To the Medical Profession.

The various medical associations
and the medical profession will be
glad to learn that DR.. John s. Bill
ings, Surgeon, U. S. Army, has con-
sented to take charge of the Report
on the Mortality and Vital Statistics
Of The United States as returned by
the Eleventh Census.
AS the United States has no system
of registration of vital statistics. such
as is relied upon by other civilized
nations for the purpose of ascertain
ing the actual movement Of popula-
ton, our census affords the only OPP
portunity of obtaining near an ap-
proximate estimate of the birth and
death rates of much the larger part OF
the country, which is entirely un-
provided with any satisfactory sys-
tenn of State and municipal registra-
ton.
In view of this, the Census Office,
during the month Of May this year,
Will Issue to the medical profession
throughout the country "Physician's
Registers" for the purpose Of obtain.
ing more accurate returns of deaths
than 1t is possible for the enumerators
to make. 1t IS earnestly hoped that
physicians in every part of the
country will cooperate with the
Census Office in this important work.
The record should be kept from June
l, 1889, to May 81, 1890. Nearly 10000
of these registration books were filled
up and returned to the office in 1880,
and nearly all of them used for
statistical purposes. It is hoped that
double this number will be obtained
for the Eleventh Census.
Physicians not receiving Registers
can obtain them by sending their
names and addresses to the Census
Office, and, with the Register, an
official envelope which requires no
stamp will be provided for their re-
turn to Washington.
If all medical and surgical prac-
titioners throughout the country will
lend their aid, the mortality and vital
statistics of the Eleventh Census will
be more comprehensive and complete
than they have ever been. Every
physician should take a personal
pride in having this report as full and
accurate as it is possible to make it.
It Is hereby promised that all in
formation obtained through this
source shall be held strictly conf
Dental.

Frank H. Vallette, in article in the
last number of the Northwestern
Agriculturist under the head of 1.-THE
Trotter for the Farmer" has this to
say of trotting horses: "Other things
being equal, get as much as you can
of the blood of old Rysdyk's HANDLE
tonlan. There are numerous advo-
Gates of the Morgan, the Clay, and
the Membrino, but the figures show
that Hambletonian and his sons and
daughters have brought forth into
the trotting world far more speed
than any other family, if not of all
combined. Hambletonian himself
sired Al performers in 2:3O and under,
and not only that, but he also sired
107 sons who in their turn are the
sires Of 567 performers. When any
one in your hearing claims superiority
for the Clays or the Morgans you can
set 1t down as the result Of either
ignorance or prejudice, and there is q
great deal of prejudice among horse
breeders and trainers. Pay $3.50 for
'Wallace's Year Book for 1885, It
will give all the information you need
about trotters and their pedigrees and
then no one can deceive you with a
false pedigree for their stallion, as is
often the case. If the stallion is reg
istered, he has number and 80 has
his sire and the sire Of his dam. Get
their numbers and names and look
them up yourself"

Rect Root Sugar.

The beet root sugar industry has be-
come one Of the most interesting of mod
ern times. Germany takes the lead in
the production, raising annually 1,115,-
900 tons. All the beet root sugar pro-
duced annually in the world is 2,546, 900
tons. Of cane sugar there is made an
nually 1890, 900 tons, so that more than
half the sugar consumed is now made
from the saccharine beet.
The success that has attended this in
dustry has only been gained after CEN
fury of failure. The chief progress has
been made within the last twenty years,
and is distinctively a triumph for German
agricultural chemistry. The German
government offered bounties to capitalists
who would start factories and encouraged
the farmer in various ways to cultivate
the root, Today the German farmer OBJ
tains three times the profit from the
sugar beet that he does from his grain
crop.
In the United States the sugar beet
crop brings in $50 to the acre, while the
grain crop averages only $12 to the
acre. The beet has been found pecu-
liarly adapted to our northern states,
when not planted too near the sea coast.
It has been found to rotate admirably
with grain crops-grain crops two years,
then the third year the sugar beet.
Each seems somehow to add to the soil
what the other takes from it. In order
10 be perfectly successful the sugar fac
tory and the bret plantations should be
near together. A mixed soil, long, mod
crate summer and regular rainfall fur
nish the best conditions.

