ENGLISH BIRTH RATE

LEVEL THAT HAS EVER
BEEN ATTAINED
Thy Associated rre.na


LONDON, Sept. 23.-The recent re-
turns on the British infant birth ana
death rate are characterized as DIS
tinetly alarming" by the London Ian
Get.
The continued fall in the birth
rate, which has now reached the low
est level heretofore recorded, may
have many explanations the journal
comments edtorially, but the factor
OF the deliberate limitation OF fami'
lies, whether from provident or selfish
motives, can no longer be ignored
The Lancet says that there has
never been time in England when
employment has been so easy to OBJ
tain and so much money distributed
among the poor by good wages ant
women's separation allowances, ye
these very facts may have contributed
to the increased infant mortality rat
since they have given idle motheri
more money to spend on drink. Epl
demic disease is another factor in rails
ing the rate, owing To the dearth o
doctors and nurses now engaged Il
military hospitals
As for the deliberate limitation q
births, not only the middle and uppe
classes but the working class IN lat
years are held to blame. Even tn
reports about the great numbers {

LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF THE WAR


STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Sept "a
The action of the Swedish govern
ment in prohibiting the export of all
meal canned goods and live stock,
which is now operative, means the
nractical loss to Germany OF Sweden
% source of food supply Certain
minor exceptions will exist, the most
imnortant OF which is fish; and pork
ana bacon can still be exported under
snecial licenses; but the order is as
absolute and inhexible as possible un.

,Sport trade in food is for the time
being. and probably as long as the
war lasts, almost completely at an
end
Although 1t has been common
tnowledge that Germany has been
substantially helped by Sweden in the
matter of food, the extent of this help
has only been revealed by partial
figures which are now available. The
prohibitory order has been for long
lime DELAYED by desire expressed by
the government to first count the
amount Of stock on hand in Sweden
and determine whether il had actually
fallen low enough to make the prohi-
hilton imperative. The results OF this
investigation are startling.
Daring the first year OF the wal
1872 900 cattle have been exported
practically the whole stock going 10
Germany. This Is fully 900 per cent
increase over the ordinary export be
fore the war. During the same length
OF time 100000 hogs, alive or slaush
tered have been sent oul OF Sweden
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1915-09-23

to foreign markets, although in this
case large percentage has gone to
England. The counting of stock
showed that whereas Sweden was ex-
pected to have for home consumption
l,400,00O hogs, she now has on hand
less than half this number The
alarming scarcity of provisions shown
by the investigation, together with
the popular outcry against the high
prices which actually placed the com.
mon necessities OF life beyond the
reach OF the poor consumer, resulted
in the order prohibiting further ex-
port. II is thought that this order
will soon be extended to all food.
Soon after the outbreak OF the war,
thousands of German buyers swarmea
into Sweden, who did what they could
even in the smallest villages, to buy
up all available meat and vegetables
Duly organized and with special cen
trail offices established, where food
accumulated, live stock was slaugh
tered, canned and exported to Ger
many.
AT Landscrona and Malmo, factories
were built and no detail was omitted
in the systematic attempt to make the
export as high as possible. A tenn

10 YEARS BY ELECTRICITY
THEN SHE CHOSE GAS
For thirteen long years Adelaide
Morton sold dress goods in Marshall
Fields fine store. Then her eyes be-
gan to fail. Miss Morton found it
hard to distinguish cOlOrs under the
artificial light in which she spent her
days for 13 years.
So, when she slowed up, Adelaide
was fired and another girl, fresh as
she was when she came to Fields,
took her place behind her counter.
Miss Morton was 38-and a doctor
told her that the eyes would never re-
cover from the long years Of abuse
under electric light. And her money
was going fast.
She tried several of the State st.
stores for another job, but the thick
glasses she had to wear betrayed her
secret and she was refused a chance
to earn a living behind the counter.
Saturday Adelaide had reached the
end. She dragged herself up three
floors to the little room at 1914 North

was found by another roomer.
