There is bnt little need to argue
regarding the importance of the

make it especially desirable
this year that the standard b"ar

that Capt. VanS;lnt is the

MYSTERIOUS DISEASE,
Fatal MaIady Among Cows at Hospital
for Insane.

Experts in cattle diseases from the bu-
reau of animal industry of the Agricultural
Department are endeavoring to ascertain
what kind of a maady it is that is respon-
sible for the death of thirteen cows recent
ly. at one of the barns of the Government
Hospital for the Insane. 1t is stated at the
department that no decision concerning the
ing made to determine the character Of the
disease, if possible. Examinations of the
animals after death has occurred have been
carefully made by persons of skill and a
decision is being anNiously awaited.
Not only is the disease to be named but
II Is to be determined positively whether it
is contagious one or not. The cows at
tackled have all been among those known as
the dry cows, which are kept in a separate
place from the others. The illness in some
cases came suddenly, and has had. it was
noted, duration of from four hours to
three or four days. 1t is stated that some
of the symptoms have been frothings at the
mouth, the drawing up and backward of
the animals head and conclusive chilly
trembling. which has been followed by
death IN time. The examine lions made
have shown the brains CT all the dead COWS
TO be affected, it is said and those who
have informed themselves on the subject
have advanced the theary that the sick
ness must be a form of spinal meningitis
but pending the tests by the experts no
positive opinion can be given.
The sickness among the cows seems to
have been checked within the past couple
titne and no animal being regarded now as

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
HAVANA, March Z, 1900
In speaking of the future Of the tobacco
business Mr.. Duke the head Of the Amer
lean tobacco trust, said recently that Cuba
had reached the full limit Of her possible
development In tobacco growing under
present conditions. This, he explained, was
due to the fact that the American import
duties were so high as to curtail the sale
in the United States to certain well-de-
fined trade, which could be very closely fig
ured on. for the price of the tobacco In
Cuba is very small proportion of its
price to the consumer in the United States.
AS proof Of this he instanced the glut of
Cuban tobacco in 1892 which resulted from
three successive good crops. and yet the
price of Havana cigars in the United States
that year was little or no less to the con-
sumner in the United States.
The employment of more scientific meth
DDS Of cultivation and the use of modern
machinery would add somewhat to the
profits Of the Cuban tobacco planter, but
1t would have little effect on the market
except to bring about an overstocked con-
dition more quickly than under the present
methods. Tobacco is raised in Wisconsin
at a cost Of or cents a pound, and the
finer grades in Connecticut at a cost Of
about cents a pound. If the tariff was
taken from tobacco entering the United
States Cuba could probably raise ten
times as much as is now produced, and

But while awaiting the action of Congress
consumers of the aforesaid mud and water
can, with slight trouble render n pure and
palatable. Boiling is resorted to by some
housekeepers, but this is too troublesome
Tor the average person to practice daily;
besides, contrary to the general belief, boil
ing does not completely DESTROY the disea Sc

least twenty minutes. This has been proven
by Prof. Leeds of New Jersey and other
chemists Then, again, boiling destroys the
natural taste of water, rendering it insipid
An equally effective and far less trouble
some method. according to the authority
mentioned, Is that of adding one grain Of
powdered alum to each gallon of water
Inc disease germs contained in water are
mostly albuminous matter, which alum
coagulates and precipi.a tes to the bottom
of the vessel, together with the ordinary
organic matter held in solution
A convenient way to add the alum is by
solution A heaping teaspoonful of DOW
dered alum should be added to a pint of
water. This would be about two-thirds of
a grain to teaspoon of the solution, which
would be sufficient for gallon. After add
Ing the alum solution the water should be
stirred, then allowed to stand. After a
lapse of several hours the water will be
found clear and may be decanted or care
fully poured off without disturbing the sedi-
ment; or 1t may be filtered, which, Of
course, Is preferable. The small quantity
OF alum contained in the water (which may
be slightly increased If the water is very
riley) has no injurious effect on the system
especially since it is precipitated with the
organic matter.
Those who try this simple method will he

convenience. and a supply of, pure water

Let those who try this method examine
the precipitation In an ordinary pail of wa
