Conservation in Court.

Another popular case has been ar. rested and dragged before the courts. It's conservation, and the question is:
 Is Uncle Sam sovereign of the public domain. with it's timber, water and minerals, or only the private proprietor? If the latter, then perhaps the national conserva. ton policy must give way to the ideas of the state of Guggenheim- beg pardon. Colorado.
 Some years ago, we had trouble with England over Venezuela, and Richard Olney, then Secretary of State. made this striking remark:
 THE UNITED STATES IS SOY. EREIGN ON THIS CONTINENT AND ITS FIAT IS LAW"
 That went" with England, but it won't with Colorado. Southwest America.

Why Smotherl

Why is it that people are so afraid of fresh air in the winter? Dr.. w. s. Wheeler, city health commission CT. attributes the prevalence of pneumonia, in large measure, to bad ventilation. Certainly 1t is within the experience of everyone that hot, stuffy rooms are responsible for headache, dullness and other minor ills. To persons who have acquired the fresh air habit the closeness of the rooms of the average house at this time of year is intolerable.
 Modern civilization seems to have lent itself to conspiracy to smother the race in the winter time. In the days of open fires there was fair ven- tiIation up the chimney. Then came the hot air furnace, which helped to overheat the house. The same difii- culty arose with the hot water or steam radiator, and the base burner. All the convenience of modern civili- ration seems to have entered into a conspiracy to diminish the supply of available oxygen.
 The result has been tendency to depress the resisting power of the human system. and to give the wait ing bacteria chance to get busy with colds, bronchitis. pneumonia and what not.
 Happily, under the persistent ham, mering of the doctors. people are beginning to understand that fresh air won't really hurt them: that in fact it may do them good. Almost every person who has had experience in recent years with illness in the family requiring the attention of a competent nurse, has been astonish- ed at the reckless way the windows in the sick room were Kept open, even in the severest weather. The patient wasn't allowed to feel chilly. Perhaps he had to wear hood, and it may have been necessary to keep a fire going in the room to prevent the temperature from falling too low. But in any event he was supplied with plenty of outdoor air.
 Dr. Woods Hutchinson has gone to the extreme of insisting that people do not take colds from sitting in drafts, so strongly has he been em- phasizing the need of air, and phy- slcians have been quoted as saying they would prefer to take chances with pneumonia case under an um- brella out of doors in midwinter rather than in stutfy house. But It isn't necessary to go to unwarrant- cd extremes in recognizing the fact that people were made to live in the air. and that they don't give them selves a fair chance if they shut themselves off from it's life giving properties.

A Dangerous Remedy.

If prices are low don't plant your crop. Just go out of business for a year or so. Let the public consume fast years surplus. Let them suffer enough. and then they will howl for more and pay the price, too.
 That's the logic of the growers of White Burley tobacco, 100000 of them in Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana. And it's not so bad for them, provid- ed they diversity their crops and raise something to eat and to sell in their home markets.
 But as a remedy for low prices generally the proposition to stop production until the world begins to starve. then to squeeze the public for all it will bear, is about as unjust and unscientIfic as anything that could be devised.
 And an economic system that can do no better than that is booked for important changes in the early fu- ture. Southwest American.

Why They Don't Marry.

It's the business of sociologists to worry about the rest of us, and an eminent Italian sociologist has been lying awake nights trying to find out why pee pie don't get married as generally as they used to. And he makes out pretty hard case. too. It seems that aversion to marriage, now seen in every country, began with the rich and fashionable and gradually spread among those less well-off. And it is due to these con- ditions:
 Growth of luxury and self-indul- gence, which is so costly that it's as much as a man can do to provide for himself.
 Increased cost of living even for those who are satisfied to live with out much luxury.
 Growing economic independence of women. so that they dent have to marry for home and support.
 Amusements and satisfactions of life, particularly in cities, which eclipse the traditional happiness of the home.
 Finally, people of opposite sexes are not so mutually attractive to each other as when the world was younger
 Therefore" concludes the soci- ologist. Tin proportion as civilization and refinement increases in a coun- try marriages decrease.
 Mebbe so, but our guess is differ ent. Race suicide and decreasing marriages are only passing phases of the one great economic problem how to divide the resources of the earth and the earnings of industry n such way that everybody shall have the means of decent existence, plus reasonable amount of those "amusements and satisfactions of lite. i" of which the Italian observer speaks. And that problem will be solved. Southwest American.

