The Republicans say they believe
that Pinchot's decision Is really an aid
to Reed. Equally sure are some Of
the Democrats that Pinchot's candi-
dacy would have been a detriment to
Guffey, since it would divide the
strength Of the New Deal. You can
take your choice about that. Pinchot
would have taken some votes, un-
doubtedly from both Of the others.

Malaria Is a disease that occurs
quite often in this country. 1t is
frequently characterized by chills
n fever. When it Is allowed to &c
unchecked it is apt to result in per.
nicious and fatal forms. The disease
WAS formerly more common, but has
greatly diminished In frequency and
severity, lowing to the draining OF
large areas and the dissemination OF
knowledge In regard to its causes
and spread.
The terrible African fevers which
kill SO many natives and destroy the
white men who attempt to live there
are OF a malaTial origin 1t is called
Gold Coast or Black Water fever.
The same type of fever was formerly
not uncommon In some of u states
and known as BLACK Jaundice or
Hemorrhagic fever.
Even today some people think that
malaria fever Is due to a miasm In
the atmosphere. They are very much
afraid OF breathing the mist that
rise from swamps late in the even
ings or at night, for fear OF catching
malaria fever. There are no grounds
at all for such fears.
Malaria a only be contracted by
the bite OF a certain mosquito called
the Anopholes. When this mosquito
bites a person with malaria he draws
up with his blood the parasite that

inhabit the red blood cells. When the
mosquito sucks them into her body
she injects them into the blood OF
the next victim whom she chances to
bite. 'Fhe parasites grow and multi

whelm the unsuspecting patient that

ague.
Only n kind OF mosquito carries
this parasite and she Is the female OF
species. These mosquitoes breed
IN stagnant and slow moving water.
Some people are malaria carriers.
They harbor the parasites in their
blood. though they seem to be In
good health They are as dangerous
to the community In the presence OF
mosquitoes as though they had chills
and fever, for the anopoles carry the
parasites from their blood to other
whom they bite and causes
them to develop malarial fever which

Set Farm Prices Loom

The dream of American agriculturists may come
true If a news dispatch from Washington is accurate.
Assertion the government is now contemplating
a plan whereby farmers will be financed by loans
awaiting the rise in prices of the various agricultural
products, is a variant of the dream that farmers will
some day be able to command the market and compel
just returns based on cost of production.
Under the proposed plan the farmer viii be
obliged to sell when the fair price set is reached As
illustration. supposing the government set q price Of
one dollar a bushel at the home market Upon reach
ing that figure the farmer must haul and sell his
wheat, else the common idea OF holding off on a rising
market would doubtless prevail to an extent where
avid speculation would set in. Having last year e1-
perimented with the plan on cotton and found 1t work
able and greatly to the profit of the cotton raiserr.
our farm administration is contemplating its extern
sion to agricultural products generally
One can forsee a bone of contention will be the set
price for wheat or other grain, with the usual bubble
as to restraint, dictation and force generally advanced
by those who are not and have never been the farm
ers true friends. Every government aid to a~gricultur-
lists has been fought by interests whose toes are
stepped on under any plan to restrict production or to
raise prices to a fair level. Above all else they want
them to remain scrambled. disorganized and distinctly
individualistc, when the easy prey OF organized inter
ests handling their products. You will recall the vic
ious propaganda directed at the allotment plan. that
has proved a godsend to Montana and other grain
growing states.
1t they will continue to cooperate with this admin
istration that has gone beyond all reckoning In its
aid and sympathy, a happier day for agriculture Is in
store. BY graduation the farmer may eventually arrive
at the Utopia where he will at least have some voice
in dictation of prices for his wares. The new plan is
a beginning In that direction.

The Chance Club

You won't find the address Of the '-TakeA-Chance

never been incorporated, and it has no club house. But
a good many thousand Americans belong to Though
they wouldn't admit it-and no 4fraternal' orEaniza-
ton In the world exacts such high dues
The ritual OF the club runs something like this:
II win always take a chance when driving my car.
I will cut corners and drive on the wrong side OF the
road If | happen to feel like it. / will make a regular
habit OF passing other cars on hills and curves. ! win
always drive faster than road conditions warrant, and
I will be especially careless when 1t is raining or snow
ing and visibility is poor / vii not make regular n
spections Of my cars lights, brakes and steering Ill
take it for granted that they are good enough ! Will
make no effort to learn the traffic laws Of my state
and community, and ii I do happen to discover some
Of them accidentally, / will break them at every op-
portunity. I'll let the other driver watch out for me as
well as himself, and I'll act as IL the highways ana
streets were my private property.
NTn pay no attention to traffic lights and stop
signs. and I'll do my best to practice none Of the
courtesies Of the road"
The members of the Club" follow
this ritual to the letter, and the result Is that each year
some 10000 people are needlessly killed In automooil
accidents and property lis destroyed to the extent Of
$1,000, 100000 0

FAMED WOMAN
 PIONEER DEAD
One of First Whites to Go Into Business in
 Oklahoma

Kansas City, Mo. GU. P.)-When Mrs. W. O. Graham, 80, died here recently, the career of one of the Southwest's most venturesome pioneers came to an end.
 Mrs. Graham was one of the last survivors of that group of Kansas school teachers who taught in the old sod houses that used to dot the Kansas prairies. She also was one of the first white women to go into business when Okla- homa was thrown open to coloni- Zation.
 She was only 12 when her par ents brought her west from her birthplace in Caldwell, O. A. year later, at 13, she successfully passed the teachers examination and be- came school marm' at the sod schoolhouse at Gueda, Kan, By the time she was IS she. was county superintendent of schools.
 School teaching had become too tame, though, and when Okla homa was opened, Mrs. Graham decided to try her fortunes in the new territory. She rode horseback into Oklahoma, steeled in the town of Perry, and opened mill linery store. Her supplies had been ordered ahead, and as soon as they arrived by wagon train she was ready.
 Later she established a millinery business in Kansas City, which she operated until about ten years ago.

CANADIAN HOG
 MEN PROSPER
Trade Agreements Made in 1882 Bring Back
 Prosperity

Montreal. (UP)-The trade agreements reached at the Im- perial Conference at Ottawa in 1892 gradually are bringing back prosiery to Canadian hob breeders, but they are the only ones who are rejoicing. The Canadian housewife is not, because she is paying much more for her bacon now than she did before.
 To-day, hog breeders in Canada, who were getting $3.75 for 100 pounds a year ago, are getting $9.65, or rought, $20 for 22O- pound hog, as compared with about $S a year ago.
 The sharp increase has been caused through supply and de- mand. Great Britain always has been an importer of pork prod ucts, but she was, up to year ago, getting most of her supplies from Denmark or Ireland. Then came the Ottawa agreement, and under it Canada got a preference in the English market. The quota from Denmark was cut consider ably, and because of the Irish troubles the pigs from that coun- try ceased to enter the English market. The result has been that the export trade in Canadian hogs has been going up by leaps and bounds, until to-day the English market is consuming 40 per cent of the total kill. That means that there is 40 per cent less to be con- stunned in the domestic market, and the inevitable law has been work ing again-short supplies, which means increased prices.
