Big California Irrigation District Of much Interest to the landown ers in the proposed Talent-Ashland Irrigation district Is the successful consummation of preliminary plans by the Anderson-Cottonwood irriga tion district near Redding, Cal. This district has been formed and bonds voted to the extent of $480,000. These bonds have been delivered to the purchaser and construction of the project will go forward at once. The proposition to secure water on 32,000 acres of rich farming and orchard land In the district includes a tunnel under a portion of the city of Red ding, other tunnels and ditches. San Leandro, Cal., Reporter: "It is astonishing how many business men can be talked into taking space In a shart. or frame, or register, or some other thing that has no excuse for existence.

Wills of Boston, Mass. Miss Wills Is assistant editor of the Scientific Temperance Journal and is a scientific temperance lec turer for the education department of the National Anti-Saloon League. She is at present touring the state with the social service exposition, which was shown last week at Med ford: What the School Can Do to Conserve Public Health "To cure was the voice of the past; To prevent, the divine whisper of today." When my father, now 76 years old, was a school boy one of the children died of malignant scarlet fever. The parents had a public funeral attended by all the child's schoolmates with the result that within a very short time there was a funeral in almost every home In the community. By the time his children were in school they no longer held public funerals for scarlet fever victims but tuberculosis wiped out whole fami lies of children, and malaria some times Infected whole communities. A child with a little cough came to school and within three weeks 32 of the 33 children were down with measles (the 33rd had previously had it) and soon' there were 60 cases in the one school district. The school was still distributing disease. Teeth were so sadly neglected as they are still In Europe and many young people actually sported arti ficial or gold-crowned teeth, bed room windows were often nailed up for the entire winter, bath tubs were almost unknown, at least in the rural communities and its nearest cousin, the wash tub, was not requisitioned in its place with anything like the necessary frequency. Up to 1865 there was little exact knowledge of the nature and effects of alcohol and other narcotics, germs had not been discovered and there was no thought of the school's op portunity and duty In conserving hu man health and life. By-Products of Science and Sociology But now the hour of the new epoch strikes. In the past we had cured, if one could, the drunkard, the tu berculous or the typhoid patient; If be died his frineds spoke of the dis pensation of Providence and bore their losses with what resignation they might, but now the by-products of science and sociology began, as they have so often done, to yield richer fruitage that the main prod uct at first sought. In France the silk worm industry was so threatened by an infectious disease of the worms that the French government took the matter up, and appointed Pasteur to search for the remedy and after painstaking labor he discovered that the disease was caused by bacilli (germs) which were communicated from one silk worm to another and he was able to prevent the disease. Later he discovered the germs and the vaccination remedy for splenic fever in cattle and sheep, and for hydrophobia in men. The search for a remedy to save an Industry re vealed the cause and so the remedy for deadly diseases In human beings was found. In 1882 Koch discovered the germs of tuberculosis, in 1890 Behrlng, the anti-toxin treatment for diptheria, and, later, we learned that mos quitos carry germs of malaria or yellow fever, fleas carry bubonic plague and we swat the fly because he loads his feet with typhoid and other germs. About the same time other epoch making discoveries were made by German investigators who began to prove by exact experimentation that alcohol is a depressant of muscle and mental activity, a hablt-formlng drug. Sir Benjamin Ward Richardson, of England, when a student got hold of this evidence of the real nature of alcohol, carried It across to England made new experiments and embodied the results in his famous Cantor lec tures, which presently came to Amer ica and fell into the hands of Mrs. Mary H. Hunt, of Boston. Flitting tlio Truth to Work. She saw that although untold thousands since the days of Noah had suffered, sickened and died as a re sult of the use of alcohol were still using it because they beleived the fallacies that It Is a medical cure- all, that it stimulated muscle and mental activities, is a good food, a social necessity, a harmless luxury, worst of all, that drunkenness Is not In the nature of the alcohol in what ever form used, but In the weakness of the man. So long as the majority of law makers believed these fallacies they would vote to continue the use and the sale of alcoholic liquors. So she reasoned that since self-preservation Is the first great law of life, and If a majority of the citizens learn the truth about alcohol before they are enslaved by Its narcotic effects, common sense will cause them to ab stain from Its use and