INVESTMENT NOTES.
Foreign Bonds.

II requires many years OF patient edu-
cational work TO induce the public to
change its habits That is why foreign
government bonds and foreign municipal
bonds can be purchased to-day at prices
yielding from to more than s per cent,
while most of the good domestic cor
poration bonds are on a or u per cent.
basis. The habit of buying railroad
bonds has been grounded into the Ameri-
can investor for generations. 1t is only
In recent years that he has been asked
TO put his money into foreign instftu-
tions which are too far away for him
to have any clear conception or their
reliability. The distrust Of entangling
foreign financial alliances is just as
strong in the American investor as the
distrust of foreign political alliances.
With the whole world virtually upside
down as a result OF the war and rumors
of bankrupt nations flying thick and
fast it requires faith TO buy foreign gov
ernment bonds. and the more hardy in
vestor who has faith Is reaping the re-
ward of a much higher return on ms
money Most of the foreign government
bonds listed on the New York STOCK Elk
change represent the obligations or ma
tions which are considered good moral
risks" The moral attitude of people
toward it's governments debts is the one
great factor to be considered. If ma
ton is ready to be taxed to the limit 10
retain it's credit it is considered good
moral risk" and American bankers are
satisfied to finance it. English bankers
have been doing the same thing WIN
safety for centuries. The comparatively
high yields on foreign bonds are SHOWN
in the following table:

The second group formed to dispose Of
the unsold balance of Argentine two
year sevens has been disbanded and the
individual members Of the group have
drawn down to hold for higher prices
the $11,750,00O of the original issue of
$50,000,0 900 which was undistributed
Some members of the group wanted to
sell the notes right out at the market
quotations, while others preferred to
hold their portion for further rise in
bond market quotations. AS a result of
the disagreement as to policy, it was
voted to. disband the syndicate. Any
pressure on the market from this source
is likely to be light.

a year. or 10000 miles to get their
public school education. Their par
ents had to keep an automobile or
a team for that purpose. But they
did it. Everybody who sends their
children four or five miles to school
must keep a team or a car for that
purpose. Is there anything cheap
about that?
Here Is what we are all doing:
Supporting thousands of poor little
dried-up schools and thousands OF
poor teachers that are high priced
at any price TO keep all our little
schools going. Then every man who
can possibly afford II deserts his
home school for the town school, be-
cause he wants his children to have
the advantages Of a graded school Of
nine months. On the other hand the
town school does not control enough
property to provided the kind of a
school the whole county needs. But
if we would all go together for a
first class high school for all the
county, put our high school funds in
to one good school for all the boys
and girls, give them all the same
chance, put the cost Of our own pri-
vate cars and teams together, get a
first-class truck, have regular
school route and bring our children
TO some central high school, we would
soon discover that it was not costing
US any more but we were getting
more FOR our money.

Pellagra is not catching disease,
but everyone should assist the Health
Officer by reporting each case. There
is no danger Of getting II by being
around a sick person. neither should
one feel disgraced for having It..
Because il is attributed TO a faulty
or restricted diet, by no means re-
stricted 20 the poor. In fact
although the rich are usually
able 70 purchase any kind of food
stuffs they want it is found that the
children Of these families are more
frequently undernourished and more
underweight than the children OF the
less prosperous families. This is be-
cause the children Of the rich are
frequently allowed 20 choose their
own diet and usually restrict Il 10
sweets. and their bodies are therefore
deprived Of the required body build
ing foods The children Of the mid
die class family are not lavished with
Injuries and their diet is usually
made up Of possibly plain but most
frequently a conservative variety OF
substantial food. Statistics prove
conclusively that the nutrition work
er while much needed for instruction
in the middle class are much more
needed among the wealthy. Nutri-
ton instruction in its several phases
is being offered by the Red Cross
and the Department Of Agriculture
demonstration agents. Consult these
persons in your county and commun-
ity.
Pellagra was first observed in
southern Europe and thought 10 be
due 10 an extensive diet of maize
which is by nature a North American
product and only grown in Europe
since the discovery Of America. The
disease was detected IN the United
States only in isolated cases until
the last ten or twelve years. The
number Of cases, however. have been
fast increasing and in some sections
have caused much alarm. That It is
more prevalent in the south is ex-
planned by the fact that in the warm
er climate there is not the demand
for. nor is there available TO every
one. the kinds of food which prevent
the disease. Especially Is this true
among the negroes who make up a
large part Of the population in that
area; many n them are not only in
such circumstances that they are I'M
able to procure diversity Of food but
prefer or are content with a diet
largely Of corn pone. salt
0rk, and molasses. Racent expert
ments encourge the conclusions that
Tho disease Is affected by an extern
i've corn diet and lack OF proteins.
Authorities advocate for both proven
lion and treatment Of the disease an
in reased diet ~ nroteins; fresh lean
meat; milk; eggs; fruits and vega
tables.

SOME EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION
ABOUT PELAGRA, ITS SYMPTOMS,
AND VARIOUS WAYS OF PREVENTION

rough and scaly or cracks and peels.
In many cases, however, the in
itial redness is not noticed and does
not occur, the first symptom being
the dirty looking scaly patch OF
skin
Pellagra has a preference in max
ing It's first appearance on the body.
In adults the backs Of the hands and
in children the backs Of the feet are
is favorite places. Another peculiar
quality OF the disease is its manner
Of appearing simultaneously on both
sides of the body parts affected. II
he back Of one hand, one elbow, one
knee, one side Of the neck, or one
cheek is affected, then usually the
other side is also affected.
Other suspicious symptoms are
nervousness, dizziness, headache,
burning feeling IN the mouth, red
dened tongue, loss Of stregth.
II Pellagra is suspected, consult
your doctor at once. Red Cross
Chapters and health agencies will
furnish further information.
Diet in Pellsgrs
There Is only one preventive and
one cure for Pellagra, according to
the best results Of medical study, and
that is proper diet. Medicines will
40 little, II anything. 10 care this
disease, and are useful only in treat
ing some Of its complications.
Foods differ In appearance and
taste. They also differ in what they
are able 70 do in the body Body
tissue must be kept repaired; energy
generated 10 make the body move ;
iron. lime and other minerals furp-
ished TO regulate the body functions,
and certain necessary substances,
called vitamines, must he used 20
produce full health and growth. II
this diet were followed, there would
be no pellagra;
Milk every day-at least pint.
One egg n day.
Meat, no oftener than once q day
though the use Of egg can lessen
use of meat.
Some green vegetables each day.
such as string beans, cabbage, let

Fruits. fresh or dried, may oc-
casionally take the place Of green
vegetables II both cannot be had.
Remember that pellagra never lasts
long where there Is diet Of milk,

caused by eating cornbread and silt
