WE'RE COMING BACK STRONG.
Autocaater Service.
THE economic depression from
1 which the United States is just
emerging is the seventh major at
tack of "hard times" that this coun-
try has been through in less than a
hundred years. The people who are
scared almost to death for fear that
Amercia can't come back are not a
bit worse scared than were the
same type of timid-minded folk in
each of these previous panics.
But as we all know, America
came back after every one of
them, and came back stronger than
ever.
The first great financial crisis
was in 1837, when practically every
bank in the United States suspend
ed payment, half of the property of
the nation was sold in bankruptcy
proceedings and there was no work
for anybody and nobody had any
money. But we came back so
strongly that in less than twenty
years our national wealth had been
multiplied by three.
. We came back from the crisis of
1857, went through a terrific and
devastating Civil War and again
much more than doubled our na
tional wealth in the course of six
teen years. Then we had the panic
of 1873, and that was followed by
another great rewial that again
doubled our national wealth, until
the panic of 1893. We came back
from that one richer than before.
and we did the same thing after the
crises of 1907 and 1920. Everybody
knows how rapidly our waelth in
creased between 1921 and 1929, how
prosperous everybody was in those
fat years.
There is only one way to foretell
the future, and that is by studying
the past It is as certain as any
thing can be that we are coming
out of the present crisis toward a
greater and more widespread pros
perity than we have ever known.
And if we have any sense we will
take greater precautions against
another depression than we did
against this one.
TOWN AND COUNTY
GOVERNMENT.

rROFESSOR THOMAS A REED,
i director of the Department of
Political Science at the University
of Michigan, has been making
study of rural local governments in
the United States and has come to
the conclusion that there are too
many of them, that they are too
expensive and that they are out of

In the early days, when It was a
day's journey to go ten miles to the
court house and back, and a hard
ship on children to send them more
than a mile to school, the nation
needed seats e government and of
education close to or in every com
munity. Professor Reed points out
that it is no more trouble today to
gc sixty miles to the court house
than it used to be to go ten miles,
and believes that the answer is go
ing to be found in the consolidation
of counties and the elimination of
superfluous township governments,
all of which will tend to reduce lo
cal taxation.
The movement toward consolidat
ing country schools and hauling
children from a radius of ten or
fifteen miles to a good, centrally lo
cated, graded school, is growing all
over the country. The little one
room schoolhouse is a survival from
primitive times; it was picturesque
but on the whole inefficient, Frol.
Reed thinks.
We don't expect to see such radi
cal changes in our time as Prof.
Reed thinks will come eventually,
but we are inclined to agree with
him that, taking the country as a
whole, the cost to the taxpayers of
local government is out of all pro
portion to the needs, and that one
way of reducing this would be to
reduce the number of local govern
mental units and make each one
cover a larger territory.
National Body Gives $900
For O.S.C. Research Work
Recognition of research carried
on by the veterinary medicine de
partment at Oregon State college
has come in the form of a grant of
$900 by the National Research
council of Washington D. C. to be
used in continuing the studies that
have been made in the control of
salmon poisoning of dogs.
Investigations of this malady car
ried on at the college as a side is
sue by members of the staff have
resulted in a positive method of im
munizing dogs against this disease
which is caused by a parasite con
tained in fresh-water salmon and
trout in western Oregon and Wash
ington. The study failed to reveal,
however, the exact nature of the
infection carried by these parasites,
and as certain angles of the case
indicate a possible new develop

