RESPONSIBILITY
AND MALARIA

Every man in Florida who permits
himself to have an attack of malaria,
is to a certain degree, an offender
against the public. True, it is not
felony, not even misdemeanor un-
der the law, but it is an offence be-
cause it is ayoidable with proper rea-
sonable precautions, and 1t endangers
the health and comfort of all others
in the community.
More than this, with the proper
care of malarial cases, their treat
ment under screens to prevent the
anopheles, the malaria carrying mos
quitoes, from becoming innoculated,
the disease would soon be reduced
would die out Of itself. Then it could
be reintroduced only by Importation
from other sections.
The same is true of some other
diseases, and it may be illustrated
by the matter of the tick in cattle.
When this bovine infliction is so re-
duced that FIVE per cent of less of the
cattle in a given section are afflicted
with it, the disease will die out with
out the aid of man or the dipping
vat.
Malaria is a direct result of the neg
lect of known and proven knowledge
and the disregard of good, sound
medical advice. For malaria is car
ried from one human being to another
by this particular mosquito, and in no
other way. This is the only means of
communicating it. 1t can come only
from a person afflicted with it, If the
only possibly source be removed, the
disease must vanish. If there were
no cases of malaria in the communi-
ty, it could not be carried and the
mosquito would cease to be danger

A RULE THAT DON'T WORK 5OTH
WAYS

The members of the interstate rail-
way commission must be poor mathe.
maticians. They have adopted rules
that do not work the same backwards
and forwards. For instance the price
on car of truck going from Florida
to Chicago is 1926. On the same car
Of truck coming from Chicago to
Florida over the identical route is only
$5432
We quote from the testimony of Mr..
Edward r. Davies, Chicago consig.
nee, before that august tribunal:
"A shipment of 400 hampers of let
tuce," he said, would cost $54.32 to
send from Chicago to Jacksonville.
Fla. 1t would cost 1926 to send them
from Jacksonville to Chicago. The
same shipment from Chicago to New
Orleans would cost S43. From New
Orleans to Chicago, it would cost
$3.50"
If President Wilson wants to do
real service to the south he can not
too speedily fire that tribunal, and
fill it, if not with southern men, at
least with men that will have some
sympathy with southern shippers.
Just how any set of men having due
regard for their oaths to do equal and
exact justice can tolerate for mo-
ment these inequalities is beyond our
conceptions of right and wrong.

experience, orange groves, especial Y
those in Florida, are not profitable

is owing partially at least to tht
necessity for applying fertilizer free

Spring COlonist Rates.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 31.-Railroads
in the northwest are beginning to
advertise the spring colonist rates
which will be in effect for 32 days
beginning with March Is. The rates
will be the same as in former seas
ons, $33 from Chicago, $50 from Mis-
souri, river points and $25 from the
Colorado region. Although the re-
duced rates will be advertised to a
considerable extent, the roads state
they will make no special effort to
induce organized parties of homeseek-
ers to come west. They state that
heretofore the low rates have been
taken advantage of by wage-earners,
principally, and that but few bona
fide homeseekcrs are generally in
cluded in the large parties that come
out each spring and fall. Genuine
would-be settlers will come at any
time of the year without waiting for
special rates.

of the Medford Sun is timely sug-
gestion:
"It is generally conceded that the
Rogue River Valley ie an ideal chick
en- country, and as generally conceded
that taken as q whole there is at
present no money in the chicken busi-
ness.
"The reason is lack o. organiza-
tion, cooperation and united effort.
The chicken business should be or
ganized upon a cooperative basis.
There should be cooperation in buy
ing supplies, in exchanging ideas and
theories, in marketing and sales. In
stead of working separately, the
chicken men should work together.
THE Rogue River Valley is fast
coming into its own as a diversified
farming center. But we still Sail to
produce enough eggs for our own con-
sumption.
Such debit balance OF trade is
as deplorable as. it is unnecessary

ity but materially benefit themselves

to establish the poultry and egg bust
ness as = permanent and profitable
