SAYS STEAMSHIPS
NEEDED FOR SOUTH
AMERICAN TRADE
NEW YORK, June 28.—Former Sen
ator Burton, who hus Just returned
from South America where he has been
making an extensive study of trade
conditions, speaks glowingly of the
possibilities offered to the United
States through the suspension of com
merce with Europe owing to the war.
Throughout the entire South American
continent, the ex-senator found that
there wns an ever Increasing demand
for an immense number of articles
which are manufactured in tlie United
States but which have heretofore been
purchased entirely from Germany. Bur
ton states, however, that America will
have but little opportunity to annex
this immense trade without a last in
crease in the presnt shipping facilities
of the nation a.-; the volume of the de
mand is smell that the t’nited States
cannot hope to suppli more than a
portion with the present small fleet of
commerce carriers. "We have the op
portunity to eaptuio all of this great
trade," says l’.urton, “but We have im
perative need for fast lines of cargo
steamers to liuenos Ayres and Rio de
Janerio and other southern ports."

Thomas A. Edison once made .he
famous remark ttwit (he American race
•'Rig their graves with their teeth.”
Yet in spite of the fact that the Wiz
aid of Menlo Park, who is himself in
perfect health at (he age of 7”, and
is an abstainer from most of the diets
of sweets and indigestible pastries
that Americans are fond of, over 1,700
pies of the standard bakery variety
are sold everj day at the East Orange, i
. N. J., plant of the Edison Storage Rat-1
tery and Phonograph Company, where
4,000 men are employed. The Edison
company, however, are the first Amer
ican empleyers of large numbers of
help to take an interest in ttie welfare
of their employes from a dletic stand
point and on Monday, May 10, tired the
first shot in Hie health efficiency war,
when Roy Real, F. R. S. of New Yorlt
city, delivered the first of a series of
lectures, which he is now giving before
the employes of the large indtiM 'Ini
plants throughout the Fnited States on
“Health Efficiency.”
In a short half hour Prof. Real took
the 4,000 Edison employes through the
errors of diet, the proper balancing
of foods, cleanliness, personal hygiene,
bathing both externally and internally,
nnd warned them against too much
eating, improper food, over rich foods
and an excess of meat.
He pointed out the many tilings in
the dally conduct of their lives which
needed prompt attention. He put espe
cial emphasis on the fact that the av
erage American eats to haphazardly
and laid stress on the extreme Import
ance of selecting a proper diet as re
gards the time of the year and the
age and occupation of the person. He
called attention to the great amount
of space given to food and health
topics by magazines and daily papers,
and the work that the large life in
surance companies are doing for health
conservation; that foods have a certain
therapeutic value in specific diseases;
that nuts are a substitute for meat;
wh> fruits can be so combined with
cereals as to properly balance the diet
so that they would not be overfed on
proteids and underfed on carbohy
drates,, fats and mineral salts; that
milk should be served on the table
three times a day and unpasturized
because the beat brings about a chem
ical change that destroys the food
value, that it is necessary to keep tin*
pores of thi. skin open to relieve the
kidney of n large amount of their
work. thereby compelling frequent
bathing.
Billions Spent on Patent Medicines.
United States government statislies
for 1013 show that $500,000,000 were
spent in one year for patent medicines
in the United States; $750,000,000 on
physicians and nurses; that of all the
children born Into the world 60 per
cent die before they are one year old
and that rad less than one-half of all
the children born into the world live
to be 16 years of age.
Keen the animals live longer than
man, the average animal living five
times the space of time It takes him to
arrive to full growth. The average life
span of the human being in the United
States is 44 years or just twice the
number of years it takes him to arrive
to an age of usefulness, or one third
less than that of the horse.
Most ail this can lie laid at he door
of improper diet, over feeding, and er
rors of hygiene. Kidney, liver and
heart diseases in the United States
have doubled in the last 30 years. Par
ents who have not properly brought up
their own health efficiency cannot pro
duce efficient children and hence the
Increasing Infant mortalltc.
