INFANT MORTALITY.
Reasons for loss of Budding Life
Among Hawaiians.

fAIllOllS I1dNdlldlS.
Not only is the birth-rate among the
native Hawaiians very low, but their
death rate is extremely large, and es-
pecially so among their infants. Re
cent statistics show the death rate of
Hawaiian infants in Honolulu to be
nearly three ffths of all infant deaths
in the city, although Hawaiians do not
furnish one-third of the births.
This evil condition is no doubt due
in considerable degree to the impaired
constitution of these infants from in
herited disease, and the dsOrderly lives
of many of the parents. 1t is also oW-
ing to improper food. IL is common to
see natives feeding young babes on
sweet potato, poi and other food unfit
for their tender condition. The en-
feebled mothers are very commonly
incapable of supplying the natural nu-
triment. Many lives of such infants
have been saved by benevolent white
neighbors giving them cows milk, suit
ably prepared.
The outlook does not appear bright
for arresting the decimation of the Ha-
waiian race, which has gone on unin-
terruptedly for 120 years. The chief
existing obstacle to it's arrest is the fact
that males in Hawaii outnumber fe-
males by one hundred per cent from
which the easy natured natives are the
chief sufferers. The only antidote is
in whatever eevates and strengthens
the moral condition of the native te-
males. The best work is done by
Christian Training schools for the girls.

MOSQUITO CURE.

Prof. DR.. Voges, the director of the
national board of health at Buenos
Ayres, according to German papers,
has found a remedy for mosquito bites
He states that he discovered it by ac-
cident during his trip to Paraguay to
study the pest. He had been supplied
with all sorts of remedies, among them
"naphthalene," an article of no value
whatever AGAINST the pest; but on US
ing it for mosquito bites, he found it of
surprising effect. 1t neutralizes the
poison, even when the spot bitten is
greatly inflamed. If fresh bites are
rubbed with naphthalene, no swelling
follows. The professor consider naph-
thalene almost a specific against mos
quito poison. The visitor to the ISL
ands will bless the name of DR.. Woes,
should this prove true. One of the
annoyances to a new conner is the mos
quito bite which leaves such a blotch
upon the face and hands. To the Ka-
maaina the mosquito may be annoy
ing. but it leaves no mark. The drug
stores ought to do a trade in "naptha-
lene." No charge is made for the idea

CHICKS IN SUMNER.
Unless They Are Penned Up II IL Al.
most Impossible to Make Rais-
ing Them Profitable. >

The farmers wife knows the great
loss from weakness and dying among
her chicks during the hot summer
months. That has always been the
case with our summer chickens, in fact
we could raise so few of them that we
have gradually dropped chicken hatch-
ing after May until late summer or
early fall. While there is as much
money in summer Matched chickens as
any other, we could not make sue
cess of raising them. But last summer
we had pen Of thoroughbreds, and
wishing to raise as many as possible,
we continued Matching as fast as we
could get the eggs for setting. The
chickens were given the usual free
dom of the farm and took the usual
privilege Of dying. Then we de-
termined to try penning them up. The
old hens were all driven into yard
containing about oue-sixth of an acre
and confined there.
Each hen (and her chicks) was fur
nished with small coop, and they
were kept in the yard, which was de-
void of all vegetation. Green stun
was thrown in to them every day, and
cool, shady retreats furnished them,
but there were no weeds or grass for
them to wander about in. They ceased
dying Immediately and grew as rapid
ly and as finely as the spring chickens.
They were much easier to care for.
There was no running about all over
the farm when a storm was seen gath
ering. There was no clucking biddy
coming in from the orchard or meadow
late in the evening with half her brood
missing, either because of the hens
carelessness or the result of some
tragedy. In fact so well pleased were
we with the result that this season we
win have our chicken pen and have no
little chickens wandering all over the
farm gathering chiggers and getting
weakening baths of dew from the
grass and weeds. We believe it will
pay. L. Irwin, in Ohio Farmer.

