Do you know that it is impos- sible to contract malaria without first being bitten by a mosquito It's a fact, for mosquitoes alone spread the malarial germ. The mosquito gets in it's deadly work in the dark hours of night, when the weather is hot and the wind oWs are open and the people are longing for a little fresh air. Hundreds of thousands of lives might be saved if more attention were paid to the screening of windows and doors, and especi- ally is this the case where little children are growing up. The time for the mosquito is at hand, put up your screens and save your children.

WHY WE ARE GREAT

Amer1ca IS a great country, and much of that greatness is due to the ability and fearless ness of the people in thinking and acting for themselves.
 We elect our officers for two to four years, and if they don't suit us we kick them out at the end of their terms.
 We have a habit of frankly and insistently telling our public servants what we expect of them and we unblushingly give them to understand that if they do not make good we will have no further use for them.
 Nearly everybody works in this country, and drones are the Isolated exceptions.
 We have no kings or emperors or dukes or counts, for in this country every man is a king in his own right, with more brains than half the crowned heads of Europe.
 Yes, America is a great country and it will always be great so long as we reverence brain and braWn instead of lordlings and tarnished crowns.

Once upon a time a begger, upon beng asked why he did not go to work, replied that he was afraid of work because work killed his wife. And there is food for a world of thought in the tail end of his statement. There are women in this world who know nothing but work, the hardest kind of grinding, nerve racking, death dealing and soul destroying toll. The man finish es his days work and smokes his pipe in peace, but the wife tolls on without cease, washing dishes ironing, mending, slaying until ready to drop. And though but a few short years ago the hus- band solemnly promised to love, cherish and protect that wife, he now appears oblivious to the fact that her life blood is slowly ebb- ing away in toll too heavy for her frail strength. Fortunately such cases are not in the majority, but even minority should not ovIc+

KANSAS CITY MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, July 12, 1915. Cattle advanced 25 to 40 cents last week, beef steers getting the full advance, butcher grades showing the least gain. Stockers and feeders were in light supply, although shipments out were larger than recently, at 6,500 head, prices steady to firm on the best feeders, weak on medium class stuff.
 Receipts today are 13,O00 cat tie, market steady on the best steers (beef), butcher grades and stockers and feeders, but weak to 15 lower on middle class beed steers showing grass. Missouri corn and blue grass steers sold at $9.90 and $10.00 today, Ne braska dry lot steers S9.85, and Greenwood county, K Kansa a S, Wintered steers, grazed since about May ist, sold at $S.7o to $950, Bulk of native steers sell at $8. 60 to S9.75. Eastern order buyers complain that cattle prices are too high on the market here, and some of them are trying to pick up cattle in the country cheaper. In the quarantine div lslon 165 car loads arrived, and sold slowly. Quarantine butch CT grades sold early at steady prices, and when the steer trade opened up, sales were at steady to l5 lower, top prices $9.00, fed steers $7.75 to $9.00, grass steers $50 to $8.25. Some Osage Wintered steers, from territory that was in quarantine last year sold at $8. 50, 1,117 lbs. average. Market authorities insist that we are on the verge of a cattle fam inc, particularly in view of the demands of European countries, now existing and apt to develop in the future. Local packers ex- hibit an extraordinary capacity to dispose of beef, and weak spots in the market are not re- garded as threatening to it's general stable condition.
 The hog market is cratic, order buyers paying strong prices for all the good hogs, $7,30 to $7.50 today, but packers bidding lower, bulk of sales $7.10 to $7. .35 receipts were light at 6,000 head, the slim supply being a rebuke to buyers for the shabby way they have been supporting the market for a week past. Rough heavy soWs are slow sale, a con- siderable accumulation of such selling late last week around $6.90. Receipts last week were 1000 head, nine thousand less than previous week, but almost double the supply a year ago the same week.
 Sheep are holding up well, but lambs are subject to violent re- ductions. The supply today is 6,000 head, including Scars Ariz- ona spring lambs. Seven loads of the Arizona,s, and some na- tive springers, sold early at S9. 25 to $9.35, but the later market f1attened out, and the same class of lambs sold at $8.7 75. Top lambs in chicago today sold around $9. 25, showing that weak mark cts are general. Fat ewes are worth $5.25 to $500, feeding stock very scarce, feeding lambs worth around SIPS.

sssassIf you are feeling peeved and out of sorts, take 8 brisk walk. You will feel better. If your brain is oyer burdened and your mind is sluggish, get in motion again, for your legs are good doctors. A brisk walk exercises the dormant muscles, stimulates the circulation of blood and brightens the mind. It is good for good people and better for the bad ones. It is all to the good.

BERRIES AT EgGHF!Ls.

c. J. Maxwell, of Highfll, was a Democrat caller Tuesday, and gave us some figures on his berry crop this year.
 Highfill is becoming one of the best berry points in the county and this year shipped Il cars, all of them being sold through the o. F. G. A. Mir. Maxwell has .2 1-2 acres in berries, half of the acreage being a 3-year-old setting and the other half bear iags tllis ' s,.r for the first time. He shipped 443 crates with the 70. F. G. A. and eight crates in- dependent, making a total of 451 crates. The total amount re- ceived was $910.80, making an average of $1.83 a crate. After deducting expenses of crates and picking, he finds that his berries netted him an average of $1. 10 a crate, or S496. 10. He estimated that only about 80 crates came off the 3 year old patch, while the others all came from the acre and a quarter of new ground. But he is not kicking on the old patch, for it made him S830 last year and $250 the year before.
 Folks that say there is no money in strawberries are invit- ed to give us the figures for some local crops that is making them better money for the same aver age. Of course, MT. Maxwell's s berry fields had the very best of cultivation, and he admits it is hard work, but he says it pays better than anything else he can raise and is going to stay with them. He will reset a new field this year to take the place of the old one. In addition to the money from the berries, Mir. Maxwell sold 30,000 plants this year. Rogers Democrat.

LASTING PROSPERITY

If we want the right kind of lasting prosperity in this country we must get 9 lot of people away from the centers of population and onto the farms, where op- portunity awaits them. This business of rushing off to the great cities and depopulating the farms is doing more to retard prosperity than all other causes combined. Any man of common sense and a reasonable degree of energy can make a mighty fine living on farm and be req sonably independent while so do- ing, while fully one half of the population today is under-fed be- cause they are stagnating in cities where there are ten ap- plicants for every job. Strikes, lockouts and other labor wars do not greatly affect the man on the farm, for crops grow on just the same and appetites do not de- crease. The real greatness of this country will come when the land is more fully under cultiva- tion and worked to better advan- tage on scientific lines.
The Green Forest tribune., 1915-07-16

With very few exceptions the country has settled down to the convictions that the time is op- perfume for taking adequate measures for the National de- fense. Every day seems to dem- monstrate more clearly than ever before the absolute imperative ness of such a course if we are to preserve our entity and pro- tect our rights. The fate of Belgium and China is forcing up- on us the conviction that a con- dition of national helplessness is no protection against foreign aggression, and the temper of the people is such that congress will now undoubtedly feel war ranted in taking prompt meas ures for greater security.
