mighty Woodrow, leaving the
impression in plain words that
"1the world war" was a DEM
ocratic War, fought by Demo-
Gratis and won by Democrats and
that none of the glory could be
claimed by Republicans. That
the heatless, wheatless and
meatless days endured by the
Republican fathers and mothers
were all piffle and that the Re-
publican mothers who gave their
sons to the God of War were
not patriotic, that only those
sons who nursed at Democrat

all the money given toward the
purchase of Liberty bonds do
mated to the Y. M. C. A. and

to naught. Not only has this

TO PREVENT GARLIC FLAVOR
Few Simple Precautions In Herd
Management Win Keep Out Dis
agreeable Odor in MIX

Dairymen and creamery men in
many states are troubled every spring
by garlic or onion flavor in the milk.
This is due to the cows feeding ON
garlic or wild onion, one of the first
plants to start in the pasture in the
spring. The trouble from garlic is not
likely to last very long, as this weed
comes plentiful enough for the cattle
to feed on it in preference to the
onion.
Garlic flavor in miIk can be removed
by heating the milk to 145 degrees f.
and forcing air through it at this tenn
perature for so to 60 minutes. accord
ing to Farmers Bulletin 608 of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. AS this method requires a GER
tain amount of equipment, it is much
more satisfactory for the average
dairyman to keep the odor out of milk
by a few simple precautions in herd
management
There are two ways of protecting
the milk from garlic flavor. First, pre-
vent the cows from obtaining garlic;
and second, manage the herd on garlic
pasture, so that there will be the least
possible chance of getting the flavor
in the milk.
Often the garlic is found only in one
patch in the pasture, and this can be
temporarily fenced off and pastured
with other animals not producing
milk.
Where garlic is scattered all over
the field 1t will be impossible to keep
the cows away from it, but by remov-
ing them to some other field three or
four hours before each milking the
flavor will be reduced to minimum.
The odor In milk Is strongest from
cows which have just eaten garlic,
and the odor is reduced as the time
between the eating of garlic and milk
ing is increased.
In case no garlic-free pasture is
available, it would be advisable to
drive the cattle to the barnyard three
or four hours before milking and feed
them on hay and silage. AS the sea-

THE DANGER IN
SHAVING BRUSHES
TO THE CITIZENS OF w. VA i:

TO THE CITIZENS OF w. VA:
The State Department of
Health has received the follow
ing letter from the Surgeon
General of the United States
Public Health Service.
'"The Bureau has made every
effort possible under existing
laws and regulations to prevent
the occurrence of anthrax due to
infected shaving brushes. In
spite of its efforts anthrax cases
occur and will continue to occur
unless the public cease to buy
and use horse-hair brushes for
shaving.
1t is the concensus of expert
opinion that shaving brush an
thrax is only contracted when
the shaving brush is made of
horse-hair and Congress at the
next Session will be asked to
prohibit the use of horse-hair in
shaving brushes. In regard to
the horse-hair shaving brushes
which are now in trade chan
nels, and some of which are pre-
sumably infected, it is doubtful
if any effective measure can be
taken by health officials except
direct appeal to the public not
to buy or use horse-hair brushes.
You are strongly urged to Is
sue in your state such an appeal,
giving it the widest publicity, as
the only remedy to obviate the
potential danger from these
brushes pending additional leg
islation."
The State Department of
Health heartily endorses the
above warning and urges the
public to refrain from the use of
these brushes.

WILLIAMS MAKES APPEAL
FOR AMENDMENT

The Good Roads Amendment
should have the unanimous vote
of every true West Virginian
for the following reasons -
LIST. Because it is a step in
the form of an enabling act to
the Legislature towards a mod
ern road system.
End. The present system
hampered by constitutional linn
itations can be improved by leg
islative enactment of the amend
ment is passed.
3rd. The passage of the
amendment does not create a
bond issue but enables the Leg
islature to establish a Highway
System.
4th. The Legislature, elected
by the people, can be trusted to
carry out their wishes in the
matter of issuance of bonds or
in making the much needed
highways within the State.
5th. Investigations made in
the year 1914 revealed that the
inadequate road system of w.
Va. costs the State annually over
$50,000,000.00 in bad road taxes.
9th. The question before the
people of w. Va. today, is not
whether we can afford good
roads, but how long will be toll
Grated the present road condi-
lions which can be corrected by
the adoption of the proper sys-
tenn.
7th. Bonds issued by the
Legislature, on the Illinois Plan,
can be at all times kept within
the limit of the available funds
from automobile tax and thru
that plan a system of roads can
be constructed without any di-
rect State levy.
9Th. After spending more
than 10 years of life studying
the road problem Of this State,
in conjunction with the econ
omic conditions, and having
spent over S years in an official
capacity, | am frank to say that
the passage of the present a.
mendment is of great impor-
lance to the State and every
voter should consider it a priv
ilege to have the opportunity of
voting for a measure that will
help every man, woman and
child within the State.
For these reasons | am for the
amendment and only regret that
| have not had time to visit per-
sonally every section of the
State and present views in its
behalf, but, knowing the people
Of West. Virginia to be real pro
gressive loyal patriotic citizens
/ feel safe in saying the amend
ment will pass by large ma
jority.

NATURAL LAWS

Science is an exacting task
master. 1t both promotes and
disturbs. Awakening from the
nightmare of merciless slaugh-
ter incident to the world war,
we are prone to wonder care
all these things worth while 's
Man is the soul of the world and
ium of all things, and the only
the moral and intelligent sensor-
consciously intelligent inhabi-
tant of the earth. His domin-
ion depends upon his ability to
place the forces of nature one
against the other. u"
The love of life is universal.
The tiniest animal and the min
utest vegetable manifest it no
less than the highest vertebrate,
including. the human race. The
tendency to cling to life seems
as universally applicable to liv-
ing things as the law of graV-
itation is to matter generally.
AS gravitation insures order In
the material world, so the sex
ual impulse insures the contirl-
uity of life in the animal world.
Gravity is a scientific mani
festation of a natural law and
is changeless in it's effects. The
sex impulse is likewise a mar
Hesitation of a natural law, but
man, the highest type of all Gre
ated things, has often perverted
it. The results of this perver-
sion may be seen on all sides;
homes for friendless girls, ven
ereal disease clinics, race sui
eide, birth control, and chief of
all, the "Red Light" districts are
products of perverted natural
laws. It is probable that no one
is born so perfect that no mis-
takes are ever made by them,
but by control of natural i'm
pulses and wholesome associ-
atoms we will make the world
better place in which to live.

their impartial opinion that the public
is more than ever opposed to the gov

petition with Its citizens, observers
here see little chance that either po-
litical party will find 1t a profitable
campaign issue.
In the opinion of party leaders this
sort of a canvass among newspaper
editors is the best possible index of
public opinion. They recall similar
QUESTIONABLE sent out year ago in
connection with the proposition that
the government take over the rail-
roads permanently. Replies at that
time from approximately the same
number OF editors showed SO per cent
against the principle Of government
operation. They recall also that with
in ten days from publication of the
result of the former QUESTIONABLE the
sentiment for return of the railroads
to their owners had definitely crys-
tallized.
Comparison of present results in de-
tail with those of year ago con-
vinces the political student not only
that these editors have been accurate
In their judgment, but that party con-
siderations played no part in form
ing 1t. From Democratic and sup
posedly radical Texas, for example,
the present QUESTIONABLE brought re-

three Of which are Republican. Yet
the percentage against government
