas steers
were dipped to test the efficacy of the
brand of oil known as extra dynamo
now used in the cattle dipping vats in
Oklahoma for the destruction of fever
ticks. The cattle dipped on the above
date were alive with ticks when they
were driven through shute and fell
from trap info the oil vat which was
filed with FIVE feet of oil. The cattle
usually fell in head first, going com
pletely under, rising 10 the top and
swimming to the far end of the vat,
where they could walk out on an in
cline on which they were held for n
short time to allow the oil to drip from
their coats. The dynamo oil used con-
tains sulphur and other chemicals
which, combined, have the power of
destroying the ticks without injuring
the eyes, skin or hair of the animals
immersed in it. Ali the cattle passed
through the immersion without acci-
cident and emerged in good shape. At
ter immersion the cattle were driven
to feeding lots about 10 miles from
Noble where they will be kept unde.
the observation of DIR. Lewis. The oil
usually destroys the ticks within "a
hours. Cattle will be dipped as fast as
they are presented. After cattle are
dipped they may be shipped to any
part of the territory.

The remorse of guilty stomach is what
large majority of the people are suffering
with to-day. Dyspepsia is characteristic
American disease and it is frequently stated
that eve are nation of dyspeptics"
Improper food, hurried eating, mental
worry, exhaustion; any of these produce a
lack of vitality in the system by causing the
blood to lose its life sustaining elements.
The blood is the vital element in our lives
and should be carefully nurtured. Restore
the blood to its proper condition, dyspepsia
will vanish and good health follow.