earn their living with their hands rather than with their wits"

| ratnPT l1dfl Wlln tuclI Wito.
 "Seventy-fve men, not one of whom knew how to do useful things with his hands when imprisoned, now are cutting stone to trim the prison buildings. While 1 have been at the head of the prison one hundred men have gone out from this work into good jobs. Only week ago l re- ceived a letter from two Indians, who formerly knew nothing except horsestealing. They wrote to thank the authorities for teaching them honest labor. They are running a stone yard down in Oklahoma, and at the top of their letterhead is the cut of bank building for which they cut the stone.
 "The deepest feeling of helpless ness and hopelessness cones not when a man is arrested, or sent enced, or imprisoned. but when he is freed. The arrangement of par oles by the prisons is nearest to solv- ing the problem of redeeming the criminal for the world. To put him in line of honest work before his full time has expired, and test him, so he can be prepared to drop back into life without 8 shock, is our scheme. This means an indetermin- ate sentence, and care and conserv- atism are greatly required to pre- vent abuse.
 "To put prisoners on the road to improvement there is nothing like healthful, steady and productive work. good clean food, cleanli- ness and study. The day of striped clothes is over, except in the case of incorrigibles. Of the 1925 prison CTS in Leavenworth, only ten, who tried to escape. wear stripes. The men are clothed in gray at first, and as they become trusties, in blue. To breed confidence in them, we show confidence, going on the principle that if they are treated properly they will come to deserve it."

Food, air. sunlight, exercise, rest. correct mental attitude, cleanliness and all other common sense aids to health, the osteopath con- siders of vast importance; but the dis tinctive feature of osteopathy is this: Mechanical order in the body; perfect nerve and blood supply mean health. Mechanical disorder. imperfect nerve innervation and poor blood supply mean disease
 We take it, however, that osteopa- thic theories are of but little interest to sick people. The most important question to them--and they are the only ones vitally interested. is, will osteopathy aid me in getting wcl2 Do cures follow treatment or course Of treatments7 No one capable of think ing fairly can withhold approval for a system that is now and has been for nearly twenty years, curing high percentage of it's cases. The record is wonderful one when we remember that most of these cases are those which have been pronounced incurable before resorting to osteopathy. What is osteopathy doing right now? What has 1t been doing? These, 1 suppose are the questions the people wish to have answered.
 Hundreds of cases of asthma have been cured. Most of the cases of rheumatism. no matter how long stand- ing, are either cured or benefited. Many cases of paralysis have yielded to the treatment when there seemed no chance of d cure. lnnumerable cases of chronic constipation and chronic diarrhoea and dysentery have been cured. Spinal curvatures and other disorders are almost always handled in satisfactory manner. ln- numerable cases of nervous prostra- ton have been cured or benefited About two-thirds of the epileptics who have tried osteopathy are well. Bright's disease, unless the patient waits too long, yields certainly to os- teopathic treatment. In short. there are but few diseases. especially the chronic diseases, that have not been successfully treated by the osteopaths. One of the greatest recommendations to this method is that it is tonic and constructive, not destructive. Run down, overworked business men; weak facilitated people who have no defi- nite disease. are always helped. And the help one gets from osteopathy. let it be understood. is not artificial stimulation. but good. honest strength. Osteopathy stands for growth and the osteopath makes each part of the body do it's own work just as nature intend ed.
