C, Feb. 7. (United Press) A resolution by which the fight against tuberculosis would be made thoroughly national, with indig ent sufferers from the plague main tained jointly by the states ofMheir residence and by the federal govern ment, is before congress today. Representative Hillard of Colorado, a student of tuberculosis and methods of fighting it, sponsored the bill. It provides for immediate designation of hospitals and sanitoria already estab lished, for the treatment of the white plague. To these would be consigned cases of consumption. Provision is made for the treatment of indigent tubercular cases. The gov ernment would pay 60 cents a day for each of such patients and the state in which the patients reside would pay $1 a day. The actuality of today seldom looks as good as the theory of yesterday, i WANTED Real EsUte WANTED Listings of good wheat and stock ranches, general farm lands and lands adapted to growing alfalfa.

NATIONAL BABY WEEK NOT AN OUTBURST BY MRS. ETTA R. GOODWIN (Of the Federal Children's Bureau, ' Written for the United Press.) Note: Mrs. Goodwin conducts all the Baby Week correspondence for the Children s Bureau and may be ad dressed at Washington. Editor. Washington, D. C, Feb. 7. The second National Baby Week will be celebrated in the United States May 1 to' 6, inclusive. My correspondence today indicates that a majority of the 14,000 incorporated communities in the country will take part in it. Please don't get the wrong idea of Baby Week. It is not a sentimental outburst. It is a serious movement to popularize certain proved principles of baby care and community responsi bility for baby welfare. The keynote of a Baby Week cam paign is cooperation. This was true of the 1916 celebration and the in quiries pouring in at the children's bureau today and the local plans al Price only $2B00.

Of course the 2,500,000 members of the General Federation of Women's clubs aro cooperating. The general federation and the children's bureau were jointly responsible for the first suggestion for a nation-wide Baby Week. The way chambers of commerce and other men's organizations of various kinds, and national associations devot ed to one or another special prob lems, turn in and help is surprising. Most impressive is the work of state health officials and of exten sive divisions of state universities and agricultural colleges. These work with state federations of women's clubs and with each other in outlining special programs adapted to the conditions of an individual state and they help local celebrations in numberless ways, with lectures, exhibit material, bul letins and personal advice. Each of these agencies is equipped to make its own special contribution to the campaign: the child-welfare committees which aro being organized in women's clubs of every type, the special committees studying local birth registration, the associations do ing infant-welfare work, the public "health officials of city and state, the state universities through their ex tension work, and civic organizations of various kinds. Our correspondence indicates that they all recognizo in iBaby Week a unique opportunity. An artificial butter coming into use in Europe to replace the creamery va riety is made of cocanut oil and hy drogen, blended with milk. Diamonds are increasing in price again, the reason alleged being the lack of workmen in South Africa on account of the war. In the early dys of the American colonies, greasei'. paper was used in the windows in the absence of glass, and candles were in use up to 1750, when lamps of whale oil were first used. You probably can stand tough luck better than good luck; there aro those who never knew trouble unt'l they came into money. 71 Market Place Am going to offer this place fully equipped at a sacrifice on account of sickness.
