TO PREVENT COLDS.
Increase Bodily Defenses Against Disease
Germ.

PEOPLE who have colds, according to the
U. S. public health service, are suffering
from an attack Of germs which they
carry in their own mouths or threats,
These have been permitted to reside there
in a state of armed neutrality between
the germs and the body dfenses, until
fatigue. emotion, intenperance, oyer-eX-
ertion or sudden chill temporarily re-
duces the integrity Of the body's defen-
sfve agents. This produces the aggrega-
ton of symptoms known as a cold. Colds
are really very serious matters, and
should never be treated lightly. If the
body's resistance to one kind OF disease
germ is lowered, it is quite easy Tor 9th
err germs to gain a foothold and spring
into activity at such time. The infec-
ton which has produced cold may eX.
tend to other parts Of the body AMI
middle-ear disease and deafness may en-.
sue, or remote joint NAV be infected,
thus causing a lowered efficiency through
out life. Many Of the cases which are
diagnosed as rheumatism arc merely the
chronic poisoning which results from the
continued growth Of the same germs
which produce colds. Since colds are in
dueed by a lowering Of the bodily eff
cheney. il is seen that they may be avoid

processes in good condition. This
means the observance Of the rules OF by.
eiene. adequate food. avoidance OF ex-
cesses. the securing Of sufficient sleep
and the like Above all. the teeth should
be kept in good condition and the mouth
kept clean.
II Is the duty Of persons who have,
colds to take every precaution against

RADIUM, URANIUM,
AND VANADIUM
Production in 1914 was Largest in His
tory According to United States
Geological Survey.

The year 1914 was an eventiul one II
the industry Of mining radium. uranium
and vanadium ores and had by far the
largest years production yet made, Fig
ures collected by Frank L. Hess, OF the
United States geological survey, indi'
cate that the output amounted TO about
1900 short tons of dry ore carrying 81
tons of uranium oxida and 224 grams
of metallic radium The ore MAS valued
at about S445,000 The ore produced
in 1913 contained Al tons OF uranium OK
ide and 100 grams of radium, and that
produced in 1912 contained 20 tons OF
uranium oxide and 81 grams OF radt'
UNI. About nine tenths OF the contained
radium is thought to be recoverable. I'M
der improved processes.
Although carnotite, mineral Of these
rare metals, contains three times az
much uranium oxide as vanadium oxide
tho Colorado and Utah ores Of these met
ais generally contain other vanadium
minerals in such quantity that yanadl-
UNI oxide is present in excess OF the
uranium oxide. Howere, little is paid
for the vanadium, as its separation IRON
uranium is troublesome, and only few
thousand dollafs was received in 1914
by brokers or producers for the wanna
dunn in the ores sold. Sandstone inn
pregnated with roscoelite, a vanadium'
bearing mica, is mined at Vanadium,
san Miguel county, Colo, on the eastern
edge of the carnotite field, by the Pri-
mos Chemical company. The total guam
tity of vanadium in the carnotite and
other ores mined during the year was
apparently about 432 tons.
About the beginning OF 1914, owing
to the very high prices charged for ra-
dunn salts. their scarcity, their eyi-
dent usefulness in treating cancer and
other hitherto incurable diseases, the
practical impossibility of the poor re.
ceiving treatment by radium because
of its scarcity and high cost, and to the
fact that much of the radium bearing
ore was being shipped out Of the coun-
try, Secretary OF the Interior Lane
caused to be introduced in Congress bills
reserving redium- bearing lands from en-.
try as mining claims, and providing for
government purchase. The bills are still
pending.

Spring Shooting of Migratory Birds Abb
solutely Prohibited.

From the number OF letters which
they have received on the subject re-
Gently. officials of the department believe
that sportsmen may unintentionally vio-
late the provisions of the federal migra-
tory bird law, which it is the purpose Of
the government to enforce rigidly. u.
der the provisions of this law no wate'-
fowl can be snot in the northern or brceU-
ing zone after JAM Is, except ~ Ne|
Jersey. where the Season extends TO teb.
/. In most of the southern or winter
ing zones the season closes Feb. L. nut
extends TO Feb. Is in Florida, Georgia,
and South Carolina. These regulations
were proclaimed on Oct. ], 1914. No
change has since been made in them,
and no change is likely TO be made until
the eonstitutionality - the law has been
passed on by the United States supreme
court. As matter of fact, the law pro-
pides that all changes in the regulations
must be considered for a period OF 30
DAYS. and then must be- approved and
signed by the president before they pe-
come effective. IL is thus evident that
there is no possibility that the prohibit
ton of spring shooting will be in any
way modified this year.
The officials Of the department who are
iutrusted with the enforcement OF the
law are anxious that these facts be inn
pressed upon the people because II Is the
intention to investigate carefully all re-
ports OF violations made 10 the depart
ment's inspectors and wardens and to
prosecute an such violations in the fed
eral courts. In this connection II -
pointed out that prosecutions may be
instituted at any time within three years
OF the ofiense.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Klark- Urban Company Opens With "The
Third Degree" Tonight.

In 1888, in the preface of "Ruy Bias"
Victor Hugo said that audiences may be
deviced into three classes; the mob,
which demands action, the woman, who
desires passion, and the thinker, who
cares for Characterization. "All three, .
the author went on to say, ARE seeking
a pleasure but with the first it il a
pleasure OF the eyes, with the second the
pleasure of the heart, and with the third
the pleasure of the mind" The state
ment is as true to-day as when first
made "The Third Degree" is the most
popular play of the last decade because
it makes a direct appeal to all three
classes. 1t is play of action, and bet
ter, it is a play of action motived by
the heart The tremendous success Of
"The Third Degree" shows that Mr..
Klein. who has also TO his credit such
successes as "The Music Master" and
"The Lion and the Mouse knows how
TO please the plblie fancy. and still re-
mains true to his ideal of an appeal. not
alone the eyes, but to the head and heart
az well. "The Third Degree" is the most
ambitious play ever attempted at popu-
lar prices, and when il is presented at
the opera house tonight by the Klark-
Urban company, "The Mob, "The Wom-
an" and "The Thinker" should all be
there, because it viii appeal to all three
classes as the greatest American play
ever produced at popular prices. All spe-
cial scenery is carried for the production
and high class vaudeville will be intro.

tinuous performance. Seats ON sale

THE SERUM SHOULD BE PURE.

These days. when hog cholera is play
ing havoc with many herd of val
liable hogs, considerable attention is be
ing paid by hog raisers to the vaccina
ton method as means of wardng of
the disease. Where the cholera vac
cine is pure and properly applied II
has been remarkably successful. as in
dicated in reports of the Illinois board
of live stock commissioners. which
state that out of 24l 900 hogs given the
treatment less than l per cent died
In some isolated cases where vaccine
of unknown strength and purity has
been used the loss from cholera has
been practically as severe as If nc
treatment had been given. lnasmucb
as it costs close to a dollar head to
vaccinate hogs, it is well to see to 1t
that the fellow who does 1t under
stands his job and that the vaccine
used is the best obtainable.
