Aa the nation obaervea Ita first
peace time Armistice Day in four
years, another battle continues
to kill at the rate of one person
every nine minutes compared
with the death of one American
every seven and a half minutes
during the past war.
Enemy* guns cost the lives of
259,000 Americans in Wor’.d War
II, while during the same period
nearly 206,000 Americans died
as the result of this age-old ene-
my—^tuberculosis. The guns are
silent now, but tuberculosis Is
still killing.
As yet It Is too early to pre
dict what effect World War II
will have on the incidence of
this disease, althugh past wars
have brought increases in tuber
culosis; and even now Europe
and Asia report a sharp upward
trend of the malady.
At the present the death rate
in this country has declined as a
whole, but tuberculosis is a long
term disease, and is seldom sus
pected in its early stages.
Proper medical care has forced
the tuberculosis death rate from
first to seventh place as a cause of
death of the population as a
whole, yet during last year tu
berculosis alone killed approxi
mately 10.000 more -\mericans
than W'ere killed in action or died
of wounds received in action
during the first World War.
The man-made battle has been
won. but within the borders of
tl’.is victorious nation there re
mains an enemy whose very pres
ence is a challenge to .Americans
every where to fight until. the
enemy of tuberculosis is defeated
and l>anished forever.

Lime has another booster in
Mr. Arthur McEwen, of the Fer
guson community. Ho says lime
doubled the yield of lespedeza
for him and helped boost other
crop yields.
Mr. Tom W. Ferguson, also of
the Ferguson community, is a
great believer in organic materi
als for crop and pasture land im

to burn a brush , pile. When he
cuts elders along the banks of a
branch he lets them lie end de

When a hare spot needs healing

On organic materials; he feeds
his beet cattle on these spots dur

fodder and hay. This, he says,
does the trick.