creek became a roaring river. Johns
town, q city of about 5000, and many
beautiful villages along the valley OF
the Conemaugh river were completely
by the rushing waters,
carrying death and destruction IN
their course. The reservoir lies about
IS miles northeast of Johnstown and
is the site of the old reservoir which
was one of the feeders of the Penn
sylvania canal. 1t ia 200 to 800 feet
above the level of Johnstown, being
in the mountains. It Is about 313
miles long and from l to Ia miles
wide and some places it is 100 feet in
depth. 1t holds more water than any
other reservoir, natural or artihcial,
In the United States. The lake has
been quadrupled in size by artificial
means and was held in check by
dam 700 to 1000 feet wide. It is ~
feet in thickness at the base, and the
height is 10 feet. The top has
breadth of over 20 feet. Recognizing
the menace winch the lake had to the
region below, the South Fork club
had the dam inspected once month
by the Pennsylvania railroad engi-
neers, and their investigation showed
that nothing less than some convul-
sion of nature would tear the barrier
away and loosen the weapon OF death.
The steady rains Of the past 4o hours
increased the volume OF water In all
| the small mountain streams which
were already swelled by the lesser
rains earlier in the week. From the
best information obtained at this
time it is evident that something IN
the nature OF Il cloud burst must have
been the elimination OF the struggle
of the water against the embankment
Of all the fearful occurrences the
most terrible was fire, Ill which

only line running dining cars, sleeping cars
and free colonist sleepers of its own from st.
Paul and Minneapolis to Great Falls, Helena

Butte.
WAsHINGTON.-The country of tall timber,
indented by Puget Sound, the Mediterranean

only line which offers choice of three routes
to the Pacific coast. The Manitoba Pacific
route is the only line by which passengers en-
route for Tacoma, Portland and San Frencisco
can pass through Fort Townsend and Seattle:

The Berlin dispatches state that the
prompt agreement of the Commission
upon the points in controversy was in
large measure due to the fact that the
American representatives had spec!hc
instructions from their Government
upon every point. This is i'll happy
contrast with the shifting and vacil-
lating attitude of Secretary Bayard
In his foreign dealings. This sudden
change in the attitude Of foreign
Governments toward the United
States is one of the most significant
illustrations of the fact that it was
the American idea which repudiated
the Cleveland-Bayard Administration
and placed Harrison and Blaine in
command Of the ship Of State.

A substitute for glass is finding con-
siderable favor in London. The basis of
it is threads of very light iron wire,
about one-twelfth of an inch apart,
woven like the threads of cloth. A sheet
of this wire is dipped again and again
into translucent varnish. The varnish
contains no gum or resin and is made
from linseed oil. After the sheet be-
comes thick enough, it is put away to
dry for several weeks. Then it is ready
to be used as window panes or for other
purposes. It is of a brilliant amber
color and is nearly as clear as glass it.

1.-THE Best is Good Enough

The man who said: 1.-THE best is
good enough for me-" may have been
an egotist, but he had the merit OF
frankness at least. The motto OF
"The Burlington" is: "Only the best
is good enough for our patrons" and
acting on that motto it has the best
track, the best grades, the best coach
es, sleepers and dining cars, the best
connections, the best time, and
reaches all the best cities in the west.
It's employees are required to be
courteous and accommodating, and the
management endeavOrs to arrange all
the matters of the train service sc
that the passenger shall feel he Is re-
ceiving the best of attention, and
that he is in the hands of the best
railroad corporation he ever patron
lied. The constantly increasing bust
ness done by this line, and the popu'
