You know the charge is often made that farmers think more of 'their cattle than they think of people. While I don't think this, is at all true, it is up to us to show by acts that it is not true. There is great, interest in tuber culosis among cattle, and properly so, but there should be even greater interest in tuberculosis among people The farmers of the county should help in the fight against the white plague, since the statistics show that the farmers suffer almost as much 'from this disease as the people in the cities, in spite of the natural ad vantages of pure air and out-of-door life What can the farmers do? They can do this as a beginning: They can help along the big Christmas Red Ci 'Oss Seal Sale that is being put on through Michigan by the Mich igan Anti- Tuberculosis Association. The State Association is trying to sell 15,000,000 one cent seals, that are to be used on the reverse side of holiday letters during December. In this way the State Association is trying to collect 15,000,000 pennies with which to flght Juberculosis in all the 83 counties of the State during 1920, Van Buren County included. If the sale is to be a success, every person will have to do his share. The State Association has it figured out that it will mean buying five Christmas Seals for every man, woman and child in the state. But since there are a lot of babies and indigent persons who can't buy, it is perhaps better to figure on each per son buying ten or fifteen cents worth or as much as possible to make up for those who can't buy. Have you got fifteen cents worth of interest in fighting tuberculosis here and throughout Michigan? If so, help the Seal Sale along. It will be held from December 1st, to De cember 10th.
