Horse Feed Is Scarce;
Owners Give Up Stables

Sporting Life, London, says:
"American breeders have made
generous offer to send over to their
friends in misfortune in this country
sufficient supply of oats to enable
horses in training to be fed without
the home supply being encroached
upon at ALL"
The special commission, w. ALI
son, in commenting on the first days
sale of the Melton thoroughbreds,
says: "It is little short of wonder
full that buyers were forthcoming for
so many lots when the problem is
how to feed them. Referring to the
three-year-o fillies he says: They
did not sell so well as they should
have done but what can you expect,
with so long to wait before there is
q chance of turning any of them to
account? The only wonder is that
buyers were found. Plenty of people
would have refused them as gift,
for the advice of Mr.. Jorrocks-'Con-
found all presents wot eats is es-
pecially applicable to presents of
blood stock at this juncture."

Cincinnati, July S1-There will be
ia world series this fall despite the

CLEANED from the office Of Garry

and the Boston Red SoX, are owned
by men who will stick to finish
and will not let the great event get
by, the wise ones predict.

The world series will be played
this fall, and 1 hope the Reds will
be representatives of the National
League" said Garry Hermann, in
commenting on Johnson's statement
II doubt very much if Mr.. Johnson
has been quoted correctly in this mat
ter. 1t seems to me ridiculous to talk
about league being handicapped by
the loss of probably fifteen or twenty
players through the draft"

st. Louis, July 31.-Believing that
Umpire Byron called a third strike on
Tommy" Long in the game with
philadelphia yesterday because Long

erty of citizen stockholders, last night
issued the following signed appeal
for publication:
ITO those in attendance at the Car
dinal-Philadelphia game on Monday:
viii you please wire President
John K. Tener, No. s West Fortieth

pire Byron's work in st. Louis and
particularly your judgment as to his
decision on the rightfield hit or foul
by Long in the seventh inning?
The good of the game demands
that the president of the league
should be advised whether the
leagues umpires are doing good work
or bad work.

Abolish Player Limit
to Save Baseball Teams

Chicago, July 31.-Because of the
danger of losing star players drafted
for military service, President Hick-
ey, of the American Association, an
nounced that the player limit had
peen abolished. The clubs will be
permitted to carry as many players
as they desire. Heretofore they were
restricted to fifteen.
President Hickey explained that
several players are certain to be lost
in the draft, and to prevent the clubs
from being seriously weakened, new
players will be signed at once so as
to give the managers an opportunity
to try them out.
There is plenty of material avail
able, President Hickey said, from the
smaller leagues that have disbanded.

The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1917-03-05

The American tropics are being
brought into Gods country. The
mighty works accomplished for SAM
tation and good health by the United
States in the Canal Zone and at Ha-
vana during the American occupa-
ton have been duplicated in vast
fringe of country circling the Carib-
bean sea.
The people of the Caribbean lands
are not only making wide use of au-
tomobiles, street cars, concrete con-
struction, city lighting, and public
water supply systems but the prob
lens of sanitation and hygiene are
occupying their serious attention.
The largest, most thoroughly or
ganized and far-reaching work for
public health and sanitation ever I'M
dertaken by an American company
in the tropics has been successfully
carried on by the U;ited Fruit Com
pany. 1t is doubtful if any similar
work of equal magnitude has ever
been successfully attempted by a
private concern. Few governments
have ever. equalled or spproximated
it. We have nothing like this work
in the Philippines. The company has
almost fringed the Caribbean sea
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1917-03-05

with district hospitals. dispensaries,
and health camps. 1t has drained
vast areas of swampy land. 1t has
given hundreds of communities pure
water to drink. The work was un-
dertaken at an expenditure of mil
lions. Several hundred thousand dol
lars are required annually for its
maintenance.
In all the company's hospitals
there are fine physicians, many of
them bearing postgraduate honors
won at American and European uni
versities. The cumulative experience
of the hospital work-some of them
were started before our government
began it's sanitation in the Canal
Zone-makes the records Of great
value. Often visiting physicians
come for study and special research.
There are, too, American women
nurses who are doing a work as big
as that done on the battlefelds of
Europe.
Last year the medical divisions of
the company treated 10000 pa
tients. This does not mean that
there is a tremendous amount of ill
ness lurking around the Caribbean.
There isn't. General William c.
! Gorgas, after four months trip,
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1917-03-05

said: IL am convinced that neither
plague nor yellow fever exist any
where on the literal coast of the Ca
ribbean." But for the first time in
the history of many of these regions
thousands of persons are finding
hospital they can go to when they
are ill.
In it's medical divisions in Panama,
Costa Rica, Guatemala, Colombia,
Honduras, and Cuba, the. United
Fruit Company has IA hospitals and
"a dispensaries or medical stations.
Many of the patients have never
seen sheets and PILLOW cases before.
But they soon learn to like them and
the daily bath, too. Ninety-five per
cent of the native patients at the
company's hospital in Santa Marta
are found to have hook worms. Of
this ailment they are quickly cured.
The broad and enlightened policy
of this company cannot alone be
measured in dollars and cents. 1t
has brought to the company pres
tige in the American tropics that
money could not buy and to the
many American doctors, nurses and
sanitation engineers who have sue
cessfully fought the good fight it
has brought lifelong satisfaction.
