In the very great improvement in summer health which the la-t 25 years has witnessed, a factor has been the disappearance of dysentery among adults. In the good old days for which vc so foolishly yearn, grown people were frequently overtaken by dysen tery. Blackberry cordial and cholera mixtures graced every home medi cine cabinet. Now, when an adult develops a diarrhea, he stops eating, perhaps takes a dose of castor oil, and, 24 hours later, is back at work, never having called on the family physician for help. Dysentery appeared from the dailv hazards of the summertime life of the adult without being noticed. Hies have been departing, too, as you noticed if you had your noticcrs on. It looks like the city man may some day go to the zoo to see flics caged as he goes there to study the Royal Bengal tiger. The country people need not buy their zoo tickets vet awhile. The summer of 1921 was a sizzler, and we had in our midst, in numbers, the ordinary tlv, called variously the housefly, the typhoid fly, and musca domestica. Drs. Voumans of Mukwonago, Wis., tell us that they had in their midst, meaning not what Col. Cham berlain of the Minneapolis Journal meant, but, meaning among the firmer folks of the country and cit izens of the town, some nearly 200 cases of old-fashioned dysentery. Water was not responsible. Drs. Youmans were convinced of that. Neither was milk nor other food. While the heat in the hot weather was the cause, it had to have some agency through which it could op erate. The germs responsible were not imported from Japan, In all prob ability they were Wiiconsin prod iicla of brand, alway prent, but more at home, and, therefore, more virulent by reason of the ex cessive heat. Hut such gerum are deficient in transportation facilities. That's where the flies came from. There were plenty of them in mid mrr, 1921, and they arc very obliging common carriers. Drs. Youmans quote Irom the Journal of Agricultural Research the statement that a spread of flies of 13 miles is recorded, and "the remarkably rapid spread of eight miles in less than one day. Not so remarkable after all. I saw some travel in a car from Chicago I to Minneapolis last week in a night, ! and the same old fly can hop on a train in Denver today and hop off I in Chicago tomorrow. Obliging and willing, the fly can carry infaction from a baby's diaper to a milk bottle; or from the ex cretions of a man sick with dysen tery in one farm house to the food of the neighbor in the next house down the road. If he does not want to fly all the way, he can hop on an automobile and ride. None of these 200 cases of folks sick with bloody flux mucus stools, fever and pains, died or were even seriously sick. The epidemic serves to recall to the elder Dr. Youmans, and to the older neighbors, the serious summer diseases of adults some 25 years ago. Perhaps it meant to them that wheji it comes to the fly question, while the trees may not be so thick, we are not yet out of the woods. It was a disturbing little epidemic for these grown people, and perhaps that was as far as it went. Kut the babies are still paying the toll of lives to summer complaints, which Levy has shown are often due to files and exposed soiled diapers. Too Young for Eggs. E. T. S. writes: "1. May a baby of 6 months, who lives in the city in winter and in the country in sum mer, eat a freshly laid egg if it has one boiled? "2. Wrhat may it eat besides? "3. Is it advisable for a baby of that age to leave the city, as it makes a change of air perhaps dan gerous?" REPLY. 1. No. Eggs are for older children. 2. Mother's milk or cow's milk heated, properly diluted, fruit juice, lumato juice and cereal. 3. Yes, if the place is atl right and especially if the water and milk art-safe. Safety in Vaccination. M. I'.. S. writes: "1 know a child in western Nebraska with smallpox, whose little sinter (vaccinated) goes to school. "His father goes about his busi ness ajtd his mother, his nure. writes letters and mails them freely." . r REPLY. This is safe enough, assuming that the little sister and the father have been successfully vaccinated. This Baby Eatt Mud. Mrs. E. L. H. writes: "I have a little niece about 18 months old. Whenever she is outdoors she eats dirt and mud by the handful. "1. Would like to know if this is due to something her system needs and does not get. "2. She is extremely fond of meat. What would be the proper diet for a child of that age?" REPLY. 