" The Yard of Best Quality ” That Is One of the Objects of Compul sory Health Insurance. Compulsory health insurance Is now being talked of as another step In com munity welfare, the course being espe cially recommended in welfare work among wage earners. Investigation has shown that a large proportion of sickness is preventable, but most persons, small wage earners or not, are likely to neglect their ail ments until prevention Is no longer possible and serious illness must be treated. Even then the doctor's serv ices are avoided as much as possible because of the cost, and the victim of disease goes back to his work before he Is fit. Under the compulsory Insurance sys tem It Is the idea that every worker shall be visited at stated Intervals by a physician whether he Is ill or not; the slightest illness brings a call from the doctor, whose business is to keep him well if possible. In many cases he will succeed, with the result of a great saving of time and wages to the worker. The total of such savings In the In dustrial centers will run Into the mil lions nnd will proportionately lessen the demands on charitable funds.—In dianapolis Star. The Wild Pigeon Mystery.

M. D. O’CONNELL HERMISTON B 9 Bi B) S THE EMERGENCY SHELF. Herald Issued Each Saturday by WE WILL HAVE A OREGON That the wild pigeon, once so com mon in the Uniteti States, has become extinct is one of the strangest myste ries in American natural history. It is a puzzle which has baffled scientists and which probably never will be solved. Half a century ago wild pigeons were abundant in Pennsylvania, Oblo, Indi ana, Kentucky and all the states of the middle west. In their migrations they traveled in flocks numbering tens of thousands, and it sometimes took a sin gle flock the better part of an hour to pass a given point. Vast numbers of the pigeons were killed every year by gunners, but many Investigators bold that the complete disappearance of the species must have been due in part at least to other causes. No other bird was ever so numerous in this country as the pigeon. Grayfish as a Food. It used to be called the dogfish and was looked upon as a worthless nui- sanee. Now, through the efforts of Uncle Sam's bureau of fisheries, it is called the grayfish and is in great de mand as a valuable food product. The grayfish contains a little less protein and a little more fat than the salmon, but In digestibility, richness and whole- someness it equals, if it does not excel, many of our popular fish foods. One Interesting result of the analysis thus far made by the government is that the grayfish is entirely free from uric acid, which Is not true of meats, poul try or other fishes. H. M. STRAW, MGR.
