Yellow Fever.

Notwithstanding the various reports
regarding yellow fever in Florida, it can
be seen by referring to the records of the
oldest city in the State, St. Augustine,
and also to that Of the oldest city in
South Georgia, St. Marys, which is on
the dividing line, that the disease is as
foreign to our section as in many of the
States further north, the latter city
showing the shortest interval betwee II
epidemics to be fiftythree years. In 1901
and again in 1854, when she was in a foul
and unsanitary state. Sporadic yellow
fever nor sporadic cholera should excite
the least alarm as they are both tractable

Kaki Culture.

agriculturst to graft forty-fve native
persimmons with choice scions of the
Japan Kaki. Nearly all of them grew

We think it is one of the healthiest pro-
ducts of our soil.
All of my gratis have been put in the
crown root of the native persimmOn just
where they originally grew. From my
Obsel alton, practice and five years
experience, am firmly impressed with
the potent fact that the Kaki does best
on the native stock, left where it comes
up. 1t makes some trees rather close
and breaks the old fogy harmony of
space and order, but plow should never
be run amongst Kaki trees.
A liberal supply Of stable manure
spread around them on top of the ground,
supplemented with hard wood ashes, or
potash, and weeds kept hoed or pulled
out Mulching is an important aid to
the growth of the Kaki but it withstands
much greater stress of drouth than
any other tree or plant on my premises.

I rmer has continually TO suffer. The
article in question contains an extract
fr IN the company's circular-followed
by an examination into it, claims; sum-
ming up very Justly in IL following
words.
This circular while trying to make
thf PEOPLE believe they are being hum
hugged with commercial fertilizers is at
the same time tr, ing 10 humbug them
with soft ph"sphate.
TIE case made out against the phos'
pi' ta companies, ar their representa-
'ivps. W lie very fair and Hing, Is by
no means exhaus ivf --in fact while only
bri fly elt~,ing il t. tie question from
the common sense p'int # view Of the
practical rirulturis', it !eAves untouched
the chemical aspect ( the question al"
most entirely.
We have seen many circulars and
phamphl,ts issued by and in the inter
es's OF various phosphate companies in
Florida, and We can only say Of them in
general, to make quotation from the
phosphate circular under discussion,
t',at the American farmer must have
''aloWed himself to be thoroughly and
completely humbuggod" if he has swa,-
10 ed to his discontinue the facts either
stated or implied in them. The circular
which ca led forth the article "Hnmbug
VS.. Humbug" sugges in the part quot
ed that the orange grower can buy soft
phosphate and other ingredients and
mix complete f.rlil'z Ger for himself at
n saving of 500 per t1n, and asks rhetor-
ic lily "Is this worth saving?" We came
stcr0ss q soft phosphate circular to-day
which is a remarkable document in
N my ways. Ii commences with quo
tation from the report Of the Pennsyl"
vAnia B ,ard of Agriculture, to pr,.ve
til: phosphGric acid is the deficient ele-
mint in the soil OF Pennsylvania, and
offers this as reason for using soft phOs-
phAte in Florida or.nge g.oves. 1t then
proceeds to say that the carbonE te of
lime contained in the ground phosphate
renders the phosphoric acid available
while, to quote verbatim from one of
the greatest American authorities ON Ag-
riculture. Carbonate of Lime tends to
impair the efficiency Of the fertilizers
(pkosphatic)---it protects the pho5-
phate from solution, so long as there is
any of it left, etc."
1t then claims that this soft phosphate
is speedy enricher Of the soil and that
the results given the first year Of its appli-
cation will be fully equal to those of any
commercial fertilizers costing from $50
to $40; that experts pronounce it worth
over $25 per ton at the mines as plant
food-and finally offers it to the trusting
grower at S9 f. O. b. We fancy the most
credulous and gullible farmer must surely
scent suspicion of humbug about this.
There is remarkable absence in the

diseases. The timidity exhibited by
many brave and intelligent men Of the
State leads us to conclude that the dis
ease, its cause, it's conveyance, its vista
tions and its period Of incubation, is not
properly or sufficiently understood by
the people, and the sentiment of learned
physicians that are versed in both theory
and practice should be disseminated
throughout the country that it may aC
least quiet the fears of many that may
or may not be exposed.
That there is no contagion by coming
in personal contact is an established GER
tainty not to be forgotten. And though
it's importation, it's portability, it's vista
tions and it's diffusibilty, is generally ad
mitted, still the specific poison finds no
lodgment only in polluted atmosphere
peculiarly susceptible to, or having an
affinity for the infective poison. And it
is this infection Of a locality however
circumscribed whether it be standing or
spreading, is owing much to the atmos-
pheres fitness for propagation. 1t is in
this infected air where the danger lies.
For nearly forty years we have practiced
our profession on the Florida and South
Georgia Coast. Being many years health
officer in St. Marys, where the millmen
of that city after the late civil war did
an extensive lumber trade with the
West India Islands and every summer
and fall some infected Spanish vessels
would come in. The sick we treated on
deck in open air under canvass. Then
the vessel was subjected to the process of
securing and fumigating, and always
preferring water and aerial diSenfection to
modern germicides or paraciticides, yet
it was our humble opinion when the
fever was very often in sight that our
safety was owing more to sanitary pre-
cautions than to quarantine restrictions.
Sanitation and Hygiene are our chief
defenses. Itwas this that saved Charles
ton, S. @. after a long period of frequent
infections. 1t was this method of pre-
vention that saved General Bullen' army
when New Orleans was regarded the hot
bed Of epidemics. And it is this that
will solve the vexed problem of quaran-
tine, the ancient and modern system of
delaying commerce between nations
which is not in conformity with the pro
gress of the period when ALI hurry, the
sea vieing with the land in speed and
splendor. G. HARDEE. M. D.
