II SPANISH INFLUENZA, HI PANDEMIC. W m The question. "How does It happen Kjjlll than the present epidemic of Spanish Bfijluj influenza is so fatal?" Is' uppermost In H Iffi the minds of the people. A complete Ell lur tra satisfactory answer cannot be Bui U vouchsafed, as yet, but perhaps a par- HhzIo 1 explanation Is forthcoming. Hill e t8rm "Influenza" Is Italian in origin and literally translated means Ullll ""influence." What influences govern HPilu tQ0 disease arc not def1nitely I! Ill 111 known. KljjlP The term "la grippe" was intro- ili I duced by the French in 1712 and be- H III came accepted as popular name of the Ik j I disease. Rmfj The first epidemic of la grippe ap- E H peared in 1647. It swept not only this HliH country but the West Indies, reaping RjjJB a loll of about 6000 deaths. Four great Kjljl pandemics of influenza occurred dur- Ulllll mg the last century, 1830-1S33, 1836- il 1S37, 1847-1848 and 1SS9-1890. This Hjj! 1 last world-wide outbreak, visited every Hilll part of the known world. jnlljP "The course of the disease is fairly Bjljy constant," says Dr. Wade W. Oliver, of the Long Island hospital, at Brook- lyn, in the Scientific American. "The incubation period, that is the time , elapsing between the entrance of the !; causative germB into the body and the appearance of symptoms of dis- : ease, is short, probably one to two i days. The onset Is sudden, the pa- 1 tlent not infrequently showing marked i prostration within a few hours. There ( may be a1 history of a slight sore i throat or a feeling of being "out of sorts" for a few days previous, but many patpients give no such historj'i i passing from an apparently well con- i dition to a state of moBt profound pros- ! tration within two to four hours. Head- acho and pains in the back, limbs and 1 Joints are initial symptoms. Along ! with this go a feeling of chilliness, fever varying from 101 degrees F. to 1 104 degrees F., and prostration. This : prostration is one of the characteris- I tics of tho disease and is probably due to a rapid overwhelming of the body i by poisons (toxins), produced by the i rapidly multiplying germs. In a typi- i cal case, the reddened throat, sneez ing and cough 'develop about three days after the onset of the disease. It i is during this period of cough and sneezing that the disease probably is most contagious. If no complications develop the attack gradually subsides and within a week the patient begins to return to normal, although his cough frequently persists and he still j feels "weak." Another week of rest is advisable before the patient returns ' to his regular Avork." Dr. Oliver adds that the treatment ! is along these broad lines: 1. Proven- . tion to be attained by avoiding crowds, and also individuals affected with Influenza. 2. Rest go to bed im mediately and call a doctor. .

I I J i 7012 ECCleS Bldg ?hne 729 J I The deaths resulting from the pres nt epidemic have been largely duo to complications, among which pneumo nia has been the most common. I The Influenza bacclllus, a tiny germ averaging about 1-25,000 inch In length, discovered in 1S92 by Pfoiffer, gains entrance to the throat of healthy indi viduals most often through tho fine droplets expelled by an influenza- pa tient during the act of sneezing, cough ing or loud talking. oo WRITE OFTEN TO THE SOLDIERS. General Pershing asked that rela tvos of tho men at tho front should vrlle to the boys "over there" and oft c . to keep up their spirits. Now that 1 p war is over the boys' thoughts are 1 rning to homo. They will, if they do mt receive letters regularly, become jaore anxious and restless than ever. One reads in the newspapers the ad v ce of all welfare workers back from 1 e front to the friends of soldiers that I icy write to the boys. Continually cno hears and reads, "Why don't the p?ople at home write more frequently; f.ie boys need the loiters." But what is the use of writing since most letters received here say, "I have not heard from you yel" or "I havo not heard from you in a very long time." I Tho army says the facilities for handling the mail over there Is very much improved and tho boys can got letters from homo In good time. oo KEEP UP WORK FOR ; THE BOYS. Ogden and the stato is lagging In t ;eir donations toward the United War .Work campaign fund, according to re ports received today. The people, who eelobrated the end ing of tho war on Monday, have failed to show their deep appreciation to the boys by contributing a small amount to the. fund which propare's for tho sol diers' comfort and entertainment and , makes things seem like home. Nearly every man, woman and child can give something to the fund, be it . a penny or a thousand dollars. Tho : money must be received not later than Saturday night. The allotment for this district, composed of Ogdon city and Weber county, Is about forty-nine thou sand dollars. Today's dispatches Indicate that the boys will not bo home for a long time yet. They will be used In many ways to police the war-torn countries and do many acts of reconstruction. While they are "over there" we are respon sible for their comfort If you have not subscribed, do so today. nn . . PREVENT SUGAR FAMINE. The news bureau of the Manufac turer at San Francisco, has issued the' following: The war has demonstrated one fact clearly home grown sugar Is feeding the nation. Thirty-five states com prising four-fifths of total area of the United States must depend on homo grown sugar until the end of the year and a large portion of this area for a much longer period. The beet sugar output comes Just at the season when output from other sources is exhausted. If it were not for American beet sugar supplying the market today, an absolute sugar famine would prevail. And yet a year ago there were agi tators among tho farmers saying don't raise sugar beets, ostensibly to force Ja higher price. But sugar beets have saved the day and next year the acreage should be greatly increased to. strengthen the in dustry to meet the after-war compe tition. Reports from different sections of tho west Indicate a favorable reaction towards sugar beet growing as experi ence of many farmers this year with wheat, beau and potato growing did not come up to expectations. uu COTTON CONSUMED DURING OCTOBER WASHINGTON, Nov. 14. Cotton consumed during October amounted to 440.8S3 running bales of lint and 97, 927 bales of linters, the census bureau today announced. Consumption in October last year was 584.946 bales of lint and 100,155 bales of linters.

