POSTPONE ACTION ON PSYCHOPATHIC WARD Supervisors Decide It Is Best To Walt Awhile. The decision to build a modern psychopathic ward at the County hospital for the confinement and treatment of insane cases in Orange county was again postponed by the board of supervisors. Dr. H. E. Zaiser, head of the County hospital, testified as to the needs of the hospital in this respect. His proposal was to build a separate, two-story building, of such nature that escape from it would be impossible, one story to be used for men, and the other for women. The building would be equipped with the very latest European therapeutic equipment for the giving of treatment by means of baths of various temperatures, or of various mineral qualities. This method, said Dr. Zaiser, represents the only permanent way to bring relief and cure in insane cases, and offers a means of quieting violent cases by means of baths instead of having to use hypodermic injections of opiates, as is at present done in order to relieve patients and to keep them from disturbing the other patients in the hospital. The new building would have sufficient room to handle twelve cases, thus providing for the future, and not making it necessary for the supervisors to have to tear down the building within a few years in case the county's population increases, as there is every reason to believe it will. The new building would have a heavy screened porch for the less violent be based intelligent reasoning as to what reforms or changes may be needed in the system of marketing. Only two of the many farm products have been selected for study at this time—milk and potatoes. Dr. Lewis M. Haney, who is in immediate charge of the work, is basing his results on actual cost figures connected with the handling of potatoes and milk from the producer straight through to the ultimate consumer: Figures capable of reconciliation with a profit-and-loss statement of the business concerns from which they are obtained. Rather than put out anything short of absolutely accurate estimates, the bureau will limit the number of cases reported on. "The cooperation we are receiving from the dealers is very gratifying, and is, indeed, a paramount feature of our work," says George Livingston; Chief of the Bureau of Markets. "Without this splendid cooperation our investigations would be much more difficult to conduct." "The Cost of Marketing Division of the bureau began active work last June and already has gathered reports covering a considerable number of potato dealers. The milk investigation is likewise proceeding with satisfactory speed. I am certain that the Cost of Marketing Division will, when its work is completed, have information of real value to give to the public. Certainly no investigation could be conducted which is of greater concern to everyone—producer dealer, and consumer. There is no subject upon which the public more greatly desires enlightment or is more richly entitled to it." While securing cost figures the bureau is also ascertaining the prices paid for the chief kinds of materials result, is endearing tising and by making credit and price tecme. This disturb causes loss to those sound basis. The Bureau of that an accurate cost of marketing more reasonable co industry and will see of both the producers.

