The Fly is the lie That Binds the
 Unhealthy to the Healthy.

The fly has no equal as a germ carrier; as many as five hundred million germs have been found in and on the body of a single fly.
 It is definitely known that the fly is the carrier of the germs of ty- phoid fever; it is widely believed that it is also the carrier of other diseases, including possibly infan- tile paralysis.
 The very presence of fly is a signal and notification that house. keeper is uncleanly and inefficient.
 Do not wait until the insects be- gins to poster; anticipate the an- noyance.
 April, May and June are the best months to conduct an anti-hy campaign.
 The farming and suburban dis tricts provide ideal breeding places and the new born flies do not re- main at their birth place but mi grate, using railroads and other means of transportation, to towns and cities.

Worlds Model Mountain.

Mount Shasta, according to an In dian legend, was the first mountain made by the Creator as his master piece, and with this as a model he de signed the other mountains of the world says the National Geographic Magazine. The ascent of Shasta Is difficult, bat with competent guides is not perilous. With the little town of Sisson as a base, there is good horseback trail to Timberline camp, an overnight rest six miles away. Starting from this camp very early the next morning, the experienced mountaineer can make the ascent and return to Sisson in day. M

Rubber Boots, Pocket Size.

pair of rubber boots so light that they may be rolled up and carried in the pocket is principally designed for the use of amateur fishermen, says the Scientific American. For wading through streams they are worn over the leather shoes, affording all the pro- lection of the heavy boots without the inconvenience of the latter while on the way to and from the fishing ground. The boots are made of pure gum, fashion lined and have an eles- tic top, thus fitting tightly around the leg.

THE FOOD PROBLEM.


 confyonts our country, no more sig nal service can be rendered thar by the farmers of the country in . united and earnest effort to raise enough food products for the United Stated and her allies, says B.sF. Bush, Receiver of the Mis- souri, -Pacific-Iron Mountain Ry., and member of National Defense committee. This is equally as im- portant as recruiting large army or manning a more extensive navy. It is as true now as when Marcus Cato proclaimed to the Romans that you cannot Make speeches to the belly, which has no ears, for the stomach cannot be filled with fair words.
 The nation, in time of war, is en- titled from every man, rich or poor to such service as may be required, subject to the limitations imposed by age or sickness.
 With reported slump of more than fifty million bushels of winter wheat, as compared to last years crop, as recently reported by the government, our country is brought face to face with the first serious war feeding problem.
 To meet the increased demands for food products, caused by the war. additional preparations would be necessary were it not for the present decrease in the wheat crop, but, on account of such de- crease, the question of supplying the food necessary for the fighting men presents a serious problem which the farmers of our country must help to solve.
 The present war and natural conditions have resulted in a scare ity of food products throughout the whole world, and regardless of the increased remuneration which this condition guarantees for such prod ucts, 1t is apparent that every farmer should bend every effort to increase the acreage and yield of all kinds of food stuffs by obtaining the necessary feed, labor and im- plements to do so.
 The large army of able-bodied men, too old to fight, can do their part by preparations to help feed the men who fight.
 In addition tFle crops of corn and wheat, thousands of acres of navy beans and s slmilar crops that have the maxim lum amount of nutrition to the Hundred pounds should be raised. All kinds of food stuffs that Can be proftably canned or dflec or prepared for ocean trans DOT tation should be prepared in or de that our soldiers and those of Our allies can be provided with varied and wholesome diet
 The transportation lines of the country are adapting every availa- ble revenue and every possible means to be prepared to serve the country and general public as transportation agencies, and, the men in the agricultural depart ments of the Missouri Pacific and | Iron Mountain Railways will CO., operate with the farmers, both in dividually and through their organ izatons, in an effort to assist in | bringing about an increase in the yield of the lands of this section.

