Poultry in Orchards.

Poultry in Orchards.
Mr.. Tegetmeier, the famous English
authority on poultry, in commenting
on report OF the Rhode Island expert
ment station regarding the value Of
fowls to orchards, says:
"For many years have advocated
the introduction Of poultry into apple
orchards, maintaining that they do
good service. in two very distinct

to know which ones are paying the
best returns for their food. With this
knowledge at hand, the dairyman has
a powerful aid to correct breeding.
The influence of the dam, and particu
larly the sire, on the quality of the
milk of the offspring, has been but
little studied, and offers fruitful field
for investigation. The owner of a herd
of cows, of his own breeding, will be
able to trace many lines Of influence,
from parent to offspring, and to note,
not only those that are prepotent for
good, but equally important, to de-
termine prepotency for evil The man
who is Systematically testing his COWS,
soon begins to note the relation be-
tween food and milk fow-to know his
cows individually, as to which ones will
make suitable return for increased
feed He has brought knowledge to
bear on many questions that were pre-
viously indefinite, and the result can
not fail to be increased commercial as
we'll as intellectual profit.

EARTH AND THE HEALTH.
Dangers That Affect the Residents Of
Large Cities.

Dangers That Affect the Residents of
Large Cities.
From Lette. to the Medical Record
Much attention has been given of late to
domestic sanitation. The average modern
house has better drainage than the mill
lIonaires mansion of twenty years ago.
In most cities plumbing must be executed
under official supervision and the public
health has been greatly benefited in conse-
quence.
Not enough thought. however. has been
given to the insidious influence Of the soil
upon health. DIR. Bowditch of Boston and
DIR. Buchanan of England, by their stimuli
taneous investigations, showed the import
ant relations which ground moisture bears
to consumption, and am inclined to think
that the health of the community is more
affected by the sanitary state of the soil
than by all other influences. This is par
ticulariy true of New York. where there Is
so much made land, and where the soil in
many places is made damp by old water
courses and polluted by the leakage from
gas water and steam pipes. Wherever the
earth is turned up to lay sewers or water
mains. there is an unmistakable odor of il
Illuminating gas. and the ground every
well known that Illuminating gas will pass
through frozen ground and crevices in rock
Tor long distance, and SO will cesspoOl air.
Neither foundation walls nor cement floor
their entrance Is accelerated by the suction
of stoves and open firepiaces. The we'll
known experiments of Pettenkofer and
Professor Doremus may be referred to In
this connection.
The mortality charts of the health board
show a close relation betw cen the preva-
lence of certain diseases and the condition
Of the soil. In low-lying or saturated Sec
tions typhoid .diphtheria, malarial fever and
other diseases find permanent home. IL
Manhattan Island could be thoroughly
drained. consumption would undoubtedly
diminish.
Our overheated houses are like gigantic
cupping glasses. and any impurities in the
soil will inevitably be diffused throughout
dwellings. In Bombay the plague has
fiourished most in houses with floors satu-
rated with dripping faucets and drainage.
House plants die II placed in q water
logged soil and human hahitations, like
their occupants. should not have wet feet.
In testing a suburban residence with the
smoke test recently. discovered that cess
pool air was being forced back into the
house through minute crevices in the soil
from quite a distance. In a large apart
ment mouse the emanations from surface
water in the cellar. heated by an adjacent
boiler, rose through the casing around a
waste pipe into a bed room on the tenth
floor and caused malaria among the In
mates. When the opening was plastered
up, the attacks ceased.
Many like cases indicate that more at
tentfon should be given to the effects of
such conditions on health.

Mr.. Barber's Anxiety.

Answering the suit filed against him sew
eral days ago by Dorothy E. Squires, for
merly his typewriter and stenographer, in
which Miss Squires asked that the defend

Der denies that he has ever threatened her
or her family with disgrace or other in

her own acts and not his. Mr.. Barber de-
nies all wrongdoing. saying that he does
not wish q resumption of the cid relations

William H. Matchett, printer who gave
his name as Mckihb.n when he was rescued

has done nothing this week ether than at
tempt to put himself out cf this world,
and today he was adjuIged insane.
The unfortunate man Is about forty years
old and has wife and several children
To policeman today he said that his wife
left him several days ago, and that three
of his children were sent to an institution.
This was more trouble than he could stand,
SO he said. and 1t drove him insane Dur
ing his rational moments he seems to real
ize the hopelessness of his condition
His father, who resides at 320 o street
southwest. took charge of him Wednesday
night, when he was saved from the filthy
water in the canal. and had hoped that his
cold water experience would dc him good.
but yesterday he renewed his efforts to
end his life, and his condition became so
serious this morning he was turned over
to the police by his father for safe keep
ing.
During the past three days the unfortu.
nate man has made six attempts to XII!
himself. Three Of these attempts were
made by jumping In the water, two by
hanging and once by endeavoring to beai
his brains out. This afternoon he was
sent to St. Elizabeths Asylum for the in.

TO COPY ALL THE PATENTS
B Wosld IAka q Trained Man Three
Yean.
TAe rnve.tive Genius Of the Country
aOme Of the Methods of the
Patent once.

Few persons have any idea Of tie vast
ness of the inventive genius Of America
as recorded in the United States paten: Of
fce. Not long ago a librarian wrote the
commissioner that tie desired to obtain a
copy of each patent that had been issue1
by the United States government.
An estimate was made of the time 1t
would take one Clerk to take from the
files of the ONCE a single copy of each
patent. There are rearly 600.0sU of these
patents. and printed copies of each are
kept tn bundles with the number of the
patent marked on the cotton wrapper for
quick reference. There are trained men,
ten of them. whose only work is to take
these printed descriptions of patents from
the files to furnish any one who desires to
purchase them. They are quick in han
ding the bundles. yet 1t is estimated that
IT would take one Of these experts three
years merely to pull from the racks
single cCpy of each patent flied in the
Office.
As this class Of labor is paid $500 per an
mum the cost to the government Of get
ting out the patents from the racks would
For five cents the patent Office will give
any one a copy of any patent that has
been isued by the office, and complete sets
OF tnese patents would be supplied at one
cent for each patent. That seems to he
cheap. but a complete set would cost about
$4,000. while their binding and assortment
for binding would make the whole expense
OF such set OF books not much less than
SlO.OOO. When bound they would make
1.oOO volumes, each as big as webster's
Unabridged Dictionary. Few patent agents
aspire to have complete sets of the patents
and Few OF them have offices big enough
| TO hold complete set If they should get
| them.
The patent ONCE is operating on anti
quated lines In number of respects mere
~ because Congress will not allow the
money collected from patentees to be spent
for their benefit. but keeps locked up I'm
the treasury Department a surplus from
tnls source amounting to about Sc 900 O,DO
In no better way Is the expensiveness caus-
ed by this lack of facilities better shown
than In the system Of storing the printed
copies OF patents. AS shown above. II
would cost 81 500 In labor to collect from
| the files one copy Of each of the 600 900
patents Ii these patents were stored con-
'enientiy. instead of being scattered in
every available place from cellar to garret
| Of the patent office building, and if they
weres kept in properly constructed filing
cases, instead Of being wrapped in cotton
one man could do the work of five at pres
ent. As 1t Is, ten n. cannot take patents
from the files rapidly enough to supply the
demand of inventors and attorneys who
daily make application to purchase them.
Scores of times commissioners of patents
have appealed to Congress for a proper
year surplus of $150.O00 Is turned into
/ the treasury, and 10 attention is paid to
| urgent appeals. The patent Office has
never cost the government a cent, and
congress steadily turns a deaf ear to peti-
| tons Tor Improvement of its facilities.