Travelers pronounce some of th they see on cars alined to believe th The appropriate towns are often as car names and some are apparently as me as difficult to pronow them, however, th Many towns that lie and partly, in another State line, have finetinctive names that parts of the names appear on maps issu States Geological S department of the Int Arizmo, Arizona-N Calada, California Calexico, California (In the Mexican the order is reverse Mexicall.) Calneva, California Calyada, California The new building would have sufficient room to handle twelve cases, thus providing for the future, and not making it necessary for the supervisors to have to tear down the building within a few years in case the county's population increases, as there is every reason to believe it will. The new building would have a heavy screened porch for the less violent cases, in which they might get exercise and fresh air. Dr. Zaiser recently went to Norwalk to look over conditions there. He reported them as being not very satisfactory. Regarding the confining of jail cases in case of sickness in the new building, Dr. Zaiser said it is his impression that the law forbids the confining of such cases with the insane cases, but that this difficulty could be got around by having a cell or two blocked off separately from the rest of the ward, thus separating the cases with in the meaning of the law, and not permitting association of the two classes of prisoners. Dr. Zaiser said that it is neither fair nor right to ask the people of Orange county whose mothers or fathers or other relatives become deranged through no fault of their own, and need to be confined, to be put into the county jail, or confined with criminal cases at the hospital. Neither is it right he said, to those patients who are taken to the county hospital for other sickness or injuries to be disturbed and their nerves shattered by the noise made by insane patients who are now confined in the same building. It was estimated that the new building would cost between $15,000 and $20,000. The supervisors decided to delay the consideration for five or six months at least. The matter has been put off for the past two years. The supervisors do not want to spend the money just at present, and feel that by building the structure they might be able to keep within the tax rate appropriation. Dr. Zaiser testified that he could get along in a semi-satisfactory manner with the present accommodations temporarily, but that eventually a building would have to, and should be built. Among the comments made by the various supervisors were: "I don't think it is time to build a building like that." "We can get along temporarily with the Cost of Marketing Division will, when its work is completed, have information of real value to give to the public. Certainly no investigation could be conducted which is of greater concern to everyone—producer, dealer, and consumer. There is no subject upon which the public more greatly desires enlightment or is more richly entitled to it." While securing cost figures the bureau is also ascertaining the prices paid for the chief kinds of materials and supplies used in the marketing system for potatoes and milk, as well as complete data concerning the wages paid to all those engaged in the work of distribution. One of the principal reasons that milk was chosen as one of the first commodities to receive attention is that it is practically the only farm product which has but one step from producer to consumer. Another is the widespread agitation in nearly all sections of the country concerning the prices of this important article of food. Moreover, the milk trade in its broadest aspect includes business methods ranging all the way from simple trading to highly specialized manufacturing. Potatoes were chosen because no other farm product is regarded as a more staple food, and because nearly every person in the land eats potatoes once, twice, or even three times a day. In addition to this the marketing of potatoes involves many steps. Perhaps few farm raised commodities are handled as often before reaching the consumer. The work on potato marketing costs is being actively conducted at Boston and Chicago. Bureau representatives at Boston will cover the Maine crop and those at Chicago will study the output of Wisconsin and Michigan. A further effort will be made to secure accurate data on the costs of marketing Colorado and Idaho potatoes through Kansas City dealers. Among other items connected with the investigational work on potatoes especial attention is being paid to "shrinkage" the object being to secure accurate data which will enable the bureau to say in dollars and cents just what this item amounts to. Several cases have been reported in which the "shrinkage" on a car of bulk potatoes runs as high as 9 per cent. The usual estimate by those in the trade, however, is that 3 per cent "shrinkage" is normal. This amounts to about 1,200 pounds per carload. The "shrinkage" is less when potatoes are sacked, as plifering and rough handling are... ing the structure they might be able to keep within the tax rate appropriation. Dr. Zaiser testified that he could get along in a semi-satisfactory manner with the present accommodations temporarily, but that eventually a building would have to, and should be built. Among the comments made by the various supervisors were: "I dont think it is time to build a building like that." "We can get along temporarily with what we have, except for criticism." "I should think it would be cheaper just to hire a guard to watch the insane cases who might escape, or prisoners sent there who might pick the locks, as the last one did." "In five or six months we should be in better shape to consider the erection of such a building." "We might build a small one-story building with the idea of adding to it later." BASIS FOR IMPROVING PRODUCE MARKETING Accurate Information Gathered on Costs of Marketing Milk and Potatoes. For the first time in this country, so far as is known, a comprehensive effort is being made to secure detailed and accurate information on the costs of marketing. Hitherto investigations of this nature have either been very limited in scope or have contained such a large element of estimate as to make the figures secured practically valueless. But the Bureau of Markets, United States Department of Agriculture, in undertaking an investigation into the costs of marketing farm products, has approached the subject in a manner calculated to bring forth complete and authentic information upon which can "shrinkage" the object being to secure accurate data which will enable the bureau to say in dollars and cents just what this item amounts to. Several cases have been reported in which the "shrinkage" on a car of bulk potatoes runs as high as 9 per cent. The usual estimate by those in the trade, however, is that 3 per cent "shrinkage" is normal. This amounts to about 1,200 pounds per carload. The "shrinkage" is less when potatoes are sacked, as plifering and rough handling are by this means reduced to a minimum. Another item of importance in potato shipments is that of foreign matter, principally dirt. Complaints have been received from the Chicago territory concerning the large amount of dirt found, one dealer claiming that each sack of potatoes from certain producing centers has contained from 10 to 15 pounds of soil. In carrying out the investigation into milk marketing costs, a special intensive study is being made of the milk situation at Columbus, Ohio, where the milk dealers claim to be crushed between high prices charged by producers and low prices paid by consumers. In addition, a questionnaire has been sent out to a large number of dealers scattered over the country. It is planned, also, to make intensive studies in certain representative cities similar to the study now being made at Columbus. From the information gathered thus far it is apparent that milk dealers in many communities are injuriously affected by two kinds of uneconomic competition. On the one hand, there are many small one-wagon dealers who do not keep any records of their costs and who are satisfied if they make wages for themselves. On the other hand, there frequently will be in a community a large concern which has a capacity in excess of the business it is doing and which, as a re- ular tuberculin test Santa .

