A Nebraska correspondent Of The
Chicago Record says: "Wlndmills
are getting to be as thick in Nebraska
as In Holland. There is at least n
at every farmhouse to pump water;
often another at the b%arnyard, and
sometimes several others at the diff
ferent corrals or feeding places for
cattle. In the towns clusters Of wind
mills rise above the roofs and give q
quaint and picturesque appearance to
the landscape. They differ from the
Dutch windmills, however. They are
open wheels of wood, while in Hol-
land the wheels r usually made OF
canvas fastened to long arms, which
revolve very slowly and in a dignifed
way appropriate to the Dutch charac-
ter. The Nebraska windmills whirl
with great energy at the slightest pro-
vocation, illustrative Of the character
of many citizens Of this State"

The Indiana Supreme Court has de-
cided that it is within the power or
the State Legislature to compel the
vaccination Of school children. In rem
dering its decision, the court says that
it does not presume to say whether or
not vaccination is q preventive OF
smallpox. 1t thinks this is not a ques-
ton for the court and is one about
which medical men differ. While
there is in Indiana M explicit law
making vaccination compulsory as O
condition Of public school attendance,
the court declares that the school au-
thorities, In excluding the boy whose
parents refuse to have him ~vaccinat-
ed, were within their province. They
had acted under the advice of the
State Board of Health in view OF an
emergency. However, the court rules
chat the exclusion Of the student In
question should not have force or eff
feet longer than the existence OF the
emergency. The court does not doubt
that compulsory vaccination Is clearly
within the police power Of the State.
The gist of the matter 10 that a child
may be given the choice either to be
yaccinated or to remain out Of school
until the danger Of smallpox has

ity from consumption In this section
is steadily diminishing. The latest re-
port of the State Registrar of Vital
Statistics for Maine demonstrates that
such a diminution has been in progress
for a number of years, the deaths from
the disease having been 1852 In 1882,
and in succeeding years, 1,299' l,26z'
1,195, 1,172, 1,128 and 1,021. The prin-
cipal reason for this remarkable fall
ing off is undoubtedly the fact that
during this period the people have been
/ steadily coming to understand more
| and more clearly that pulmonary tu-
| b~ereulosis is a ~preventable disease.
| Eleven years ago the State Board or
| Health issued it's circular on the pre-
vention of consumption, and since then
It has repeatedly been published In
