i TO RESIST THE ATTACK
of the germs of many diseases snch at

means fur all o(
us light or die.
Thcso germs are
everywhere in tho
air we breathe.
Tho odds are in
favor of the
germs, If the liver Is Inactive and the
blood impure.
What Is needed most Is an increase In
the germ-fighting strength. To do this
successfully you need to put on healthy
pah, rouse the' liver to vigorous action,
so it will throw off these gorms, and pu
rify tho blood so that thorn will be no
" weak spots," or soil for gorra-growth.
We claim for Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery that It docs all this
In a way peculiar to itself.
It cures troubles caused by torpid liver

Agricultual War Work
In front of the main building of
the department of agriculture Is a big
service flag with the numerals "1,
196." Since tho flag was made the
number of former regular members
of the department now In the army
or the navy has risen to 1,537. In
addition 4,511 employes, Including
958 women, have been lost to the
department In other ways since the
declaration of a state of war with
Germany. Most of the 6,048 who
have left the department's service are
experts in their fields and were per
forming important .duties in the de
partment which required long train
ing and peculiar qualifications, some
of them special technical qualifica
tions. The department has been in
the position of having to Increase its
forces greatly to perform Its old dut
ies and meet the war time demands
for extended operations while at the
same time It has been losing largo
numbers of Its most effective and
trained employes. The difficulties in
securing men of the requisite train
ing and of retaining those already
In the service have been very great.
One hundred and sixty trained vet
erinarians of the department of agri
culture are working In 33 states, In
co-operation with- agricultural col
leges, state authorities and' local vet
erinarians, to control hog cholera.
The effectiveness of their efforts and
the success of modern methods of
combating this disease is shown by
the fact that during 1914 the hog
mortality from disease was 7,000,000
head, as compared to 3.000,000 in tho
year ending March, 1918, 90 per cent
of the deaths being due to hog chol
era. The losses In 1914 were equival
ent to the normal consumption of
pork and. pork products by the entire
population of the United States for
S7 days.
President Wilson . has Issued a
proclamation establishing three new
national forests In the east, the White
Mountain in Maine and New Hamp
shire, the Shenandoah In Virginia
and West Virginia, and the Natural
Bridge in Virginia. Each forest rep
resents the final steps in carrying
out the law passed by congress in
1911 providing for the purchase by
the government of forest lands on the
watersheds of navtgableirivers. Ad
ditional lanijs which have been pur
chased in the White mountains and
southern Appalachians will be pro
claimed national forests as their ac
cumulation reaches a point justify
ing the step.

such diseases as potato late blight
