park Improvement.

The JOURNAL has recorded the cur
rent history of the City Park as occa-
sion seemed TO require and we will
not surfeit its readers by continued
repetition. We wish merely to notice
at this time that feature Of improve
ment suggested by the policy Of lot
supervision. The casual visitor will
observe that great amount Of free
labor has been voluntarily performed
in the aggregate by those who have
assumed the care of lots. The super
visors Of lots have taken a personal
interest In the park in tldying up
their special areas and have thus
made the park as whole decidedly
the better in every aspect. Some
have taken special pride in devising
artistic designs for convenience and
antractiveness. There are some lots,
however, upon which little or no spec
ial work has been done and this de-
tracts from the general appearance.
The park as whole would look much
better if all the lots were improved.
Especially is this desirable in view of
the intention OF the Commissioners
TO induce a sod of cultivated grasses
to grow. All the lots should be level
ed, the stumps grubbed out and so
much thinning and trimming OF the
trees as is necessary should be done
| this fall.

Extravaqant Statements.

Extreme or extravaganza state
ments initiate against their effects.
This is true in any line Of argument.
There are three Of these statements
we have recently seen applying to dis
ease. One of these is to the effect
that medical men assert that 80 per
cent-nine-tenth s-of all cases Of con-
tagious diseases are caused by cats
and dogs. The extrayagance--al-
most absurdity--of this statement is
apparent without any investigation.
But its probability is seen In the
fact that cats and dogs are domestic
they seldom go to neighboring
houses, which they are supposed to do
to carry the disease from a family that
has it to one that does not.
Another The celebrated Professor
Koch, the great German savant and
physician who has made important
discoveries In antidotes and prevent
ives by incubation, claims to have
demonstrated by investigation and
experiment that malaria is the result
of incubation by the bite Of mosqul-
toes. In proof of the statement it is
incidentally shown that where there
are no mosquitoes there is no malaria.
But as limitation to this statement
it ought to follow that wherever there
are mosquitoes there ought to be ma
laria--which does not hold. These
pests are numerous In northern Min
nesota, Dakota and Alaska--places
where there is no malaria.
Still another and the latest: The
kitchen broom is the most prolific
breeder of disease bacteria. This i'm
plement Of the scavenger gathers
the germs of all manner OF diseases
or breeds these germs from the ac-
cumulations of dirty things which 1t
gathers from the floors. Hence 1t fol-
lows that If we kill all the cats and
dogs, exterminate the mosquitoes and
burn the old brooms we shall be prac-
tically immune from diseases and shall
all die of nothing worse than old age.

Luther Spaulding left three ears Of
corn at this Office Saturday of the va
riety of Golden Medal dent These
ears indicate a remarkable growth for
this latitude of variety so large.
The ears are large, the grains firm
and hard and fully ripe, the cob solid.
One ear has % rows with 40 grains In
a row--8S0 grains. The other two
ears have each 20 rows with 10 grains
In row. In the early settlement OF
this section it was feared we could not
raise corn In consequence of the short
season of growth between the last
frosts of spring and the first Of early
autumn. But the reason why corn
did not mature is now evident: 1t had
not become adapted to the climate.
The seed was brought here from the
south from the necessity of the case.
There the seasons are longer and ii
required a series OF years in this new
condition for perfect adaptation. At
first corn did not rlpen except the
earliest varieties and these only in
the most favorable locations. Corn
will grow if selected while in the milk
and thoroughly dried. This corn was
first grown here under these condi-
tions with many failures and much
encouragement, but 1t gradually a.
dapted itself to the climate, the ears
and stalks smaller than the original
stock that came from the south but
as certain of maturity as corn crops OF
Illinois. The shorter the season the
more rapidly vegetation grows during
the season of growth. incidentally
we may notice that there is a peculiar.
ity in the growth Of the ears Of corn,
as the rows of grains are always an
even number An ear of corn with
an odd number of rows would be con-
sidered remarkable freak.

A revolution is imminent 10 Santo
Domingo. The assassination Of Pres
ident Heureaux, whether premedi-
tated arrangement for the inception
of a revolution or not has given an
opportunity for the opposition to the
administration to organize a revolu-
tion with possibilities of success. 1t
is said many of the people Of the Black
Republic desire annexation to the
United States. 1t will be remem ber-
ed that while Gen. Grant was presi-
dent of the United States in 1869 the
people Of ST. Domingo applied for an
nexation TO this nation but Congress
and the American people opposed the
proposition at that time. st. Dom
lingo lies between Cuba and Porto
Rico and since both those countries
will be Americanized the destiny of
st. Domingo is evident. An annexa-
tion movement at this time would
probably meet with success.
