"Epidamics of influenza have visited
this country since 1917. 1t is interest

was brought here from Valencia,
Spain. Since that time there have
been numerous epidemics Of the dis

of Influenza, starting somewhere in the
Orient. spread first to Russia and
thence over practically the entire civ
flied world. Three years later there
was another Aare-up Of the disease.
Both times the epidemic spread wide
~ over the United States.
"Although the present epidemic is
called Spanish influenza there is no
reason to believe that il originated in
Spain Some writers Who have studied
the question believe that The epidemic
came from The Orient and thef call at

mention the disease as occurring along

How can Spanish influenza" be rec

There is as yet no certain way In
which Il single case OF Spanish inilu-
en%a' can be recognized On the 9TH
err hand, recognition is easy where
there is a group Of cases. In contrast
to the outbreaks of ordinary coughs
and colds. which usually occur in the

may occur at any season Of the year.

(fever. pain, depression) are by no
means as severe or as sudden in their

so extensively as does influenza.
in most cases a person taken sick
with influenza feels sick rather sud-

with this comes a fever in which the
temperature rises to 100 to 104. In
most cases the pulse remains relative

fact that the patient looks sick. His

there may be some cough. These signs
of cold may not be marked; never

EMBARGO ON
COAL LIFTED
Restrictions Placed on I'M
portation of Dock Coal
Are Removed

Bismarck, N. D., March 1.-The
federal fuel administrator at Wash.
ington Thursday informed state fuel
administrator, /. p. Baker, by wire
that there will be no restrictions Of
any kind placed on the importation
Of dock coal into North Dakota, as
had been originally planned.
The following message was re-
ceived by Captain Baker late today:
ct has been decided inadvisable to
embargo any dock coal at this time
to North and South Dakota. No re-
strietions are now contemplated on
dock coal to the state OF North Da-
kota."
This action, is the direct result OF
a vigorous protest sent to Washing
ton by Fuel Administrator Baker
against the discrimination toward
North Dakota in the matter of its
unconsumed proportion of dock coal
which Is now awaiting shipment at
the head of the lakes.
The proposed order, 1t was be-
lieved I'm Washington, would make
coal available for other sections In
the country, as 1t was thought that
North Dakota and South Dakota
could get along with native Ignite
coal and fuel imported from Mon
tana

A MODERN FABLE.

Once there was bankrupt farmer
who saved from his effects one hen
that laid eggs Of gold every day.
He would take the hen, place her
On a table, and say Big Biz" or
Kept Press" and she would lay a
round, golden egg worth SIS.
But he became impatient even
though she Matched out a brood Of
chickens which also laid SIG eggs.
He thought the hen must be made Of
gold. so he demanded that she lay
eggs worth 500 apiece. The hen,
meanwhile. was getting no more feed
than beFore and reflected none Of the
prosperity she had brought her own
a.. She protested and wanted to
know why she should lay 800 eggs.
tits none of your damned bust
ness" said the bankrupt farmer. IAN
you've got to do is to lay eggs.
The hen laid five or six Of the
500 eggs, and then went on strike.
That's not the way the old fable
ended, but this is a modern fable,
ami a modern hen and the hen told
the bankrupt farmer that If IL wasn't
any Of her damned business" what
became Of the eggs, she wouldn't lay
any more, no matter how often he
said the magic words Big Biz" and
Kept Press
We haven't heard the end Of the
fable yet. We think the once bank
rapt farmer went to Russia and be-
came a Bolshevik, and bought a big
Ralace on the Nevslxi Prospekt with
his golden eggs, and had another
kept presslxy Of his own that told
TIE moujiks Of the terrible crimes
the bourgeoisie committed during
the revolution, and how Fritz Won
peterovitch, the new German head
Of the Russian vodka trust, who had
Ia get out Of Berlin when the Yam
KEGS came, was paying them only 81
q bushel for grain and collecting five
kopeks a glass for vodka. And every
night he talked to a big crowd in
front OF the winter palace and lived
happy ever afterward.
And we don't know what became
Of the hen, but we think she lived
happy ever afterward too, and laid
many q good useful egg, only they
weren't gold any more, and she kept
them for herself, and set up a flour
fishing egg business with them.

Publications remain to be effected
Gne-sixth OF the road to nationa
prohibition has already been cover
ed. 1t Is not without interest to re-
mark that in the first three legisla'
lures to ratify the amendment the
aggregate vote in favor Of Fatifica'
ton was 333, while the total vote OPP
posed was but 45-a preponderancE
Of prohibition sentiment of z TO /
This is a significant hint of the tone
of the public mind on the question OF
the elimination of alcoholic drink.
While the necessarily slow process
Of legislative ratification Of the con-
stitutional amendment is in progress
there is another and more immediate
pressing aspect of this great question
that demands attention. The food
problem that confronts this country
is a critical one. We must feed our
allies. That is one of our most vital
functions in the great war. Mean
While we must not starVe ourselves.
That way lies national inefficiency.
As a people we have responded
cheerfully and Fundamentally to the
proposals Of our Food COMPTROLLER
as to personal sacrifice in the use of
foodstuffs. Thrice a week we go
without wheat products: twice a
week We go without meat; once a
week we go without pork. We have
learned to mix with our precious
white -four other cereal products for
the making Of war bread. We are
glad to do our share in the saving
OF the wheat flour to go across the
seas for our soldiers and our allies.
But there is still a gap in our pro-
gram OF saving. Nationally speak
ing, we are still using great quaint
ties of cereals in the brewing OF beer.
Fifty million bushels OF barley went
last year into the breweries to be
destroyed as food for the making of
drink, and several million bushels of
corn and rice. What we drink we
cannot have to eat.
1t is by no means necessary to
argue that beer drinking is an I'M
healthful or reprehensibIe practice
in order to contend that in a time
like this the dTinker Of beer should
make at least an equivalent sacrifice
OF his refreshing glass on behalf of
the general food supply. He should
make it all the more cheerfully since
he is only a fraction, greater or
smaller, Of the community. Not all
Of us drink beer; but every one of
us eats bread.
