FOOT AND HAND.

The health authorities of the munich
pality of Madras, India, have been called
upon to solve an interesting question.
The inhabitants Of the neighborhood re-
Gently memorialized the Madras govern
nlent, protesting that the neighboring
canal affected their drinking water wells,
by inducing a pe%rcolation Of brackish
water, and, to crown this evil, had
brought about an increase of elephan-
tiasis. In regard to the matter of ele-
phantiasis, Investigation brought out the
fact that it was impossible that the prox-
unity of the canal could have any infiu-
ence in the spread of the disease, because
the parasite concerned is too large to
permit of it's passage through the soil to
the drinking wells Of the people, b.
which it was claimed the disease was
conveyed. 1t was further argued that
the filaria which is the accompaniment
of the disease, instead of penetrating the
body of the mosquito and thus obtain
ing it's freedom in water as formerly con-
tended, is really, as in the case of the
primary forms of malaria, protozoon.
passed from the mosquito in such close
proximity to he proboscis as to leave it
to be supposed that on the mosquito
iercing the skin of "a the filaria effects
its entrance by the skin. 1t would thus
be no longer necessary to regard the
water as the medium, and it would suf-
flee that the presence of a person infect
ed with the filaria should be at large to
enable the mosquito to ansfer the
causative agent of elephantiasis from
man to man. The water was thus alb
solved of responsibility in the generation
OF the disease and the commission ap-
pointed to investigate the matter re-
ported in such a way as to amply con-
firm the recent theory that the nocula-
ton of filaria may now be added to the
malarial sins of the mosquito.

SOUTH OMAHA MARKET REPORT.
South Omaha, Neb., Sept. q

/ NO0Nh OAAAoho5 ANScss 0NPS' -
Live Stock Report, furnished by thu
| F1ato Commission Co. of South Omaha
Neb.:
An Indifferent demand has been th
prevailing feature of the fat cattlt
market the past week, there having
been nothing at all choice offered or
this market, the bulk of the corn-fet
cattle being short fed and Of rather
inferior quality. Strictly choice cattle
are in as strong demand as formerly
but the medium and common stun
shows a decline of 10915 cents from
last week. Although receipts consist
almost entirely of range cattle, the
number of steers suitable for killing
purposes continues very limited and
packers are still meeting with very
keen competition for this class Of stuff
from the feeder buyers, which puts an
edge on the market and holds prices
very firm.
Receipts of cows and heifers have
been liberal, mostly range stuff, but
throughout the week there has been
very little fiuctuation, the market clos
ing today with an active demand for
both killing and feeding cattle of this
kind. Common and fair steers sold
today at s4.4O to $3.50, fair to good $500
to $5.25, beeves $3.50 to $3.50.
The demand for good heavy feeders
and choice yearlings still continues
heavier than the supply, being tasty
disposed of at strong prices. The bulk
Of our feeding cattle have been light
and medium weights Of rather inferior
quality and until the last few days
has been a heavy drag on the market.
The week opened with prices 20 to 90
cents lower than two weeks ago, but
now that the corn crop is nearing ma
turity the demand for this kind OF
stuff has strengthened materially and
dealers are experiencing less trouble in
disposing of it than they have any time
this season. Good to choice are selling
at $4.20 to $4.70, fair to good $500 to
$4.2O, fair $3.75 to $3.50, common $3.65
down, stock heifers $275 to SO. so.
Hogs have been holding their own
very well this week, and are as high
today as any time Of the month, with
the single exception Of Tuesday of last
week. Packers have been very bearish
all week, being slow to start doing bus
mess, with the evident intention of
making a slow market and cheaper
the cost Of their droves. But sellers
have almost unanimously held for
steady or better prices and have been
basis. Heavy and trashy lights are
selling from $50 to $5.22, light $500 to
$535, mixed $5.15 to $5.25, average cost
today, $5.21 rs.
