a million active cases In the coun-
try there are probably between two

This does not mean that there has
been any alarming increase in the

means, however, that new and more
accurate methods OF estimating the
range of disease are being used
This also involves n more complete
control In the military medical

THE housewife can be OF very
great service by seeing to 1t that
the garbage in her community Is not

end with keeping garbage clean, but

permit.

"Over $50 American cities OF be.

are not utilizing their garbage. Their
combined population exceeds $780,
600, and the utilization of their gar
bage as hog feed might yield 60.-
100000 pounds of pork. or course,
this garbage does not have to be
used for feeding hogs exclusively:
1t can be used as base for manu-
featuring cattle. sheep and poultry
feeds.
I'VE do not suggest that the gar
bage be hauled to the farmer, but
through clubs and organizations the
women could encourage the farmers
to send to town on certain days for
IT, The housewives could arrange
on these days to have their good,
clean garbage-garbage without
phonograph needles to puncture the
intestines Of the animals and with

housewife to have as little garbage

petermlnInn Ace Of Planets.

A novel idea In estimating the physl-
cal condition of planets was put forth
by NJ. Veronnet before the Academic
des Sciences at a recent meeting in
Paris. He based it upon a calculation
of the quantity of water that rocks
such as granite and porphyry absorb
before becoming perfectly dry.
He said that on the moon all water
has been completely absorbed by slow
diffusion as the rocks gradually cooled.
Venus is still surrounded by a thick
layer Of vapor, while no water has yet
been condensed on the surface of Mer-
curry, this planet being still in a con-
dition in which its geological life has
not begun, and consequently no clouds
have yet formed ON its surface.
NJ. Veronnet calculates that the
rocks Of our earth now contain abb
sorbed water which would cover the
earth to an average depth of about
400 metres.

Aviator Longs for Sound of Human
Voices When He is Soaring Far
Above tho Earth.

/ beeAme conscious of feeling Of
loneliness, writes James N. Hall, in the
Atlantic I remembered what J. +.
had said that morning. There was
something unpleasant in that isolation,
something to make one look longingly
down to earth; to make one wonder
whether we shall ever feel really at
home in the air. /, too, longed for the
sound of human voices, and all that
heard was the roar Of the motor and
the swish of the wind through wires
and struts-soundS which have no hui
man quality in them, and are no more
companionable than the tapping of the
waves would be to a man adrift on
raft in midocean. Underlying this feel
ing, and, no doubt, in part responsible
for 1t, was the knowledge of the fall
libility of that seemingly perfect
mechanism which rode so steadily
through the air; of the quick response
which that ingenious arrangement of
inanimate matter would make to an
eternal and inexorable law, If few
frail wires should part; of the equally
quick, but less phlegmatic response Of
another fallible mechanism, capable of
registering horror, capable, it is said.
Of passing its past life In review In the
space Of a few seconds, and them
capable Of becoming equally inanimate
matter.
