THREE MILLION IS SAVED T0 STATE Health Plan Estimated on Mone| tary Basis Hartford, Dec. 10.—A health divi- dend of more than $3,000,000 was | reaped by Connecticut during 1925 | in the reduction of preventable | deaths, according to a system of computation used in the annual re- | port of Dr. Stanley H. Osborn, state commissioner of health. | Evaluating the life of an adult at $5,000, a child at $1,000 and an in- fant at $500, the report shows in terms of dollars and cents the loss sed in the state by preventable seases over a period of years. 1In this manner it is estimated that the monetary loss in the state in | 1925 was $17, as compared | with an ar rage of $20,- | 985,600 in the 915 to 1919, sive, a net s ,089,100, | During the period from 192 9 the average yearly loss was $18,143,- 000, a saving of $2,842,600 over the average in the previous five-year period. The figures do not include the to- tal loss from deaths but only the loss involved in the preventable percent- age of deaths. Thus, in the case of | whooping cough, of which it is esti- | mated that 70 per cent of the de: are preventable, 106 of the ye y average of 1562 deaths are said to | have been preventable and evaluat- | ing the life of each of the victims | at $500, the yearly loss was $53,000. | The tigures in 1923, taken in com- | parisop. with the yearly average dur- ing the period of 1915 to 1919, show | that the greatest manetary saving effected was in pulmonary tubereu- | losis. During the five-ear period the | average preventable loss was $6,- 30,000 whil in 1925 the loss was re- duced’to $3980,000, a saving of 32,- 450,000. A notablé saving ‘was also affected in the loss. from typhold fever deaths; the yearly average having formerly been $485,000 while in 1925 it was'$190,000, a saving to the of $290,000 in human liv In a few diseases the loss for the year was greater than the averages during the 1915 to 1919 period.

The decree ends the litigation and wil permit the two companies to continue their business separately. Oificers of each company said that they anticipate no financial loss will result from compltance with the de- cree, Judge Winslow held that the pur- chase of Globe Wernicke stock by |the Rand Kardex Bureau violates | the provision of the Clayton Act that {no corporation shall acquire the | capital stock of another corporation in like business “where the effect of | such acquisition may be to substan- tially lessen competition between the corporation whose stock is so ac- | quired and the corporation making the acquisition, or to restrain such commerce in any section or com- munity to tend to ereate a monopoly of any line of commerce.” Judge Winglow ordered James H.

Though he was shunned in his day and is personally remembered even now mainly for his eccentricities, his songs have a delicacy and a joy- ousness that reveal a sensitive and even a romantic soul. Sang of Marital Bliss “One of Beethoven's most charm- ing vocal pleces, ‘Vita Felice,’ is the rhapsody of a happy married man, although he was a grouchy old celi- bate. “Physically repellant, he brought to his songs all the sentiment and romance that he himself was unable to inspire. He set to music a deli- cate verse entitled ‘Flame Color,'—a poem celebrating the shade of ladies' dress goods popular in his day as it happens to be again at the present time. “The last song that Beethoven wrote was a setting of a poem called :f:dff'i‘,’,%”,righ? :?‘;‘g “The Kiss' It was written immedi- | ately after an embarassing moment | at a reception.

THAT’S the way one man who feeds his hens Ful-O-Pep Egg Mash expresses his increased production. “I gather 15 eggs for every dozen that I got before I used Ful-O-Pep,” he says. ¥ou can increase the number of eggs you are get- _tmg every day, too. Right now is the time to do it—extra eggs thean real extra cash profit at this time of year. This is the famous feed that contains Cod Liver Meal to make the other ingredients give additional value.
