ARSON TRUST CASE
ABRUPTLY ENDED
Three Men Plead Guilty to Completely
in Causing Fire in RoXbury Dis
trict of Boston.

BOSTON, Jan 81 Three men, al
legged members of so-called arson trust
that operated extensively III this city
during the past year, pleaded guilty in
superior court yesterday to completely
in causing fire in the Roxbury district
for the purpose Of obtaining insurance.
Sentence was deferred until today.
The defendants. whose trial was
abruptly ended by the plea, were: Har-
ris Pearlstein, a real estate agent; Carl
Popitz, an insurance agent, and Morris
Finklestein. The state alleged that
Finklestein had been engaged by the
others to set the fire on the promise that
he would receive 800 for the job.
Eddie Handler, who recently con
fessed in court that he had started a
number of fires at fixed scale of rates,
testified that he was employed to burn
the Roxbury building, but quit aft
er boring holes in the floors of two
rooms because the money promised him
was not Forthcoming. During court
recess it was alleged that Isaac Violin
Sky. a friend of Pearlstein, met Kan
dler s wife and told her Handler
would be paid 81 900 if he would testify
that Pcarlstein had no part in the crime
The woman took the message to her
husband, who is in prison, and he
promptly reported the matter to the dis
trict attorney, by whom it was laid be
fore the court.

SANATORIUMS IN
ALL Ia COUNTIES
Project to Be Presented to Legislature
by Society for Prevention Of Tu-
berculoSis.

BURLINGTON, Jan. 3l.-The prop
osition to authorize the building or
county sanatoriums for the care of tn.
berculosis patients in the several coun-
ties in the state will be Incorporated
in a bin to be presented to the legisla-
turc in a few days.
The project is being pushed by the
Vermont Society for the Prevention
of tuberculosis. This idea is to make
is possible for any one county, or more,
if deemed advisable, to cooperate in
building such sanatoriums for the care
of tuberculosis patients within the
county.
The expense of building viii be borne
by the county, but its maintenance by
the state.
Should the bill become law, the
Society for the Prevention of Tuber-
culosis will at once commence cam
paign to bring about the plan and grad
ually to establish such institutions up
and down Vermont.
The state sanatorium at Pittsford
cares for incipient cases only. At the
county buildings IT would be possible
to segregate large per cent of tbs
victims of the disease, according t
those who are promoting the plan
and thus lessen the danger of it:
spread.

La Sale County Better farming

the average farm herd this practice
Is good one il the cows are not LETT
out too long In some cases, however,
considerable loss Is experienced
from corn stalk disease. Such was
the case this year in some parts OF
Livingston county. The Better Farm
ing Associations have of late years
warned members OF danger from corn
stalk disease whenever it has been
found.
The average farmer, however, is In.
clined to let his herd stay in the
field SO long that the milk production
Is considerably lowered. The COW
that is forced to stay out in a driving

thaws out and digests husks which
she gathers from the field, is not 70.

Here's my guarantee! Ask
your druggist for a SO cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone
and take a teaspoonful to-
night. If it doesn't start your
liver and straighten you right
up better than calomel and
without gripping or making you

Take calomel today and to-
morrow you will feel weak

lose a days work. Take a

RED CROSS CREATES SANI-
 TARY SERVICE BUREAU

The Red Cross authorizes the fol- lowing:
 Following it's policy of caring for the health not only of the soldiers and sailors of the United States, but as well that of the civil population. the American Red Cross has established Ia bureau of san;tory service, which will supplement a~d assist federal. state and local health authorities in meeting sanitary emergencies creat- ed by the war. The work of the bu- reau will center in the civilian areas surrounding army cantonments.
 While sanitary control of national army cantonments, National Guard camps, and naval bases will be exer- cised by the military authorities. the districts immediately adjoining these camps will be under no such iurisdic- tion. Yet the assembling of large bodies of troops will create new sani- tary conditions. These must be met to safeguard the health of civilians as well as of soldiers.
 The problem of milk supply, for ex- ample. will be greatly enlarged. The supply itself must be doubled and sometimes trebled, and this means in- creased forces for inspection. In the Southern States, where malaria is a danger, the Red Cross has already un- dertaken efforts looking toward the eXtermination of mosquitoes. They must be eliminated not only in the camps proper, but in the surrounding country. Cleaning up pools and other breeding places within a mile radius of camps will mean covering from 15 to 60 square miles.
 w. H. Frost, surgeon of the Public Health Service, has been assigned bv the surgeon general, at the request of the Red Cross war council, as direc- tor of the bureau of sanitary service
