To the Editor of the Dispatch:
There is no sickness here now and
at the present there is not more
heslthful town in the State.
This has been q successful year
for the farmers of this section. The
weather has been ideal for ha rvest-

TIE delay of the railroad authori-

built for himself neat cottage next

Fruit Seeds and Appendicitis.

Many very intelligent people are de
TERED from swallowing the seed of Der
ries, grapes and other fruits lest the
Judgment of these small bits of indiges-
tibleness may induce that dreaded acci.
dent appendicitis. This fear is utterly
baseless. since the healthy appendix is
protected by a valvular arrangement
which prevents wen the smallest seeds
from entering it. 1t is only after in
1ammatiOn has already destroyed its
normal protection that any foreign sub,
stance can gain access to it. To feel
compelled to eschew all seedy berries
and fruits is to seriously curtail ones
dietary, and it is entirely Unnecessary
In fact, the free and constant use of
ripe berries and fruits of all kinds is
n of the best ~preventives of this dan
gerous disease. Fruit eating prevents
or helps to overcome constipation. and
constipation is the most prolific cause
of appendicitis. The physician should
thoroughly disabuse his patients of this
mistaken notion. Al. the smooth seeds
are harmless.-Hygienic Gazette.

Wisner and Quinton of Wash

animation of the United States

weeks ago and in company with
City Engineer Reed and party
have been Investigating the

They gave nothing out for
publication, but will make a re-

however, that they will report

proposition, Judging from the
conversations they have had
with several of our citizens.
Mr.. Wlsner left Thursday for

Miss NaUdo Valerie White. author Of
numerous popular songs, has told a

A
Planets and Suns Mny Pick Up Minor
Solar ROdieA.

Solar bodies.
Jupiter is much the biggest member
of the family of stars which revolve
around our sun; consequently the pow
er of his attraction is greater than that
possessed. for instance, by the earth.
Jupiter's exploits as a burglar have
caused very considerable annoyance
and inconvenience to astronomers in
the days before his powers were fully
recognized.
In ITO there appeared n fine comet,
which was found to have an elliptical
orbit round the sun of so comparatively
small a size that Mr.. LeXell. its discov-
erer, calculated it would return in five
and a half years, but in 1775 telescopes
were vainly focused on the spot where
it was expected to reappear. and again
in 1871 it disappointed all observers.
Mr.. LeXell plunged into fresh c~alcula-
tions and after much research found
that Jupiter was the culprit. The I'M
fortunate comet had been rash enough
to plunge into the sphere of the giant
planets attraction, with the result that
it had been completely diverted from
It's former orbit and flung off into quite
a different IN of Il twenty year period.
1t has never been seen again by any
n on this earth and probably never
will be.
Jupiter was also responsible for the
delay which occurred in the return Of
that splendid visitant known as Hal
ley's comet. HALEY found that he was
not the first d~isCoverer of this big COM
ct. It had appeared It least twice pre-
viOusly. once seventy five years before
and again seventy-siX years before that.
The astronomer concluded that thcrc
would be a further delay in its third
return and predicted that its next gp.
pearance would be 51S days later. lie
did not live to see it. But in hos. the
year he had Prophosicd for its reap
p]earance, astronomers were waiting
for it.

GraSshoppers.

State Entomologist +. T. Wash
burn has issued a brief abstract of the
new law passed by the legislature for
the destruction Of grasshoppers. The
4 law provides that the board Of coun-
sty commissioners may hear COM
plants against fields said to be infest-
ed with grasshoppers' eggs. Unless
tn complaint is accompanied by q
certificate of the state entomologist,
the commissioners shall refer the
matter to that official before taking
any definite action. The person MAX
ing the complaint is also directed to
serve notice upon the owner or les
see OF the land, ten days prior to the
meeting of the commissioners, tell
ing that he is going to make the COM
plant.
If convinced after hearing the COM
plant that the land is infested the
commissioners may declare it a pub
lie nuisance and order the field plow-
ed. If the owner. or lessee of the land
refuses to pillow it, he may be prose
cuted for maintaining a public NUS
ance, and the field shall be plowed
at the expense of the county. If
the blowing of the field should be of
value to the owner, coming just be-
fore the season for planting crops the
county has the right to collect from
his the cost of the blowing.
