STRICT REGULATION
FOR EXPLOSIVES
Manu- acturers and Dealers Must OBJ
tain License From the Federal
Government.

The Federal explosives act, which
became effective in the United States
Nov. Is, provides for the most rigid
regulation of persons manufacturing,
selling or using explosives or ingre-
dients thereof. Any person, firm or
corporation dealing or handling ex-
plosives, aside from ammunition for
shotgun or rifle, must obtain Ii
cense from the Federal government.
Permits will be issued by inspectors
appointed by the government to act
in every locality.
The act is interpreted as being far
reaching in it's scope as it involves
all persons connected with the use
of explosives or any ingredient used
in the makeup of explosives. Even
packing houses will be forced to Sc
cure licenses, as saltpeter is used in
preserving meats.
The law provides that all manufac-
turers, vendors, foremen, exporters,
etc., shall keep an itemized record of
sales, issues, or other dispositions
made. Sales are not allowed to be
made to alien enemies.

FIREmEN NEEDED FOR

The Minneapolis Navy Recruiting
Station, which covers the States Of

been assigned quota of $50 firemen.
These men must be obtained before
December 18th if our new ships are
to be sent to sea with their full COM

Experience is not necessary in or

although previous experience at fir
ing would make advancement quick

burn oil exclusively, and it can be
readily seen that firemen aboard these
modern ships do not have to shovel
any coal. A man in the Engineering
Department rarely works longer than
8 hours out of "a.
Firemen receive from $36 20 to
$46.50 per month besides their ex-
|penses and clothing allowance, and
have unlimited opportunities for adj
vancement to ratings that pay as
high as $145.70 per month. Many

FIRST STEAMERS ON LAKES

The first steamboats, on the Great
Lakes were launched 101 years ago
on Lake Ontario. Two craft operat-
ed by steam were constructed in
1916 on the shores of the latter lake,
one being the Ontario, built at Sack
etts Harbor, N. Y, and the other the
Frontenac, which was launched at
Ernestown, Canada, on September Z,
1916. The Frontenac was one of the
finest steamboats, af1oat at that time
1t cost $4,000, and was of 7OO-tons
burden, it's length of deck being ITO
feet. The Frontenac was placed in
operation 100 years ago, making 3
round trips each month from Kings
ton to York and Niagara Capt.
James Mckenzie, who had had ex-
perience in the British navy, was
placed in command. The Frontenac
was in service on Lake Ontario for
ten years, and soon had several RI
walls for the lake traffic.
A fare of SIS was charged from
Kingston to Niagara for first-class
passengers, but deck passengers
were carried for $3.75 a head. The
freight rate was ~ shillings per bar

The. first steamship on Lake Erie
was the Walk-in-the-W Water, which
was launched at Black Rock, near
Buffalo, in 1918.

OAlBINATlON OR0BRED
LIVE STOCK SHOW AND SALE
Tho Equity Co-0psrative Exchange
Wifi Hold on December nth and 81
: 18th First Live Stock Show. zs

: For anumber of years the North
western farmers have realized that
they must change their system of
farming and raise more live stock,
show held at a time of the year
and combination public sale and
when the farmers are through with
their years work is very important
as it gives the farmers q chance to
attend and compare the merits of
the different breeds.
It is possible for the small buyer
working on a limited capital to ira
vel over much country in search of
his requirements. He can neither
spare the time nor money for max
ing such trips but must resort to
letter writing to find the breeding
stock he wants, and that at best is
very unsatisfactory and results many
times in disappointment and financial
loss.
This combination Show and Sale
held at the close of the years work
will solve the problem of the North
western farmers. The small breeder
who has but a few head to offer can
i'll afford to advertise on a large scale
but all can consign their stock to a
live stock show and sale that is we'll
advertised, and the buyers from far
and wide can meet the sellers face
to face at such gathering, and the
one trip to South St. Paul with the
loss of only a few days time will
SATISFY both the breeder who has
stock to sell and the farmer who
wishes to purchase few heads for
his requirements. Thus the Show
and Sale will serve the needs. Of the
small breeder with stock to sell and
it will help the small farmer to pur-
chase his breeding stock.
This, the first annual sale of one
of the largest farmers organizations
Of the Northwest, will be open to all
breeds and it is anticipated that this
show and sale conducted annually
at the close of the years work when
the farmers of the Northwest can
all attend will revolutionize the pure
bred live stock industry of the
Northwest.
The Sale this year is already an
assured success. Many entrees are
being received and some of the best
breeders of the Northwest will be
represented and the largest number
of buyers that ever attended show
and sale at South St. Paul will be on
hand to make their purchasers.
A farmers meeting will be held on
the evening of December 18th at St.
Paul and will be addressed by Gov
ernor Frazier of North Dakota, Col.
March of Litchfeld, Minn., and J. M.
Anderson, President Of the Equity
Cooperative Exchange.
If you have stock which you would
like to have sold at this sale write
at. once to the Equity Cooperative
Exchange, Live Stock Department,
Live Stock Department, South St.
Paul, but if you wish to purchase
stock arrange now to be in South St.
| Paul December 18th and 18th.