This disturbs conditions and causes loss to those dealing on a sound basis. The Bureau of Markets believes that an accurate presentation of the cost of marketing milk will make for more reasonable competition in the industry and will set at rest the fears of both the producers and the consumers. INTERSTATE TOWNS There is an old story that many of the names of towns, sleeping cars, etc., were devised by a maniac who had a passion for writing letters on the walls of his cell in meaningless combinations. Travelers who attempt to pronounce some of the difficult names they see on cars are very much inclined to believe this story. The appropriate names for new towns are often as hard to select as car names and some of those selected are apparently as meaningless and are as difficult to pronounce. For many of them, however, there is a reason. Many towns that lie partly in one State and partly in another, or close to the State line, have fine sounding and distinctive names that are made up of parts of the names of this kind that appear on maps issued by the United States Geological Survey of the Department of the Interior.

BRITAIN TO WAR ON U.S.SAYS JAP Declaring that Japanese should watch the trend of affairs and not become a cat's paw for anybody," Hanzan Ishikawa, editor of "Man Choho," a daily newspaper of Japan, told a Japanese audience assembled in Lodi that the Orientals should not talk carlessly of a war with America, as "England and America are in fierce disputes" and "if we keep quiet, an Anglo-American war will break out." The Japanese lecturer said Japan is not prepared to war with America and intimated that his people should maintain a pacific attitude until the white race assisted in its own destruction. He said in part: "Some of the people, both in Japan and America, have the idea that military force should be used to reinforce our contentions (against injustice to Japanese in California, as exemplified by the alien land law initiative measure.)" "Japanese should not talk carlessly of a Japanese-American war. Today England and America are engaged in fierce disputes. If we keep quiet an Anglo-American war will break out. But Englishmen are crafty. The English really used Japan to fight Russia. There are indications that they are now attempting to use Japan to fight America. “If war between Japan and America should break out in the Pacific, which ever might win, England would rejoice. Therefore, Japan should watch the ‘trend of the world’ and not become a cat’s paw for anybody. “The decadence of prosperity of the Japanese in California,” continued Isnikawa, “will affect the future of the Japanese people throughout the world.” “Worldwide opposition to the Japanese people is already an indisputable cause.” CHRISTIAN SCIENCE First Church of Christ, Scientist, corner of Philadelphia and Chartres streets.

G. Whitehead, Vetinerary Inspector, Division of Animal Industry, has recently sent us this very important report and since it contains so much food for thought and action, we deem it well worth passing along. While recently conducting the regular tuberculin tests in and around Santa Doctor Whitehead condemned two cows which had reacted to the test. When he informed the owner of the result of his finding, she began to cry. Thinking that her cause for grief was the loss of the two beasts he tried to console her with the statement that the animals were diseased and she ought to be glad to know it. Whereupon, she promptly replied: "That isn't what I am crying for. I have a baby nine months old and three NOTICE TO CREDITORS Estate of Martin Rasmussen deceased.

It developed that neither parent is tubercular, nor have they ever had tuberculosis in either of their respective families; and neither has the baby ever been away from home. The above case is only one of many instances which occur daily through the lack of proper forethought. The time honored adage "And all for the want of a horseshoe nail" might well be made to read, "And all for the lack of a tuberculin test." All systems of education, all instructions that are issued, and all information with reference to this Great White Plague seem not to be seriously heeded by many until a loved one is stricken or taken. And then it is too late to remedy the cause. The remedy for the cause lies primarily in the eradication of tuberculosis. This is accomplished by the various preventive measures; one of which is the tuberculin test. If upon application of the test tuberculosis animals are found, they can be destroyed or properly disposed of, buildings and premises disinfected, and such other measures instituted as will safeguard health and life.
