that during the period from the time the
epidemic broke out until the last case

all, forty-eight houses were disinfected,
eight houses were destroyed and 1000
persons were vaccinated.

1t is an old and trite saying that
very few manufacturing concerns
could stand the same rate of waste
and loss that most farmers stand. Our
watch of details is not good. We
don't "get around" to many things
until too late. The ditch left un-
opened, the rotted fence-posts not re-
placed, the leak in the roof not re-
paired, the nicanest of weeds not
killed before seeding, the lost bolt
in an implement not replaced, the
building not painted till the wood is
injured, the hundred things we do too
late for best results or leave entirely
undone-thesc will usually be fewer
in number on a small farm, or should
be, unless we have ability to employ
others freely. At any rate, the man
who is now rushed on big farm and
neglects these details could do better
on fewer acres with the same amount
of labor. Neglect, waste, delay, wipe
out profits on many farms. Does any
one doubt his?"-Farm and Fireside.

THE WATER SUPPLY.
One Of the Essentials to the Health
of Man and Beast and to
successful Farming.

Water is the most important sub
stance in nature. Neither animal nor
vegetable life can exist without it; it
forms large part of all material sub
stances in their natural condition.
Water is as necessary to health as to
existence. 1t is also the vehicle of
more disease and death than any
other substance. Water for domestic
use may be healthful or it may carry
into the system many dangerous dis
cases. Let us, therefore, consider the
ordinary sources of water supply for
family use-springs, dug wells, els
terms and bored wells. Springs THAI
bubble up through sand afford fair
ly sanitary supply, If protected
against surface contamination, and
are not over-charged with salt, lime,
gypsum, sulphurated hydrogen, etc.
Absolutely pure water does not exist
in nature, because it is the greatest
known solvent of both solid and CASE
GUS substances, and a considerable
amount of mineral matter does not
render the water unsanitary. Shall
low springs are not safe as a water
supply. Water coming from river
banks is generally bad, being con-
taminated by surface seepage and the
large amount of organic matter con-
tanned in the alluvial formations,
through which it flows. Dug wells,
protected by the sand box and
notched wood curbing, are to say the
least, as bad as pond water. There
can be no estimate made of the
amount of sickness and death caused
by these cess-pools. They are open to
surface pollution, to rats, insects.
frogs and snakes, and the wide open
mouth stands ready to receive any
sort of contamination that comes
that way. Once contaminated, it is
very difficult to disinfect them, for the
body of water is SO large, ranging
from 80 to 300 cubic feet, that, NO
matter how much may be drawn out,
some water will remain that was
there when the process began. Cis-
tern water without altering is bad,
and bad only, and especially SO in
cities where the filthy and contamin-
ated dust of the streets find Judgment
on the roofs, where no amount of
rain will wash them clean. Unfiltered
cistern water should never be used
for drinking purposes without first
being boiled. On farms, however,
where there 10 little dust, and that

As a result of the changeable eli

most prevalent and universal diseases
known to man. Nearly one-third of
the people of the United States are
afflicted with catarrh in some of its
many phases and stages. Add to. this
the fact that catarrh rapidly tends to
become fixed or chronic, also the fur
Their fact that it is capable of producing
a great many other diseases, and we

So formidable has catarrh become
that in every city or town of any size
numerous doctors are to be found who
make the treatment OF catarrh spe-
cialty. OF course a great deal OF good
is accomplished in this way, but as
yet a comparatively small number OF
the people can avail themselves of this
treatment because of the great expense
necessarily attached to it.

properly made, they are free from all
the sources or contamination to
which dug wells are liable. The wa

filtered and,if not too heavily charged

Level Surface sweet-Pot.to Cultur.

Level Surface Sweet-POtato Culture.
Making ridges or hills in which to
set sweet-potato slips is useless. Five
years ago l made ridges for half of

mainder set out on q perfectly level.
smooth surface. Those in ridges made
longer tubers, hut many of them were
too stringy for uss. The tubers of
those cultivated on the level surface
plain were shorter, considerably larger
in circumference, more uniform in
size. without strings among them, and
in every way more desirable for home
use or for the market.
The sweet-potato tuber never begins
to expand until the tap-root has
reached the hard ground, conse-
quently if the slip is set high up in
the ridge the tap-root has so much
farther to grow to reach the hard
ground that makes the crop later and
gives the tubers less time to expand
and mature; therefore, much of the
crop will be stringy and unmarketa-
BILE.
l break my sweet-potato ground
about five inches deep, pulverize it
well and mark the rows off about
three feet apart. l do not wait for il
to rain and make season; neither
do l carry water and make season.
1 draw my slips in the evening, and
after the sun gets low enough that it
will not wilt them down, set them
out. l let them take the dew of the
night, and early in the morning, be-
fore the sun is high, take hoe and
cover them all up with dirt, so the
scorching rays will have no effect on
them. let them remain in this con-
dition for week or ten days, when
the roots of the young plants will
have taken hold in the soil, then un-
cover the tops. They never wilt, but
start to grow much quicker than il
set out and watered and then left to
take the scorching rays of the sun
before they have taken root in the
soil.
On this plan sweet-potatoes are not
half the trouble to cultivate, from the
fact that you can pillow close up to
the plants, and the hoeing will be
small matter. pillow my sweet-pota-
toes twice with a double-shovel or
cultivator, following each time with
the hoe, slightly hillsing them at the
last working.