disinfecting bath, or, as 1t is termed,
to "dip" them. Dipping" infected
cattle into saturated solution of sui
phur in extra dynamo oil will destroy
all parasites.
Recently the Fort Worth Stock
Yards company built n large dipping
plant and placed it at the disposal of
the bureau of animal industry, where
the first demonstrations have been
carried out. One of the problems in
regard to the bath was to find. n
irritating and heating effect upon the
cattle. For this purpose a number of
samples of various lubricating oils
were examined, and one of light spe-
chic gravity, called extra dynamo, was
selected.
A train load Of 81 cattle was
dipped in a large vat of the stock
yard in July last. These cattle were
raised and bred in Texas, and were
infested with Texas fever parasites
at the time of the dipping. The
weather, which had been remarka bly,
cool up to this time, suddenly changed
TO intense heat, and, it being desir-
able not to expose the cattle to the
SIN Immediately after the dipping,
1hey were not passed through the vat
0ntil after sunset. by IL o'clock at
night all had gone through without
a single accident, and they were at
once loaded on clean ears, bedded
with hay and shipped to Rockford. Ill.
OF the 311 cattle all save four ar
rived in good condition at their des-
tination. The casualties were princi-
pally caused by extreme heat during
the first day of travel and the con-
finement incident to shipment. 4
careful examination showed that not
single parasite had survived. Most
of the cattle showed absolutely no
indications of having been dipped. the
akin being soft and flexible in all
cases.-N. Y. Herald.

FEEDING SOAKED CORN.
when Comb ined with Good Pnsturage
IL Affords nm Ideal summer
Ration for Pigs.

There appears to be quite differ
ence in the opinions of breeders in re-
gard to feeding soaked corn to the
spring pigs during the summer time
when running on the pasture and at
a time when the old corn is hard and
sometimes difficult for young pigs to
eat. 1 have decided preference for
soaked corn, getting the best growth
and better results than from feeding
the dry corn. My plan is as follows: !
get two barrels that will hold water,
and then pour in one the quantity of
corn that wish the pigs to eat during
the next SO hours time, then add to
the corn clean water until il is covered
some three inches, leaving it to soak
for SO hours. then commence feeding
from the first barrel. and at the same
time I'LL the second barrel, which will
be ready to commence on when the
first is fed out. After the first is fed
out, clean the barrel and fill it as be-
fore. This is a clean, easy digested.
wholesome food. The corn has lost
nothing by the operation, only the
heated or burning feature of il, which
is injurious to all young, growing
stock when fed to any extent. You
can feed this kind of food without
danger of splashing II over you, which
is not the, case with slop made from
mill feeds, which not only gets on
your clothes, but the pigs as well in
feeding. This manner of feeding will
make rapid growth, and when on good
pasture complete ration.-J. G. True

Carrollton, Ca. June s.-The nerve
of Georgia sheriff, whose name is
Joseph Merrill, Friday upheld the law
of the state and saved the life of q
negro from a mob. In protecting the
negro, who was saved from the gal
lows only a few hours before through
the efforts of his lawyers, one life
was lost and two men were wounded.
The arrival of the state militia avert
ed threatened trouble Friday night,
and at nine o'clock special train

the murder of little white boy
whom he found fishing alone, was
speeding towards Atlanta under
guard. The man killed in attacking
the Jail was George Bennett, of Car

YclIow and White Corn.

Corn of strong vitality will sprout
in from "a to SO hours under proper
conditions of moisture and tempera-
ture. Yellow corn will sprout much
sooner than white corn under iden-
teal conditions. This fact is not well
understood, but several reasons may
be given by way of explanation: Ow-
ing to differences in chemical COM
position, yellow corn under condi-
tions favorable to termination may
Weld more readily to the action of
moisture and heat than white corn.
1t also is known among corn grow
ers that yellow corns are usually
slightly richer in oil and protein than
white corns, and have proportionate-
ly larger germs; and where these con-
ditions obtain the yellow corns are
expected to terminate somewhat
auicker.-Nationa Rural.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Fifty birds kept well are more prof
liable than 100 that take care OF
themselves.
The hen of medium size for the
breed is usually the best layer She
is of active disposition, with healthy
red color in comb and wattles, and
has good appetite. BY watchfulness
you can select such hens, and If you
will keep only them as breeders you
can work your flock up to high
standard.
vigor and egg production are the
points any farmer not up to all the
requirements of the fancier can al
ways appreciate, and these he can
have by judicious selection among
the hens and never keeping cock
that is not purely bred and of the
breed that has first been employed in
the improvement of the flock. 1t is

To the Editor:
A gentleman from Duluth made a
trip through portion of Western
Canada last summer, and writing of
what he saw, says: Ys
wheat, for instance, will average
twenty-five or thirty bushels to the
acre. i saw shocks so thick in the
field that it would be almost impossi-
BILE to drive between them. Winters,
1t is said, are longer than near Duluth,

winds and dry atmosphere make the
winters comparatively mild"
