Closing public place? will not be resorted to again to stop the influenza epidemic in Atlanta. This was decided yesterday afternco ! at a conference between the public I safety committee of the city and mu ! nicipal health authorities. The latter stated that the best public health | ; opinion in the United States agreed last week at the special influezna con ferenee held in Chicago that closing public places is not as effective afirst was believed. Although Atlanta is now in the midst of the disease, it is neither so wiespread nor so virulent as it was at first, and apparently more children are having it than grown people. The city's death rate is somewhat higher than normal, but no higher than it has frequently gone in times when there was no special epid( mic of any kind. The public safety committee and the city health authorities agreed that precautionary measures are in the hands of the people themselves. | They recommend that everybody get plenty of food, plenty of sleep, plenty of fresh air, and keep the .system in j good working order. Thorough clean- ; ing of the mouth, nose and throat at least once a day is also recommended. More emphasis is laid on the J1 value of fresh air than anything els? especially in sleenino- rooms ;>nd nf - * "O ~ "*,VI x'' fice. o A Tonic Laxative that will remove the bile from th* Liver ami cleanse the System THOROUGHLY without griping or disturbing the stomach is truly a Perfect Laxstive.

REEDOM OF SEAS | FOR GOOD NATIONS: t: ?? s iscount Grey aays on That ti , Point Agreement Could Be Reached EAGUE OF NATIONS SHOULD COVER CASE h ~ li mcrica, He Says, Has Acqui- ( b esecl in Shutting Seas V Acainst Evil Powers. _ i Dcv, berry, Eng.?A league of nacn:; 1 . the solution of the question < ' ' "free lorn of the seas," and Great ' ritaiu and ihe United States can t >ach a complete agreement on that 1 ue tion h;, jo'n'r.e; such a league 1 eclarc ! \1 n Grey, former foe- c ign secretary la a speech here. 1 The sea.-:, the Yi count raid, were ( re? in t'mes of peace, and Great 1 irilaia luw placed no res rictionr 1 p a them. During tin war the Anrieau r.r.v; had aided Ik > British av\ i : maintaining the blockade nd Lord Grey thought that tin j .."nit ul States woul i use the saivm /capon if necessity for it arose ;i he future. Without the blockade, he iddcd, Germany might have won. The term "freedom of the seas." to continued, was American in origin mil had been adopted by the Gornans for their own purposes. 1! elieved President Wilson meant free km of the seas to all who joined a cague of nations, hut the phrase .coded rlonrpr * 1 # ? fin it ion Doesn't Anticipate Trouble. In his discussion of the freedom of the seas Viscount Grey said: "This is a matter which, it is found, may create difficulties between President Wilson and the I British Government. 1 think it is a great pity that so much has been said about the freedom of the seas without being defined. It is true there is considerable prejudice against the phrase, largely due to the fact that it is believed to be a German phrase. It is not German, but American. It was made in the United States and the German;, adopted and used it for their own purposes in a sense to which we have never agreed. Hence its unpopularity. But until President Wilson defines it and comes to discuss it with our government there is no need to anticipate difficulty about an agreement as to what it means. Full Credit to America. "Freedom of the seas in times o; peace! If so we agree. If the question is one of the freedom of the scar, in times of war then I would ay this: The United States, as wo 1 most gratefully recognize, has taker, part in the last two years of the war. Without the United States we could not have had the success i the Allies have now won. But since | the United States entered the war ] she lias not only acquiesced, but I j believe, most strongly cooperated, in carrying out the blockade of Germany. In the early stages of the war the blockade was not nearly so complete, because the United States raised manv Questions ubnot it but I iii tho later years of tlie cor diet the blockade was made complete with the cooperation of the United State;. Without that blockade success could not have been won. Indeed, without the blockade Germany might have j won. Suppose It Reoccurs? "Suppose this situation should J exist again, and it is impossible to J . uppo c that the United States would ay that the blockade which was so essential for success shoul ! not be bowed?" he continued. "That would, tultify everything1 America did in ; this war. It would really be an insult to the United States to suggest that she would in future advocate any course in a war such as this inconsistent with what she did in this war, and that was the complete block ado of an offending nation. If this lie so we come to this. That prob amy wnat is in rresiacnt Wilson's mind is that freedom of the seas he secured to any FRhrahrahrahrro should be secured to any nation observing the covenants of a league of nations, and should be denied to any nation breaking- those covenants. If that is so, then a league, of nations >s the solution to the whole question and cannot be discussed apart from it. "On those grounds I believe there may be complete agreement between the two countries only if a league o? nations is formed. I do not see why this country should not accept the ormula that if a league of nations f ? formed there is to be complete J rccdom of the seas so Png as the ovennnts of the league are observed ut if the covenants are broken then here is to be no freedom of tineas, and every .-.icans are to be use ! gainst the power which has broken hem." [) Post-War Relatio-.ts. Speaking of relations after the ar between Great Britain and the Jnited States Viscount Grey said: "If there is competition in naval hipbuilding between Great Britain ml America it will be fatal to good p elations. What is desirable in oui ami ^eli.-y i; not domination or su. ic.ui.e/, but security. I do not brieve a conflict between America an I j ireat tsritam possible. We must not e jealous of any shipbuilding on the ^ art of the United States." o IN MKMORIAM. benjamin L. Prince.

The crop should be harvested as soon as possible after maturity and the seeds thrashed or shelled and treated by fumigation, neat, or cold storage, in order to kill the weevils in them before they can continue their destructive work and mature. Watch Seed After Treatment. The hcan arid cowp: a weevils hi eel generation after generation in stored seeds. Hence seeds should he watched after I realm* nt to make cor tain that they do not become reinfected. If stored in tight containers or in rooms free from a ;ult weevils the chance of re i rife station will he reduced to a minimum. Any remedy that lessens the number of weevils in the field has a direct effect upon the number of weevil-. to be fought in storage. Among the r< medics rocoirmended in the bulletin to h sscn abundance arc the planting of seed free from infestation, the practice of c\an culture, and the harvesting, thrashing, or ehel'ing and sacking of the seed as con as possible. Fumigation of the seed in storage with carbon disulphid or carbon totrachlorid will kill weevils. Heating Small Quantities. When only quantities of seed are t(? ho trmtivl Pio ' ~ .. uuiij^ i;i< ui?U '? most satisfactory. Place the seed ia an oven heated to 120 degrees to 14f> degrees F., and allow it to remain several hoars. An old method is to dip seeds in boiling water for one minute. Holdng seeds m boiling water for more than one minute will injure their value for planting purposes. Cold storage is ad so an effective remedy, and the use of lime or dust prevents continued breeding in storage and thus gives some protection. g A statement from authoritative sources regarding the part British hips have played in the transporting 'n Furope of the American army di,; iiv:(vi liial l.nglr.nd may be compelled soon to use all of her available frarrports for jvturn to their homes f troops of the British empire. o The address which President Wilson will make to the American troops, probably as soon after his arrival in France as possible, is expected to be one of the most important made during his stay in Europe.