1. It is. j 2. She should eat from the table. Give her a pint of good milk daily. She should have cereals, whole wheat bread, vegetables, fruit, meat s.'id an occasional egg. Youth Refuses to Tell Why He Turned on Gas "Where'd they get all the pretty girls around here.' Burton Powers, 25, in his bed at Lord Lister hospital, had just re vived from the effects of gas which police claim was self-inflicted. Powers was found unconscious in the kitchen of his bachelor apart ment in the Brown apartments, 512 North Twenty-fourth street yester day by Dorothy Brown. Four gas jets on the kitchen stove were open cd. Powers lay with his head on a rubber pillow. Powers declined to tell why he had attempted to take his own life. He objected to talking about any thing except the pretty girls about the hospital. Powers and four other young men have been keeping bachelor apart ments at the Brown for the last two months, police learned. He will recover. The NorthWestern CONFIDENCE IN AMERICA Confidence of men in American institutions has brought prosperity to the American people. The greatest institution of this country is its transportation system. The very life of this nation depends on the efficiency of its railroads. The Chicago and North Western Railway Company is proud of the fact that the efficiency and loyalty of its employes has enabled the North Western to satisfactorily discharge its transportation obligations to the public. Any disturbance to the discharge of the North Western's duty to the public would seriously retard the recovery of business from its long period of depression. The Chicago and North Western Railway Company recognized the necessity of adjusting the disturbed conditions under which we are living. It voluntarily made many reductions in freight rates and accepted the reductions ordered by the Interstate Com merce Commission. The North Western also accepted without question the increase of wages ordered by the Railroad Labor Board. We believe that North Western employes should show the same willingness as the Company to abide by the orders of the Railroad Labor Board. This adjustment is fair. After the reduction -ordered by the Labor Board, North Western employes will be paid a higher scale than labor in other industries. The reductions in rates of grain, hay and other commodities that were made effective January 1, 1922, together with the reductions effective July 1, 1922, reduces our income based on our 1921 busi nessby $13,900,000. The reduction in wages ordered by the Railroad Labor Board effective July 1, 1922, reduces our expenses based on 1921 payrolls by; $4,100,000. A strike by North Western em ployes against the decision of the Railroad Labor Board will not only destroy at once the confidence which the years have given the North Western in its employes, but it will be a strike against this country's progress toward pros perity. We believe that North Western employes will continue their faith in American institutions and let right and wisdom govern their actions. KM Price.

Aft. 1909 Harney St., Omaha Southern Pacific Company Attempting to Nullify Decision of Supreme Court of the United States Divorcing Central Pacific From Southern Pacific. On June 27, 1922, the OMAHA CHAMBER OF COM MERCE unanimously adopted the following resolution: "WHEREAS, our city and the business interests of our entire state are vitally affected by any movement or influence which would adversely affect the income of. Nebraska railroads on through or trans-continental freight shipments, and which would tend to increase or justify higher rates on shipments originating in Nebraska; and "WHEREAS, the control of the Central Pacific Railroad by the Southern Pacific Railroad has heretofore and for a number of years resulted in the diversion of Oriental and Pacific Coast ton nage destined for eastern markets, from the shorter and direct route through the Ogden gateway to the longer haul over the Southern Pacific through New Orleans and to the Atlantic Coast over that Company's lines, thus depriving the Nebraska railroads of the natural and proper income which they should receive on east and west-bound trans-continental freights; and "WHEREAS, in a recent decision, the United States Supreme Court has decided and held that the ownership and control of the Central Pacific Railroad by the Southern Pacific Company is against the public interest and contrary to the laws forbidding monopolization and stifling of competition in interstate traffic ; and "WHEREAS, it has come to the notice and attention of this body that a movement is now being organized and promoted to induce and influence the Congress of the United States to pass laws which would nullify the recent decision of our highest court, and to influence the Interstate Commerce Commission to take such action as would have the effect to also nullify the said court decision; "NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that it is the sense and desire of the Omaha Chamber of Commerce that the just and proper effect of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States forbidding unlawful and harmful combinations in interstate commerce be sustained, upheld and given effect. "AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that our Senators and Members of Congress be requested to oppose the enactment of any laws which may nullify the force and effect of the said de cision of the Supreme Court of the United States. "AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Interstate Commerce Commission be also requested to refuse its sanction or approval of any order or act which would nullify the effect of the said decision." The Business Men of Omaha approve the foregoing, and wish to call it to the attention of the Shippers, Taxpayers, Farmers and Merchants of Nebraska, all of whom are affected by this abnormal diversion of traffic.
