Fifty or More Do Not Profit by Pro.
motions, From July l to August
IL, Controller Rules.

Promotions for fifty or more of the
employees of the Department of Agricul-
ture did not take place on July /. the
beginning of the fiscal year, but had to
wait until the agricultural appropria-
ton act actually passed both houses Of
Congress, according to a decision from
the controller of the Treasury.
The fact that the promotions had been
indicated by the various bureau chiefs
makes no difference. The appropria-
tions for the department We're continued
for a month and half by a continuing
resolution, while Congress was unable
to pass the appropriation act.
The controller now says that in the
cases put uD to him the employees pro-
NOTED were not promoted July !. but
August H. and do not draw promoted
pay from July l.
The specific cases involved include
thirty-one compositors and printers at
the weather bureau; a law clerk in the
office of the Secretary: a clerk in the
Office of the Secretary promoted to
class four from CLASS three. and several
employees scattered through other offices.

due to increased activity Of the typhoid
bacillus or increased susceptibility, it

due to increased activity Of the typhoid
bacillus or increased susceptibility, it
would be unsafe to hazard even a guess"
said Dr. Woodward 1.-THE practical les
son to be learned is that the man who
would escape autumnal typhoid must be
more than usually vigilant to avoid in
fection, and keep himself in the utmost
possible vigor so as to resist invasion if
unavoidably exposed to the disease
During the current year. through Sep
tember 12. 214 cases of typhoid have
been reported. During the corresponding
period last year 1874 cases were reported
OF this years cases. seventy-eisht are
said to be due to outside infection.
Dr. Woodward said that no case of
typhoid fever has been attributed to
milk infection. neither last year or this.
He suggests that bathing. and particu-
larly swimming. in polluted water may
cause typhoid. OF this years cases
three patients have been in the munich
pal pools and seven in the Potomac
river and elsewhere.
THE disproportion in favor of the
pools is striking" he said, especially
when the enormous patronage of these
pools is considered. 1t is strongly sug-
gestive of river infection. too. which
seems not unlikely in view of the well
known pollution of the river in the
vicinity of Washington

SHORTAGE OF PAPER
MATERIAL

Your attention is called to the
fact that there is serious short
age of raw material for the man
ufacture of paper including rags
and old papers. The collecting
and saving of Rags and Old Pa
pers would greatly better exist
ing conditions for the American
Paper Manufacturers.
Something like $4,000 tons of
different kinds of paper and pa
per board are manufactured
every day in the United States
and a large portion of this. after
it has served it's purpose, could
be used over again in some class
of paper. A large part of it, how
ever, is either burned or other
wise wasted. This. of course.
has to be replaced by new ma
terials. In the early history of
the paper industry publicity was
given to the Importance of saw
ing rags. 1t is of scarcely less
Importance now. The attention
of the public is called to this in
the hope that practical results
may flow from it. A little atten-
tion to the saving of rags and
old papers will mean genuine
relief to our paper industry and
a diminishing drain upon our
sources of supply of new ma
terials.
An adequate supply of rags and
old paper is of vital Importance
to all branches of the paper in
dustry.
WILL YOU HELP?
Then save your rags and old
paper.
