FLU" SITUATION
CAUSING CONCERN
MANY NEW CASES IN MOSCOW
BUT ALL ARE MILD AND
LITTLE ALARM is FELT

There are many new cases OF 'flu''
in Moscow and there is much con-
Germ but little cause for alarm, as
the cases are all very mild. Don't t
lose your heads. Keep cool. The
epidemic is in such mild form that
there is very little danger if people
just keep their heads cool and their
feet warm" is the warning issued
by DR.. F. M. Leitch, city health of
ficer.
1Don't become alarmed. Don't ask
the Red Cross for trained nurses.
There are none to be had. Go home
and go to work. Take care of your
own folks. Let every church, lodge
and other organization look after its
own members. There are enough well
people to take care of all the sick" /"
This is the excellent advice given by
DR.. H. J. Smith, county chairman of
the Red Cross.
There is no denying the fact that
there are probably as many cases of
the flu in Moscow today as there was
at any time last year, but the cases
are all of such mild character that
little uneasiness need be felt. Not a
single serious case is reported. But
people are panicky and become
frightened easily. They fear the
worst and call for help. Conditions
are no worse in Moscow than in many
other places. In fact the disease is
sweeping over the country like
wave. But there have been few
deaths anywhere and there is little
cause for alarm. eff people will just
keep their heads and take care of
themselves, go to bed when they be-
gin to feel badly and neighbors will
be neighborly and churches and
lodges and other organizations will
look after their own members, there
will be no serious consequences. Gen
esee has the disease probably as badly
as any point in the Inland Empire,
but they are saying nothing about it.
The neighbors are taking care of the
sick and no call for nurses has been
sent out. Genesee is depending on it's
own resources and that is what every
town must do, said Dr. H. J.
Smith.
At Pullman they have an organi-
zatfon called "The Neighborly Neigh
bors" and it is all that it's name i'm
plies No one is allowed to suffer or
lack for care. Every member is a
committee to look after the neigh
bors and see that they lack nothing
in time Of sickness or misfortune.
Moscow people must work along the
same line.
City School Superintendent J. H.
Rich has the diesase and six other
teachers are at home with the dis
ease today. Dr. F. n. Leitch, city
health officer, said: II do not want
to close the schools OF other places.
In the east they have found that this
is not the proper method. But if the
schools are closed shall issue an
order to close everything, including
pool halls, picture shows, dances,
churches and every place of public
gatherings for period of two weeks.
The disease is so mild that it ought
to run it's course in that time"

GETS DUROC HOGS
SELLS HIS JERSEYS
LATAH COUNTY FARMER BUYS
HIGH CLASS PRIZE WINNING
DUROC PORK ERS

George j. Doughtery, well known
farmer and stockman Of near Estes
station, has just added six prize win
ming Duroc Jersey hogs to his al
ready fine herd of these valuable ami
mails, and is naturally proud of his
purchases, which include some really
fine individuals with ancestors among
the nobility of this class of hogs. He
got the hogs from Preston & Sons of
Spokane, whose herd took many first
and championship prizes in the show
circuit last fall.
The one animal he prizes more than
the others is the junior champion sow
of the northwest circuit, bred by
Preston & Sons and shown by the
firm and sold to Mr.. Doughtery after
the show season was over. She is a
choice animal and will bring a litter
of pigs from the great herd boar,
Millionaire, of the Preston herd
Mr.. Doughtery also got the junior
champion boar, descendant of "O1d
Defender" the only boar that took
grand champion prize two years in
succession at the Chicago Internation-
al show
Sold His Jersey Cows.
Mr.. Doughtery sold eight head of
Jersey cows and heifers last week to
c. E. Noble, of Spokane. Mr.. Noble
came down to look at some of Mr..
Doughtery's fine Jerseys and kept
making offers on them until he
bought the eight head which were
shipped to Spokane and Mr.. Dough-
terry is trying the Shorthorn mixers
but says the milk is not like he got
from his JERSEY cows
Suggests Stock Sale.
Mr.. Doughtery is an enthusiastic
livestock man and booster for bet
ter livestock for Latah county. He
says there is to be meeting of pure
bred livestock breeders here in Nav
and he suggests that big auction
sale of purebred hogs and other pure
bred cattle be held at that time and
that the sale be made an annual
event for Moscow. Mr.. Doughterv
said: eve have just as good stock
here in the northwest as anywhere
in the United States. There is no need
to send to the east for purebred
cattle and hogs. We have right here
in the northwest and ought to buy
at home and encourage the breeders
here. One can buy good hogs here
for about twice what the express
would cost from the east and I think
we ought to unite and encourage the
breeding of better stock and the buy
ing of sires and dams from the breed
ers of this section"

see A. H. Johnson, and found that he,
too, is confined to his home with the
flu and that Mr.. Van Tilborg is the
only member able to be out. He rather
advocated the closing of the schools.
It is understood that the University
of Idaho will not be closed unless con-
ditions should get very much worse
