with zinc that they will be preserved
from rust for many years. Thes,
methods are less expensive and more
satisfactory than the present practice
Of repeatedly painting exposed iron
and steel with mineral paints. This
use Of zinc alone could consume all the
present production and more-if the
value Of the process were fully real
lied. The steel framework of Office
buildings and other buildings and
structures soon rust and their useful
ness is comparatively short. A zinc
coated frame or bridge should last q
thousand years. These structures cost
large sums of money. The costs of
iron and steel are rapidly increasing.
Why not coat iron and steel with zinc
and preserve them practically for
ever?
Sulphur
0ver'259c Of zinc sulphide ore u.s.
ually is pure sulphur, the principal
use Of which is the manufacture of
sulphuric acid, "The King of Chemi-
calls" the base Of all other manufac-
tured acids and used in the manufac-
ture of fertilizers and explosives.
Telephones
One side of the galvanic battery,
which sounds the thrill of electric life
through the telephone, feeds upon and
slowly consumes bars Of zinc.
Tin
The Worlds supply of tin is being
rapidly exhausted. Zinc is rapidly
taking the place of tin. Fortunately
there are few uses of tin for which
zinc cannot be substituted.
TOmbstOnes
Zinc is also extensively used in
tombstones, especially for
tropical countries where the climate
destroys marble and granite.
TypeMetal
Large quantities of zinc are used in
type-metal and stereotype
plates, zinc being n very important
constituent of that alloy. 1t is also
used in the manufacture of Babbit or
white metal.
Wood Preservation
Zinc chloride is used extensively by |
railways for the preservation of wood
A solution Of the zinc cholride is fore
ed into the pores of the wood by hy-
lraulic pressure. The life of timber
IS prolonged by this treatment two or
-hree times its usual length.
Future Uses
This wonderful metal yields to my
-iads of mechanical and chemical
.reatments, and readily conforms to
he uses of man. 1t is the handmade
If chemistry, the man-servant of me-
.hanics, the body-guard of iron and
teel, and the everlasting metal of
mankind. It's uses will vastly multi
'ly in number and greatly increase in
Quantities as they become known and
he more destructive metals oXidize
nd vanish away. Zinc. indestructable ;
nd eternal, will save the world from
metalless age. Zinc, pure, strong
nd useful, will endure until the end
f time.
Demand Increasing
The industries, science and arts
n which zinc is used are modern and
In some of them zinc is
necessity for which there is no sub
titute. In more Of them zinc is of
rowing Importance. The demand for
inc is rapidly expanding. The costs
{ production will be reduced by i'm
roved processes and more economical II
ethods until zinc will become the un-
ersal metal. II
In this booklet on uses of zinc are
lpted some of the best authorities of
lis country, viz:

RULES FOR coMPLsoRY
VACCINATION

NHSSsNS' sSN Dr. H. H. haghart has received the following communication from the State Superintendent of Public Health regarding compulsory vaccination, which should be read and its proyis- ions complied win:
 | You are hereby instructed 10 not allow children who have not bael sue cessful!y vaccinated within five years past against smallpox to attend school. This is not to be construed 10 mean that you may temporarily permit chil- dren to be in school pending such time most suitable for parents or guardians to have the vaccinations performed.
 The same rule applies to teachers. Opposition to this order is opposition to the program of the War Department.
 ?. Kindly have each teacher make list in duplication of all pupils show ing date of last successful vaccination. age, color and residence. one copy 70 be mailed to County Superintendent of Health and one to this office.
 3. In carrying out these regulations every effort should be made to prevent the engendering of -liagonism there to. Endeavor. please, to see that the actual facts are known 10 both the children and parets Of both smallpox and vaccination.
 4 The facts are as follows:
 Smallpox may be very terrible and disfguring disease. The death gate in some epidemics is very nigh. Severe cases may develop from mild ones. Anyone with badly pock-mark- cd face is to be pitied.
 The medical profession is striving diligently to eliminate smallpox from the face of the earth. If all the people of the world were to be vaccinated every five years for the next thirty years or perhaps esen less. there would be no more small pox and fur ther need of vaccination.
 Vaccination is safe if jus; reason able cleanliness is exercised during and following the vaccination In the past 12 years 3l.000.0O0 vaccinations have been performed. and there have been no serious complications proven to have come from the vacinations
 In years long gone by there were some ugly complications. but these were from the lack of the proper clean Illness.
 ,. The vaccination should be done by a doctor or surgically trained nurse nt NdcclHdliJH SHouiu nave attention after the sore develops and until well.
 6. School physicians are almost a necessity in this day of preventive medicine We are now trying to pre- vent disease instead of only trying 10 cure it. If you have no regularly em ployed physician, get one. If you have TO money to pay one. borrow it. till you are able 10 raise the money to pay him Each child shoull be care fully examined at least twice each school year.
