MORE COUNTIES TO
FIGHT TYPHOID
Strong Demand for And-Typhoid
Campaigns in Several Pro-
gressive Counties

The anti-typhoid idea is taking
root rapidly. AS soon as amour
cement was made that the State
Board of Healthwould carry on
joint campaigns with a limited
numbered counties, five progress
i've counties responded within a
few withappropriationsrang
ing from $500 from HenderSonand
Buncombe to $3.50 from Cumber-
land, $500 from Northampton and
$3.50 from Wake. Five counties
are all that can be undertaken at
time.
Letters of inquiry and appli-
cations from a number of citizens
of other counties continue to
pour in, and already several are
talking of providing for such
campaigns in their counties as
soon as the campaigns are COM
pleted in the first five. Among
the counties that appear to be
considering this matter most seri-
ously at this time are Orange,
Iredell, Edgecombe, Halifax,
Wilson and Wayne. Of this
group, it is probable that several
will respond at the next meeting
of their board of county commits
sioners which will be held next
Monday. 1t would not be at all
surprizing, however, to hear that
some other counties, from which
little agitation has been heard,
will also respond. The campaign
wi start in the first FIVE counties
on June Il, and will continue
six weeks. The campaign in the
second set of counties will not
open until August End.

There has been no apparent dimi-

British army began buying hybfids

Der, says a disptach from Kansas
City. Mo. Local mule dealers say
that Great Britain alone has purchas.
cd in the United States more than
10000 mules at an average price OF
S175 a head This means a total ex-
penditure of $S,75O,O00
Since the first OF the present

bought 5000 mules in the territory of

Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebras-

The British and French buyers,

average life of horse in the war

A British mule buyer says that the

AGE OF THE sPENDTHRIFT
Billion Collars Year Spent on In
dulgences by Americans.

1t has been said that fully one-hfth
of the S0O,000,00O people of India
never know what it is, from birth un-
til death, to have full stomach,
Similar conditions exist in China,
and abject poverty and restitution
have been the conditions of millions
of peasants in Russia.
How different it is in this country,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch, where
00000,000 year is spent on indul
gences which cannot be described as
sane pleasure, but which do positive
physical and moral harm.
This is not the age of thrift: it is
the age of the spendthrift.
A man is not known by that which
he saves, but by the display he
makes in spending. This country
spends yearly as much for tobacco
as for life insurance premiums, and
half the amount of the life insurance
premiums is spent for candy. Alec
hol eats up IL times the money
spent for life insurance.
S. w. Straus, president of the
American society for Thrift, says
that the age which closed with July
81, 1914, was an age of extravaganza,
international, national, personal.
During the past few years the aver
age American has been compelled to
turn his attention to thrift, either to
regret the absence of those habits of
mind which necessarily characterize
those who are thrifty, or in an en-
deavor to acquire and develop such
mental qualities.
Thrift is management of ones
affairs in such manner that the value
of ones possessions is being con
stantly increased" This was the de
inition which received first prize in
a contest recently conducted by the
American Society for Thrift,
