KEEP YOUR COUGH, GERMS
AND SNEEZES TOYOURSELF
Get Rid of a Cold as Soon as You
Can, But Consider Others

eff you find yourself developing a
cold, take the best possible care of
yourself. Get rid of it as soon as you
can, but have some thought for the
other fellow, too. Keep your cough,
your sneezes and your germs to your
self. Don't broadcast them. If you
have to cough or sneeze, do it into
your handkerchief, please Wait I'M
til you are we'll to shake hands. Show
your friendliness in other ways" This
is the advice of DIR. R. H. Riley, Di-
rector of the State Department of
Health, to victims of the ever-present
and so-called common" cold.
eve talk about catching a cold"
DR.. Riley continued, "but usually the
cold catches US. 1t usually finds US
when our powers of resistance are
lowered; the germs enter and take
possession. Each person who develops
cold becomes a carrier Of the dis
ease, temporarily at least. While in
that state, he is menace to all who
come in contact with him. A sort Of
endless chain is established that is
hard to break.
"What we cali cold is brought
about by organisms so minute that
they cannot be seen even by the most
powerful microscope. These organ
isms are found in the secretions from
the nose and throat Of those who are
suffering from a cold. When they
cough or sneeze the germs are spray
ed out into the air, or into the face
of persons nearby.
"Some of the ,infective material is
also left on the hands every time the
victim of cold touches his mouth or
nose, and the germs are carried to
everything the sufferer touches. On
that account, handshaking is one of
the things that should be omitted by
the person who has a cold. Another
way by which the person who is suf-
fering from a cold can help to pro-
tect others is by washing his hands
frequently and thoroughly, with
plenty of soap and water.
"The person who has cold needs
rest, quiet, very light diet, the ad
vice Of his own doctor, and proper
care. The quickest way to get rid Of
a cold, and the best way to prevent
other people from getting it, is to go
to bed, send for your doctor, and stay
in bed until the symptoms have dis
appeared and your doctor tells you
that you can go back to work or to
school,"

THESE 137 new Ford cars represent one
of the largest deliveries ever made to a
municipality at one time.
81 radio.equipped Ford scout cars were
traded in on this purchase. They had been
operated day and night for two years in
heavy traffic and all kinds of weather.
Their individual records ranged from
78,434 miles to l43, 1913 miles with grand
total of 2,283,O9 miles. The operating
cost of the 2 cars was 1924 cents mile
less than 2 / % cents. This cost included
all fuel, oil, tires, repairs and every other
item except depreciation and insurance.
Of 577 Ford cars in Detroit City service,
the 800 in the Police Department travelled
total of 6,591 ,937 miles during the past
fiscal year, at an average cost of 20 cents
mile.
Many claims have been made on operat-
ing costs, but here in the carefully kept
motor car records of the City of Detroit is
positive proof of Ford economy.
In the paragraphs above, it is seen that

Day and night, twenty-four hours day,

John M. Jasmann. who farms north
west of McClusky; said Thursday that
he would cut his entire crop for feed.
Jasmann is convinced that his grain,
used for feed for livestock, will mean
much more than If harvested and
threshed, when harvesting and thresh-
ing costs are considered.
That crops in the area from eight
to 10 miles northwest of McClusky
are better than in this immediate
vicinity, is evidenced by the fact that
many of the fields further north will
be harvested with binders. Jasmann
said he had seer at least n field
