sort of thinking that is being done
all over the country today by big
business men. l attended a meet
ing, not long ago, of men, from all
over the country who had gathered
to talk of nothing but means of pre-
venting industrial accidents and d.
sease And how they did talk! They
sat balanced on the front edges CT
their chairs and were as eager and
excited as a crowd at baseball
game with tie score in the. ninth
inning.
And there is a reason for excite
ment. Some Of these men have been
keeping books on their losses due
to sick and disabled workmen.
They have found that an absent
employe interferes seriously W h
the SIN Doth and profitable operation
of the entire plant. And they have
found that in some plants the num-
bers Of such absences have been cut
in two and a great saving effected
by proper attention. 1t is dollars

readers of this column were 1t not
for the fact that proportionately it
costs worker far more to be sick
than it does his employer. The big
thing for both to realize is that a
large proportion Of all sickness is
easily preventable. And realizing
that truth, it is foolish and reck-
less man who will take needless
chances on sickness and death.

Health Of Workers

The chief surgeon of the Chicago
and Northwestern Railroad made
the statement some time ago that
''the brainiest and most far seeing
employers are most active in health
movements among their employees
and in the development of health
departments as an important part
Of their great industrial organiza-
tions."
What be had to say about the
railroad operative in the following
sentence is doubtless just as true Of
any other man whose value rests
upon a we'll trained and skillful
mind and pair Of hands. The es-
pecially qualified and practically
trained employee is the greatest
asset of the modern railroad man
ager, and it is realized that the
greatest efficiency results from the
best protection of the health and
activity of the experienced employe.
These opinions from this man
who, doubtless, holds the position

RURAL SANITATION

AS times change, methods of bust
ness and habits of living change al,
so. In this modern age the farmer
has learned to apply machinery to
his farm and has come to view agri-
culture as a science. He has his
Farmers Institutes, and his County
Representative Of Agriculture.
Farm sanitation a n d hygiene
when applied to crops and cattle
have a new meaning to the farmer.
To drain a field, to erect silo, to
put a cement floor and ventilation
sytems in a barn, all of w h h
would have been derided by the old
time farmer, appear to his grand
son as a good business procedure.
For the expense of installation he
expects to reap MANIFOLD in profits.
Competition has forced the farmer
to introduce modern methods. If
he fails to keep up to the pace set
by more progressive nelghbor his
financial loss is apparent to all.
Just as surely the farmer is wax
ing to a realization Of the fact that
rural sanitation applies to his home
as we'll as to his barns; that fresh
air, of which there is such an album
dant supply in the country, is as
necessary to the health Of his fami-
ly, as it is to the health Of his chick
ems and mich COWS. A w a re f
what a scientifically balanced ra-
ton means for the health and pro-
ductiveness Of his cattle, he is ask
ing about scientific feeding of chill
dren.
Health-public as well as individ-
ual-is largely matter first Of edu-
cation, then habit. The great es-
sential requisites Of health-fresh
, air, sunshine, p | a n nour1shing
food and cleanliness are at the com
mand of nearly every person and
especially of those who are fortu-
nate enough to dwell in the country.
Ignorance and carelessness are &C.
countable for failure to use any or
all Of h ese requisites of good
health.
The good things that we haYe
always with us are apt to be under
estimated and neglected.
Sunlight may cost faded carpet;
fresh air, few more shovelfulls Of
coal. But what of that if they pur-
chase health?

Liberty Loan Activities

A conference was held in Wash

December 10, which lasted sever
al days, between Secretary Nc
Adoo and other Treasury officials
and representatives from Liberty
Loan organizations all over the
country, which included officials
of the Federal Reserve Banks.
Plans for future Liberty Loan
campaigns were perfected and an
organization at once wider and
closer was arranged for. Rural
communities and small towns and
small cities particularly will feel
the effect of the new campaign
plans.
Failure OF rural communities
to subscribe relatively as literally
as the metropolitan districts was
generally aScribed not to lack of
patriotism but lack of thorough
organization and intensive cam
paigning. In future campaigns
every agency will be used in the
rural districts as we'll as in the

tons will be very active and
hearty cooperation beween them
and the other organizations is as.

Revenue Collector
Here January 2Sth

Revenue Collector James COftey
of Aberdeen, S. D., advises the
Press that his Office will have q
representative in Kadoka from
January 28th to the evening Of
February lst, at the court house
to assist our citizens in making
out their reports under the recent
ly passed War Revenue Law. Fol
lowing we publish in full a synop
sis OF the law:
In addition to the regular in.
come tax law that has been in ef-
feet several years the Congress,
on October 3, 1917, passed a meas
ure known as the War Revenue
Law, the object being to procure
additional money with which to
carry on the war. The old in
come tax law provides that every
married person living with wife
or husband is allowed an exemp-
tion of $4,000 and every unmarried
person who is not the head of a
family is allowed an exemption
of $4,000 before they are required
to pay tax. The War Revenue
Law provides that every married
person living with wife Or hus-
band must pay a tax on that por-
ton of that persons net income
that exceeds $1,000 and that every
unmarried person not the head
of a family must pay a tax on
that portion of that persons net
income that exceeds $1,000. This
law is retroactive; that is, it be-
came effective Jan. |, 1917, so that

classes above described are re-

GOVERNMENT URGES USE
OF PERISHABLE PRODUCTS
Official Statement to Destroy MiscOn'
ceptiOn of Attitude.

In order that there may be no mis-
conception by the public of the atti-
tude of the food administration to-
ward the free consumption of per-
ishable foods, the following state
ment is given out, reaffirming the po-
stion of the food administration:
Foods of the "perishable products"
group are essential to nutrition, and
their continued production, distribu-
ton and consumption are vital, in
view Of national and international
necessities.
The food administration desires to
emphasize these facts, and to assure
all producers and handlers of milk
and dairy products, poultry and eggs,
fish, fruits, potatoes, and vegetables.
that no restrictions have been placed
on such food materials, or are likely
to be.
Since everyone must save for ex-
portaton wheat, meat, fats and
sugar, all should utilize more than
ever the bulkier, more perishable
products.
