THE UNITED STATES LIFE TABLES tthHE Denartment of Commerce, through the bureau of the I Census, announces that the second official publication on life-tables, derived from births, deaths and populations in this country is soon to be issued. These tables show conditions as they existed in 1890, in 1901, and in 1910, thus making it possible to study the changes which have taken place in mortal ity during two decades. v ; It is shown that mortality at practically all ages is higher among men than among women. In particular it appears that the most favorable mortality in this country is found among women living in the rural districts. The rural . classes, regardless of sex, enjoy a much lower mortality near ly the entire range of life than . those living , in the cities. While the expectation of life, both among men nnH wnmen in most classes has steadily increased, them , is no indication of any definite lengthening of the span or life. Jn other words, while almost all classes of persons are living to an older average age, the limiting age of human life does not seem to have advanced. . . , In 1901 the expectation of life among white females at birth was about three years more than among white males, and in 1910 the excess in favor of the females had increased to almost three and one-half years. There seems to have been a genral improvement lor all classes for the ages up to about age 40 for men and age 50 for women, except for the negro population. Above these ages no improvement is shown, and in some cases the mortality,At the older ages in 1910 was actually less favor able than it was in 1901. , .. '. 1 An examination of the infant mortality tables indicates a de cided improvement in the infant mortality rate in most classes of the population between 1901 and 1910. The expectation of life of children born in 1910 also shows a considerable improvement over the expectation of life of children born in 1890 and 1901 in practically all classes of the population. The infant mortality in the rural districts was considerably lower than that in the urban districts both In 1901 and 1910, but the diference in favor of the rural districts was not as great in 191 r as it was in 1901, indicating that the efforts to improve infant mortality conditions in our cities are undpubtedly meeting with success. ' ' ! WrJEN GREAT PLEASURES COST LITTLE WHERE COOPERATION IS REQUIRED H3W bitterly the so-called drug addict resents the plight in which he finds himself was shown by a man recently ta ;en into custody by the local police. "If I saw a man trying to influence a brother' of mine to form the drug habit I would feel like killing that man," the prisoner said. It takes but little imagination to understand this man's sen timents. The public is familiar in a measure with the wretch edness of the confirmed drug user. It is needless to expand upon that subject but it is timo for all right meaning folk to join in every possible way to curb the use of narcotics; It may be hard to rescue the man who has long been addicted to the habit but practical and timely steps can be taken to see that young people are protected. There are reports current in Pendleton and also in other cities of the state that the use of narcotics is more common than is generally supposed. The subject has attracted particular at tention in Portland with the result a concerted move is being made by the, officials in western states to see if the abuse can not be checked. Governor Olcott has taken the lead in the move and it is a good move. But by the very nature of the traffic it is not an easy one for police officers to handle with entire success. Frequently they . catch a dope vendor. But it is much easier for them to find the addict for often he requires a term in jail, perhaps a padded cell, to tame him down. To effectively reduce the evil requires cooperation and ed ucational work. If young people who are weak enough or in dulgent enough to try the use of narcotics but knew the quag mire that eventually awaits the "dope fiend" they would shun the habit as though it were the bubonic plague. The task of enlightening boys and girls on this subject falls especially upon parents. Furthermore if parents will keen their eyes open they may at times learn facts that will surprise them. At the same time their information if given to the officers may greatly assist the officials in stamping out the evil. The National Fertilizer Association is carrying on wide spread propaganda to show that the operation of the Muscle Shoals plant by Henry Ford won't greatly reduce the price of fertilizer; then why is the fertilizer association worrying about the matter? . . ; ' " Mayor Baker's announcement that he will not run for governor comes as a political surprise ; but recently there was pronoimced evidence that he considered entering the race.
