Health OF The state.

Dr.. John II. R4uch. secretary of tie
state board of health, is seading out to
the municipal authorities OF the state a
circular letter reading as follows:
AT tie recent quarterly meeting of the
Illinois state board of health | was in,
structed 10 communicate With the various
municipalities of the state and to urge
the importance aud necessity of thor
ough cleaning and overhauling of every
city, town and village before the begin
ming Of warm weather. The death-rste
in Illinois during the last few months
shows that the vitality of the people is
red iced. This condition has been
brought about by causes that were
not strictly sanitary. When these
facts are borne in mind the ne
cessity for cleaning will be obvious,
since in the present state of heslth the
PEG pie are more than ordinarily likely to
be affected by unsanitarg conditions. 1t
is hoped that these suggestions Will be
promptly needed.

Army and Navy Medical association, an
nounces that the annual meeting of tie
association will be held in Springfield |,

Attacking Ant Hills with Cannon

In the forest of Guiana dwell some very
large and exceedingly ferocious black ants,
which throw up hills fifteen and even
twenty feet in height. They will not hest
tate 10 attack man, and their headquarters
are usually given wide berth. The trav-
eler Malouet speaks of having witnessed
the destruction of one of these fortresses
and its inhabitants in way that was GER
tainly extraordinary. A trench was dug
entirely around it and filled with dry wood,
which was set fire to simultaneously at all
points. Then a train of artillery was
brought 10 bear and the hill knocked to
pieces with the cannon balls The ants,
seeking to escape, were all burned in their
attempt to cross the fiery gutter.-Inter-

Antitrust Coal Tar.

A simple and economical way of tarring
sheet iron pipes to keep them from rusting
Is as follows: The sections as made should
be coated with coal tar and then filled with
light wood shavings, and the latter set on
lire. 1t Is declared that the effect of this
treatment will be to render the iron prac-
tically proof against rust for an indefinite
period, rendering future painting unneces-
sary. 1t IS important that the iron should
not be made too hot, or kept hot too long
time. lest the tar should be burned off.
Hence the directions for the use of light
shavings instead of any other means Of

This mornings Chicago Tribune says:
The terms of the purchase of the Mo-
line Plow company, the Deere s. Mansur
company and the Deere s. Co. harvester
works. all at Moline, H., have been
sgreed upon. and within a day or two all
the details of the deal will be made pub

the three big concerns have been going
on for several months. but Yesterday the
deal was closed At q meeting of the CAPT.
Ialists interested at the Grand Pacific,
and hereafter the establishments will be
conducted under one management.

The deal involves fully S.. 000. 000'csp-

Prices, the promoters claim, will go down.

1t is understood that Mr. Deere retains
