In Anna, Illinois local physi-
icians have made the startling
discovery that the spread of small
pox in this district is due largely
to cats. More than score of cats
have been found suffering with
the disease, and they have been
going from house to house with
out their affection being suspected,
The discovery was made accident
ally, and as a result nearly every
cat in the city has been killed.
Smallpox prevails to such an ex-
tent that all the schools are closed
in the place and vicinity, and
church services are suspended.

Two very important crops were
short last year, but this circnm
stance. fortunately for the farmer,
did not cut down his revenues.
The 1900 wheat crop was 522, 229,
sos bushels, while that OF 1929
was 25,000,000 bushels more. The
average farm price of wheat, how
ever, while the 1900 crop was NOV
ing higher than in 1899. This
not ONLY saved the farmer, but en-
a5led him to sell his smaller
wheat crop of 1900 for 100000
more than he received for his
wheat crop of 1899. "a.
The hay crop of 1900 was also
short being the smallest with q
single exception since 1888, YET
the average price was $3.50 pei
ton, compared with $7.27 per sor
in 1899, so that the value of the
1900 hay crop was SAG, 538,878, OF
$500; 600 more than that of the
larger crop of the preceding year
Corn and oats were unusually
bounteous crops. On the corn
crop the farmers realized $l22, 0OO,'
600 more than in 1899. The total
vnlue of the eight staple farm pro
ducts in 1900 was 81, 1851, 467 ,582-

The California Legislature has
enacted law prohibiting the re-
quirement of home study by pu-
pills in the grammar schools. This
action was taken after experiment
in the schools of San Francisco
which showed that pupils who are
permitted to leave their school
cares behind them when
the day closed make az
much, and in some instances tai
more progress, than the Spupilf
who are compelled to take their
tasks to their homes and devote
to them the time which nature re-
q uires for rest and recreation
Several years ago the Milwaukee
school board endeavored to abol-
ish home study, but the reform
was prevented by the so.ca]led
progress consists in piling on fads
and driving the poor children and
the overworked teachers to the
point: Of nervous exhaustion. =. The
results for the experiment in San
Francisco bear out the arguments
which we're advanced in M !: i:
kee by the no-home- study section
of the school board, and are also
in line with observations in regard
to the academic work Of the pu:
pills who secure recreation through
physical application in the man
ual training departments OF the
high schools. The pupils of gram
mar schools are overburdened with
studies, and if school boards had
courage they would prohibit home
studies and also train the course
of study. milwaukee Evening

The Chicago Record-Herald
has been making some inquiry
into the effect of vaccination as a
preventative of small pox, and
finds that in the recent epidemic
in that city tt was entirely in
favor of vaccination. The sum-
mary of it's findings is as follows;
Out of the total III cases OF
small pox found in Chicago, be-
tween Nov. 30, 1900, aud Apil 10,
l901-the period of the: present
epidemic-l40 had never been
vaccinated, OF the remaining 81
cases, 20 were adults showing faint
poor or irregular scars, claimed
to be evidence Of attempted vacci-
nation in infancy or early child
hood, the most recent being %
years old. Only 2 out of the III
cases exhibited typical scars OF
successful vaccination. OF these
one was thirty-6ve years old,
"vaccinated when a child;" revac-
cination attempted three years
ago, without result; vaccine lymph
probably inert. The other was
forty years old, also successfully
vaccinated in childhood but never
revaccinated.}2, These are the .onl y
two cases out Of the total III
upon whom vaccination was ever
successfully attempt d, and the
most recent of these was; more
than thirty years ago.
The Record-Herald further
adds that since vaccination has
been made compulsory in the
schools Of that !, city smallpox has
has disappeared from them. Fol
twenty years the schools of Chi
caeo have been immune from
smallpox cases. Another sienifi-
cant fact which it gives IS that
since vaccination has BEEN = re-
quirement. on the Chicago: police
force the officers have been free
faom smallpox, although they. &c
everywhere and into all haunts oi
crime and disease. -.
This summary of the Record.
Herald agrees With a report which
the Free Press noticed a few days
ago in some of the towns of the
towns of the northwest, in which
of over one hundred known ex-
posures of persons who had been
recently vaccinated, or were vac
cinated Immediately after expos
ure, not one had the disease, while
of some twenty or more smallpox
patients, not one had been yaccin-
ated, or at least not since their
