Tuberculosis Fight Nation

Sna80 HERE are indications that the Y coming year will be the big gest year in the history of this country in the fight against tuberculosis. Six years ago there were
 but two open air schools where the great white plague was systematically fought. Now there are moro than five hundred. The Red Cross seal campaign, which opened on Dec. l, has been very successful despite the added demands due to the great war in Europe. Wherever the fight against tubercu- losis is waged the name and praises of Dr. Robert Koch are sung. pr. Koch was one of the pioneers in the syste- mat1c campaign against the dread dis ease. He lived to see some of his pet projects carried out He visited prac- tically every civilized and uncivilized country in the world on behalf of the German and foreign governments in search of the causes of and weapons against epidemic diseas. He was awarded the Nobel prize of s50,00O for his discovery of the antitoxin of tuber- culosis. His discovery of the germ of the white plague won him distinction throughout the world.
 One of the leading physicians of the country recently defined the two factors in the perpetuation of tuberculosis as:
 "First-The individuals makeup or constitution or a temporary state of the body, which makes him either continu- ously or at times susceptible to the dis ease. This is called disposition.
 "Second.-The presence of the bacil- Jus in his surroundings, which, if he cannot escape it, is his compulsory milieu-this is included in the term ex- posture. The sources of infection to which man is exposed are other tubcr- culosis human beings and tuberculosis l food"
 He outlined the regulation of dwell | ing houses, the protection of workers | in factories and elsewhere against dust l and other mediums of danger, the regu- | latiOn of the hours of labor and the | enforcement of the greatest possible | cleanliness as means of limiting dis position" while diminishing exposure He also touched upon the Safeguarding of the food supply, especially milk and | meat, from the tuberculosis bacilli upon the necessity of the general i'm 'provement of the nutrition of the peo- pie at large and the power of the gov ernmental authorities to minimize the danger of infection in schools and pub lie buildings and to increase the ability to resist the disease in individuals by subsldiz!ng private efforts to encourage |

best of feeling appears to exist between the French and German soldiers, who for weeks have faced one another or the long line between Nieuport and Belfort.
 So close are the camps to each other that it is possible for the two forces to exchange words. They indulge in friendly contests, shooting at spade tar gets, with no intention of hitting any one, and competing for hares, which run between the lines.
 A French soldier writes of these amusements:
 "A target is painted on a spade and moved through our trench in such way that it shows about two feet above the ground. The Germans shoot at 1t. With a stick we indicate the results of their fire and when one hits the bulls eye he is rewarded with the waving of French flag.
 There is another sort of target prac- tice which is very popular. The region around us is full of cabbage fields and

 His great fame as a batsman is due not only to his success as measured in runs but also, and in chief, to the originality, and peculiar charm of his style. Nothing is as effective as a striking result produced without any apparent effort. There are many bats men who make some one stroke with such wonderful ease and effect that all their other strokes receive in compari son but scant appreciation.

dream OF KANSAS
MACHINE OPERATED BY TWO
MEN WILL REPLACE HAIR
VEST HANDS.

Topeka, Kan. Sept. 30.-Within
one year. possibly two, there will be
no call for harvest hands when the
wheat Is ready for cutting. AT least
this is the belief of the farmers i'm
Kansas. Machines invented during
the last year have been tried out this
summer by the farmers with success.
No harvesters, when the machines
are in use will be needed.
The machine which the farmers be-
lieve will supplant the harvest hands
Is propelled by -four horses and oper-
ated by two men. In size and APP
pearance IL resembles a header.
The machines do not head the
wheat. They thresh the wheat from
the stalk. The straw is left stand
ing and uncut on the ground. The
wheat runs into the sacks from the
side OF the machines. Without shock
ing or stacking. the ~threshing is done
direct.
The machines Fan be run on the
wet wheat fields as nicely as the
binders. according to the farmers.
This year, except where the ground
Is excessively moistened, the farmers
have been able to use the machines
satisfactorily in every instance.
What such a machine will mean TO
Kansas. If its use becomes general. is
inestlmable. One thing it portends is
a certainty. There will no longer be
need of the clarion call for $4,000
harvesters.
Kansas farmers are not given to
dreams. But during the last few
years they have seen the necessity OF
the abolition of harvesters. No trou-
BILE would be experienced by the
farmers IL the harvest hands coming
to the wheat fields all wished to
work. But they don't.
A large percentage of them are l.
w. WIS, or, in other words. men who
refuse virtually outright to help with
the wheat cutting. They don't come
to help the farmers and themselves,
but to prove an obstacle in the har-
vest and in the way of men who re
ally desire employment. The farmers
have come to realize this.
The farmers not alone have trouble
with the |. w. VS. during harvest,
but before ii begins. Not being able
to determine exactly who will and
who will not work, the 1. w. WIS
get advantage Of the bread lines also
This years harvest has shown the
farmers of Kansas that something Is
needed to supplant the harvesters,
Sabotage has never been practised
more freely by the /. w. WIS.
Many farmers have lost nearly
their entire wheat crop as a result
of the incendiary working of the
hobo" type.
Hundreds of acres of fields in
western Kansas have been burned,
with almost a total loss to the farm
err. The breaking of the machinery
has held up the harvesting in north
western Kansas at the most critical
times.
Heavy rains have fallen this sum
mer, especially in the northeastern
part of the state. The hoboes wait
until the fields have just about dried
sufficient for the work of cutting
to begin and then break the ma
chimes.
This delays the harvesting fol
days, and by the time the farmers
have made repairs for the cutting
rainfall again usually interferes.
With the new combination ma
chimes Kansas will have practically
all the workers 1t needs within the
state to do the work. No call fol
outside assistance will be necessary
