LOUISIANA STATE BOARD
OF HEALTH.

On January ~, 1919, a bill was
introduced into the House of Rep
resentatives which if passed will
mean much of the promotion OF
health of the rural population and
of the villages and towns of the
United States. If appropriated
the funds will be opportloned 10
the parishes counties IN other
states on a dollar for dollar
basis. The plan of health work
on which the common fund will he
expended will he approved by the
l.. :. Public Health Service ana
State Board of Health.
Under this plan the activities
Of health work will be enlarged
in scopc and adapted TO the bet
termcnt of sanitary and health
conditions in the various parishes
where the money is expended.
There are doubtless a plumber OF
parishes in Louisiana willing to
appropriate for more extended
health work. but they are not
able to spend an amount sufficient
to put into effect such measures
as are important for the protec-
ton and promotion of health.
The normal death rate in the
United States is fourteen for each
thousand. 1T can be lowered at
least one half. Typhoid, tuberc-
ulosis, malaria, and hookworm
can be practically eliminated from
Louisiana. This and more is the
great purpose back of the Lever
bill (II. r. l41S5.) Viii you not

FLU" MANY CENTURIES
OLD.

Most of us think that the lhilu-
enza is a compai atively modern
disease, but this is not so. we
have records of it as far back as
1173 and from 1910 on IT Is abSo-
lutelv identified as the same m
huenza epidemic that has just
swept over the world. In the SIN
teenth century there were three
such epidemics, III the seventeenth
and eighteenth. ~, and in the
nineteenth. six. In 1910 hlStor-
ians tell us that hardly a soul III
Europe evaded it.
The word influenza shows that
the disease has been known a
long time. for it is from the ltal-
ian and means influence. 1t was
supposed to be caused by some
malign influence of the planets O"
of supernatural beings.
1t was not until recently that
the germ has been discovered.
Great strides in its treatment and
cure were made in the recent
siege.

Getting Rid of Colds.

The easiest and quickest way to get
rid of cold is to take Chambcrlain's
Cough Remedy. This preparation has
been in use for many years and its value
fully proven. No matter what remedy
YOU use. however. care must be taken not
to contract second cold before you have
recovered from the first one. and there rs
serious danger of this. A man of middle
age or older should go to bed and stay
in bed until fully recovered. 1t is better
70 stav in bed three DAYS at the sta7t
than three weeks later on.

Chicago. July 11.-Corn weakened FRI
day for old crop deliveries, but strength
ened for the new crop month, December
There was much sentiment that July
and September were up too the basic
price of wheat. On the other hand, notice
that trade relations with Germany could
at once be resumed led to some specula-
tive buying OF December corn. Tie close
was unsettled. varying from 2hc net de-
cline to an advance of &c. with September
$1.e2x to $1.s3b and December $1.59%
to $3.50. Oats gained 1c to 2h Q2Ac, the
finish in provisions ranged from soc set
back to 12c advance.
Most of the corn trade was in the De-
cember option, and there was evidence
that the bulls especially had transferred
their activities to that month. The days
top figures for December were reached
just at the close, when attention was TO-
cussed CHIEFLY on the subject of renewed
business with Germany
Oats climbed to the highest prices yet
this season. Seaboard buying and I'M

Absence of demand weakened provisions,
