DRAINAGE DUE TO MOSQUITO
Saving of Millions Results From De-
termination of Status of Insect
by Army. Hospital Corps.

The National Chamber of Commerce
declares that had not the hospital
corps of the army definitely deter
mined the status of the mosquito and
thus caused menacing swamp lands To
be drained, 1t Is an open question
whether the building of the Panama
canal would have been possible.
In following up this work we find
that the United States, In draining
breeding places of the mosquito, has
reclaimed thousands of acres of land
and made them available for agri-
cultural purposes. There are approx
mately 100,O00,000 acres of swamp
lands in the country, where for years
the mosquito has held undisputed
sway, of which 100000, or about
one-elghth of the total area of the
country, can be reclaimed for the plow-
share. The only value Of swamp land
lies in its possibility OF reclamation !;
otherwise it is serious liability as a
breeder of disease.-Leslie's Weekly.

WORK WILL NOT HURT.

1t was Robert j. Burdette who said
My son, you have to work, whether
YOU handle pick or pen, wheelbar-
row or a set of books, ringing an
auction bell or writing funny things,
you must work. II you look around,
YOU will see the men who are the
most able to live the rest OF their
days without work are the men who
work the hardest.
Don't be afraid of killing yourself
With overwork. They die sometimes,
but it's because they quits work at u
p. m. and don't go home until a. m.
1t is the interval that Kills, my son.
The work gives you an appetite for
your meals, it lends solidity TO your
shmberS, and gives you u perfect and
graceful appreciation of holiday.
There are young men who do not
WORK, Tut the world is not proud of
them. 1t does not know their names
even; it simply speaks of them as "old
Sosndso's boys" The great, busy
world doesn't know that they are
there.
So lind out what you want to be
and do, take of yoll coat and make a
dust ia the world. The buster you
IRE the less harm you are apt to get
into, the sweeter and happier your hol
days, and the better satisfied will the
world be with you.

BIG CANALS IN MES0P0TAMIA
Bagdads Once Had the Most Remark.
able System of Irrigation That
Has Ever Been Constructed.

Many years ago great irrigation
schemes enabled Mesopotamia, Ar.
menia and other countries in the near
and middle East to become the seats
of empires in spite Of their arid eli
mates. Today, writes DR.. Arthur Sci
wyn-Brown in the Scientific American,
they have few cities of any Importance,
Bagdad, which has a population of
about 10000, had 100000 ten cen
turtles ago. The difference between
Mesopotamla then and today is the
result of the destruction Of the
canals.
In the height of its prosperity Bag
dad had the most remarkable system
of irrigation that has ever been
constructed. The canals about the
city measured over 5000 miles in
length.
There are others, both north and
south of the city, that joined the Eu-
pirates with the 1igris, and there were
several that ran parallel with the
rivers.
The largest was known as the
Chosroos canal. 1t was built in early
historical times to connect Bagdad
with the city of Dur, about 100 miles
north. Whenever this canal passed
through loose soil 1t was over 200 feet
in width and six feet'deep. Where the
ground became rocky 1t was reduced
to a width of 40 or 50| feet.
Between Dur and Bassora there
were over so trunk canals between the
Tigris and the Euphrates, and they ir-
rigated $1,000 square miles of rich
farming land.

TOPICS OF THE HOUR.

Every ~here the talk Is of war, and
people are beginning to realize that
we are now drawn into the war, ard
the war cloud hangs over our own
beautiful country TO the young
and ambitious and unlrled, war does
not carry the same meaning that II
does to the elderly aud the OLD. The
one class Is full of enthusiasm ana
desire to plunge into the swirIlng
storm, while to the other the war
means tears and heartache, renun
citation, and the giving up for the
Flags sake, the best of our young
manhood now, and, perhaps later,
the elders, the stay OF the home.
TO these come visions Of desolate
homes, scattered households, broken
and crippled bodies, and graves OF
our dearest. We, who have lived
through former wars, have thought
We realized wars cruelty; but never
nave there teen methods Of warfare
50 cruel, SO brutal, and SO savage.
Our one soace is that the dear Lord
has promised that the days shall
De shortened" and that war shall

agony has run its course. mot AS
we will" we try to say; but IT is
still hard for many OF US to say
Gas God wills The days are dark,
and We can not see the ending; but
over it all is the Fathers promise
that all will be well. In some way,
it is Gods purpose, and whatever
the s.crlBcc, We must learn TO real.

As t. Licensing Cats.

Senator Robinson, who recently in.

on the subject. He says no letter has
been received from any man which
does not either revlle cats or treat the
subject with leyity. All women who
write do so in serious protest. One
woman asked that license tags be
made ornamental.
