made ct the recent sanitary conference
Of American republics held at Wash
ington. He declared that laziness- and
especially peculiar form of laziness to
be found in certain sections Of the
southern states-is disease the germ
Of which, he says, he has discovered.
DR.. Stiles states that this disease is in
large measure responsible for the poor
white" districts of the south and indi-
rectly responsible for the conditions
which have resulted in the crusade
against child labor in the southern cot
ton mills. The presence of the disease
tn the south HIS in the last ten years
resulted in the inferior physical devel-
opment and mental power Of persons
affected by it and is the real cause Of
the ''crackCrs" proverbia! laZiness The
crusade against child labor in factories
at the south Was due Indirectly to the
general pressure OF this disease and he
states that children from the rural dis
tricts after working ino the mills be-
come generally greatly improved by
reason of the improved sanitary .condi-
tons in the cities and the better facili-
ties for the cure OF the disease.
The name Of the disease is uncinari-
asis. 1t produces a condition the symp-
toms OF which arc not unlike those Of
continued malaria. According to DR..
Stiles, the disease has been diagnosed
and is susceptible Of cure. The trouble,
says he, is to identify it and to pre-
scribe the proper remedies.
One OF the symptoms is that the dis
ease stimulates an appetite for differ
ent things in individual cases. The
dirt eatcrs.'' says DR.. Stiles, "all suf-
fer from this craving. The disease is
due not, as some physicians state, to
the habit of eating dirt, but that con-
versely the habit is due to the disease"
DR.. Stiles investigations and findings
furnish :;n interesting contribution to
the recent discoveries respecting health
and sanitation, and it is to be hoped
that information concerning the NAL
ady will be spread broadcast through
out sections of the world in which the
disease is common. II DR.. Stiles can

u bulletin No 81 Of the Montana
experiment station Director s. Fortier
gives q Concise descript ion, easily made
available BY farmers for practical use,
Of one method Of measuring water.
Among other things Professor Fortier
says: For occasional measurements the
earthen channel Of ditch or canal an
swefs all purposes, but. when more ac-
curate and continuous measurements
are desired rating fumes are usually
constructed. These consist of wooden
fumes as wide as the water channel
and from eight to twenty four feet in
length. placed to conform with the
grade Of the canal. The velocity OF the
water is found by a current meter,
and the depth of water is often record
ed on sheet attached to self regis
tering machine which needs attention
only every seventh day.
A weir box usually consists of Il
f1ume with the lower end Enclosed. In
the middle of the top Of the lower end
q notch is cut, through which the wa
ter to be measured flows. Weirs re-
quire no instruments other than a foot
rule. They are easily and cheaply
made and measure flowing water
within per cent Of accuracy when all
the requisite conditions are fulfilled.
Wen boxes as compared With miners
inch boxes are more accurate can be
built for the same if not for less money
and can be used to measure much lar
ger volumes. The chief defects of this
device are that the box often fills with
sediment, which must be removed, and
that the water as it issues from the
notch requires a drop Of at least dou-
BILE the depth of water flowing through
the notch.
For nearly half a century western
irrigators have tried to devise way
by which water might be measured as
it flows through a headgate. They hoped
to make one structure answer two pur-
poses. In this they have failed for the
reason that water is 50 much agitated
and so irregular in flow as it passes
through headgate as to render it i'm
possible to secure an accurate meas
urement. Of late years, measuring box
