oosT OF NEGLIGENCE.

HE FEARFUL RISK involved in all
lowing the water supply Of a city
to become contaminated is illustrated
in the case Of Butler. Pa. In this little
city Of only 1900 inhabitants there are
], 500 cases Of typhoid fever That is.
more than one in ten Of the people of
Butler have been stricken with typhoid.
The fatalities have not been very nu-
merous. about per cent, but it IS
feared that this percentage viii in
crease as the days go by because the
later Sufferers cannot possibly secure
the careful treatment they should re-
ceive.
One doctor alone was attempting TO
take care of siXty-fve typhoid patients
until he himself was stricken. Another
is now looking after, OF trying to look
after. sixty patients. The strain on the
physicians is evidenced by the fact
that six Of them are down with typhoid
as a direct result Of anxiety and over
work HOW did the epidemic become
possibleg That is the question asked
by the Pennsylvania state board Of
health. and it was quickly answered
The town Of Butler draws its water
supply from a number Of email streams
that run down from the hills nearby,
converging before they reach the NUM-
cipal waterworks. An investigation re-
suited IN the disclosure OF two severe
cases OF typhoid on as many Of the lit
tie streams referred to. Excreta from
the patients was so disposed of that il
could not fail to get into the streams
and 50 The entire supply was polluted
a little vigilance on the part Of the
health authorities might have prevent
cd the outbreak, would. indeed. almost
surely have prevented #.
Now see what the lack Of vigilance
has cost the town OF Butler Let us
leave out Of the question all the grief
for the dead. an the mental torture. the
anxiety the distress. let US figure the
cost in sordid dollars. which appeal so
surely To- city authorities. 1t is a very
low estimate to place the cost OF a
spell ~ typhoid fever at 800. SO much
viii be spent for medicine and for doe
tors bills. At sl00 per patient the ty-
phoid epidemic has cost Butler $3.50, OO0.
If the lost time. the destruction Of earn
ing capacity were figured in. and It
should be figured in, the cost would
approximate 100000 easily enough.

Dear College DAYS.

This is a tale of college not more
than a million miles away The college
boy and the college president who fig
IRE in the story are still alive and
hearty. So no names go. The boy was
youth with an Inheritance which, for
tuuately for the inheritance. came TO
him in monthly installments sufficiently
large TO keep the wolf from his door.
but not large enough to suit his de-
mands. Like other college boys with
Inheritance. this youth had habits
among which was rot the habit Of at
tending classes. He was one warm
number at every turn Of the road and
had he not BEEN checked in his mad
career would have demoralized that
school for the year. The good old pres
ident Of the college took q fatheriy in
terest in the lad. who was a bright.
lOvable youth, and tried to secure re-
suits through moral suasiOn. Moral
suasiOn lost. Then the president took
another tack. He sent word 10 the
youth that he would like tossee him at
the office. NOW what" specUlated the
youth, Edo YOU suppose this old billy

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

High and gravelly soil is the best for
fruit trees.
Mildew 10 the worst enemy of the
gooseberry. Pruning is the best rem
edy.
Rosin and tallow in equal parts is
an excellent covering for wounds in
fruit and other trees.
To cultivate among trees use a Whit
f1etree as short as the horse can walk
with. Turn the hooks in.
The weeds must be kept down around
the small fruit trees and vines If the
fruit is to mature and ripen rightly.
Look over the orchard occasionally
to see that no suckers are growing from
the roots Of the trees to sap the strength
from the main tree.
Plants in windows should be turned
once or twice week. A fine form.
which is half the beauty Of plant
cannot be attained without this.
Wood ashes not only help to keep
borers from the roots Of trees. but the
trees make healthier and more vigor
GUS growth and bear much sounde,
fruit when they are used.

man

The fat cattle market was nominally
steady with little of any consequence
on sails. Hogs sold a little stronger
anc the sheep market was quotably
unchanged.
The fat cattle market is pretty much
the same as a week ago. During the
first half of last week, although the
trade was more or less dull and drag
ging, prices were gradually firming
until Thursday there had been close to
a 10 q 15c advance on desirable
beeves. There did not appear to be
any urgency to the demand from any
quarter, and IN Friday. with only a
a dime on the general run of beef
steers and completely wiped out the
advance of the first half of the week.
Dressed beef men complain Of the
unsatisfactory condition of the beef
market. and with their coolers full

have been. Good to choice 1850 to

], 400-fb beeves at $4.75 a 4.95; fair
1000 to 1,300-fb beeves $3.50 q 4.70.
and common to fair-warmed up and
part fat grades around $ AS a 4.40,
and from that down.
There were no fresh receipts Of
sheep and nothing to make a market
for several DAYS. the conditions were
as noted. that is. slow and weak, with
a downward tendency. The market is
now fully s1.OO q $50 lower than
it was at the high time. Choice fat
lambs, perhaps, are not as much as
81 90 lower, but if not they are close
to it.
The following are the average quo
tations: Good to choice wooded
lambs, So rs q 6.75; good to choice
clipped lambs, $40 q 600; fair to
