Suggests Vaccination
Against Typhoid Fever
State Health Director Urges
Protection Before Taking
Vacation

Here's message to you from DR.
R. H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment of Health, if you are ar
ranging for your vacation or for hik-
ing or camping or weekend trips
away from home, and have not been
vaccinated against typhoid fever
within the last three to five years.
go to your doctor or the nearest
health officer" he said, "for the three
shots that will protect you against
typhoid. The three shots are given at
intervals of a week apart. As it takes
some time for the protection to be
established, don't wait until just be-
fore you start on your vacation. Have
it done now.
Each case of typhoid comes direct
ly or indirectly from some previous
case. You take typhoid by way of the
mouth. You eat or drink the germs
that cause the disease, in food, water
or milk, contaminated by the dis
charges from a person or persons i'll
with the disease or who have had it
at some time in the past.
Through the protection of public
water supplies from pollution; the
pasteurization of milk; the sanitary
supervision of foods and food-hand-
ling; the careful medical supervision
of every case that occurs; the close
study of possible sources of infection
and follow-up supervision of car
riers', great deal has been accomp-
lished to make the disease less Of a
menace than it was formerly.
"'Carriers' are persons who have
had the disease at some time and who
continue to discharge the typhoid
germs. If carriers are not careful in
their personal habits-if they do not
wash their hands thoroughly after
they have been to the toilet and al
ways before they prepare food for
others to eat-they are likely to con-
taminate any food they handle.
"There is much less typhoid fever
than there used to be. But there are
still sources of infection to which the
individual is exposed, that cannot be
completely controlled by health de-
partment precautionary activities.
Vaccination against typhoid is a per-
sonal safeguard against such sources
of the disease.
"In spite of the vigilance exercised
all the year-round by State, City, and
County Health Departments to see
that public water supplies, milk and
other foods are protected against con-
tamination, there is always the posi-
bility of pollution from some unfore
seen source Vaccination gives per-
sonal protection against this danger"
This advice applies, DR.. Riley said,
especially to boy and girl scouts,
campfire girls, hiking clubs, campers,
and trailer tourists, but it is also di-
rected to all others who are not pro-
tected against typhoid and who are
looking forward to holiday eXpe-
riences out-of-doors.

Homemakers' Column
Edited by Miss Mildred Barton, Home
Demonstration Agent for Garrett
County, Oakland.
THE FAMILY FOOD SUPPLY

This year-with all America de-
Tense minded-both home and COM
mercial canning are taking on new
importance.
To help stock the Nations pantry
for emergency needs, commercial can
neries are planning to increase their
output of certain nourishing canned
vegetables. The U. S. Department of
Agriculture last month initiated a
program intended to expand produc-
ton of tomatoes grown for canning to
more than half again what it was last
year.
We may guess that what makes
good sense for the Nations Pantry
often makes good sense for the family
pantry. Millions of quarts of good
food stored away in home pantries are
important to both family and national
preparedness.
With a home canning program
dovetailed into a carefully planned
home-production program, many
families can assure themselves of a
year round diet that is better bal
anced and more varied than one they
could afford to buy entirely at the
store. And when food prices rise, the
woman with plenty of canned food in
the pantry can count herself doubly
provident.
Home canning, of course, is most
economical on farms or in villages
where families have the land to grow
their own garden stuff. Usually it is
only when fresh fruits and vegetables
are available cheap from nearby that
it is economical for city families to
buy food to can. If you live on a farm,
your canning budget will fit into your
garden plans. In making budget,
figure how much food the family
needs for a year, then figure how
long the fresh foods are out of season.
From these figures a rather accurate
canning budget may be figured.
Following are fairly accurate fig
ures worked out for Garrett County.
The list below gives a minimum can
ming and storage budget for one per-
son for one year. To get the family
food budget, multiply by the number
of members in your family:
Canning Budget
Use during winter. Amount to can;
Greens (all kinds, 2 times a
week, quarts.
Tomatoes or Juice, 8 times a week,
II quarts.
Cabbage or Kraut, times week,
3 quarts.
Corn, asparagus, beans, peas, okra,
soup mixture, beets, carrots, times
a week, "a quarts.
Berries, cherries, peaches, plums,
pears, y rhubarb, apricots, grapes, 7
times a week, "a quarts.
Fruit juice, tomato juice, or kraut
juice, 3 times a week, 3 quarts.
Jams, jellies, marmalades, fruit but
tiers, 3 times a week, quarts.
Pickles and relishes, times week.
6 quarts.
Dried fruits, 2 times a week, 6
quarts.
Meats, 8 times a week, 6 quarts.
Storage Budget
Cabbage, medium (21a lb. heads)
Potatoes, l to Y bushels.
Vegetables, such as carrots, beets,
turnips, onions, to 1 u bushels.
Fruits, such as apples, pears, e to

more vegetables.

SIMPLIFYING THE TAX BLOW

SIMPLIFYING THE TAX BLOW
The senate finance committee re-
Gently voted for the Simplifed Chart
system for helping the public deter
mine its income tax. 1t now seems
certain that the t-Without-The-
Dizzy-Spell idea will become law and
that the new arrivals within the in
come tax classifcations will almost
be admitted on a Pay-As-You-Enter
system.
Secretary Morgenthau says that
with the rank and file of taxpayers
sit amt the money; it's the con-
fusion" He contends that man in
the lower brackets should be able to
go to post office, glance at chart
and find out what he owes Uncle
Sam without going nuts.
When the income tax was limited
to the Upper Brackets and only took
in a small proportion of the people,
it was all right to let them suffer.
There seemed no reason why they
shouldn't be given the works, up to
and including the headache, the
spots before the eyes, the night
sweats, the nervous breakdowns
and the mad call for lawyers.
But the Every-M
policy is to be dropped now that the
income tax laws have been eased so
that anybody can get in.
Uncle Sam knows that if the rank
and file of his citizens were ever
asked to go through all that trouble
making out an income tax blank,
there would be what Willie Howard
calls a "re-wolt." Either that or
more mental collapses than our in
stitutions could handle.
Hence the "Not A Headache In
A Carload" type of tax collection.
1t is all right as far as it goes,
but it doesn't go far enough. We
think the tax blank should be made
prettier. And carry page of fun
MES.
We submit the following extra sug-
gestions for making tax paying more
painless:
l. Make the tax blanks prettier
and include a page of funnies.

NO SUGAR SHORTAGE

NO SCOAR SHOh1AOE
Don't get alarmed about those ru-
mors of an impending sugar short
age. The department of agricul-
ture, which should know, isn't
Official statistics show that there
is plenty of refined sugar for civilian
needs. Production in the next few
months, plus the reserve stocks of
beet and cane sugar refners-
amounting to over 1,55O,0OO tons
will be more than enough to meet
consumer demands until the next
crop.
Only problem is what government
experts term "mal-location." Due
to consumer boarding, stocks in the
East are below normal, though rap
idly being replenished from the top
heavy reserves Of refneries in other
sections, chiefly the Gulf states.
AS a double precaution, the agri-
culture department has approved
sharp increases in 1941 marketing
quotas, which we're stepped up to
9,0O2,976 tons. This is 1886, 900 tons
more than the quotas announced at
the beginning of the year and mill
lion tons greater than those ap-
proved July 80.
Some producing areas, in
Guiding Cuba, are not expected to
supply their enlarged quotas, due to
heavy drains on their raw stocks,
but Puerto Rico and U. S. beet areas
have plenty of supplies on hand to
meet the new marketing allotments.
