StOmachs Empty While
Wheat Piles Up

The London Herald says: "Stom-
achs remain empty while wheat
piles up in the elevators, and far
mers dread a too good harvest.
And as goods accumulate and men
decay, production must be artifi-
cially restricted. Unemployment
grows. Purchasing power declines
again. The vicious circle widens."
Everybody is beginning to see that
the profit system is doomed, be-
cause it is bringing ruin to the
workers, and thus to all.
Mr.. Greer Objects to Funeral
Mr.. Robert ]. Greer, of Atlantic
City, returned home the other day,
and objected strenuously to the
preparations that were being made
! for his funeral. While these OBJ
jections no doubt included the
item of expense involved, the prin-
cipal objection which he had to
offer was that he was not dead
and the person they had in the
coffin and which they had identi
fled as him was not he himself
but somebody else. Naturally, i
a man is going to pay his owl
funeral expenses, and live to SCI
the bill receipted, he wants t.
make sure that it is he himself
and not some stranger that is get

Is the FOur-HOur Day Coming?
Governor Trumbull, of Connecti-
cut, referring to the fact that all
the industries in the East are ov-
ercrowded, and that one workman
can produce as much as thirty-two
workmen produced seventy-five
years ago, recently made a plea
that hours of labor be cut SO that
employment might be distributed
more widely. He said: at has
been estimated that employees
working four hours per day uni
versally can produce all the neces.
sites, all the Injuries, make add
tions to surplus capital and still
enjoy all the things we have haC
in the past, and that the worl
hours required per day will be

Well, the Commissioners are on the run. First
they faxed cut in the preliminary budget and
now they say we won't have to vote a road levy
as they have decided to not have this matter put

it is only strategic retreat on the part of Com

blazed through the store, smashing
windows to smithereens and demo-

The thunder shower that started
during the day and continued during
most of the night, was one Of the
heaviest rains experienced this year.
1t was brought on by general Califor-

LARGE AMOUNT OF RABBIT
FEVER IN STATE INDICATED

Rabbit hunters warned by Mime
sofa State Medical Association to
protect themselves against unusual
epidemic of tularemia.
As many cases of tularemia or
rabbit fever have been reported in
Minnesota so far this year as occur
red in 1928 and 1929 together, bull
letin on this disease from the Mime
sofa State Medical Association an
nounces today.
Eight persons have fallen victims
to this disease up to October Of this
year according to State Board of
Health figures, the bulletin reports,
and this fact may well mean that
there is an unusual amount of the dis
ease among wild rabbits in some
localities of the state this year.
The disease effects wild rabbits,
not tame 1t is not confined exclu-
sively to rabbits among the wild an
imals. squirrels being sometimes af-
flicted. Some instances are on record
where the disease has been transfer
red to human beings with wood ticks
as injecting agents, the bulletin says.
But the majority of cases where
tularemia has been transferred to
human beings have been traced to
infected rabbits, and hunters are con-
sequently warned especially careful
this year.
"Never touch wild rabbit with
bare hands" the bulletin directs.
"Disease germs may cling to the
bare unbroken skin. They will in
feet the slightest skin wound or
scratch"
Rubber gloves are suggested as a
protection for those who are handling
carcasses or preparing rabbit for the
table. Fortunately cooking kills the
germs of the disease and cooked rab-
bit meat is safe as far as tularemia
s is concerned" 80 -
The sick rabbit is weary and indif-
ferent the bulletin points out. Hunt
ers should beware particularly of rab-
bits that are easy to catch.
Headaches, chills, fever and body
pains occurring from two to five
days after handling an infected rab-
bit are the first symptoms of the dis
ease. There is also, usually, a swol-
len area on the thumb or point of first
contact. The fever lasts week or
more and then becomes intermittent.
