ASYLUM INMATES
CONDUCT A FARM
EXPERIMENT IS A SUCCESS.
PATIENTS MAKE GOOD FARMERS
AND ARE IMPROVED By EXERCISE.

DIR. w. r. Drummer, One of the Trus-
tees, Who Has just Returned
From MiIIedEeviIIe, Tells of an
Interesting Experiment Being
Conducted There - Have Raised
More Fruit Than Asylum Could
Use and Trustees Had to Author
lie Superintendent to Sell 1t.
Farm work for the insane is one Of
the cures being tried now in Georgia.
DR.. W. F. Drummer. the city health
officer, who is one of the trustees of
the State Sanitarium at Milledgeville,
tells of an interesting experiment that
is being made with some of the in
mates of the institution on a farm adj
joining the sanitarium. Not only are
the insane people raising excellent
crops, but the outdoor exercise is
greatly benefting them and in some
cases is effecting a cure.
The experiment has been in progress
only two years now, but it has proven
so successful that DR.. Drummer thinks
it will be extended. There are sixty
five acres in cultivation and more
will probably be added next, year.
Only negroes have worked on the farm
so far, but it is probable that some of
the white patients will be tried later
on.
How They Are Treated.
1T is astonishing to see what they
have DONE" said DR.. Drummer. They
are not required to work and can stop
at any time they want to. But they
take an interest in it. and some of
them have been greatly benefited. 1t
was really an experiment, but it has
proven very successful so far"
So many grapes, peaches and melons
have been raised on the farm. DR..
Drummer says, that the trustees at their
meeting Friday had to authorize Dr..
Powell, the superintendent, to sell
them. The farm is we'll tended and
all the crops are good, DR.. Drummer
said upon his return from Milledge-
vile yesterday morning.
The exercise in the open air does
the patients a great deal of good. Each
of them is told that the farm belongs
to them all together, and that they
must do the best they can with it.
That is all of them. but one. That
particular one thinks he has charge
of the entire affair.
One Man Thinks sHe Is Boss.
THE man complained to the super
intendent that the hands he was
working were worthless. After talk
ing to the superintendent and DR..
Drummer a while, he said he would
have to get back to see that they did
their work properly
Il could do better" he said to DR..
Powell, IF you would let me get rid
of these tritling negroes and hire the
hands myself
DR.. Drummer says the number of
inmates at the asylum has now gone
over 5000. That number was reached
just a few days ago. The number
has increased very rapidly within the
last few years.
The Sanitarium is very economically
conducted, DR.. Drummer says, and he
is high in his praises of DIR. Powell,
the superintendent.
81 have always believed" said DR..
Brunner that no man could fill a
position so well that some one else
could not be secured who would fill
it just as well, or better, but 1 will
have to make an exception in DR..
PowelPs case. I don't believe the man
could be found who could do the work
there so well. 1t is an enormous
task"

VIII Celebrate Occasion by "A SmOk-
er in New Quarters.
1t is now assured that the Board of
Trade will get into its new quarters in
the Germania Bank building Aug. 1
and it is proposed to celebrate the
occasion with some special sort of
entertainment in the nature of a
smoker.
The details of this entertainment
have not yet been completed, but at
least one feature will be the unwilling
of the blackboards by the oldest of
the former secretaries of the organi-
cation.
The members of the Board of Trade
are very much pleased with the idea
of having such an improvement in
their quarters as the new rooms will
possess over the old one.
The committee in charge of the ar
engagements has spared neither time
nor funds in the effort to make the
rooms attractive and the result prom
ises to be all that could be desired.

WORK OF THE SCIENTISTS.
Too Busy to Devote Them.
selves to Original Research.


selves to Original Research.
The American man of science works
in the general laboratory of applica-
ton and assimilation, says the Book
lovers Magazine. The individual and
epoch-making discovery is not usually
made under American conditions. 1t
has not been here that chemistry has
been recognized by the periodic law OF
MendeIejeff, or physics by HelmholtZ'S
conception of the conservation of en-
ergy. The greatest work Of mathe-
Tao ties has not come from Americans,
ind it is not from them Gf we except
the work of Willard and WalcOtt
taken from the conceptions Of the
mathematicians to the concepts of
molecular or chemical physics. Amer
lean physicists last winter seemed to
be principally occupied in describing
to more or less popular audiences what
French and English physicists had ac-
complished in radium and radiant en-
ergy.
The broad, continuous record is
made here in a wide round. So Is the
practical application Of scientific dis
covery made elsewhere; but the initial
discovery, the co-ordinating theory is
not usually American.
Bessemer, a German, discovered the
steel process that bears-his name. En-
glish capital applied it, The United
States makes more than half the
worlds Bessemer. This Is not an in
variable sequence, but it is frequent.
Research in Germany; primary applica-
ton in England; expansion in Amer
lea.
It is in this country, most rife with
the. application Of science but deficient
in original research, that Mr.. Andrew
Carnegie has given to this special work
the largest endowment yet consecrated
to the extension Of the boundaries Of
knowledge. 1t is favorite theory in
American scientific circles that much
discovery is stifed here by the insist
ent claims Of teaching on time and
strength. If this be SO the revenue
escape. If it does not the cause for
the relative absence of discovery must
be looked for in our imperfect elemen-
tary education, which stiles where it
should stimulate and dulls by routine
and mechanical teaching, leaving the
mind unable to profit to the highest by
higher study in succeeding years.

A movement has just been started

OLD TRAIL TO BE MARKED.

Route Over Which Pioneers Reached
the Southwest Will Have Guidcposts.
one Of the most famous routes ira
versed by the early settlers Of the
Southwest was known as the Santa Fe
trail. This has been almost wholly OBJ
liberated Of late years, but the Kansas
Daughters of the Revolution propose
that 1t shall be marked for the benefit
Of future generations. They are now
seeking to mark it through the State
by stone monuments. 1t will not mat
ter how simple the monuments may
be, they are to be representative Of
the entire State of Kansas. In their
work they propose to interest the
school children of the various counties
through which the trail runs. These
children will erect the monuments and
will be aided in their work by the
children of other counties.
Mrs. w. e. Stanley, wife Of ex-Gov-
ernor Stanley, explained the work in
a short talk before the meeting of the
Elizabeth Benton chapter held at the
home of Mrs. Daniel Boone. ''It has
always been the plan of the Kansas
Daughters to carry on as much local
work as possible" said Mrs. Stanley.
eve have marked the spot where the
first man to enter Kansas stood, and
now we intend to mark the old Santa
Fe trail. We are trying to interest the
school children throughout the State

the counties through which the trail
passes. We will make this our work
for the coming year, and at the end
Of that time we hope to have marked

In every country Of the civilized world
Sisters of Charity are known. Not only
do they minister to the spiritual and
intellectual needs of the charges COM
mitted to their care, but they also
minister to their bodily needs.
With so many children to take care Of
and to protect from climate and disease,
these wise and prudential Sisters have
found Peruna a never failing safeguard.
DIR. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters from all over the
United States. A recommend recently
received from q Catholic institution in
Detroit, Mich, reads as follows:
DR.. S. E. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio:
Dear Sir: -" The young girl who used
the Peruna was suffering from Laryngi-
tbs, and loss of voice. The result of
the treatment was most satisfactory.
She found great relief, and after
further. use of the medicine we hope
so be able TO say she is entirely cured. !"
.--SiSfers of Charity.
The young girl was under the care of
the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna
for catarrh of the throat with good re-
suits as the above letter testifes.
