MOSQUITOES AND DENGUE.

The Stars impression that the re-
sponsibiIity of the mosquito for spread
ing the dengue fever has not been
proven, fails to take account of the
facts submitted by DR.. Mays in a letter
to the Advertiser of June y last. We
quote:
Editor Advertiser: In your editorial
columns this morning is an enquiry as
to how dengue is spread. The disease IS
undoubtedly propagated by the mos
quito.
The careful and elaborate expert
ments of DR.. Graham, Professor OF
Pathology in the American College OF
Beyrout, Syria, where dengue was
very prevalent last year, have estaD-
Iished this fact beyond reasonable
doubt DR.. Graham obtained the SER
vices of three strong young men VINO
had not had the disease, and who, for
a fee of five dollars each, were willing
to run the risk of a weeks sickness
from dengue He then took mosquitoes
from the inside of the netting of man
already sick with the dengUe, and put
them inside the MEETINGS under whlch
each of the three candidates for the
disease slept No visitors were allow
ed, and the utmost precaution was tax
en- against possible contagion from oth-
er sources The results would seem to
be convincing enough. Within five days
after the infected mosquitoes were put
in, each of the three men had broken
out with a typical case of dengue.
To make sure that local influences
had nothing to do with the spread of
the disease, Dr. Graham repeated this
experiment in a mountain village above
Beyrout. $500 feet high, where dengue
had never appeared. After thoroughly
disinfecting himself and changing his
clothes, he carried up to the village, In
a pasteboard box, some mosquitoes
from under a dengue patients netting. |
Some obliging young villagers were
again found ready, at five dollars
head, to promote the cause of science.
The infected mosquitoes were placed
under the mems nettings as before, and
within six days they were each seized
with the disease.
These experiments, which were made
in the early part OF last year, have been
confirmed by other Investigations, so
that it may be taken as proven that
the contagion of dengue is conveyed
through the bite of the mosquito, and
in no other way.
Assuming that DR.. Mays is right in
the disease as dengue-and
SO eminent a practitioner is not likely
to be wrong in plain matter of medi-
cal record-the relation between den
que and the mosquito seems clear.
Hence the way to fight the prevail
ing malady is to clean up about private
homes and public buildings, allow no
dead water to collect, and put coal oil
on the stagnant ponds. We are told
that one barrel of crude oil to an acre
Of water will do the business and not
hurt the taro or rice.

ALGARoBA 6RIsT FOR STOCK.

Paul Isenberg's idea of working up
algeroba beans into ground feed, as a
substitute for imported forage OF much
higher price and inferior worth, seems
to be entirely practical. The Agricul-
tural Department of the United States
declares that the bean reduced to a
flour or grist is the most nourishing
food for cattle it has yet found. That
being true IL follows that Hawaii has
very little call to import forage in
anything like the quantities now
stored. Ali that is necessary is to
gather the beans and grind them.
whereupon they are ready for use.
1t is not enough to feed the beans
in their natural state, though cattle
thrive on them as they are. While
the pod is nutritious. the best part.
that which will make the most beef
and milk, in cows and put horses in
the best condition is neither chewed up
nor digested by the stock. To get all
the algaroba has to offer. the inner
tough pulp and hard seeds must be
thoroughly ground with the pod, and
then the perfect forage is produced.
Mr.. Isenberg intends, as we under
stand it, to buy all the beans in sight,
dry and grind them and put them on
the local market. That means a new
industry, lower prices, keeping money
at home and better fed stock. Sue
cess for such an undertaking will be
well-deserved.

THE HEARST PARTY
Probability That the Tour of the
 Territories Will Be Made.

There is possibility amounting al most to q probability that the Hearst party will visit the territories after all notwithstanding the announcement Of day before yesterday that the trip would likely be indefinitely postponed. Col. Wilson was not disposed to give it up and carried on a further cores pondenoe with Max IhUsen. manager Of the proposed party and q member O: the New York American staff. Yes terday Col. Wilson received the follow ing telegram from MT. Ihmsen:
 We think the presence of David De Armond of the utmost value to the statehood matter. He is disposed to go and your folks to him at Butler, Mo. will probably determine the matter. In that event the train will leave Chicago or October II.

 Col. Wilson arrived in the city last night. He has wired Mr. De ArmOnd and he and Governor Brodie will spare no effort to make up the party. Col. Wilson said last night that he believed that it would be possible to get ten congressman together for the tour of the territories. MT. Hearst is now on his way east from California. In tine event that tie expedition is made up he will join it at Chicago.
 If this arrangement can be carried out the trip will be made according to the original schedule and the party will arrive at Phoenix about the 2Gth

The Brisley Drug Co. in the Hotel Adams has q window display that is attracting attention and that is bound to create interest as the days go by Ii is a display of "Liquozone," new remedy for the cure of germ diseases, and if the subject is one that appeals to the reader he can learn more about it by consulting the advertisement that appears in another place in this paper and still more by applying at the Bris ley drug store. It is a comparatively new remedy. but is the result of twen- ty years of patient laboratory work by a German chemist.

HOLIDAY STAKE RACES
One Stake Filled, Other Classes To Be
 Formed Later.

Mention was made recently Of the second annual holiday stake race meet ing to be held at the Phoenix Driving park under the association rules For some reason, no doubt negligence on the part of horse owners. only one stake was filled by entries and that is the three minute trot
 For the three minute race stake No. l the following horses are entered Princess McCarty by Dexter Prince, owned by J. C. Adams; Dellnette, by Boydell, owned by A. H. Davidson; ; Jupiter B., by General Beverly, owned by John A. Cole of California; Hart wood. by Ashwood, owned by Woolf Sachs of Tempe; Lady Allen, by John Allen. owned by w. A. Priestly.
 The meeting will occur as previously announced. during the holidays, and later on classes will be made for all eligible horses that are in shape to enter. The stake races last year were n success. and though Manager Wheat was a little disappointed that other stakes were not filled this year he feels sure the classes to be formed will make up the programme for fine meeting.