to vote for its suppression tor beverage pur poses. The majorities must be taught. The School to the Rescue Where alone were all the future majorities? Where else but in the public schools and her statesman-like plan, at a stroke, comprehended the education of the 18,000,000 Bchool children and through them the pres ervation of the American republic from alcoholism. The school was and Is the only uni versal agency by which to teach the call of the health and the dangers of alcohol and other narcotics. Mrs. Hunt led the W. C. T. U. and Christian hosts, which In 1882 in little Vermont, placed the first temperance education law on the statutes of any state or country. Ore gon and many other states followed In short order and in just 20 years every state and territory had made mandltory the teaching of hygiene and temperance in the public schools. Mrs. Hunt gave 25 years of her life without remuneration to this great work and died penniless in this world's goods but rich in the knowl edge of a patriotic duty accomplished and neither she nor the W. C. T. U. ever profited a penny from the phys iologies produced in millions to meet the new demand. The text-books bad to be created for it was a new subject and the first hooks In the subject adapted to younger children were Indeed, as their titles Indicated, "Pathfinders." '. Like all their illustrous successors they devoted at least three-fourths of their space to teaching the care of the teeth, to temperance In eat ing, fresh air, soparate cups, and towels, correct carriage and a small section always taught that alcohol and tobacco are habit-forming drugs, liable to cause sickness and prema ture death; and many books also warned against soothing syrups for babies. How Did It Work? The true American judges all theories by the test of results and after a time those who were inter ested In the liquor traffic tried to repeal the laws and the rest of the people asked "what results"? A New" York investigation cover ing every county in that state of a million school children reported that the children became rebels against the common drinking cup and towel, they let In fresh air, cared for their teeth and in many cases refrained from cigarettes and alcoholic bever ages and they slowly but surely edu cated their parents. The Review of Reviews reported that their Investigators in Europe, who studied the returned emigrants, found them with open bed room win dows at night then an unheard-of thlmr. and with teeth much better cared for, all of which they had learned from the American school Instruction.

Home Made Goods Home Bakery 69 North Main Street Which Do You Prefer? It is important for reasons of health and practical economy for every housekeeper to ask herself this question: "Do I prefer a pure baking powder like Royal, made of cream of tartar derived from grapes, or am I willing to use a baking powder made of alum or phosphate, both derived from mineral sources?" The names of the ingredients printed on the label show whether the kind you are now using or any brandy new or old, that may be offered is a genuine cream of tartar powder, or merely a phosphate or alum compound. Royal Baking Powder contains no alum nor phosphate. ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO. New York Ished American doctors, reported af ter a careful investigation that this instruction was largely responsible for the general interest in health building and the lowered death rate (the average length of life has in creased more than four years), quar antine is more easily enforced and the teeth books are quite as good as those in older subjects. And the newspapers have pointed out that the attitude of business in requiring abstinence of employees and' the passage of prohibition laws have come as a result of the system atic dissemination of the truth about alcohol. Today we have domestic science classes, month hygiene, anti-tuberculosis societies, better baby shows, public sanitation and we have quar antine against disease, and pure food laws. Is the Work Done? A careful study of a number of backward children in Medford show ed that every one of them had de cayed teeth pouring poisons into the system teeth unfit to properly chew food and a number of them had hot, sodden cakes and black coffee for breakfast, one indication that the systematic Instruction in hygiene had been neglected, and a number of en quiries developed the tact that In this section as In many others this essential instruction is no longer be Ing given as it should be. We must have hygiene and temper ance well taught In order to hold the ground we have gained. We have In the U. S. some 20,000,000 people of foreign birth or extraction, accus tomed to the use of alcoholic liquors and untrained In American hygienic requirements. Nearly every advertising medium coaxes onr boys and men to smoke clgaretts, more tempting and de structlve to boys than alcohol for no boy can come to his full glory and strength of manhood If he uses to bacco regularly while growing up. And we have an organized liquor trafflo seeking with millions of monev and every other means, fair or foul, to repeal tho prohibition laws of this and other states and to keep the saloon in our nation, and accordingly the new generations arts' Ing must be taught.
