HEALTH OFFICE WARNS AGAINST
 FLU EPID EMIC
Severe Form of Disease Tn Seattle-Advice Given
 to Curb 1t Here

Warning against influenza was is sued here today by Dr. H. c. De- vighne, head of the Territoria Health Department, who< based his caution on flu conditions now pre- vailing on the lower Pacific Coast
 In a public statement he advised all persons to exercise care with colds which might lead to influen- ga.
 In his statement, the Health Off, ficer said:
 "A severe form of influenza is now epidemic on the Pacific Coast with several hundred deaths report ed in Seattle. This will undoubted- ly be carried to Alaska and every effort should be made to anticipate it.
 Like all respiratory diseases, in- fluenza is always contracted by dl- tect contact from person to person, by coughing, sneezing, etc. The best means Of preventing it is tc keep all persons suffering from symptoms of a common cold at @ distance. Avoid crowds. Avoid any one with cold Avoid sudden ex- posture to extremes of temperature overeating and constipation.
 If you have a cold, go to bed, eat lightly, drink an abundance cf hot water, and remember you can easily pass your cold on to other members of the family by coughing and sneezing in their vicinity"

TREES AS MEMORIALS

Officers of the National So
ciety of the ID. A. r. early this
year will designate another
American tree which is worthy
of preservation because of it's
historical Importance.
This action will be taken in
accordance with the Society's
purpose to maintain living
memorials between the pres
ent and the past. The chosen
tree will be treated by Davey
Tree Surgeons whose services
are donated by former Congess-
man Martin L. Davey.
One tree a year is thus to be
preserved, and all the trees
that have been saved fer pos
terity are to be kept in good
health insofar as possible.
Unfortunately, many of the
nations most historic trees
have been the victimes of ne
glect, and some of them are in
such condition that their dura-
ton of life is necessarily
limited.
The famous Land Office Elm
at Marietta, Ohio, thought to be
the Oldest in that state was re-
stored last year. So poor was
the condition of the patient
that a major operation" was
necessary. The tree was stand
ing when the first permanent
English settlement was made
in the Northwest territory.
Shading the land office, where
final settlements were made
of Revolutionary war scrip,
and allotments of bounty lands
were made and plats recorded,
the tree was tied up with all the
hopes and fortunes of the
pioneers in Ohio.

COURSE TO HELP BUYERS
JUDGE GOODS OFFERED


For several years consider
able effort has been made to
establish standard grades in
the marketing Of farm products
but it remained for the univer-
sity of Maryland, according to
S. B. Shaw, Chief, Inspector of
the State Department of Mar
kets, to provide an opportunity
for people to become familiar
with the points they should
consider in determining the
quality of food products offered
them. 1t is the aim of this new
course, Mr.. Shaw says, 10 give
practical information to buy
ers, whether they are buying
on a small scale for home use,
or on a large scale for restau-
rants, hotels, chain and other
retail stores. AS a consequence,
he states, they will be able to
spend their money more intel
ligently.
A feature of the course is the
demonstrations given in CON
nection with the several pro-
ducts studied. These, demon
STATIONS are given by persons
who have years of actual ex-
perance in the handling and
purchase of food products and
aret illustrated by specimens of
the products which clearly
show the different points affec-
ting the quality. In addition,
those taking the course are
taken for visits to various in
situations, including the labora-
tories of the U. S. Food and
Drug Administration, where
they are shown the methods of
testing the quality, of different
food PRODUCTS, methods of
preservation of foods, and the
standards that are set up for
different foods.
Education Of this type has an
important effect upon the sale
of farm products, in the opinion
of Mr.. Shaw. The women in
the homes, he believes, are the
most important food inspec-
tors, because they do the bulk
of the buying and the amount
they buy depends to a consider
able extent upon their success
to them. Any effort, he says,
to them Any effort, he states,
that results in more intelligent,
and therefore, more salts
fed buying will increase the
amount of products purchased.

Scotland Yard in London derives its
name from the palace, which from
the time Of Edgar to Henry II, was

kings whenever they visited that city.
Scotland Yard in London is the head

FIRE WASTE GOES UP

Nineteen-thirty may have been a
depression year," but in one phase
of our economic life we managed to
register an advance" over 1929-in
fire waste. According to the Nation
al Board of Fire Underwriters, the
total loss for the year was about
1888, 612, 600, as compared with $422,-
215,0OO in the preceding twelve
month.
The highest yearly loss on record,
of more than half a billion, occurred
in 1926, and then for three success
sive years the rate went down. II
appeared that America was paying
some heed to the lessons of fire pre-
.yention. But now fire waste is
again ascending, due principally to
carelessness and ignorance.
Only a great cooperative move
ment, on national scale, can allay
the fire evil. We observe, annually,
fire prevention week. The exer-
else of caution, of ordinary COM
nonsense, would as readily lead us
to observe fire prevention year.
A glance at the statistics should
prove to the thinking citizen that fire
waists is a problem, of both social
and economic Importance, that every
American should study.

The Republican representation in
the State Senate is made up of men
OF whom that party has every reason
to be proud, and not the slightest
reason to be ashamed. All are men
OF high personal character, not only
as to citizenship, but also as to their
ability and real desire to do their
best for the welfare of the state at
large, as representatives of their
local communities, whose immediate
agents they are in the General
Assembly of the state. And in the
present session the minority men,
bers sin both houses, but especially
in the Senate, are far above the av-
erage OF former years, not only so
far as their own party is concerned,
but also are on an equality with
representatives of the majority. In
other words, all are gentlemen, all
are men whose character and ability
are such that neither their imme-
date constituents nor their party
have any reason to be other than
proud of them, and well satisfied with
any records they make during the
term for which they have been
chosen.-The Marylander.

Five miles back from our main
state highways, who knows what
conditions he will find? asks Cover
nor Roosevelt of New York. There
the highways are poor and hazardous,
essentially in'the same condition as
in the time of our grandfathers.
This is not an extagerted state
ment. In all parts of the country
magnificent, fast trunk highways go
from city to city, from state to state.
But few miles away farmers are
attempting the impossible task OF
employing motor transport for their
commodities and themselves on
roads that were unsatisfactory even
in the horse and wagon days.
Here is one of the main causes of
farm depression. Industrial pros
perity has as one of its cornerstones
quick, efficientand economical trans
portation of goods over paved high
ways.
We will not have agricultural pros
perity until farming areas are given
the same advantage until, in short,
they are provided with year-round,
waterproof surfaced roads that are
not seriously affected by weather.
1t is significant that many of our
leading farm believers" are turning
their attention to this problem.
