HEALTH OFFICE CRUSADE
EFFORT TO PREVENT SALES OF M
PURE MIIaN
Vigilance Checks yEpidcmic of Ty-
phOid Fever-use of Formalde-
hyde as Prenerwatiye.

The crusade against impure milk, which
has been SO INCREASINGLY waSed by the
health department IF the District since the
warm weather pegan. has resulted, IT is
declared. in stopping what bade fair to be a
serious typhoid epidemic in d certain sec
tion of this city. A recent outbreak of
this disease was noted by the department
In very limited area of territory, the
number of cases being ten or more. An In
vestigation of the milk used uy the fami-
lies afflicted resulted in the discovery that
it was infected with typhoid bacteria. In
quiry developed tnat the milk furnished
these families was supplied from two near
by farms. An inspector was at once sent
to the farms In question and located ty-
phoid fever cases in each instance. The
dealers were, of course. forbidden to deliv-
er any more milk In the city.
Dr. woodward explained to a Star re-
porter this morning that typhoid fever
germs flourish more readily in. milk than
crease more rapidly in milk. How they
are transmitted to the milk from per-
son suffering with the disease is problem
aticai 1t was the opinion Of the doctor
tnat the germs may have In some way
been deposited in the water in which the
milk cans were washed, and when the milk
was poured into the cans a few germs
would rapidly multiply.
Use of Drug as Preventative.
Notwithstanding the campaign of the
health department against formaldehyde,
milk shippers still continue to use the drug
as preseryative. Yesterday James w.
Carr of Alexandria. a milk shipper to this
city, was notified that his permit was
voked. In the same letter Mr. Carr was
told that the revocation of his permit was
the result o fthe finding of formaldehyde In
ms milk. Charles H. Long of Brandy Sta
ton, Va, has also had his permit cam
ceied for the same cause Neither of
these parties peddled milk in the District.
Ihelr cons1gnmenss were shipped in to
wholesale dealers. In both instances the
inspectors procured samples before the pro-
duct reached the local dealers.
From the last issue Of Howard's Dairy
man 1t appears that the disposal of milk
preservatives. to farmers Is getting to be
an enterprise which promises to rival the
proverbial lightning rod industry. The pre-
servative, which in every instance is de-
ciared by chemists to be compounded with
formaldehyde as the basis. Is sold under
many fHusive names, the most popular Of
which is said to be '.freezine." It is called
by Its manufacturers a liquid gas When
farmers have to hight both the agents who
oner pfeservatiHes for sale and also elude
the authorities when they use preservatives,
It is declared that their troubles are more
than two-foId.

Splendid Court Officials.

1.-THE best court official in North
Carolina" is the verdict of all the Su-
perior court judges who come to Raleigh,
when talking of Deputy Clerk Vitruvius
Register. BY his intimate knowledge OF
court methods. his arrangement OF the
papers and his uniform politeness to all
who have business in the court he
greatly lightens the work of the judges
and they all go away loud in his praise.
The court just closed has been no eX-
ception to the rule in this respect The
systematic arrangement of the Calendar
of cases by Clerk Russ and the prompt
execution by Sheriff Page and his depu-
ties, of the orders and processes of the
court, also contributed to the prompt
dispatch of the business of the court.

THE TROUBLE GROWS
Another Indictment Found by
Grand Jury.
Mr.. Robert |. Gray Charged With Aiding and
Ab,tting in the Attack Upon Mayor
Powell Wednesday.

The grand jury yesterday morning
found true bill against Robert L. Gray,
young lawyer of this city, charging him
with assault and battery by aiding and
abetting Ed S. Battle in an attack upon
Mayor Powell, on the street Wednesday
evening.
The bill was found about 10 o'clock
Papers were at once issued. but were not
served, being brought back endorsed,
mot to be Found"
The evidence upon which the indict-
ment was found was that Gray accom-
panied Battle most Of the time after he
left the court till the attack was made
on the mayor, that Gray sent from Sam
Smiths bar one of the telephone mes
sages asking the mayor to come to his
office at once to issue some very impor-
tant papers,"
The other message was sent from the
Capital Club, and the full evidence in
regard to it could not be secured in time
to be placed before the grand jury. From
this, still further sensations may follow
at the next term of court in January
After court adjourned yesterday after
noon the papers were served on the de-
lSHudHI NIdy dtIi lie gave UOuu III the
sum of $500 for his appearance at the

Mr. Battle left the city Thursday night
as he is under $500 justified bond until
the Supreme court shall either affirm OF

by Judge Robinson. If the Supreme court
affirms the action of the lower court
then as soon as the same is certified tc

THE VALUE OF COTTON SEED.
The Statement Of DR.. Kilgore Was Accom-
panied by Verbal Explanation.

During the cotton growers meeting
here, printed statement, entitled Some
Facts About Cotton Seed" was presented
by State Chemist Kilgore.
This statement made a calculation as
to the value to the farmer OF seed and
meal as a fertilizer, and was published
in yesterdays paper.
1t figures out cotton seed as worth
slightly more than 19 cents. and has
therefore created considerable unfavor-
able comment.
"Jhe criticism" said Commissioner
Patterson yesterday, sis due to the fact
that the printed statement does not set
forth the basis on which the calculation
is made. Dr. KilgOre is absent from the
city and cannot therefore fully explain
it as he did before the convention, and
to the entire satisfaction of all who heard
him.
"The calculation by which he arrives
at the 1? cent value is made on the theo-
retical or prime cost of the basic mate
rials-the price at which the manufac-
turer buys them at wholesale. Also it
is on a basis of 500 ton for the COM
monest sort of fertilizer. This, you see,
gives the manufacturer both ends of the
rope, and even then the seed are worth
over 10 cents.
IF you will take an average price for
the raw neutrality-suspicious. acid, potash
and ammonia-and an average price for
the manufactured article, you can't figure
out the value of cotton seed at less than
IS cents; it is nearer q cents.
This l think is in effect about the ex-
PLANTATION made by DR.. Kilgore when he
presented his statement"

CHANGES IN THE JAIL.

Again the grand jury has brought in
report calling attention to the fact
that separate apartments for male and
female prisoners are needed in Wake
county Jail, and again the Judge has
urged the Importance OF prompt compli-
ance on the part of the commissioners
with this recommendation. He added:
Serve copy of this report on the
| chairman of the board, Mr.. Clerk, and
| notify him that if it is not complied with
at once, the members of the board will
be indicted by the next grand jury
The part of the report in reference to
the Jail follows:
1--WE also visited the county Jail and
found it kept in healthy and clean con-
dition. The prisoners are well fed and
cared for and treated with kindness and
we hear no complaint of any kind, but
find that the improvements recommended
by former grand jury have not been
made, to-wit: that of fixing up the cells
for female prisoners SO that they will
not be confined in the same department as
that occupied by the male prisoners,
though there are dividing partitions OF
solid steel between them. We respect
fully recommend that the rooms in front
of the jail be fixed up by the county
commissioners at once for the reception
of female prisoners.
The report further says that the work
house was found clean and well kept, the
offices in the court house in good order
and the books neatly kept.
The jury also took occasion in its re-
port to thank the judge and solicitor for
courtosies and assistance in their labGrs

the grand jury on the manner in which
they had discharged their duties they
