GERMAN FARMERS REPOSE MARKS AS PAY FORPRODUCE Nation Being Reduced to OldFashioned Mode of 'Bartering in Kind,’ By CARL D. GROAT, United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN. July 25.—The continued fall of the mark, not only In exchange value, but In domestic purchasing power, Is rapidly bringing Germany to the point of old-fashioned “bartering in kind.” A strong tendency is developing among farmers to refuse to accept payment in marks for their produce. It has become a question in many cases, not of how many potatoes can be bought for so many thousand marks, but how many potatoes will be exchanged for a’gold watch or a phonograph. The farmer looks with more favor on a piece of jewelry or household furniture In return for a bag of onions than upon a flst-full of paper marks. With marks at 571,430 to the dollar, the effect is beginning to show, not only economically, politically. The elections ot the metal unions just held resulted in overwhelming Communist victories throughout Germany. The radical leaders in the metal unions were swept into complete control. Food prices are getting lo Ithe point where workmen are unable to make purchases. Food prices do not only follow, but surpass, the dollar quotation, while wages are regulated only twice a month to keep pace with the descending value of the mark. ,

TYPHOID BREAKS OUT IN VARIOUS PARTSOF STATE Health Board Secretary Advises Innoculation Against Disease, . More cases of typhoid fever, from widely scattered localities, have been reported to the State Board of Health this summer than for nearly ten years, Dr. William F. King, secretary, said today. Dr. Klnr predicted thousands of cases before late fall. Need for concentrated effort to prevent spread ofthe disease was emphasized In a statement by Dr. King, to be published in, the board's next monthly bulletin. Vaccination is the only safe and absolute preventive. Dr. King pointed out. Immunity for Seven Years.

“It is not safe to say definitely how long vaccination will provide immunity, but thus far immunity to soldiers vaccinated during the war has lasted six and seven years," Dr. King said. “If every susceptible person were vaccinated the disease would disappear and we should not pay the annual toll of 300 or 400 deaths in this State” / x At Liberty, nine cases have been • reported and three deaths have resulted. The State motorized sanitary laboratory has been working for weeks in the lake districts in the northern part or the State. Bernard Jeup, Jr., -of Indianapolis, in charge, will report to the board, probably next Wednesday. The laboratory staff completed a survey of the Winona area last week and will move to the Syracuse area next week. ' „ Preventive Measure* Recommendations concerning sewage disposal and water supply have been, made and local outbreaks have been prevented. Dr. King made the following recommendations: Do not drink water from a well or spring unless you are sure it is ncyt contaminated by discharges from human beings or barnyard animals. Do not permit open garbage cans or unscreened windows’ in and dining-rooms. Do not patronize any restaurant or Ice cream place which is unclean, or where flies are permitted to come in contact with the food. If you have any doubt about the purity and cleanliness of water or milk, sterilize the milk and boil the water. These are two of the greatest safety measures imaginable, g Again, it should be urged that every person, especially those contemplating a Journey, be vaccinated against typhoid. This vaccination consists of three harmless injections under the skin given about a week apart. There is but slight reaction. Discuss Multiple Listing.
