How the Surgeons Have Prevented Epidemics and Cared for the Health ofthe Soldiers Who Are Fighting In Europe.

 Tls a well known fact that when
 war comes to a nation more sol-
 diers die from disease than from . bullets. Practically all the great wars of past ages were carried on in conditions of dirt and misery and privation which today are scarcely to be found anywhere in the whole world. The association of famine with sword and of disease with war was no myth; these scourges were, in fact, indissolubfy connected, and war with out plague and epidemic were un- known. It is easy in the light of modern scientific knowledge to realize how this miserable condition existed In those days men lived Every near the soil" The margin of safety, so far as disease was concerned, was all ways a very narrow one. There was no effective sanitation, and modern methods in regard to sewerage dis posal and public health were not de- veloped-perhaps were really un- known. Almost all of the diseases which we now speak of as epidemic were then endemic-that is to say, they remained permanently fixed in locality and attacked all members of the community. War broke down what slender protection the people had built against disease, consequent ly whole populations were engulfed in the terrible disasters known by such names as "b1ack death" and "great plague" War too, swept away the. ordinary necessities of life and thus brought in its train diseases like scurvy, which often played greater havoc with armies than the hostile weapons of the enemy. The fighting man was exposed to thousand risks and usually in the end fell victim to one of them. Danger from the foe wasthe least of all the menaces which threatened him.

Asked as to the method of provid- ing funds for loaning the farmers, MT. Quick answered: ''The Federal land banks will sell bonds to get money enough to supply the farmers, needs on any large scale.
 Farmers in : the past, even in

regions where money was plentiful and rates low, have been at disad- vantage because of the fact that they were not in close touch with loanable money, and people with loanable money were not in touch with the farmers.
 These twelve land banks are twelve reservoirs of money into which the loanable capital may be drawn; and from these reservoirs the money will

AIR RAIDS MADE ON TWO sue.
CESSlvE NIGHTS.

On both Wednesday and Thursday
nights raids over the English coast
were made by Zcppelins. The official
statement regarding Wednesday
nights raid said that n hostile air
ship crossed the east coast shortly
before midnight and dropped fifteen
explosive and fifteen inccndiary
bombs In open fields and that no
damage or casualties resulted. There
was nothing in the announcement to
indicate that the Zeppelin reached
London.
Earlier In the war there were several
attacks on London by Zeppelins, caus-
ing heavy loss of life and property.
The immunity with which the German
avlators were able to strike at the
British led to a widespread agitation
for Improvement Of aerial dcfcnses.
a special department was cstab-
lishcd for this purpose and the de-
fcnses of the city were strengthened to
such degree that In the last year
London has felt little apprehension.
The last raid OF importance on Lon
don was In October OF 1915, when so
persons were killed and ia injured
Several times since then official Ger
man statements have reported raids
on London. but there has been no
word of them from British Official
sources.
