TIME OR PLACES

Railroad travelling is of two kinds: first, that in which you
watch the clock to see how much longer it will be until you
reach your destination; second, where your interest centers
on the things passing by your kaleidoscope window.
The first is tresome, uninteresting. The second recrea-
ton and enjoyment.
Life's pullman is also peopled by the same two classes of
individuals.
Those who have their eyes and their minds set on the goal
they hope to reach some day, but fail to appreciate the oppor-
tunities that fly by the window of their soul every day.
Then there are the lovable, successful folks who take an
interest in life as it comes. They do the things that are brought
to their notice and before they realize it they have come to the
top of the ladder. One is wishing. The other working.

KEEP AN EYE ON RUSSIAN BEAR

We note that the Russian B%olshevists, Russian anti-Bolshevists
and Russians of all the other score or two of parties, are unit
ed one one thing-they don't want sef-determinaton of peo-
pies in what was the old empire of Russia.
They simply will not have independence in Ukrania, in
Siberia, in Lithuania, in Letvia and other lands conquered in
the good old Russian bear days. And so. when the Bolshevists
led freeman of Russia, Of all parties, shrek their applause.
A little revolution and a whole lot of terror and cold-blooded
murder isn't enough to change the instincts of that cunning
old bear.
One of these days, if it hasn't already started, will see
reaction in Russia. Already they have a strong army. The
movjiks and nuts of the old Russian army who couldn't stand
plain democracy, and thought they could do as they pleased
under Bolshevism, now find themselves conscripted and dis
ciplined with an iron hand.
This new army is putting down civil war and threatening
the frontiers. Next, if historical p%recedents count for any,
thing, a Napoleon will arise in Russia, and the Russian army
will need the strong men of Ukraine, Siberia, Letvia and other
provinces, to go out and help conquer the world.
The Russian bear! For centuries he fought with moth
ing else in mind but to take other peoples land from them.
For centuries he lused for the fat loot of other nations homes.
1t will be well for the world to keep an eye on "the bear
that walks like a man."

be calling the so-caled Non-Partisan League a farmers move

WAYS OF SERVING TOMATOES

Are tomatoes healthful? They
are indeed. They come at a time
OF the year in which salads are few
and they help supply the acids
needed by the body.
How can we get variety in serv-
ing tomatoes" Serve them sliced with
salt and pepper, mayonnaise, French
or cream dressing. Let them be
peeled, split cross-wise and sprinkled
with finely chopped onion that is
wet in French dressing (oil, vinegar,
salt and pepper.) Children like them
as gelatin salads with green peas.
Cook them and serve as clear or
cream soup, stewed plain or with
bread crumbs or flour, on toast or
over meat loaf, scalloped, stuffed
and baked. All not thus eaten should
be canned for winter use or made in
to Chilli sauce or catsup.
II want recipe for making cat
sup just like that we buy in color
and texture" The catsup we buy is
bright because it is make quickly.
The large manufacturer of catsup
cooks the tomatoes with live steam
instead of fire SO they do not burn,
the steam laden air on top is drawn
off and dry air forced in so evapo-

HUMAN ANTHRAX
'by DR.. A. r. Lewis, State Health


(By DR.. A. II. Lewis, State Health
COMMISSIONER
Five cases Of human anthrax have
been reported to me direct and fully
as many have been discovered by
County Health officers. This makes
a total Of at least ten cases of this
disease that have occurred in Okla
homa.
While this number is not sufficient
magnitude to cause great alarm-yet
the condition is assuming such pro-
portion that warning to the gen.
eral public is deemed advisable.
Anthrax is highly contagious and is
communicated from dead animals to
humans. Caring for an animal that
is sick with anthrax is dangerous for
it is more than likely that the person
thus exposed will take the disease.
The greatest source Of contagion,
however, comes from handling or skin
ming cattle that have died with an
thrax.
If you don't know the cause of
death, or even suspect that it might
have been due this disease don't
skin the animal. Don't risk having
anthrax for a COW hide.
Persons who have contracted the
/ disease or who have reason to think
that they may have it, should get
in touch Immediately with thsil
county health officer and should also
report the case to the State Health
Commissioner.
Anti-anthrax vaccine will be oh.
tained and sent free to all persons
who are unable to pay for it, by the
State Health Department. And TN
department will also inform physi
clans or other persons as to whers
the vaccine may be purchased.

KEEP MOSQUITOES AWAY
AND PREVENT MALARIA

Recently called on a family
living near a small body Of water
called, by courtesy a lake. The
mother was i'll with fever, the cause
OF which had not been determined.
II know what it is", she insisted,
Its the lake. watched the niasma
rolling up from that lake a few eve
nings ago and knew some one would
be getting malaria"
But she jumped at her conclusions
too soon. She did not have malaria.
She had tonsillitis and she was over
it in couple Of days.
Nevertheless it is difficult for me to
convince that family, the members Of
which have seen the evening mists
lowering over the little lake, that they
are in no special danger from malaria
They have believed for generations
that malaria is contracted from GER
tain vapors that rise from pools and
low marshy places, and they are hard
to convince to the contrary.
As matter of fact there is only
one agent for the transmission of
malaria and that is the mosquito.
Furthermore, the only mosquitoes that
carry malaria belong to the variety
known as the Anopheles. The logical
conclusion is that any place from
which mosquitoes can be kept, will be
free from malaria, and any person
protected against the mosquito is pro-
tected against malaria.
This great discovery made in the
closing days of the Nineteenth century,
by a famous doctor named Walter
Reed. The celebrated Walter Reed
general hospital at Washington, d. G.
is named in his honor. He was con.
ducting EXPERIMENTS to find the cause
Of yellow fever, and discovered that
the mosquito was responsible not only
for yellow fever but also for malaria
Doctor Reed lost his life in making
the experiment, but as a result Of
his investigations the famous General
Gorges, who has just died in Lincoln
was able to control yellow fever and
malaria on the Istmus of Panama ard
make possible the building Of the
great Panama canal.
So it is only fair to say that the
Panama canal was built because Doc.
tor Walter Reed discovered that the
Anopheles mosquito is responsible fol
yellow fever and malaria.
To keep mosquitoes from breeding
around your home, see that there arr
no collections of rain water. Drair
the puddles and pools, cover up thu
water butts, don't even permit water
to stand in empty cans.
No high weeds should BE- left stand
ing.
Any marsh or pool that cannot b.
drained should be oiled, the entire sur
face of the water being covered will
thin film of oil. Malaria is unnec
essary. Any community may rid it
self of the disease by concerted, sys
tematic effort.-Dr. Chas H. Lerrigo
in Oklahoma Farmer.

MARINE RECRUITING

Recruiting for the Marine Corps
upidly increasing and is expected
I reach the highest peacs-time point
n midsummer recruiting this month.
.fore the war 500 men a month was

h that the August figures will
Lsily double that number.
The Marine Corps is now recruit
to about 60 per cent Of its author
I'd strength of 27,400, and at the
resent rate of progress will reach
maximum number within a few
cnths. While the passing Of the

)ating effect on enlistments, recruit

onal advantages now offered to Ma
