cultivation and $4,000 square miles in

EXPECTING AN END
OF the War, Many Phosphate Mines
Are i'm Operation

Are i'm Operation
Says the Jacksonville Metropolis of
Sunday: "That phosphate mine
operators of Florida are confident OF
the early close of the European war
is evidenced by the fact, according to
DIR. J.. G. Baskin of Dunnellon, that
every mine in that section is operat-
ing full time and several operators
are charging their plants. Business
conditions in the phosphate section
are much improved and a large guam
tity of roch is being stored up against
the demand which will make itself
felt Immediately upon the conclusion
of peace and the opening of all ports
to commerce
"Dr. Baskin, who is president of the
Bank of Dunnel]on ,as well as being a
practicing physician, was in the city
Saturday, and was interviewed in the
Office of United States Marshal Bos-
well, an old friend.
Phosphate operators are laying
up great store of rock said DIR. Bas-
kin, and they believe the conclusion
of peace is not far distant. Little rock
is being shipped now, but once the
war is over all countries now fighting
will be clamoring for fertilizers and
fertilizer ingredients and Florida will
reap the benefit of commercial pre-
paredness.
Many of the mines in the Dun
Mellon section, which is the heart of
the phosphate territory, are increas-
ing output facilities and with plenty
of labor on hand the operators are
storing their product ready for deliv-
cry when deliveries are possible"

ing success of it, as he does of
most things he takes hold of. Mr..
Bennett made name for himself
with the travelling public before COM

up whenever they came to town. In

Henry James' style.

Stevenson spotted the unconscious
able repetition of certain adjectives I'm
Frederick Hudson" but probably the
most marked characteristic Of Henry
James style was his passion for adj
verbs and adverbial clauses. He was
the most adverbial of English writer's.
You will find more adverbs to the page
than even In Meredith. And he had a
quaint habit OF putting the adverb
before the verb when most writer's
would put it after. One Of his ladies
(the examples are taken at random)
thankfully felt another quite beau
tifully and tenderly smiled" And
after ALL crops up all over the place
But one would not have these things
altered; they were part Of the man.
One does object to them. however. in
his imitators. who have learned the
trick, but missed the spirit behind it,

PREVENTION OF SICKNESS.

Against Poverty.

1t Would Prove Most Effective Blow
Against Poverty.
That sickness is the first step leading
TO dependency and the primary cause
or poverty is shown by an investiga-
ton conducted by the Russell Sage
foundation in New York city This in
vestigation was made among wage
earners and charity organizations with
a view to knowing how frequently is
sickness encountered as a factor In de-
tendency. 1t was found that over 35
per cent of those in need OF aid had
been brought to this position through
sickness or the responsibility for sick
ness. Another important fact revealed
was that most of the cases studied be-
Ionged to the lower branches of labor
and that they were here for the rea-
son that either physical or mental de-
ter1oration had followed past illnesses.
In other words, sickness was found to
be factor producing low grade of
labor as well as dependency.
Of the 687 cases of sickness studied
two-thirds were found at the time of
the investigation to have been sick
more than half year, and the physi-
clan estimated that 295 cases were
chronic, while eighty-one were likely
to become progressively worse.
That the prevention of sickness is the
most effective blow against poverty
and dependency was the recommends
ton made by the committee making
the investigation. Some of the needs
to this end were pointed out, as more
prompt medical attention, education in
hygiene and sanitation, opportunity for
periodical medical examinations to pre-
vent sickness and better health condi-
tons both IN lio-.es and places of en-
ployment
