DRUG EVIL R0USES
WORLD CONSCIENCE.
Recent Investigations Throw
Much Light on Obscure
Problem of Control.
BY PAUL SCOTT MownEn

PARlS, France, September IRE
cent Investigations and negotiations
have served to throw much light on
the hitherto rather obscure problem
OF the control of the drug evil.
This evil consists in the widespread
abuse of two products otherwise
highly beneficial to mankind-opium,
with it's concentrated derivatives,
morphine and heroin, and the cocoa
leaf. with it's principal derivative CO.
coane. Morphine. heroin and cocaine
are all highly important In modern
medicine. Morphine and heroin,
properly administered by physicians,
have Gained untold suYerings, espe-
cially in the later stages of fatal
diseases. Cocaine as a local anes-
thetic Is much employed in dental
surgery and in operations on eyes
and nasal passages. In short. all
three have been and are still stanch
benefactorS to man in some of his
most trying hours.
Effects Of Drugs.
But there is another side to the
picture. The abuse of these potent
drugs-that is. their habitual use to
produce dreamy slumbers. mental ex-
citation or carefree stupefaction-by
persons not medically in need of them
is the cause. in the long run, of al
most as much human misery as these
same drugs in their beneficent en-
ployment alleviate. Acting radically

In the countries of western Europe
and North America 1t Is estimated
that, scattered through all classes

to some Of the highest professional
men, there are 100000 furtive

Millions Of Victims.
In Far Eastern countries the num-
Der of habitual opium smokers is
hard to estimate. but it runs GER
tainly into millions. The shattering
effect of opium smoked is much
slower than that of morphine and
cocaine. but 1t is sufYicient to main
tain whole populations in a state
of semi-stupefaction. Some orientals
have gone so far as to attribute
largely to the opium habit the in
ability OF the Chinese. for example.

Fix Poultry House
For Cold Weather
BY N.Et Ser, ice

Madison. Wis, Dec. lG.--Well-
kept, warm houses mean security
for the poultry and better returns
for the farmer.
How to accomplish this at little
expense is explained by y. B. Hayes,
extension poultryman of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin,.
"A straw pack" he says. as Il
means of retaining warmth and
eliminating excess moisture in the
poultry house.
1T consists Of Il layer of straw a
foot thick directly underneath the
roof in shed type houses and across
the ceiling in houses with deep
roofs. With the she'd type. wire
netting is nailed directly underneath
the raftcrs and the straw tucked
between.
with the high ceiling type hous-
es. temporary covering Of Slated
boards should be laid across at a
height of seven feet above the floor,
and the straw pack scattered over
this temporary ceiling.
: "A thorough cleaning of the
house should have been given with
any good disinfectant. Then when
the walls and ceiling have dried out,
give the house a good application of
whitewash.
Poultry houses that have been
treated in this way should remain
free from pests throughout the win
ter.
"A great number of windows are
necessary to let in the sunlight Sun
shine is essential for the poultry,
especially during the winter when
they must be kept inside
