War and Birth Rates.

In his recent presidential address to
the Royal Statistical society. Sir Ber-
nard Mallct declared that the United
Kingdom has lost by the fall In births
during the war more than 100000
potential lives. During the same period
he estimates that Germany has lost
100000 and Hungary 100000. The
great decline In the birth rate In the
central powers Is ascribed to the fact
that the poorer classes In those cOun-
tries have suffered greatly In health
and vigor on account of the war. while
the corresponding classes In Great
Britain have actually enjoyed more ia
vOrable conditions than In time OF
peace.-Scientiflc American.

ADJUSTMENTS IN WAR TIME

lie who devotes all of his time to
things frivolous is not to be commend
ed, either during peace or war. Still a
certain amount of recreation is essen
tial to the welfare of the public and of
the individual. Indeed, it is more nee
essary that recreation be provided in
time of war, when the entire nation is
working under heavy strain, than in
time of peace, when the country is not
laboring under such terrific pressure.
1t IS unfortunate that there are per-
sons who condemn amusements and en-
tertainments as not in keeping with
present-day conditions. True, our chief
concern today lies in subduing the Hun,
but neither the American people nor
any people can long preserve its power,
if energy is constantly absorbed, and
little or no opportunity is provided to
replenish the waste.
Clean, decent, uplifting amusements
ana entertainments are essential, ana
cannot help but have a wholesome eff
feet on the individual, and therefore on
the nation. Recreation and relaxation
constitute tonic for the weary, and
when taken in moderate doses the result
is most beneficial.
Recreation is necessary in the army
and the navy in order to preserve the
morale of the fighting men. 1t is nee
essary at home that we may not exhaust
our brain and Drawn, but conserve our
powers and utilize them judiciously and
to the best interest of all. We must
have balanced rations of work and play,
as well as of food, lest we reach the
point of utter exhaustion.

U. S. CASUALTIES IN FRANCE

Seven hundred thousand American
soldiers now are in France, Secretary of
War Baker has announced. This vast
number of soldiers has been placed over
seas in less than a year, and from the
increasing length of the American daily
casualty lists, it is evident that more
and more Americans are taking places
on the battle line. Yet, Americas loss
es on the firing line have been insight
ficant, compared with those suffered by
the allies, even now, week by week, quite
forgetting losses incurred previous to
participation in the war by American

1tANANAc
Our total losses to Sunday, as given
out by the war department, are 1915,
divided as follows;
Killed in action Gneluding POI at
sea- 1893; died of wounds, 80; died
of disease, 1892; died of accidents and
other causes, 1872; wounded in action,
1916; missing in action (inculding
prisoners), $40.
More men, it will be seen, have died
of disease, accidents, and other causes,
than have been killed in action or died
of wounds. Yet the percentage of
losses from disease among the oversee
forces is far less than deaths by disease
in previous wars in which the United
States has engaged, This is due to inn
proved sanitation and modern methods
of combating epidemics. but even to-
day, the danger from bullets seems to b
less than that from disease, and for that
reason there should not be any parti-
cular fear on the part of the individual
of the danger of war. Many will die
from bullets, many will die from disease,
yet out of 100000 men, many would die
in civil life.

HIGHER RAIL RATES

The order of Director General Nc
Adoo of the railroads of the United
States under government operation, in
creasing freight and passenger rates,
affects Idaho only insofar as freight
rates are concerned.
The passenger rate Of cents mile,
long in force in the western states, has
been made applicable to the railroads
of the entire country, the advance TAX
ing effect on June 10. An extra fare
and tax thereon, in addition to the reg
ular Scent fare and tax, however, is re-
quired of all who ride in Pullman cars,
this fare being in addition to the regu-
lar Pullman fare and tax on Pullman
tickets.
The advance in freight rates becomes
effective June "a, and amounts to 25
percent. Objection to the increase in
freight rates in Idaho has been raised
on the ground that this state already
is paying higher freight rate than
are neighboring states.
If the federal government finds it
necessary to increase by virtually 80
percent railroad passenger rates through
out the United States, and by 20 per-
cent the freight rates, one is not re-
uuired to think twice to understand
why, pressed on the one side by the
labor unions and on the other by the
numerous restricting state and national
laws, the railroads, under private opera
ton, have been reluctant to extend
their lines into the rich but undeveloped
sections of the far west. The west
needs more railroads, and it is to be
hoped that, after the war, they VIII
come. But we cannot expect the rail
roads to spend millions of dollars IN
construction work throughout the west,
unless they are assured that they will
receive fair return for their investment.
IT occurs that the railroads, although
they have as a whole been guilty in the

On the number of men in Glass l, and it
Is said that credits for enlistments have
been allowed. At any rate, in some OF
tho eounties, the draft has exhausted
tbe men in Glass l, and under govern
meut regulations Glass 2 men cannot be
called until all Glass l men have been
exhausted, regardless of district or
county. Therefore, the counties of
Idaho in which Glass ! men remain, are,
in the June draft called upon for men
to fill not only the quotas which they
would regularly be asked to provide,
but they must fill the deficiency caused
by absence of Glass l men in certain
counties of the state.
At this time, it is significant
that, at the request of Governor Alexan-
der, Herman H. Taylor of Standpoint,
secretary for the first district exemption
board for North Idaho has investigated
action taken by the local draft boards
for Boise and Ada county, and the
district board for southern Idaho, with

that they are entitled to deferred
classification.

GLASS STAINED BY X-RAYs
Experiments Have Shown. These Pro.
duce the Same Effect as the
Light of the Sun.

It is well known that glass exposed
for long to sunlight acquires a violet
tint. In very old houses the windows
facing south are often distinctly vio-
let, Experiments recently made in the
laboratories of the General Electric
company at Schenectady with X-rays
prove that these can be used to dye
glass in many colors, principally an
amethystine violet and an amber yell
low, but also green and bright yellow.
These eolors, according to Mr.. Ro-
senthal, who conducted the expert
ments, are due to notifications of the
physical structure of the glass and not
to chemical alterations. The color can
be made to penetrate to any desired
depth, from a mere surface tint to
complete celebration of the entire SUBJ
stance. And the same method can be
applied to tinting porcelain, enamel
and precious stones,
An interesting and important fact
about this glass that has been colored
by long exposure to X~rays is that it
becomes impervious to the radiations
that have transformed 1t. Thus it can
be used as q protection against the
glare of the sun or the snow and
against the X-rays themselves,
