DEADLY PNEUMONIA.
increase in Death Rate Caused by
Dread piceass.

Public Opinion: During the first six
months OF 1904 tbs percentage OF deaths
from pneumonia compared with the to-
tai number or deaths In the city of
New York was 1876, an increase from
l4.7 IN the first half OF 1898. This is the
highest rate recorded. the next being
risen above 81. The same increase Is
shown by decades. h rate per thou
send Of the population from 1864 to 1874
being go, from 1874 to 1884, 2.5s, from
1884 10 1894. 2.eS. a much greater In
crease is expected for h decade now
ending. Pulmonary tuberculosis Is ex-
cluded from these statistics. Last
June the board of estimates and appor-
tionment OF New York city appro-
priated $4,000 for an inquiry into the
cause and prevention of pneumonia,
and the commission has organized and
begun its work under the direction OF
the New York board of health. The
chairman OF the commission is DIR. VIII
liam III. WEIGH of Johns Hopkins uni
versity. and among the members are
Dr. William Osler of Johns Hopkins.
DIR. II. M. Prudden of Columbia uni
versity. DR.. Frank Billings of the Uni
versity OF Chicago and DIR. Thomas
Darlington, president. and DIR. III. M.
Biggs. general health officer of the New
York health, department. The inquiry
Will be national In it's scope. The prob
lem of prevention of the spread OF acute
respiratory diseases was outlined re-
Gently by DR.. Biggs for the New York
Herald:
There ran now be no question that
the exciting cause In each one OF the
diseases OF this group is a micro-organ-
ism which requires such. conditions for
Its growth and multiplication as are
found in the living body. These organ
isms practically do not multiply ut all
outside OF the tissues or cavities OF the
body under natural conditions. The
infection therefore must practically al
ways be the result OF communication,
directly or Indirectly, from one human
being to another. The conclusion, then,
seems j%ustifiable that these diseases
are essentially communicable, and
however great the inherent difficulties
of the problem may be, theoretically
al least. they should be TO a greater or
less extent prRventable. The difficult
ties in the problem of prevention arise
largely from the wide distribution OF
these organisms. Srteptococci. pneu-
mococci and Influenza bacilli are pres
ent IN almost morbid conditions In the
respiratory tract OF the inhabitants of
large cities, and probably. also, to a
very large extent in the respiratory
tract OF healthy individuals. The con-
ditions are much like those existing
with relation to ~diphtherla. excepting
that these organisms probably live
more readily and for longer periods OF
time in the body cavities of healthy in
dividuals than do the diphtheria bacilli,
and the latter. perhaps, have tat least
Ia childrenl greater p~athogenic activi-
ties

CALVES RAISED WITHOUT MILK.

There lis considerable controversy going
on over the question Of raising calves
without milk that is, providing them with
some substitute for milk from the time
they are two or three weeks old until
they are put on grain and hay at four
months old. 1t il claimed that where milk
can be sold for a good price one cannot ar
ford to feed any part of it TO calves. This
may be true, and If 1t is the question arises
as to whether it will pay to raise the calf
at all, In the experiments tried in rails

This Is a question one must work out for
himself and IL can only be done by expert
ment, placing the cost OF the bought food
against the price received for the quantity
of milk the calf would consume fin a given
period and then balancing the difference

HANDLING YOUNG STOCK.

Many farmers seem to ave an idea that
1t is necessary to keep all OF their farm
animals In a state of constant fear I'M or
der to gest the best results from them.
Nothing could be farther from the most
desirable state OF affairs. Ii is admitted
that one must be firm with animals in or
der TO make them understand that you are
master at all times, but this firmness may
be SO associated with Kindness that the
animal win not only be obedient, but win
develop "A wonderful amount of intelli-
genee. To keep an animal in constant
fear is to get as little out OF them as they
can give. To treat it kindly is to obtain
from X all that Il can give--a wonderful
differences. The treatment OF young stock
is especially important for the training
must be done as with q child during the
tender years. With heifers learn to handle
them gently SO that all the way up 10 the
milking period they will know that your
hand is never raised against them but In
Kindness. Lambs from babyhocd to adult
years should be taught that your presence
means safety 10 ma .e- who else or what
else may be around. and SO through the
list of farm animals. The result OF such
treatment means more dollars IN profit to
