has been entirely inadequate, and the
grim disease has kept steadily at
work in its toll OF hundreds OF lives
daily.
Even now, Servia's declaration that
the disease is under control is based
more on the hope that the measures
taken will prove effective rather than
on any great check of the epidemic
That there has been slight diminui-
ton now for two weeks past cannot
be denied. For the fight on disease,
Servia must depend on foreign help.
The fifteen southern provinces have
been turned over to the mission of the
Rockefeller foundation, sent out in
conjunction with the Red Cross. The
central part of Servia. about Uakub
and kraguyevats, has been turned
over TO the English. who now have a
total Of 300 nurses and doctors there.
The northern part of Servia is in the
hands Of the Russians, although at
cially strong and fatal, the American
Red Cross units are fighting the grim
fight. France has just sent mis-
sion OF 100 doctors and sanitary ex-
perts, who will endeavor to work
over the sanitation of the whole coun-
try. Owing to the pitiful condition
in which the little country was, even
before the war started, this foreign
help is declared by the members of
the various missions themselves to be
wholly inadequate. 1t is much more,
howe yer. than Servia has ever had at
any time in the past. She is pinning
hopes Of her continued existence In it
with almost pitiful confidence.
Wien the present war broke out
there VAS in all Seryia with pOpu-
latiOn Of 5000. 900. only 900 doctors.
The majority OF these had to go at
once to the army, leaving the civilian
population practically without med

fallen victims to the epidemic which
they were fighting. With those who
remain, and with the other doctors
that nave been sent by various foreign
governments together with 140 more
which the Servian government Sc
cured by offering a salary of $3.50
month to any physician who would
come. there are now in all Servia
very few more than 1000 doctors.
This is about one physician to every
5000 Of population.
Terrible as this lask of doctors is,
1t Is as nothing in comparison with
the lack OF hospitals and medical sup
plies. So scarce were the latter fol-
lowing Sefvia's last great battle that
the bandages had to be taken from

those less seriously hurt and reused
on grave cases. In the frightful fever
whuch burns up typhus victims cold
packs have to he usea. Aside from
there being not enough doctors and
nurses to supply those to more than
one In " thousand. there was not In
all Servia even enough sheets for that
purpose. All white cloth IN Scrvia
that could possibly be used for bind
ing up the wounded was long aeo
dedicated to that purpose,
While medical authorities say that
typhus Is spread by the bites of an
infected louise. the American rhysi-
clans In Servia are unanimous In de-
claring that in reality Il Is highly
contagious The deaths among doc
tors and nurses have been especially
high. During February IN the vicin-
ity of Nish. 100 physicians were

Servia and the Cross of the Legion OF

LOOKS LIKE TAX LEVY
WILL Be THE LIMIT
STATE WILL NEED $3,47t,342 IN
REVENUE FOR YEAR; STATE
EXPENSE BIG

Figures that have been made in the
office Of State Auditor +. b. Howard
on the probable amount of the tax
levy for the year, which is the next
big work for the state board of equal
ization, indicate that the sum to be
raised is approximately $2,22l0OO,
which is exclusive of the revenues
that are estimated from other than
ad valorem taxes. The amount OF
these revenues will be approximately
81, 1,250,OO0, making the total Of reye-
nles that are required approximately
$3,471 ,842. Included in this sum is
the amount of $1,742,Ot7 for deficien-
cy and from that is deducted the es-
timated surplus from the preceding
year of $570,374. Taxable values are
estimated at sl!1S5, 10000.
Based upon these figures, it is ap-
parent that the tax levy will have to
be 2% mills, to which must be added
the 4 mill for road tax and the u
mill for schools, making the probable
levy for the year 81 mills, being just
y mill under the constitutional limit
These figures, it is understood, are
predicated upon the theory that the
gross production tax against oil and
operations will be upheld by
the court. If this be not done the
involved in that schedule
will be assessed upon the former ba-
sis and will not yield as much reve-
nue. as under the new law. This may
make the levy higher, ap-
proximating the maximum allowed by
the law.

SAYS NORTH STATE FARM
ERS ARE MACHINE MAD

BlLEs so BADLY THEY ARE PAY
ING PREMIUMS FOR THEM

Farmers in northern Oklahoma are
holding on TO their wheat for better
price. They are also paying premiums
for automobiles. Near Newkirk the
other day one farmer offered another
SIS for his chance of buying his auto
mobile when it arrived at a local
agency. The automobile business has
doomed to such a degree in that sec
tfon, that every dealer is far behind
in his deliveries. and farmers are said
to be actually begging for machines.
d. d. Davis, general agent and Sam
Mulholland, travelling agent for the
Orient, who were here today tell the
story. Mr.. Davis says comparatively
little wheat is moving, as this year
Oklahoma farmers believe the market
gradually will rise to the price they
want. They can afford to hold on to
their crop this season for the first time
in years and expect to realize big
profits.

DV|NsK, FORTIFIED CITY

GREECE READY AND WAIT
ING FOR BULGARIA TO
ACT IN BALKANS
(By Associated Press.) j

London, Sept l25.--The position Of
the Russians from wilma to the Gala
clan frontier appears to have been
improved greatly, three distinct vic
tories having been recorded almost
simultaneously at widely separated
points on the eastern front.
This report of new achievements
has mitigated the uneasiness felt in
England as to the attitude of Bul-
garia.
In the far north, however, the sit
uation is less favorable for the Rus
SLAMS. They are resisting Won Hin
denburg's men with characteristic
stubbornness, but the admission that
fighting is now proceeding at Smie-
tin, three miles from Noyo Alexand-
roysk, indicates that the approaches
of the latter town is in the hands Of
the Germans, and that being a fact
Dvinsk is in great danger.
