THREE MILLION JARS
SHIPPED DURING
OCTOBER.

On Monday. October 81, we ad-
dressed an advertisement to the
wholesale and retail drug trade. ad-
vising that we were badly oyersold
due to the influenza epidemic. stat
ing that all deals and quantity
shipments were postponed. and re-
questing that VapoRub be purchased
in small lots only. This condition
still prevails.
At this writing we have back Cr-

double our daily output. The cpl

most sections. the demand is slack

This Is now gone-we actually
shipped during the month OF Octo-
Der over three million Jars of vapo-
Rub. We are speeding up our fac

problem now is TO distribute the

Ow TO USE NAPORUB IN
TREATING SPANISH

In every case call a physician-

, Apply hot, wet cloths over the
throat. chest and back between the
shoulder blades to open the pores.
Dry lightly and rub VapoRub we'll
in until the skin is red-spread on
thiCkly and cover with hot flannel
cloths. Leave the bed covering loose
around the neck. as the body heat
releases the ingredients in the form
of vapOrs. These Yapors, inhaled
with each breath. stimulate the lin
ing OF the air passages to throw off
/ the influenza germs. In case of
head or chest cold, which often ac-
companies influenza. the vapOrs tend
/ to keep the air passages open, loosen
the phlegm and make the breathing
easier. In addition, VapORub is alb
sOrbed through and stimulates the
skin, attracting the blood to the
surface. and thus aids in relieving
the congestion within.
HOW TO USE vICK's vAPORUB AS
A PREVENTIVE.
1t is questionable II there is any
NulHb which Will prevent spanish
Influenza, except avoiding those
persons who are spreading the dis
ease by coughing, sneezing and
splitting. and by keeping up the bod
lily resistance by plenty of good
food and exercise in the open air.
The Public Health Service recon-
mends that the nasal passages be
coated with a weak solution of
Menthol in liquid petroleum as
protective. For this purpose Vapo-
Rub is excellent. Just put a small
portion up each nostril from time to
time during the day and snuff well
back into the head.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS BY IN
HALING NAPORUB.
Colds irritate the lining of the air
passages and thus render them
much better breeding place for the
germs. At the first signs of a cold
use VapoRub at once. Melt a little
in a spoon and inhale the vapors
arising, or VapoRub can be used in
regular benzoin steam kettle, such
as most druggists carry in stock.
1flthis is not available, a very good
substitute to use is an ordinary tea
kettle. Fill half-fuIl of boiling
water-put in half a teaspoon Of
NapoRub from time to time-keep
the kettle just slowly boiling and

GETS
 NEWEST DEFINITION

Selling goods on a replacement value cred profiteering, according to a state ment issued by the office of farm equipment of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, which ad- ministers the licensing of the farm equipment industry, under the food control act.
 Copies of the statement have been received at the farm bureau of Mari copa county. The statement reads:
 Farm equipment held, contracted for, or arranged for, by any manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer or other dealer, in excess of the reasonable requirements of this business, for use or sale by him in a reasonable time, is considered hoarding, under the meaning of the Act of Congress approved August 10, 1917, to provide further for the national security and defense by encouraging the production, conserving the supply. and controlling the distribution of food products and fuel
 Any farm equipment that is hoarded cannot be considered under this ruling, the statement says, but will be dealt with under the act. according to the merits of each particular case. The prices of farm equipment are more or less seasonal. but if the price should rise or faA during the season, then, to be consistent, a person who wishes to sell on the basis of replace ment values would be obliged to sell at a loss if the price fell. Equipment car ried over from one season to another, that is the residua from a previous sea sons reasonable supply-should be considered in the same manner. There l fore, if persons have sold at replace ment values, they must continue to do so when a drop in prices comes, and carry the same amount of stock as in the beginning throughout the period of the high prices in order not to profiteer.
 In short, says the statement, it will not be considered profiteering if farm equipment is sold on the basis of re- placement prices, provided the goods sold are replaced at once at replace ment prices and this practice is con- tinued during the period of high prices caused by the war.
 It will be considered profiteering ii manufacturers. wholesalers, retailers or other dealers having a regular stock Of farm equipment, sell out at replace ment value during rising prices with out replacing values when prices are falling. Manufacturers, wholesalers retailers or other dealers, desiring tc sell out without replacing, shoud sel at cost price pus fair usual profit.

 In the Copper mountain district, the Big Bug Copper company is moving a gas hoist from a property which the company owns north of the Blue Bell mine to the shaft which is being sunk on the northeast side of Copper noun tain on another property owned by the company. At a depth of 70 feet, ore fills the shaft bottom, the grade being in the shipping class.

Tucker, who represents a large interest in the Bar bara mine, came from Bisbee this week to confer with the owners of the prop erty in Mayer on proposed sale of the mine. The Christmas group, owned by the Jerome Copper company, has been bonded to New York parties and ship ments of ore from the surface work ings to the Humboldt smelter have been arranged for.
