It 1slcaught from one who is around you with it. ’l‘qbe';culo_ms is different from diphtheria or la grippe, however, in that it does not come on suddenly as those diseases do, but inste ad takes weeks, months or even years to develop. . . For everyone who wishes to be eximined for tubercu!osxs, the Minnesota Public Health association and the state advisory commission on tuberculosis have _arranged for tuberculosis clinics to be held by the County Public Health assacmtlons.l Since tuberculosis is catching, everyone who has been near to, the disease in any way is especially urged to be gxammed. at these clinics. Where there has been tuberculosis in a family, all members should be examined. Thus the early stages may be discovered -and treatment begun before it is too late. Finding the cases is the first step in_the cqntrol of ’cubercu-', losis. The clinics reveal very surprising things very oiten.; People who:do not imagine they have a:nythmg serious en.ou.gh: to warrant going to a physician, drop in to a c]}mc for curmsptyl or just to get examined “for fun”; and the serious pams:-takmg specialist going over them carefully sometimes finds quite def- inite early beginnings of the disease; occasionaliy, quite ad-| vanced trouble. i | It is hoped that many will avail themselves of the oppor-| tunity to be examined. The clinic for Bemidji is to be held to- morrow in the offices of Drs. Borreson and Johnson. AT i, i SUGAR 8 The annual report of the American Sugar Refining com-| pany shows in tonnage the smallest business in the history of the company. In dollars and cents, however, 1920 business was $50,000,000 over 1919. On a total business of $350,000,000 the operating profit was shown to be $1,800,000 which was| $8,480,000 less than in 1919. \ The report states that the consumption per capita over, the whole United States was 111 pounds. Sugar poured into the| United States from nearly fifty countries, the magnet drawing| it to the United States being high prices. On July 1, 1920, the price in the country was the highest! in the world, and on December 31, 1920, it was practically th lawest in the world. Prices during the year ranged from 43| to 241% cents for raw sugar and from 7% to 2715 cents for refined sugar, a difference of about 20 cents per pound. i According to United States customs department, the in- voice value of sugar receipts was $1,294,632,866 in 1920, as| against $522,259,538 in 1919. The total cost to the American' people of all sugar consumed in 1920 exceeded a billion and a ! half dollars. | | Joy.

The road was certainly a poor one.
