HOW FLIES KILL BABIES.
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.

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.
