County Health A. N. Johnson. M. I)., director Doimlas county health department. At a mectiim held in the Kiddle hlKh sell-mi auditorium Friday eve ning. May in, under the auspices of Die Kiddle granue ami the Douglas County I lea 1th association Dr. (I. ('. HclltiiKcr. superintendent of the Ore noil State Tuberculosis hospital, was speaker. After a short Intro duction the meet inn was given over l'i answerlnc questions pre sented by the members of Ihe audience. Dr. Ilelhuger bennn by saying that tuberculosis must come trom someone else. For a prac tical control of tuberculosis it Is necessary to know where it comes troin and how II spreads, in some places It comes from tuberculosis in tattle, hut this Is not true in our country. About of the dairy cattle In Knsland are tuberculous, while Ihe state 'T Oregon has les than J'r. our problem ts not that ot the disease spreading from cal lle to human beings, hut Its spread muting human beings from each other. A few of the (pn slions that were presented anil discussed were as follows : Is there any danger lo the Indi vidual fr-im a tuberculin test? To this Dr. Hrllincer replied that there is aletnlutclv no daiiitcr from the lest. It has been used in Oieyon about I.M,i'tii! limes but theie iw no record of any really serious re stilts. Tuhercnlti) cannot grow within nnyones system, it is a. sterile extract, anil It Is impossible tor an thing to grow from it- The person who lias become infected with the germs of tuberculosis be comes sensitive to the particular suhstame used in the test and the result ts a positive reaction. Ilin hni an Infection and having Ihe disease are tvvn diflerent thins. The (utn'tculin test is not a tet fur ItibercuWsis as a disease. Onl? about otic-tilth of (hose who have a positive reaction have really ser ious Immes tn the Iuuks Ikies the amount ot reHtti'Jll to he lubert tiliu test t ml lent e the amount of Infection present Pen pies sensitivity varies n great deal.; The extent to which we react is not related to the seriousness ol the Infection. Sometimes a very liny speck of Inlectioti may sensi tize us so Hint we will have a ne-' icr reaction. An extremely sore aim does not mean that the. iudt du.il bat. diu more teiicu tiou hie than someone elt-e a In bat a very slight reaction. Tests that look bad never cause ony perman ent barm or cause any disease. How often snould negative re altors repeat the test? The gen eral rule to follow Is to repent the test once a year. However, the test can be repeated any time if the circumstances suggest It. A yearly test helps to show the com munity situation and helps point to the soureo of Infection If one exists. For Instance, Ihe father of j two hfljs who was apparently in 'excellent health was found to be an open case because the hoys abruptly changed from negative to positive within a year and follow up discovered the father as the source. If one has a posltivn re action there must have been u con tact somewhere, either direct or indirect. All those associated with the positive reactor should ho cheoUed.1 including particularly ev ery member of the -household group, ., ... (To be continued) Funeral Held ot Riddle For Louis T.

' Plague Germs Laid To Wild Rodents Rural areas are now more likely to experience outbreaks .of bubonic or pneumonic plague than are met ropolitan centers, according to Dr. Frederick Meyer, director of the Hooper Institute of Medical l(e search at the University of Califor nia, In un uddreBs at Oregon State college fcponaored by the school of science. The reason for this, according to Dr. Meyer, is that wild rodents, rather than rats, are now tho chief carriers of the plague infection. All apecles of pqnirrels are partlcular Iv subject to this disease. Hence, there is real danger in handling these animals, or in coming in con tact with fleas from them. As such centers of plague in fection have been found in 10 of the 11 western states, this is a dirense that westerners, at least, wilt have to learn to live with and tat:e precautions against, said Dr. Meyer. He particularly urged that summer cabins be made rpdent proof, that squirrels, chipmunks, or other rodents never be used for pets, and that serious mortality among squirrels or other rodents be reported M health authorities. Hairy Vetch Acreage in Oregon Can Be Expanded COnVAIXIS, May 20. (AP) Oregon hairy vetch acreage, doubl ed this year, still can be expanded. G. K. Ilyslop of the Oregon State college crops department, says.

