With 100000 human lives in the Tinted States snuffed out by influ- enza since the scourge gained foot hold only a few months ago, With authorities predicting the further loss of 75O,OOO human lives in the next wear unless the epidemic is checked, the loss to America from influenza is already 10 times greater than the loss which was suffered on the bat tlefields of Europe.
 Like smallpox of the Middle Ages and typhoid in modern warfare, ln- fluenza is the scourge bred on the latest battlefields of Europe, and when the history of the war is writ ten the losses in American military cantonments from this scourge will be found to exceed American deaths in European warfare.

tible to the disease and that normally the epidemic will not end until vir- tually every susceptible person is stricken, vaccination presents the only means of stemming the tide of a scourge which otherwise will claim staggering toll of human life in this country for many months to come.
 Absolute isolation of the individual is impossible. Prevention of crowds, nasal sprays, ''flu" masks and other experimental measures have proved unsatisfactory.
 After the scourge wanes, 1t flares up again suddenly and then rages at times with even greater violence.
 The cure of the disease is uncer- tain. Prevention is better. The | Rosenow vaccine offers rsfuge not only to influenza, but protection from colds, pneumonia and other respira- tory diseases.
 Influenza attacks the old and the young of all walks of life. Exposure to the disease is universal. It is particularly fatal to the young-ages ranging from 20 to 35-but it is no respecter of ages, locality or previous condition of health.

LOGGED OFF LANDS FOR
BERRIES

After wasting oceans of ink and
hundreds of tons of paper and gov
ernment franked envelopes on how to
utilize the logged-off lands, the Ev-
ergreen blackberry. the Loganberry
strawberries and other small fruit
may turn the trick.
Hundreds of families are planning
to grow berries Of various kinds be-
tween the stumps, and to plant
evergreen blackberries at the base
of the stumps, using the stumps
themselves for supports for the
vines, thus getting crop from the
very ground occupied by the stumps
until the owner is able to clear the
land.
The idea, with variations and
other suggestions has been taken NJ
where there are logged off lands.
Chambers of Commerce and pub
licity bureaus have included this plan
to use logged off lands.
The juice, jam and preserving
plants have made wonderful mar
ket for these small fruits, especial
ly in western Oregon and Washing
ton.

TEACH THE CONSTITUTION
&C. w. Barron in Boston News
Bureau.)

&C. w. Barron in Boston News
Bureau.)
First and foremost has got to be
fought out the problem as to wheth-
er the constitution of the United
States, protecting the right of the
individual to make material progress,
to accumulate and to save, is to be
protected.
The first reform necessary is to
put behind the flag at every school
house the constitution of the United
States. There should never be a
graduation certificate or a diploma
issued to a West Point cadet, a
State university student, a high
school scholar or a grammar school
pupil who has not passed an exami-
nation and shown his knowledge OF
the meaning Of the constitution of
the United States and its representa-
tive form of government.
In the political agitation that has
gone on, it seems almost to have
been forgotten that great as is the
constitution of the United States, its
greatness consists in the freedom
it gives to individual enterprise and
for combinations of enterprise and
capital; the protection it gives to in
dividual inventors, and the stimulus
it furnishes to individual initiative.
U. s. spells not only combination
but wealth and Independence as the
reward for business enterprise which
enlarges output, improves quality
and reduces prices.
1t is thus that here the people are
better and more abundantly fed and
clothed and let it never be forgotten
that labor consumes more than 90
per cent of whet it produces.

SZABADKA, Slavonia. - (By
Mail. when a wheeling little au-
tomobile of American make, driven
by Serbian soldier, broke down ON
country road forty miles from
here. IT started an international tan
gle which rolled up until it had the
diplomats of four countries worried.
Here are some of the things that
began to happen:
Three hundred cars of French
merchandise bound for Roumania
piled upon the four switches of the
railroad yards here and congested
things until not wheel could move
A Red Cross supply train OF thlr-
ty cars, bound for Bucharest, came
up behind the French trains and
completed the tie-up of communica-
tions.
Ten Americans were marooned for
nine days ON board the Red Cross
train.
Roumanian merchants who were
relying on the prompt delivery OF
the French goods sent special train
from Bucharest to investigate the de-
lay.
S2abadka, an important town on
the frontier between Hungary and
Serbia, was cut off from all commu-
nication with the outside world.
The Serbian soldier who was the
innocent cause of all this trouble
was driving his car merrily north
ward one day when the steering gear
went wrong. He stopped, found the
cause of the difficulty and decided
that he needed a piece OF stout wire
to repair the damage. He reached
up to the long-hanging, single-wire
telegraph line and cut off generous
section. Having fixed his car he
drove blithly on. The wire gave out
presently, and he renewed il, twice,
thrice, four or five times, from the
telegraph line beside the road.
Meanwhile the trains of French
merchandise had been arriving at
Szabadka. Official sanction was nee
essary for the cars TO proceed. The
frontier officials framed the proper
sort of telegram, and it was duly
countersigned and presented to the
operator. He reported that the wire
was mot working" So the frontier
officials decided to wait until it be-
gan to work
They waited two days, while more
and more trains drew into the con
gested yards, Szabadka was cut off
from wire communication. Mails 60
only once a week, and then only il
TRAINS are running.
The telegraph officials finally de-
cided to send out a line-repairns
party. The party returned after an
other days delay with the announce
ment that so many breaks had beer
found that their supply of spare wire
had given out.
Meanwhile congestion in the yardi
increased and the appeals from thu
French conyoyers, the American con
yoyers and the Roumanian mer
chants, became more urgent. It wa
a full week, however, before th'
wires had finally been restored ant
the official risas obtained. BY tina
time the blockade had become 81
complicated that it will probably tax
a month to put Szabadka back on
normal basis.
