Students of healttp and life conser-
walton are greatly interested in and
impressed by a recent report of large
industrial life insurance company
that the number OF deaths per thous-
and of its policy holders is consider
ably less than it is per thousand of the
people at large. This is in spite of the
fact that there is little selection of
their policy holders by medical exam
nations of the type employed by or
binary life insurance companies.
The company credits a considerable
proportion of it's success in reducing
the number of deaths to it's persistent
campaign of education by means of
millions of pamphlets covering almost
every phase of sickness and the means
of curing and preventing it. Another
factor is the service to policy holders
of visiting nurses who are credited
with reducing death ana even sick
ness by timely aid and personal advice
and suggestion.
The company claims a general re-
duction in its death rates of Is per
cent between 1911 and 1877 as against
federal statistics of a per cent in
crease amOqg the general population
for the same period. The improvement
among policy holders as compared
with the general population is 26 per
cent for tuberculosis; 80 per cent for
typhoid: 36 per cent for children dis
eases; 10 per cent for diseases incl
dental to childbearing.
Throughout Wisconsin, there has
been a very little intelligent interest
in willingness to contribute privately
and to appropriate public funds to
begin to do for ali people what this
company has done for its policy
holders. 1t is comparatively new
work for the public, and conclusive
proofs of its full value and not yet
available. But neither were they in
the instance of the insurance company
until a sufficient amount of time has
passed to permit judgment of ac-
cumulated results.
Nobody expects fruit tree to bear
until it reaches the bearing age
Then we expect it to increase steadily
for many years. The tree of public
health work bears some fruit at once
Only now, however, areswe beginning
to get a measure as to quantity. The
figures cited are worthy of study by
all who are interested in improving
their own and their neighbors health.
La one way or another, this includes
every body, of course, but the very
young aud the feebleminded

Ii is apparently human nature to

other people should manage their life
and their business than they know
themselves. regardless of the exper-
fence they may have had and our own

are proue to tell their married sisters
how to rear their children or manage
their husbands, and these in turn try
to tell their unmarried sisters how to
become graceful old maids. Men who
have lived In the city all their lives
like to advise the farmer about his
crops, aud man whose, wife is the

lied to give the Treasurer Of the Unit

but it's not so easy as il looks. Just
at present 1t is about the stiffest Job

EX-Congressman E. A. Hayes of
California, who is here looking after
his interests at the Ashland mine and
occupying the Hayes residence in the
Germania location, spoke at the hear
ing conducted by the international
committee on deep waterways at Ash
land Tuesday. Mr.. Hayes, through
his familiarity with the iron ore min
ing business on the Gogebic range,
was able to present to the commission
facts concerning the product of this
range which will, no doubt, have an
importantbearing in deciding whether
or not the deep waterway project shall
be carried out, by which sea going
vessels would be able to reach the port
Of Ashland and thus open direct trade
with foreign countries. He said that
the supply of iron ore on the G0gebic
range is almost Understandable and
that by being able TO ship the product
by water from Ashland it would bene-
fit the entire world by saving the de
mand on the railroads and putting it
on the waterways.
