GROWING OLD WITH DIABETES

II you are overweight, If you consume
too much sugar or other rich foods,
then your chances Of acquiring diabetes
are more than average, although you
may have 1t, but be unaware of It's
existence for q long time. But II YOU
do get Diabetes, you have 1t for life
there is no known cure-although 1t
Is possible for diabetic to get on
comfortably and happily for years
provided he Is sensible enough and
patient enough to avail himself OF the
only two known methods of controlling
the disease--proper diet and the use of
Insulin, says the Public Health League
of Washington.
Diet is of first Importance. One
physician, who specializes In this
disease, said the other day: when a
diabetic is first put on n diet, he
cheats about as often as does a
solitaire player. have known
ministers and dear old people. who were
the souls Of honor, to cheerfully lie to
the doctor about how strictly they kept
to their diet"
No hard and fast rules may be fol-
lowed safely by a diabetic. The diet
must be studiously considered and pre-
pared for each Individual. No two
persons react just alike to the same
quantities of the same food, nor to the
combination of diabetes and diet.
There can be no ready-made formula
to fit each cnse. Only scientific
physician can determine the needs of
the individual.
While there is no absolute cure for
diabetes. many so-called cures are
being sold to the American public.
They all have the same claims-the
mysterious secret herb or formula, the
absured claims, the purchased and
worthless testimonial, the exploiter
without medical knowledge; and to the
extent that the public experiments
with these dangerous cures and neg
lects the treatment which has been
evolved by science, to that extent will
diabetes continue to take its unneces-
sary toll Of life.

June the dogs in some counties had
not been listed The Permanent Sheep
Committee Is notifying County Asscs-
sors that under the law all dogs must
be listed, and is directing attention 10
the provision that any person or Of
flcer who shall refuse TO comply with
Or enforce any provisions Of the law
shall be deemed guilty OF Il misde-
fneanor.
The Permanent Sheep Committee has
made careful survey, and finds that
the major losses to farm flocks, as we'll
rs to poultry and other livestock, In
Western Washington, Is due to the
depredations OF dogs. In protection
OF livestock, and particularly of farm
flocks, where the losses are heaviest,
the Sheep Committee insists that the
dog law must be enforced. There are
now only $1,000 sheep in the farm
flocks Of Western Washington. In
Western Oregon there are half mil
lion sheep. In view of the fact that
farm flocks are very profitable, the
Sheep Committee feels that their in
crease In Washington should be en-
couraged In every way.
Many farmers equipped to handle
flock have refrained from doing so
because Of fear OF depredations by
dogs The enforcement OF the dog law
will reduce this menace to minimum
and will permit the steady expansion
OF the farm flock movement, which
viii! add materially to the wealth and
purchasing power OF Western Wash
inpton farmers. Chairman Linklater
says that the Sheep Committee will
see to 1T that the dog law is fully en-
forced in the Counties Of Western
Washington In the coming ear.

LONDON MOST DANGEROUS FOR
PEDESTRIAN TRAVEL

Americans who consider with fear
and trembling the traffic fatality
dangers of their own country, possibly
can find consolation from European
reports, according to the Automobile
Club of Washington, which has been
advised that London has the worst
record of traffic fatalities of any of the
worlds capitals.
This assertion was made at a
Ministry of Transport conference for
the reduction of street accidents in
London.
According to a report received by
the Automobile Club, representative

FARMERS OWN oNE-FOURTH OF
NATIONS AUTOMOBILES

There are 6,5OO,OOO in the United
States and five and a half million of
them enjoy the advantages Of town
life because of the automobile.
Cne-fourth of the total number of
cars in the country are owned by
farmers. It has long been noted that
the automobile has linked the city and
the farm closer together, but the use
of the automobile goes farther than
that. 1t enables the farmer and his
family to enjoy the advantages of the
city and still remain on the farm.

STATE CHAMBERS EXPANSION
PROGRAM APPROVED BY
FARMERS

Seattle.-'Farmer Of the State Of
Washington are deeply Interested In
the program Of Washington State
Chamber of Commerce to "Tell the
World the Facts About Washington,
said soren Sorenson of Ellensburg, who
was In Seattle recently. Mr.. Sorenson
IL n prominent farmer Of the Kittitas
Valley, and former President OF the
Washington Farm Bureau Federation
He Is close student of farm con-
ditions and Is always active In pro-
noting the welfare Of Agriculture.
Washington farmers fully approve
the program Of the State Chamber Of
Commerce to bring more people to this
state to see It's scenic beauties and en-
Joy Its climate and recreational fee-
lures; to bring more people to this
State to invest In industrial opportun-
tiles; and to bring more good farmers
TO Washington to take advantage Of
available farm opportunities. ! want
to make my meaning clear on the last
statement.
There are a lot Of improved farms
In this state that for one reason or
another are available. Some are held
by mortgages, some by absentee own
ers, some should be cut up into smaller
units, etc. Good farmers, with some
new capital, to operate many of these
places, will be distinct advantage To
agriculture as a whole. As in other
businesses some farmers sometimes
want to retire, and their farms are
available. There are many farm OPP
portunieiss throughout Washington
and If good prospects can be brought
in contact with these opportunities 1t
will stabilize agriculture and strength
en- values. Washington has several
million acres of raw lands which 1t
hopes some day to see improved and
developedl That day will come much
more quickly If our present improved
acres are all in profitable use. The
conservative, constructive program Of
Washington State Chamber of Com
merce has In mind, first, profits for
our present agriculture and then stable
expansion TO meet demand. The
farmers of Washington can whole
! heartedly approve this program.

In answering statement that driving
In Paris was bad, he stated that one
pedestrian In every 10000 was killed
In London In 1923, while In Paris only
one In $4,000 was killed. The dispar-
ity increased In 1929, so that London

1t was suggested that pedestrians