Problems connected with tho policing and provisioning of Russia and the central powers hinge prlmarilv upon tho immediate disarmament of tho German fleet, the Russian warships held by the Germans and thoso under control of the Ultranlan government In ihc Black sea. Warships which are hold by tho Bolshevlki in tho Finnish gulf must also bo put out of commis sion. Without freedom of movement in the Black and Baltic seas, the entente powers and tho United States will havo great difficulty In affording eco nomic relief to central Europe, as well as Scandinavia. Consequently the at titude of the German navy toward the armlstico terms Is watched with eag ornoss by entente offlcails who are anxious to prevent starvation among the bolligeront and to restore normal, social, and economic conditions among the suffering millions. Speedy action is necessary for the relief of regions adjpacont to tho Bal tic sea, as many of its ports will be ice-bound within two months. The United States and tho entente powers havo shown no disposition to deal with tho Bolshevist government. While Ruslsa remains in tho control of the soviet, therefore, there seems to be little hopo of feeding Moscow, Potro grad and other large cities there. If the Russian Bolshevist movement against Finland should bo successful, Finland would also be placed tempo rarily beyond relief. Food conditions are more favorable In Ukraine and In tho Caucasus regions, where there is much grain stored, and which the peas ants would probably sell. Georgia and Armenia can bo fed with comparative oaso when the allies are freo to navigate tho Black sea, Germany is supposed to havo about 250,000 troops in Ukraine and In the Russian Baltic provinces, as well as 50.000 in Finland. Theso troops will remain until the entente requests their withdrawal. Adequate provisioning of them Js of prlmo lmportanco to pre vent their alliance with Russian Bolshevists. oo SUPERVISION W STEEUNDUSTRY Want Government to Take Over Management of Steel in U. S. WASHINGTON. Nov. 13. Continu ation of government supervision of tho steel Industry during the period of readjustment to peace conditions was recommended today by the steoj com mittee of tho American Iron and Steel Institute at its first meeting with tho war Industries board since tho sign ing of the armistice. Optimism over the industrial and labor outlook, as affecting the steel industry, during the transition from war to peace marked the conference. The belief was exprssed that there should bo no abrupt alteration of price or wage levels. The chiof purpose 6f the meeting, it was announced, was to preserve "industrial stability." and tho discus sion covered general trade conditions, national and international. After tho conference officials in ex plaining tho steel committee's recom mendation for continued supervision by the war industries board, said that if price control were abandoned and the price of steel decreased those who stocked up with raw and semi -finish-, ed materials at tho fixed price could not compete with those who could go Into tho market with lowor prices pre vailing. On 4hc other hand if tho prlco should increase manufacturers with stocks on hand would have an advantage. Government supervision and price control, it was explained, will prevent any such conditions and stabilize the industry until it is on a peace basis. This formal joint staloment was Is sued by Chairman Baruch of tho war Industries board and Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the steel committee, aft er the meeting: "The discussion followed genoral lines regarding trado conditions both of national and international nature and with tho main purpose of preserv ing -industrial stability. "The iron and steel institute com , mittce, in tho courso of its sugges lions, made emphasis upon tho point that a continuation of governmental supervision of industry for tho prcs ont was highly desirable. It was agreed that many changes in operat ing conditions of tho steel mills will be necessary in tho transition from war to a peace basis. Some cancel lations and adjustments in war con tracts will follow, but owing to the re moval of many restrictions imposed on non-war industries and the immccN iato demands of such industries and a probably resumption of federal stato and municipal improvements which had been temporarily suspended and the demands from abroad for foreign construction which aro already tak ing definite shape, it Is believed that tho transition can be accomplished In an orderly and systomatlc way. "Tho discussion was entirely In formal and was characterized chiefly by a spirit of co-oporatlon between the board and the industry that was as strong as that which existed dur ing tho war pressure, "Further information is to bo gath ered and collated for the use of tho war industries board for its further conferences with this and other industries." oo CO-OPERATIVE EFFORTS SAVE CROPS IN CARBON COUNTY Thirteon hundred acres of farm land In Carbon County that would otherwise have been unproductive, have yielded crops this fall due to the co-operative efforts of tho Coun- i ty Farm Bureau.
