ILLNESS.
" 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

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.