"Donclas and other counties have so-called non-crop pasture land that is suitable for vetch. We be lieve that hairy vetch acreage can safety be quadrupled. About 50.000 acres of hairy vetch and 70.000 acres of field pens will be produced this year, Hystop's sur vey showed. Oregon Wheat Acreage Under AAA Program Set WASHINGTON.

War Relief Gifts Urged by Sprague All residents of the state of Ore gon are urged by Governor Charles Sprague to assist in (the war re lief compaigrt now In' progress by the American Ked Cross. The Douglas county chapter, which is endeavoring to raise Its quota of 91,000 through public contribu tions, ban received a copy of a pro clamation by Governor Sprague us follows: "The American Red Cross. In full realization of the burden of suffer ing which will fall on innocent peo ples in countrlea hitherto neutral and now brought into the orbit of total war, has moved promptly to launch a campaign for ten million dollars to he - used for war relief purposes. "Knowing how deeply the hearts of our people are touched over this spread of woe, I call on the people of Oregon to respond generously to this uppeal. We sing lustily "God llless America." Are we not willing to share our blessings with those who merely through accidents or geography find themselves in the path of devastating war? "The contributions will be so licited and handled through the regular fled Cross organization. 1 urn assured by lied Cross officials that every dollar contributed will go direct to war relief without de duction of any kind." Eggs Among Best Foods for Protein, Vitamins Uggs rank with milk as among nature's best food sources, says Miss Lucy A. Case, extension nu tritionist at O. S. C. They are u storehouse of protein, minerals, and vitamins whether the shells are white or brown. The protein In both the yolk and white is the efficient kind that la necessary for the growth and the repair of body tissues. The min erals found In the yolk include lots of iron and good supplies of cal cium and phosphorus. The iron content of egg yolk Is especially Important, because ordinary diets are apt' to be low in this impor tant mineral. So important are egg yolks as a source of Iron that they are regularly fed to infants, starting at five or six months, when nature's emergency supply, given at birth, gives out. Tho amount fs gradually increased to one yolk a day at about one year of age.

Candid Camera To Spy On Farmers Al Feature Service WASHINGTON. Peeping Toms are getting up in the world the department of agriculture Is equip ping them with planes for a game Of aerial "I spy" on U. S. farmers. Contracts totaling $200,700 have been let for aerial photography of $102,800 square milcH In Hi states. They didn't order the pictures Just because they wanted a nice portrait of a county for the fam ily album. They wanted to see if Farmer Brown was fudging on his AAA soil conservation con; tracts. Some of the farmers took the conservation benefit payments, and then didn't reduce acreage as contracted. But the too-candid aerial camera puts the stopper on that stunt. Farmer Briwn's acres show up In the aerial pictures, and a gadget called a plan line ter quickly tells how much land Farmer Brown has planted, how much Is lying fallow, and all the other facts.

Canada Thistles May Be Ryegrass Seed Problem Special effort may tie necessary tn many ryegrass fields. to prevent inclusion of Canada thistle seed at harvest time, says G. R. Hyslop of the division of plant Industries at Oregon State college. The long moist spring this year Is expected to retard the maturity of the rye grass until Canada thistles become a problem. Ordinarily western Oregon ryegrass matures before the seeds of Canada thistle ripen. Perhaps the most practical way for growers to guard against this danger is to mow any patches of Canada thistle in ryegrass fields in order to retard their maturity until after the ryegrass seed is har vested. Under the new federal seed act, auy noxious weed seed must be listed on the tag, which is likely to cause considerable mar keting difficulty if Canada thistle is allowed to get In. developes your 8 x- posurt Mm, givts M ADDINTf t 2- r ii l will ENLARGEMENT?