WARM WATER CUTS the.
DAIRY FEED BILL

AS a means of increasing the milk
flow, the United States food admins
traitor through the federal food ad-
ministrator for Minnesota is urging
warm drinking water for dairy stock.
Warm water will save feed and bene-
fit the milk flow. 1t saves feed be-
cause it does not draw on the vital
ity of the cow as does cold water.
It helps the milk flow because COW
will not reach her maximum produc-
ton unless she Kinks water album
dainty. She will not drink as: much
as she should if the water is ice cold.

WHAT IS TUBERC UL0SlS WEEK.
Scope, Plan and Aim of National Movement
December End to 9th, 1917. -
Scope Of the Movement.

tuberculosis Week is an annual
educational movement, conducted un-
der the direction of the National As
ISOLATION for the Study and Proven
tion of tuberculosis. It is an inten-
sive campaign to secure within a
weeks time a simultaneous presen-
tation of the subject of tuberculosis
before the greatest possible number
of people Throughout the United
States. Included in the scope of the
movement are plans for having the
sub ect of tuberculosis and health
presented to every club, lodge,
grange, school, church and other CT
vic and social organization through
out the country.
Plan.
In order to result in the maximum
amount of education the program
must be as elastic as possible. It
must be fitted to the needs of a par
ticular community. The National
Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of tuberculosis has, however,
provided for three special days,
which, in most localities, can be cele-
brated in all parts Of the country on
the dates planned. These are: Med
ical Examination Day, Thursday, De-
cember 9Th Modern Health Crusade
Day, Friday, December 9TH, and Tu-
berculosis Sunday, which may be OBJ
served at the beginning or at the end
of the week, December I'd to 9th.
Medical Examination Day, Dec. 9Th.
Never before in the history of the
world has the Importance of physi-
cal fitness been so clearly revealed
by thorough medical examination as
in these days of war and army mob
ilization. Hundreds of thousands of
men who had for years thought
themselves perfectly fit have been
rejected for military service because
of defects or impairments of the
body which they never suspected
And the tragedy of this situation is
that in, by far the greater percent
age of cases, these diseases could
have been avoided by periodic me-
dical examination at least once a
year. Medical Examination Day on
December 9Th will be an effort to in.
duce every man, woman and child to
have an annual examination. Not
every one who wishes it can be ex-
amined on DECEMBER 9Th, but the
movement can be agitated and popu-
larized on that day and people can
be taught it's significance and i'm
portance.
Modern Health Crusade Day.
Modern Health Crusade Day, De.
cember 7th, will be devoted to in.
teresting the children through the
schools in the tuberculosis and pub.
lie health movement. The impor.
lance II lnstructlng children in per
sonal hygiene and in showing then
how they can raise the health stand
ards of their communities cannot be
too strongly emphasized. This day
will give an opportunity to- enlist
school machinery definitely in the tu
berculosis campaign. By using
health plays, talks, composition con
tests, motion pictures and specia
programs, and by interesting the
children in Red Cross Seals, the day
can be celebrated in helpful way
Special instructions on the organiza
ton of local leagues of Modern
Health Crusaders will be given by
The National Association for thu
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo
sis.

Tuberculosis Sunday I. Undenomina-
tionaI.

tionsl.
/ The elimination of the weeks
campaig nwill be the celebration of
tuberculosis Sunday, with special
emphasis on the part of churches
and religious bodies in public health
work. tuberculosis is an undenom-
national and nonsectarian move
ment. 1t has in past years, and will
this year, reach Jew and Gentle,
Protestant and Catholic, and all pos
sible religious groups within these
organizations. 1t has received the
endorsement of leading church dig
nitaries of almose every creed and
denomination. The elasticity of the
observance Of this day should also
be emphasized. For those worshipp-
ing on Saturday, December 9th, this
day may be set aside. If the church
calendar permits it more readily, De-
cember Sd, the beginning of Tubercul-
osis Week may be observed. 1t is
not required that special sermons be
: preached on the subject of tubercul-
osis, though this may often be desir-
able. A brief talk in connection
with some service, a discussion be-
fore a young peoples society or some
other special group, an oral or
printed announcement is sufficient
to answer the requirements.
A General Suggestion.
For other organizations, such as
lodges, clubs, oranges, civic and So
cial bodies, it is planned to interest
them in considering the subject at
some meeting during tuberculosis
Week. The days from December I'd
to 9Th should, in other words, be a
time when the subject of tuberculo-
sis may be presented nationally with
unusual force othe religious, civic
and social organizations of the coun-
try.
Aim.
The fundamental aim of Tuberculo-
sis Week is educational It is not
essentially for the purpose Of secur-
ing funds for anti-tuberculosis work,
although in some communities spe-
cial collections may be taken. EN-
phasis is laid primarily on the great
good which will come from. an in
creased knowledge of the nature of
the disease and the methods of pre-
vention. Last year over 100000
churches and other organizations
helped to spread the gospel of good
health during tuberculosis Week.
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis believes that this year churches
and additional thousands of organi-
cations -religious and social[will
assume responsibility for helping to
educate the public on the subject of
tuberculosis.
Literature and Suggestions.
Special circulars on Medical Exam.
ination Day, Modern Health Crusade
Day and tuberculosis Sunday have
been prepared. Clergymen, teachers
physicians and laymen who desire
these circulars or other literature
for the preparation of sermons or
talks, or for distribution to .audien-
ces during tuberculosis Week, may
secure them without charge in most
cases, from the secretaries of their
local anti-tuberculosis associations;
or, if this is not possible, from the
