 There has been no restriction on the sales of such sugars to manufac- turers, and there has been no attempt on the part of the Administration to force such holders to take a loss, and the only reason that the large volume of sugar just now released was not available sooner was because permis- sion to use 1t had to be obtained from France, the British Royal Commission, and neutral countries.

DEPARTMENT
THE SIMMER CAMPAIGN.

With everybody thinking, thinking
and dreaming of our war with Ger
many are we losing sight of the war
that we must always wage against
disease and its allies the fly and the
MOSQUITO? Now that summer mas
come at last we must see to 1t that
we do all we can to keep disease out
of the homes. Everyone is talking
and thinking of helping his country
in every way. What better way can
be found for you to help than by keep
ing yourself and your family well!
Our doctors are needed very badly at
the front both for our own and our al
lies soldiers, and if we keep them at
home taking care of us it means that
we cannot send the sorely needed aid
Do you know that the Haywood coun
ty death rate for babies under two
years from preventable causes is eX-
tremely high? What is the matter?
Something must be decidedly wrong!
In our babies lie the future Of our
country so we must do something to
help them, and do it at once. Sup
pose we start by waging war on flies
and mosquitoes. They may carry the
germs of many kinds of disease, as
consumption, malaria, yellow and ty-
phoid fever, dyesentery, summer
complain"
Flies are bred in dirt. They seek out
garbage pals, manure heaps, water
closets and similar unclean places.
From these dirty places they fly into
the house, crawl over the food or the
nipple on the baby's bottle, They may
fall into milk and wash off germs
there. On the food they touch they
may leave germs Of typhoid fever and
other serious diseases. Fly specks
are not only dirty but dangerous. AL
ways wash the nipple of baby's bottle
if it should fall on the floor.
Mosquitoes breed in the damp,
swampy places, and they also breed in
small collection of water that are to
be found in back yards. Some carry
malaria and.some yellow fever germs.
Prevention of harm from them is
comparatively easy. The home should
be cerefully screened early in the sea-
son. If the regular window screens
cannot be bought plain mosquito net
ting can be tackled up so that it COW
ers the whole window. This will serve
to keep out the flies and mosquitoes

tin cans, buckets, ETC., in the yard that
the recent rains have left filled with
water are emptied so that mosquitoes
can not breed in them. See that any
ponds or puddles near you have oil
poured on them. A little coal oil IS
sufficient to make large pond mos
quito free.
Swat the fy-also the mosquito.
See that all food is kept as cool as
possible and carefully covered between
meals. Fruit that is rotting, whether
it is fruit, milk, or meat, always con-
tains germs which attack the body and
cause sickness. Children are especial
ly apt to have stomach and bowel trou-
bic from spoiled food.

other agencies will not prove satisfac-

had no experience in farm work. In
other cases they will not have as good
character as the farmer likes to have
in the labor he employs, but the far

can we'll afford to take chances, espe-

of them will draw real prizes.
