WARNS OF THE DANGERS
 OF OPIUM AND COCAINE

6NHE control of the opium industry
 Il is subject that is given wide
 publicity. and much has recently been written of the persistence of the Chinese opium producers in cultivatfng their broad fields of white peoples and the measures taken by the Chinese government to prohibit the raising of poppies. and also the measures which have been taken by that government in utilizing the services of the soldiery in destroying the crops -of poppies grown in spite Of official prohibttior.
 Tn the popular mind. China and India have been the great sources of the worlds opium supply. but late Ameri- can consular report shows. that the cultivation of the poppy plant is an inl- portant industry in Macedonia. an in- dustry that brings excellent returns to the growers. Ittis said that besides the opium extracted. from the flowers. an oil is made from the. seeds which is superior to Russian sunflower oil and to American cottonseed oil. The re- sidiuin after the oil has been extracted is pressedS into cakes and used as food for cattle. Even in this time of war. it is said that this years poppy crop in Macedonia is abundant, and that the eXportatfon Of the opium ob- tained from the flowers is being car

 It is usually put on the market in subg1obu1ar. hattened. irregular cakes. chestnut brown. or dark shades of brown in color.

Against the Terrible Trachoma

 "The various counties have provided money for the rent of the houses which we hire. and in some cases have added small sums. Communities are begging us to establish hospitals where they can reach them. but we have not the men or the nurses the money to run them. Each hospital requires twenty beds. a physician who is a specialist In the treatment of eyeg, besides nurses and orderlies, and each costs about $8,000 a year.
 "A torpedo destroyer costs about $1.200,0O0, which is S20O.0O0 more than the total annual appropriations for. the public health service. Out of that amount 1t must maintain the marine hospital service. including a sanatoriun for tuberculous patients and quaran- tine at all ports of entry to the United States and our islands It has a stam of only 200 regular physicians and about 250 part-time men.

|oR forty-two years the Secretary tGJ of the Treasury. following the
 mandates Of congress. has been
 awarding annually a number of gold and silver medals. in recognition of exceptional daring or bravery shown through attempts to saveslives of peo- pie in danger of drowning There were twenty-four medals. all sflver- issued dnrins the past fiscal year.
 It was that father. mother and lover of the life-saving service, Sumner L Kimball. who had most to do with rec cmmending to Congress that these awards be placed or~a permanent basis: so encouraging not only civilians. but also the men who were little set apart from. their fellows in that they made a regular business of saving lives and belonged to the United States iife-saving service.
 On June 20. 1874: on June IS, 1878: on May 4, 1882. and January 2s. 1915. a special act of Congress gave approval to the continuance of the giving of medals for such purpose. And now that the life-Saying service is no more, eX- cept as 8 part of the coast guard. and the venerable Superintendent has retired the gold and silver symbols and what they represent seem to those who were friends of the old life-savfng service 10 enbody something of the spirit of its only superintendent.
