UNCLE SAM'S AIR FLEET.

Dispatches from the American front northwest of Verdun, the other day, contained the cheering news that Uncle Sam finally was putting into operation portion of that great air-fleet that has been in process of building for months on this side of she water. These reports mentioned that $50 American machines had par ticipated in successful and extensive bombing raid on German cantonments north of Verdun.
 Much has been said of Americas proposed air-fleet and her fliers, and great results have been expected from their operations as an aid to other military factors in the war. Some experts have expressed the opinion that our Cavalry of the air" would play an important part aside from bombing operations on German camps, intuition depots and military bases, in sweeping over the Hun armies and pouring destructive rain of mach inc gun bullets and shell fire upon the Hun soldiers rank with the effective ness of an artillery bombardment or infantry attack. Some experts have hinted that America's air-fleet would lead from the air, the assaults of the Allied armies upon German territory and cities.
 Accounts of the first independent American aerial expedition of large proportions mentioned in recent dis patches give renewed assurances that the United States army may be re- lied upon to do herxhare in adding to the Allies suprematysin the air, and

CAMP LOGAN ARMY
 OFFERS COMBAT SPANISH INFLUENZA

Houston, Tex, Oct 16.-The way the army officers of Camp Logan here are fighting to eradicate Span ish influenza and other contagious diseases leaves little more chance for a disease germ in camp than for an enemy alien.
 In the various units the camp six men are ,quartered in each tent If cue man is found to have com municable disease, he is sent at once to the base hospital, and care fully isolated, The other five men are sent to quarantine camp, talk ing with them all their bedding and clothing, which is carefully fumiga- ted.
 The quarantine camp has quarters arranged as in the company's street in the regiment. There is a section for each of the several conta gious di- seases that might develop, separate mess hall for each section, and se- parate bath houses. The entire quar- antine camp issurrounded by high wire fence, and there is a separate fence about each section, with five feet of intervening space, thereby preventing men in the influenza ca mp coming into contact with the measles or humps or whatever might occupy the adjoining section.
 Men sent to the quarantine section are known as contacts" and are confined under observation foe the period of the development of he suspected disease. If no symptoms appear. they are sent back to their respective quarters If the disease appears in the quarantine, the vic tim is isolated in the base hospitals and his tent mates assigned to diff ferent tents and again placed under careful observation.
 While in the quarantine, the men do not eat in the same mess hall, but take their mess kits to have them filled and return to their own tents to eat.
 A somewhat similar course fol- lows the arrival of each new contin- gent at camp. All the men are ex- amined carefully for communicable diseases before leaving their train.
 Recently this examination of a train load of selectives service men showed several to be affected with Spanish influenza and one with small pox. They were taken to the isola- ton hospital and the other men sent

These are to be distributed throughout the state. 'fte address that has been prepared en- phasizes the following points as worthy the consideration of the vot- CTS:
 Comprehensive and complete hi tative and Referendum.
 Equality of Suffrage.
 Abolition of Local Legislation.
 State Wide Prohibition.
 Merger of the Tax Commission and Railroad Commission into the Arkan- sas Corporation Commission.
 Creation of a Board of Pardors.
 Quadrennial elections.
 Four year terms for county off cers.
 Salary and four-year terms for members of the Legislature.
 Creation of the office of L;euten- ant Governor.

 On the question of Taxation, which was the most vexatious considered during the whole session of the Con- vention, the committee says:
 "The Constitutional Convention spent more time and labor on the ar ticle on taxation than on any other subject which came before the con- vention. It finally adopted the old Constitution with it's limitations on the taxing power. No greater taxes can be levied under the proposed Con stitution than under the old Consti- tuition. The limitations are the same but the convention added some three sections which in it's judgment makes our system of assessing taxes more practical, and it also provides. for reaching some property which has heretofore escaped taxation.

Protective Foods.

We have heard much in recent years
about two very important growth pro-
noting substances called vitamines,
which are said to be vitality necessary
for our well being One of these is found
in butter fat, milk, egg yolk, the leaves
of plants, glanduar organs, such as kid
neys, liver and sweetbreads; in traces
in the germs of seeds, muscle tissue, ami
NAL fats The other one is in almost
all foods, except bolted -four, degerminat
ed corn meal, polished rice, starch, sugars
and in fats and oils.
1t is no more of problem to get these
substances in our foed than it is to get
plenty of mineral matter in the same
way. In fact as far as the second one
of these growth promoting substances"
is concerned, there is almost nobody in
the United States who does not get it
without any special effort on his part.
In order to get plenty of mineral mat
ter and a good supply Of the first growth
promoting substance" we need only to
remember to eat plenty of milk and milk
products, and plenty of the leafy vege-
tables. These should be considered as
protective foods and we should eat some
Of them every day. They viii make good
the elements lacking IN bread, cereals,
potatoes and other tubers and in vege-
tables such as beets, turnips and rad
ishes.
Drink plenty Of milk. Eat all the pure
ice cream you want, provided you do not
run over your sugar allowance. Use but
ter and cheese. Make milk soups and
milk desserts Try to include one of the
following in your days meals Cabbage,
cauliaower, Swiss chard, collards, Brus-
sells sprouts, lettuce, celery, spinach or
onions.
If you happen to be one of those per-
sons who eats all of the salad but the
lettuce leaf mend your ways. For let
tuce is one of those leafy vegetables
which contain mineral salts absolutely
essential to the welfare of the body.
Do not let people tell you that lettuce
is not much of a food because its fuel
value is so low Mineral matter is just
as important as "calories"

AMERICANS GO AHEAD.
Have Made Longest Advance South
ward from Archangel.

Archangel, Tuesday Oct. /. By the As
ISOLATED Pres American troops now
hold the farthest point south reached by
any of the allied forces in the advance
southwark from Archangel, This point
IS small village thirty-tve miles south
of Shenkursk ON the river Viga. The
,bolsheyik stronghold of Velsk is about
40 miles away.
From the Velsk the bolshevik send out
small gunboats from which they land
parties to attack the Americans. The
bolsheviki, however, always flee to the
shelter of the gunboat when attacked.
The inhabitants near the American
advanced post are largely of bolsheyik
sympahties, as those opposed to the boil
shevili fled to Shenkursk to the potec-
ton of the allied and Russian forces.
A party of about one hundred peasants
is doing splendid work scouting for the
allies.
Thirty-fve miles south of Skenkursk
would place the Americans troops in
