War Cause of Increase.

Mr.. Sailer says that the examples
might be continued indefinitely, that
almost every drug used by the physi-
clan has increased greatly in price.
1.-The war is the cause of practically
all these increases" said Mr.. Salier,
because the greater number of the
drugs we use come from Central Eu-
rope, Germany and Austria. Bella
donna is an example. 1t grows wild
there, as do other drugs. We are be-
ginning to raise some belladonna in
this country now, but we cannot pay
labor to produce it and we sell it at
the price at which we formerly sold
it when we got the wild herb from
Europe. We are growing some cas-
cara in the State of Washington now.
But labor is being paid so we'll for
other tasks that it is difficult to get
people to gather it. Arnica comes
from Europe. where it grows wild.
we formerly got all our potash
from Germany. We are now getting
some of it from the West, but, since
it enters into the manufacture of ex-
plosives. it is high. We have always
imported our mercury from Germany.
We have small deposits of it in Ari-
IONA and Mexico, but they have never
been worked. We have always i'm
ported our glycerine from Germany.
We can make it here, but it enters
into the manufacture of explosives.
Asa fafida eomaS from Persia Sumo of
the drugs come from Africa. Difficult
ties of shipping make these high.
at is unlikely that the greater num-
Der Of these drugs will be very much
lower until year or two after the
end of the war"

PRICE OF DRUGS
NEVER So HIGH.
Most Medicines Based On Drugs
Brought From Germany
And Austria.
SUPPLY CUT OFF BY WAR.
Drugs Being Produced Here, But
Cost Of Labor Keeps
Prices Up.
SUPPLY CUT OFF BY WAR

Taking medicine was never so cost
ly as it is today
Starting with gradual increases at
the beginning of the war, the prices of
practically all the drugs which form
the foundations of the most common
medicines in the most general use
have scared out of sight.
An example is belladonna leaves,
the foundation of atropine. which is
used by all eye specialists in making
examinations Of eyes. The normal
price before the war was 20 cents a
pound. They have been as high as 50
pound and are now selling for $3.50
pound. The belladonna root, used
chiefly for plasters, sold before the
war for 10 cents a pound. 1t now
sells for $3.50.

Kaniiah Progress: There can be
no neutrality between a citizen and
his own country. No man can be
against his nation when his nation
is fighting for its life and remain a
man, and no one can libel any of its
w'r agencies and be a desirable citi-
zen. Nor is there any excuse for a
citizen to BIZ deluded by German lies.
When citizen hears some wild rum
or, more or less plausible, the effect
o. which is to occasion doubt or dis
content, let him notify a ,7aemhe- >
the council of defense, and ask him
If II is true. Most lies Keep in circu-
lation only because they are not SER
