At one time, I was almost convinced that the country makes the farmer but now, I feel differ ently. I !iiVf bren thinking of the farmers that live in his community, the farmers that come to this yard to buy their building materials, and I have decided that the farmer makes the country. You have made two blades grow where one for merly grew. ' That is why I say the farmers of this community have made it what it is. Some of you were pioneers the days were long er then for there were fewer comforts there were fewer people on the roads. First, you built a small home, barn or stock shed. Perhaps, you would not call it home today, but it was a protection to your loved ones. And, that is what we call home. Mother Nature has done her share, for we have had rain, sun and wind. But, without your labor, the weeds would overrun the best of farm land. You have taken a lot from the soil this year a good crop and at top prices. Let this community of farmers prove beyond a doubt that it Is the farmer that makes the country. You can do tiiis by building your wife a ne' home. She has eari.ed it a home with conveniences in the kitchen a home that will save steps a home that 's warm in Winler and cool in Summer a home tl;.t will be economical to build and uconomical in ;i-e arrao;?' mem of space.

HEALTH SERVICE ! ISSUES WARNING ! Increase in All Respiratory Dis eases After the Influenza Epidemic Probable. Influenza Expected to Lurk for Months. How to Gjard Against Pneumonia. Common Colt Highly Catching Im. portance of Suitable Clothing Could Save 100,000 Lives. Wnshlngton, D. C With the subsid ence of the epidemic of Inllueiizu the attention of health officers is directed to pneumonia, bronchitis and other diseases of the respiratory system w hich regularly cause a large number of deaths, especially during the winter season. According to Itupert Blue, Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service, these diseases will he especially prevalent this win ter unless the people are particularly careful to obey health instructions. "The present epidemic," said Sur geon General Blue, "has taught by bit ter experience how readily a condition beginning apparently as a slight cold may go on to pneumonia uml death. Although the worst of the epidemic it over, there will continue to be a large number of scattered .cases, many of them mild and unrecognized, which will be danger spots to be guarded against." The-Surgeon General likened the present situation to that after n great Are, saying, "No fire chief who understands his business stops playing the hose on the charred debris ns soon iTsTtTfe naiiies ann"YlsTTile Tire . appeared. On the contrary, 1 tun tlnues the water for hours and even days, for he knows that there Is dnn ger of the fire rekindling from smol dering embers." "Then you fear another outbreak of Influenza?" he was asked. "Not neces sarily another Inrge epidemic," said the Surgeon General, "but unless the people learn to realize the seriousness of the danger they will be compelled to pny a heavy death toll from pneumo nia and other respiratory diseases. I Common Colds Highly Catching. I "It is encouraging to observe that people are beginning to learn that or dinary coughs and colds are highly catching and are spread from person to person by means of droplets of germ lnden mucus. Such droplets are sprayed Into the air when careless or 'gnorant people cough or sneeze with out covering their mouth and nose. It la also good to know that people have learned something about the value of fiesh air. In summer, when people are largely out of doors, the respira tory disenses (coughs, colds, pneumo nia,, etc.) are Infrequent; In the fall, as people begin to remain Indoors, the respiratory diseases Increuse: In the winter, when people are prone to stay In litully ventilated, overheated rooms, the respiratory diseases become very prevalent. Suitable Clothing Important. "Still another factor In the produc tion of colds, pneumonia and other re spiratory diseases Is carelessness or Ig norance of the people regarding sult ublu clothing during the seasons when the weal her suddenly '.liiinges, sitting In warm rooms too heavily dressed or, what Is even more common, especially nine');' women, dressing so liuhll.v that windows re kept closed In ordt-r to be comfortably warm. This is a very in jurious practice. Could Save 100,000 Lives. "I believe we could easily save one hundred thousand lives annually in the United States If all the people would adopt the system of fresh air living followed, for example, in tuber culosis sanatoria. There Is nothing mysterious about It no specific medi cine, no vaccine. The important thing is right living, good food and plenty of fresh air. m MP- ! Droplet Infection Explained in Pictures. t "The Bureau of Public Health, Treasury Department, has Just Issued a striking poster drawn by Berryman, the well-known Washington cartoonist. The poster exemplifies the modern i method of health education. A few years ago, tinder similar circumstances, ! the health authorities would have Is j sued an olllcial dry hut scientifically ! accurate bulletin teaching the role of droplet Infection In the spread of re ; spiratory diseases. The only ones who ; would have underslood the bulletin would have been those who already knew all about the subject. The man in the street, the plain citizen and the muny millions who toll for their living would have had no time and no desire to wade through the technical phrase m to; ology."
