tina simplex is very simple disease,
oftentimes existing without the knowl-
edge of the parents. That scarlatina
anginoso is worse form of this disease
but as rule it is no more dangerous,
and very few die with it, not more than
with measels, perhaps not SO many.
That scarlatina maligna is a very dam
gerous disease, more fatal than small
pox or yellow fever, and that this form
Of scarlet fever is almost entirely con-
fined to more northern climate; and,
further, that one case may occur in a
family or community and no others be
affected by it. That the disease is the
result of a specific poison, which, like
the poison which produces other feyers,
may be taken into the system by one
or two persons in the same family and
then stop, or, like other fevers, may
go through whole family, and, like
other diseases, may prevail as an cpl
demic in any of its forms.
From the above we have reason tc
conclude that this community has but
little, perhaps nothing, to fear from
this disease in any form, certainly mol
in its malignant form. If we observe
the well known rules in regard to pure
water, fresh air and good ventilation il

churches we need have nothing to fear

There must be nothing lost in all

that be fact, you must have that privy

Evaporation Of Fruits and Vege.
tables.

There is perhaps no question of more
Importance to the fruit aud vegetable
grower of Tennessee than that of dis
posing of his products so as to receive
therefrOm the greatest possible profit.
1t is not enough to know how to grow
fruits and vegetables to perfection, but
We must be able to put them into such
shape as to realize the greatest possible
profits. Some farmers make large
crops, but through negligence or bad
management, let them 60 to waste and
thus fail to realize their value. Others
make but little and do not even take
care Of that. To be truly successful
we must produce large crops and then
take care of them in such way as to
obtain the highest prices. We ven
ture the assertion that fully one.fourth
of all the fruits and vegetable grown
in Tennessee 60 to waste for want of
proper care. This is too great loss
and should be avoided.
We believe that with a judicious use
of the evaporator, much, if not all, this
great waste might be saved. Every
farmer who grows fruits and vegetables
should have an evaporation, if for no
other purpose than to evaporate fruits
and vegetables for his own family.
Evaporated fruits are much more
healthy than the canned, and less ex'
pensive and uncertain in their keeping.
1t is question whether fruit put ur
in tin cans is healthy. The action Of
the acid on the tin is thought to render
the fruit thus preserved unhealthy,
Such fruits as do not keep well are GER
tainly very unhealthy. When once
we become accustomed to using the
sweet, delicious evaporated fruits anC
vegetables canning will go out of use
and ought to go out.
Almost any farmer can save and sci
enough of evaporated fruits in one sea
son to pay for an evaporation. and have
enough left for the use of his own fam
lily. With the use of the evaporation
your wives and children can take carr
of, with profit, your peaches, apples
pears, plums, blackberries, corn peas
snap beans, tomatoes, pumpkins anC
sweet potatoes. Give your wives anc
children a chance to make something
for themselves and they will soon b.
self-supporting-able to pay their owl
store bills and have money to put t.
interest. Evaporators may be pur
chased at all prices, from $25 up t
$1,000, according to the amount Q
fruits and vegetables produced on tn
farm. Evaporation will certainly prov
a profitable way to preserve our fruit
and vegetables.

In answer to inquiries received at

added to taxes not paid within certain

does not repeal the act of 1881, so far
as it imposes a penalty of twelve per
cent. on all taxes not paid by the first
day of June following the year for which
