CHOLERA STILL SPREADING
Officials in the Philippines Unable to
Check the Plague.

San Francisco, Sept. "a bounti-
full downpour of rain is the only rem
edy which will check the cholera cpl
demic now raging in the Philippines"
So said Captain E. H. Southall, sur
geon in the United States army. who
has arrived here on the transport Blu
ford. Captain Southall was for a time
in charge of the cholera hospital in
Manila. In speaking of the epidemic
Captain Southall said:
1.-The Americans in the Philippines
seem unable to cope with the cholera.
Despite the rigorous methods used to
suppress it the disease seems to spread
and increase 1t is very difficult to get
correct figures of the mortality due to
cholera because of the fact that the
natives hide the dead and try to keep
knowledge of the presence of the dis
ease from the authorities"

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Wells For Tile bitches

Among the most essential things in
the construction of tile bitches Is
good outlet. A ditch may be dug and
tiled all right and do the work for
which it was made all right for short
time, and then it begins to fail, and
when investigation is made to find the
cause nine times out of ten it is found
that the tiles have filed up for some
distance. This is frequently caused by
hogs and other stock. Now, this can
be better prevented than remedied.
Dig a well at the mouth five or six
and wall it with two inch lumber. Cut
a hole for the tile and let the tile pro-
ject few inches in the box, or well.
Cut space on the lower side of the
box for overflow Now you have your
tile where you can go any time and
see if all is right. Nothing can enter
the tile to choke it. Clean the mud,
keep it below the tile. This can gen.
orally be done during dry times. More
than one ditch can be emptied into one
we'll all right. We have a ditch and
well constructed on this plan, and over
300 rods of tile empty into the well,
and we expect to run another ditch in
to the same well. This is not an eX
pensive arrangement, and we would
recommend it highly. We consider
this one of the best things we ever
learned in connection with farming
and expect to adopt this plan until we
have found something better.-W. T.

The purity of paris green can be
quite readily and fairly accurately
tested by dissolving it in strong am
monia water. If pure, all of the paris
green will dissolve, the solution turn
ing deep blue color. Undissolved
sediment indicates impurities or adul-
teration. Another test is to place
little of the paris green between two
pieces of window glass and rub them
together If adulterated with lime,
barium sulphate or similar white ma
terials, it will appear, to turn white in
places Paris green of good quality is
intensely bright green and uniform.
When adulterated, the green loses
something of it's intensity and is gray

August is counted one of the hardest
months on the celery, and during this
month the plants are apt to become
stunted and dwarfed in their growth.
To prevent this the Maryland station
recommends mulching with well rotted
stable manure or straw manure or
clean straw early in the season. or,
if water can be had conveniently, the
plantation should be watered frequent
ly and kept well cultivated after each
application of water.

To Retard Blooming,

The best way to retard blooming of
fruit trees in spring is to scrape away
the soil and expose the roots as much
as possible to the cool air of the early
season. This is adapted to the south
only. In the north an opposite plan is
required, and the trees should be heav-
lily mulched to prevent early warming
of the soil.-Farm and Ranch.

suggests that eight companies of in

be directed against hOstiles, several OF
yhom are enumerated in General Chat