tional Research council has sup
plied funds to carry on the research

A REVIEW.
Within the last week I have had
quite a patronage in "blood pres
sure cases." In this particular in
terval, all the subjects were ladies
I could not help noticing similarity
that was almost uniform. All were
women past middle age 60 and be
yond. All were of stout build
170 pounds or over, in weight. All
except one a Jewess were farm
dwellers. All except the Jewish la
dy were of fair complexion. - Most
all were of German extraction, lib
eral feeders. All except the city
woman had reared large families
of children. All of them, without
exception, carried their high ten
sion without kidney disease.
It is very common these days to
encounter eases of high blood-pressure,
the kind that produces hem
orrhage In the brain, and, paralysis,
if not sudden life ending. Hence
the subject is of rather keen im
portance, both to patient and phy
sician. First of all in the treat
ment the cause must be sought for.
My habit is, first, to test for kid
ney disease, that oemg in many
cases co-incident with high arterial
tension. If not- "kidney trouble,"
what then? Well are the arteries
hardened? Or, Is there evidence of
a chronic liver derangement? How
about the spleen, the largest of the
ductless glands? Is there any fo
cus of infection by harmful germs?
What of the elimination by bowel
and kidney? Is the colon func
tioning? The heart? The volun
tary and sympathetic nervous sys
tems? Lastly, the blood-condition

properly feed the muscular system.
which includes the heart Itself.
Diet? ' Regulate it according to
need, not routine.
We are progressing slowly, It
may be and thoughtful patients
certainly aid the physician. That's
the "why" of this letter.

CONTAGIOUS SORES.
From State Board of Health.
What is commonly called conta
gious eruption, barber's impetigo,
football impetigo, bath-house im
petigo is scientifically known as
impetigo contagiosa. In early days
the formation of pus in the skin
was regarded as a special disease
to which the term impetigo was
applied. Impetigo contagiosa is
one of the most frequent and most
contagious skin diseases found in
young school children. It is very
common in the rural schools of this
state and the city schools are not
entirely free from this troublesome

infection. The eruption Is most
frequently seen on the face and
generally comes under observation
as a collective yellowish crust
which appears as if "stuck on.'
Careful observation will disclose
the earliest state of the eruption.
The eruption begins as a tiny blis
ter which enlarges to the size of
a split pea or larger. This blister
fills with pus, then breaks, and as
it dries forms a yellowish crust
The outer edge of the crust tends
to cup up. Dargeer blisters of im

of several smaller blisters. .The

and consequently rupture of the
thin roof of the blister; whereupon
serum freely exudes, and though
the face is the foremost site of the
eruption the infection is carried by
Infected finger nails to distant parts
of the body, and new crops of pus
tules may appear on the hands,
arms, legs or body. The only part
of the body that escapes is the
space between the shoulder blades
since it cannot be reachde with the
finger nails. On the face and
around the mouth and nose the
crust forms wreath-like figures.
The course of the disease is in
definite. A single patch will dis
appear in seven to ten days if no
new innoculation occurs, but the
disease will continue as long as in
oculation takes place. It frequent
ly continues for weeks and even
months and becomes extensive
where its character is not recog
nized and prpoer treatment Is not
instituted. It occurs most fre
quently in the poor and uncleanly
but is not confined to any class of
society. All that is required for its
production is the broken or abrad

ganisms. I tis frequently caused!
in men by the abrasions produced
by shaving. The disease is spread
from one person to another thru
direct contact by wash cloths, tow
els or anything that comes in con
tact with the sore. Epidemics of
impetigo are frequently excited
through the exchange of clothing
and the common use of towels,
swimming suits aad sweat shirts..
It is very contagious. A child who
has the sores should be excluded
from school and special care must
be exercised to prevent the spread
of the disease in the home.
Th disease is very easy to cure
and to prevent The only cases
which are troublesome after they
are recognized are those which are
produced by scratching or result
ing from some irremovable and un-
discernlble cause. The treatment
is simple and effective. The crusts
can be removed by soaking in ster
ilized olive or cotton seed oil until
they are easily detached. After
the removla of the crutss applica
tion should be made twice daily of
mild ammoniated mercury oint
ment. This will complete the heal
ing in a few days leaving only the
after-redness which in time grad
ually disappears. Absolute cleanli
ness is the great preventive and
cure. The avoidance of the com
mon use of hair brushes, combs,
caps, towels, and the application
of common sense sanitary precau
tions will practically prevent the
