RUSSIA EXPECTS TO
GET CHEAPER BREAD


Moscow, Sept. 18-Cheper bread
and plenty of it is expected through
out Russia next winter, Judging from

splendid harvest n miany districts.
The latest figures announced by the
state statistical bureau indicate a sur

million pools of bread stuffs. "a
pood equals SO pounds.
The new harvest, the bureau says,
promises 2,S53,OOO pools, of which
475,OOO pools will be reserved for
sowing purposes for next season. Last
years crops yielded but 1,566,OOO
pools of grain. Russia's annual re-
quirements are about 100000 pools.
The government bureaus claim Rus

viewpoint.
The generation that staged the
civil war in our country left every
thing "in an awful mess" The gen.
Grafton that followed developed the
country and its wealth and restored
the damages until prosperity hung
on the trees.
1t was the same in other important
countries. Then the young genera
ton got old and smashed things to
ruins. History repeats.
Naturally, it would be foolish for
US to lie down and quit cold, letting
problems grow worse until young
sters grow up. But the hope of civil
lization is unquestionably in the boys
and girls returning to school after
vacation. The best way to solve our
problems is to make those boys and
girls as efficient, sensible and
straight thinking as lies within our
power.

AFTER WE DIE

The young king of Siam, Maha
Vajiravudh, marries his cousin, Prin-
cess Laskhi Lavan. One wife is
enough says he, abolishing the Gus
tom of maintaining a royal harem.
This is big sensation in the
Orient. For the old king, Maha's ia
Their, had 800 wives.
Human nature being about the
same all over the world, the Siamese
taxpayers probably are glad to see
the harem expire.
"This new king" you reflect,
"must be a progressive chap with
modern ideas. He is enlightened"
King Maha's adjustment of the
royal harem illustrates wildly the

was known as Summer flu" and in
other states further north other
names were applied to the malady,
but the symptoms were the same in
all cases. When a person in the
north developed fever, aching body
and sore throat the doctors said it
was grip or mild case of flu or
something like that, and applied what
remedies they could devise. In
Florida, when patient became i'll
with such symptoms, the disease was
pronounced dengue.
All over the country this summer
there have been outbreaks of the fe-
yer that went by various names and
doctors in northern cities, as we'll as
in Florida, found themselves with
many cases to attend. Nobody was
very ill, but everybody who had the
feevr was miserable for few days
and gained strength slowly after be-
ing able to get out of bed.
From all this it would appear that
the so-called dengue was not confin-
ed to Florida or the south by any
means. Perhaps the disease which
was prevalent in this city and state
during the summer was not the real
dengue, but was just the grip or
Summer flu" which was found all
over the states north of here. The
disease is now disappearing, the
of cases having been greatly
reduced, Nobody has died from it,
and when the cooler weather comes
and the mosquitoes cease to hum the

Mr.. Sol K. Simon, Albany, Ga, the

ling statement:
Il suffered with what the doctor
called administration, or indiges-
ton of the lower bowels. If | ate
anything other than that prescribed
in strict diet, suffered with severe
headaches and dizziness. Instead of
taking an expensive trip to a health
resort, my brother persuaded me to
visit him, and after each meal he
gave me a dose of 'Ferraline.' In
two days | was eating anything with
out feeling the slightest discomfort.
! ordered one dozen bottles sent to
my home. l feel one hundred per
cent better and have saved about 5000
by not taking trip to health re-
sort as recommended by my physi-
cian-thanks to my brother and
'Ferraline.'"

strict enforcement of the present
law; 325,549, or 41.f per cent, for
modification of the Volstead law;
64,453, or 204 per cent, for repeal
of the eighteenth amendment.
Of the women vote 48,485, or 44.5
per cent, voted for strict enforce
ment; 1924, or 36.7 per cent, voted
for modification; 20,44s, or 1873 per
cent, for repeal,
Of the factory poll 1,453, or "a per
cent, voted for enforcement; 1851,
or 62.1 per cent, for modification;
1856, or 29.5 per cent, for repeal.
In other words, of all those who
voted in this unique and Illuminating
poll, or straw vote, 1876 per cent vot-
ed for enforcement, 40.S per cent for
modification, and 2O6 per cent for
repeal.
While 61.4 per cent Of all these
who voted were in favor of modifica-
ton and repeal-and we may assume
that those who voted for repeal
would vote for modification if they
could not obtain repeal-3S.6 per cent
voted for enforcement of the present
act. A very clear majority in favor
of some modification Of the law.
The Literary Digest has brought
out very clearly what was said at the
time the eighteenth amendment was
forced through congress and upon
the people, that if there had been any
means by which the American people
could have expressed themselves on
the question of tn eamendment and
the subsequent act based thereon,
they would have defeated both very
decidedly.
The result of the poll would seem
to indicate that the movement to Sc
cure some modification of the Vol
stead act will gain in force and that
there eventually will be such changes
in the law as will satisfy the people,
at the same time preventing the re-
turn of the obnoxious saloon.-Miami
