and other places Of public re-
sort. The objectionable ma
ture of this practice on grounds
Of ordinary cleanliness need
Enot be emphasized. It becomes
painfully obvius to all who tra-
vel by public conveyances and
who some day or other have
the misfortune to be to wind
ward of the careless expectora-
tor Of the omnibus top.
Nor need we lay stress upon
the serious import as means
of spreading tuberculous infec-
ton that indiscriminate expec-
toration bears in public places.
Our readers are well aware
that, whatever may be the re-
suit of the commission inquir-
ing into the power of infected
food to spread tubercle among
us there is no doubt in the
mind of any authority upon
the subject that the most for
midable vehicle of infection of
all is the sputum of tubercul-
Gus persons.
The whole question is really
one of educating the public.
It is not essential to anybody's
comfort or safety that he
expectorate freely into the air
or on the ground about him.
When all his fellow men and
women realize this they will ia
boo the indiscriminate expecta-
tor. At present his perfor-
nance is regarded largely as a
matter of course. The work
ing man or woman by his side
knows nothing of the possible
danger and is not yet nice
enough to deplore the nasti-
ness Of the casual expectora-
ton Of neighbor. Our medi-
cal readers can more than any
other class Of men assist pub
lie bodies in the education of
the public mind in this matter.

Compared With Gas Engines as Mo-
tive Power For Grinding Feed.
Professor King of the Wisconsin sta
ton has made a study Of the effective
ness of the various feed mills found Oh
the market when driven by windnlills
and gas engines and Of the cost OF
grinding feed With one of the most
effective combinations of windmill and
feed mill the rate of grinding was
"about twenty-five bushels per hour
with wind velocity of 31.S miles, the
meal being little coarser than medi.
um.'' Corn and oats were ground at
the rate of 41O.3 pounds per hour with
the wind at 26.4S miles. With wind
velocity Of 2667 miles oats were
ground at the rate of about SO bushels
per hour and rye at the rate of 1885
bushels with the wind at 25.35 miles.
The rye was ground a little finer than
medium and the oats little coarser."
Under Wisconsin conditions there are
on the average from Oct. to May of
each year "eighty-seven days when q
man could attend the mill and grind
ten hours with a wind velocity of not
less than fifteen miles per hour and
much of the time higher than this. He
should therefore be able to grind more
than forty-six bushels per day and on
the average more than 100 bushels per
week. The eighty-seven grinding days
during the seven months place the
grinding days On the average more
| than two per week, and II it is sup
! posed that this is twice too high 1t
would still be possible on the average
| to take advantage Of high winds dur
| ing the working hours and grind about
| fifty bushels of corn, or $500 pounds.
| per week. Counting the mans time
who tends the mill at 81 per day. the
cost Of grinding would be only about
3la cents per hundredweight.
When gas engines were used as the
motive power. the average amount Of
corn ground per horsepower per hour
was 1892 bushels. equal to go pounds. =
at a cost of about 1.3 cents per hun
| dredweight for fuel, with gas costing
| S125 per 1000 feet.
/ 1t Is estimated that at the rates or
dinarify paid the grinding Of feed for
thirty cows for 200 days amounts to
about S57 The same amount of feed
may be ground with five horsepower
engine under the conditions obtaining
in these trials for about $3.50. Fifty
seven dollars zig 10 per cent interest
ON much larger SUM than would be
required to it up an automatic grind.
Ing plant with the twelve foot wind
mill. the price Of the mill and ninety
foot tower being S16O. and the capacity
Of such grinding plant would be

corsets Cause Excitement.

A pair of corsets were the innocent
cause of much excitement in Bloom
field, N. J., the other day. During q
violent storm a ball of fire was seen
to descend on the roof of a fruit store,
and few moments later the rooms in
the establishment were filed with
smoke. Firemen were summoned to
make an investigation before an alarm
was sent in. They hunted high and
low, but could find no fire. The
smoke grew denser and finally one of
the firemen found pair of corsets
that had been placed in the stovepipe
for safekeeping.

Clever Mrs. Humminq Bird.

An American author relates the fol-
lowing charming anecdote of the beau
tiful little humming bird: I'm front of
a window where l worked last sum-
mer was a butternut tree. A hum
ming bird built her nest on a limb that
grew near the window, and we had an
opportunity to watch her closely. We
could look right into the nest. One
day when there was a heavy shower
coming. we thought we would see if
she covered her young during the
rain. When the first drops fell she
came and took in her bill one of two
or three large leaves growing close by,
and laid this leaf over the nest, SO
as to cover it completely. Then she
flew away. On examining the leaf we
found a hole in it, and in the side of
the nest was a small stick that the
leaf was fastened to or hooked upon.
After the storm was over the old bird
came back and unlocked the leaf, and
the nest was perfectly dry.

Plumage of Sea Birds.

Why are sea birds white, is q ques-
ton that is often asked. Many learned
men have attempted to solve the prob
lem and among the reasons they have
given is the one that enemies which
prey upon birds of white plumage at
sea are very few, and SO those birds
have escaped and have increased in
numbers. Then, too, it's said that the
fishes and other creatures of the sea
upon which sea birds live can see
their enemies best when they have
black coats, and thus escape them.
White plumaged birds usually have,
however, some few black markin gs,
either on their wings or tails, which
serve as a badge by which they may
be recognized by their friends. Thus
the young birds can easily detect their
mother while out ON the water and
follow her to the places where food
can be secured. The cOlorS of sea birds
correspond with those of the fishes on
which they feed. Most fishes are dark
above and light beneath, this arrange
ment of color helping them to escape
OLE ere alton. 1t is, no doubt, an ad-
vantage to the birds to have their
white feathers turned seward, so that
they may be less easily seen by the
fishes they are in search of. Eagles,
which have taken to fishing, are col
Cred like the other sea fowls, instead
of being like their relatives who feed
upon land creatures.

Watterson Mould ScuttIe.

Henry Watterson is now a "scuttler."
Next to Edward Atkinson and Brother
Bryan, he is at the head of the pro-
cession of those who would get out OF
the Philippines. Not long since no
was whooping it up to stay He
would have American ideas and civflf-
zation go hand in hand to redeem the
natives from the bondage of barbar-
ism. He Endorsed the Mckinley pol
icy, and went even further than Nc
kinley in urging that the flag be kep
flying. He was Enthusiastically elO-
quent in his patriotism and enthus-
iasm, and the attitude he struck was
admirably suited to his figure and rec
ord. But now he thinks we ought to
get out, and not be particular as to
the method either. He would have
us find a small hole somewhere and
crawl through it. Mr.. Watterson is
apparently trying to get in line for
what Democratic national convention
will declare for. 1t is not principle
with him this time nearly as much as
it is expediency.-Grand Rapids Her

Clock Run by a eeyser.

A curious clock is described as hav-
ing been recently put into commission
in a small western town. The machin-
cry, which is nothing but face, hands
and lever, is connected with a geyser,
which shoots a column of hot water
every thirty-eight seconds. This spout
ing never varies to the tenth of a sec
ond. Every time the water spouts up
it strikes the lever and moves the
hands forward thirty-eight seconds.