Kept Parents In Ignorance

A kindly conspiracy kept an aged
couple in ignorance of the fact that
their soIi-an officer In the army-was
facing the dreadful ordeal of being
tried for murder, says London cor
respondent. The parents live in re-
mote part of the country, and as they
are not in very good health, they re-
ceive few visitors. The mans sisters
established censorship of all letters
and papers coming into the house. Any
letter that bore any reference to the
trial was suppressed. while they were
sometimes hard put to 1t to explain
why the papers were SO ruthlessly
mutilated. During the process of the
trial the man wrote letters home In
which he pretended to be at the front.
Eventually he was triumphantly ac-
quilted, but the parents were kept In
ignorance of even this fact, as 1t was
feared the shock would have too great
an effect upon them.

HOW He SAW THE BALL GAME
Man carted Dry Goods Box and Brass
Kettle to Grounds to Prevent
Repetition of Injdries.

Il am cautious man." said Mr..
Slowboy, "and rarely place myself in
danger without taking great precau-
tions,' and he lifted out of his wagon
dry goods box and brass kettle.
Il came out here to see match three
weeks ago." the old man explained,
"and during the game red-hot ball,
right from the bat, struck me like a
cannon shot between the eyes, bent
my spectacles down, broke both glass
es, disarranged my ideas, INSTRUCTED
my view of the game and knocked me
down. Then the catcher and short
stop ran together and stood on me,
and jumped to catch the ball, and
when they came down they both
kicked me for getting In the way and
making them miss the ball. And now
have brought along this dry goods
box to sit in and this brass kettle to
wear on my head"
And, placidly, safely, but little
warm, withal, he saw the game clear
through. - Pittsburgh Chronicle ele.

the fast little ships have been over

as gun shields for men operating the
guns, nonbreakable windows for the
bridges, more crows nests and extra
life RATS.
An entirely new issue Of heavy gar.
ments, designed by the British from
their experience on torpedo boats in
the terrible weather OF this coast, has
been made. Here are some of the
things that will make the men look
more like Arctic explorers than blue
Jackets.
Helmets made of wood and covering
all but the eyes, nose and mouth;
light coat sweaters, jerseys and cardi.
gan jackets, knitted Undertaking !,
lightweight wooden socks and knee
length knitted stockings, besides the
heavy, thick wooden socks for boots:
leather sea boots, windproof khaki
colored TROUSERS, great coats lined
with lambs wool and knitted muffiers.
Over this clothing officers and men
will continue to wear tie kapok jack
cts made in vest form. These vests,

critics, are very warm. Pillows and
mattresses on board ships are made
of the same material.

Should Make soldiers l1appy.

"When was first admitted to the
bar, l pictured myself as engaged In
making imprisoned addresses to
juries,' writes Emerson Hough. Later
foend that a lawyer had great
many things to do besides making i'm
FASHIONED addresses. We picture to our
selves soldier as engaged always In
the imminent deadly breach, his sword
waving above his head. As a matter
Of fact, a soldier has to do great
many things besides wave his sword,
has to eat, drink, smoke, play cards,
sew on buttons, wash, shave-a
read. The soldier who does not read
is neither as good or as happy SOL
der as he might and ought to be. 1t
Is our duty to make our soldiers not
only good ones, but happy ones. Ergo,
books, and plenty of them, for the boys
at the front"

DEFINE CHRISTIAN EFFIclENc
1t Is in Thinking and Doing as Christ
Would Have Us Think
and Do.

Sometimes a word becomes so over
worked that the idea back OF the word
suffers because of the place that the
word comes to hold as one to be
rather avoided. Efficiency, as q word,
has been so freely used that 1t is not
strange that one should seek to avoid
II In his vocabulary If he can think Of
anything else In its place. But the
chief trouble is in losing track of the
idea while we are trying to find a
substitute for the word Christian eff
fiency is not cold-blooded calculating
mechanism. 1t is simply thinking and
doing as Christ would have us think
and do. That idea no word ought ever
to obscure. The most efficient Chris.
tian is one through whom Christ can
work with the least friction and the
least change Of Christ's plans. If we
like sllpshod ways, 1t may bring us
to- our senses to realize that they are
not Christ's ways.-Sunday School
