One effect Of the great European
war that II felt locally. and may BE-
come serious within another year.
II the scarcity OF many necessary
drugs and chemicals. In some In
stances the war has wiped out the
supply altogether. and In other In
stances It has caused prices to soar
TO IN almost prohibitive height
Quinine. for instance. was quoted
at IS cents an ounce q year ago BY
Detroit Wholesale drug company.
and now the price Is $1.75 per
ouonce, sold In fve-ounce tine. Last
wek the price went as high rs $2.l0
an ounce. The reason given for tho
big advance 10 that the European
countries need large quantities Of
puinine to combat fever on the bat

tration camps. the prison camps and

believe that the scarcity Of quinine

ously for the reason that the use of

to the general betterment of canitary
