George Washington, famous war
horse, survivor Of two campaigns,
mount Of the late Colonel Paul Wat
erman and proud bearer of General
Pershing in the first American re-
view in Paris, was shot by an agent
OF the American Humane Society at
West Hartford in August. Though
only about Is years old, the horse,
which hdd been cared for in Troop
B Armory since he returned from
France, had been suffering consider
ably from his war experiences and
had grown pitiably thin. It was de-
cided that the best course was to end
it all.
The horse had an unusual war rec
ord. He went to the Mexican border
in the summer of 1915 and to France
in 1917 with DR.. Waterman. He was
one OF the few horses to be returned
from France by the government.
Since then he had been ridden some,
but for the most part he had led a
quiet existence. When Troop B held
its first horse show, in November,
1922, the show was built around
George Washington, who, at each
performance, was brought in triumph
antly to the strains of martial mu-

THE TAXPAYERS DOLLAR

Under the caption, Five Hundred
liam p. Helm, Jr., contributes an ar
ticle to The Budget, in which he
propounds the question: How does
the federal government spend its
billions?"
Few persons, he says, know even
a small part of the story. In the
public mind government consists
largely of maintaining an army and
navy, caring for disabled veterans
and paying pensions, meeting the in
terest on the public debt and provid-
ing for the gradual retirement of the
principal developing foreign and do
nestle commerce, conducting our re-
lations with foreign nations, running
the country's postoffices and mail
service enforcing the federal laws,
operating the merchant marine and
few other outstanding activities
constantly brought to public attea-
ton through the columns of the daily
press.
But, Mr.. Helm points out that is
not all of government. Indeed, til 1T
is but the foundation. Upon that
foundation there has been reared a
towering superstructure which even
yet is growing, despite the admirable
work of the bureau of the budget to
hold our national expenditures to the
minimum.
Government of the United. States
reaches into every field of private
efforts. 1t is the most colossal and
extensive machine that human In
genuity has ever devised
Mr.. Helm started in January, 1922,
to compile a list of the activities of
the federal government where those
activities touched business interests
alone. He disregarded the activities
of the government relating to art,
science, social service, and other sub
jects not intimately interesting 70
the average business man of the
United States.
The task was completed in nine
months. The mere listing of the
governments activities of interest to
business men alone ran to a length
of more than 100000 words. More
than $4,000 separate and distinct
functions Of government were thus
uncovered.

BACK TO SOUTH SEAS
FOR THE cocoANuT COW


We are still as a nation importers
Of dairy products.
Millions of pounds of butter have
entered our country during the past
few months in spite Of the fact that
we have greatly increased our pro-
duction of milk, cheese and butter
We must keep in mind that our
population is increasing rapidly, and
better still we are learning the value
of dairy products as food.
Children are taught to drink milk
instead of coffee or tea. Many bust.
ness men are content with bowl Of
half-and-half and hard rolls for their
noon luncheon. y
The splendid work fof our dairy
councils, physicians and leaders in
human nutrition is bringing results.
Our legislators have gotten on the
band wagon and the cocoanut cow is
being driven back to her pastures in
the South Sea Islands, but even
slight increase in per capita con-
sumption requires hundreds of thol-
sand of cows and millions of pounds
OF produce, so the demand will con-
tinue.-Al Hacker.

Country Women Are
Natural Leaders
Grange and Farm Bureaus Grant
Equality With Men

If you are looking for women lead
ers, look to the rural and outlying
districts or towns of 1000 or under
in population. You will find them
there on the farm or near by, at least
in Ohio, says an Ohio woman.
Mrs. w. II. Gibson of Springfield
Ohio, who has been visiting in New
York, speaks from long experience
on the state rural community COM
mittee of the Y. w. G. A. Work is
organized in counties, and since NO
building headquarters are available,
the development of the work is largo
ly dependent upon the executive
ability of the local women committee
members.
farm bureau experience is the source
of their organized strength" she ex-
planned In state and county farm
bureaus women are on an absolute
equality with men, holding office
with them. Thus they have learned
TO work side by side, carrying re-
3gonsibilty. The w. G. r. U. may
Aave had something to do with de-
veloping them"
Another interesting comment on
farm women, or those living in rural
districts, was made by Mrs. Gibson.
Girls leave home soon after they
finish school," she continued. Girls
over high school age are scarcely to
be found at least in any number
They go away to college or to nor
NAL schools. While the majority take
UP teaching, they usually accept pc
sitions in other localities than their
own. Yet they must be overlooking
business opportunities at their own
door.
"Traveling in Ohio among very
small towns, it is not unusual to find
women occupying important posi-
tons. The first woman to be elected
president of a first national bank
lives in a small Ohio town. She has
been in the local bank since he1
early teens. In Morrow County the
county treasurer is woman. She
has as neighbors several other WON
Ell holding public office. In a coun
ty seat the court stenographer for &c
years has been woman.
in another small town the editor
of the paper is a woman who sue
ceeded her father. The general man
ager OF three clothing factories 10
Gated in three different towns is Il
woman Almost without exception
these are women with years of local
business experience behind them
working their way up"

IMPORTANCE OF REST IN CARE
OF CONSERVATIVES


From the earliest times of our his

ton. The old, wise Greek physician,

vised for those who live in crowd.
ed city, lose flesh and are pale, to go
out in the country, rest and drink
milk"
Later on all kinds of drugs were
used, to no avail, and the frauds and
of quacks have lured the poor and
suffering, have been a source of re.
greet and shock to all right-thinking
professional medical men as well as
OF laymen.
Keep Out of Doors
Not so many years ago medical
men in their efforts to check this
dread disease advised out-of-door life
good nourishment and lots of exer
else, like walking, running, horseback
riding and the like. This advice was
rational and correct except for the
exercise part, and that was the rea
son for the failure to cure with sucl
a method.
Only In recent years has the great
est step toward real success in the
treatment and care of consumption
been made. Just as tuberculous
bone or gland lesion was found tt

der the influence of the sun rays
and by fixation of the part affected
so it was discovered that rest, OIL
practically an immobilization of the
whole body, was responsible for 1
great improvement in the condition
of those afflicted with tuberculosis o
the lungs, and number of cures
were reported.
In addition to the absolute res.
good nourishment, fresh air ant
other measures were, of course, par
of the treatment.
1t was found that in a relatively
short time the fever would disap
pear, the patient would put or

and improve in character, and the
case would slowly go toward arrest
of the activity Of the disease, which
is our first aim and desire in the
course of the treatment.
Patient Should Rest
For those unfortunate ones who
can't afford or who have no oppor
tunity to seek sanatarium treatment,
able form OF treatment, the simple
measure of rest will prove very bene-
icial. The patient should be put IN
d tent, sleeping-porch or a WelI-light-
nourisning food, be directed to eX-
pectorate in a paper bag to be
burned later on, and the patient
kept in bed in absolute test free
from any kind OF annoyance OF
worry.
BY this simple method the case
can in many instances be carried
toward recovery and the source Of
danger TO other members of the
household, particularly children, n
form of Infection and transmission OF
he disease, be greatly diminished
and often entirely eliminated
Later on, il the circumstances per
nit, the patient can perhaps do some
light work and earn some means to
complete hi scure in a proper insti-
tuition and under medical observa-
ton be allowed and more eXe.-
else until full recovery, and thus our
great aim, to rebuild man and
again make him useful member OF
society, has been accomplished
