fields of the eastern states. The depars
ment of agriculture developed this idea.
and although it's practical application
is less than three years old, it has now
passed the experimental stage. That
the agriculturists of the country believe
in this theory is evidenced by the deluge
Of applications that has come to the de-
partment here for cultures of soil-inoc-
ulating bacteria. The great, majority
of these applicants are apt to be disap-
pointed, as the department has not the
ability to supply all the demands.
Secretary Wilson does not claim that
the cultures are beneficial to the soil
or to crops under all circumstances.
They must be applied to legumes. The
direct benefit is reported in more than
Is per cent of the cases where the cul-
lures have been used.
Since the first of the year a company
has established a plant in Pennsylvania
for the purpose of cultivation of soil in
oculating bacteria, and another plant
is in operation in Vermont. There
promises to grow up a very considerable
industry in this line, and as the agricul-
tural department is also supplying these
cultures a monopoly of the business by
any one firm or combination will be pre-
vented. 1t has been demonstrated by
the department that the cost Of the ma
terial for a culture capable of i%noculat-
ing an acre is but four cents. CONNER
cial concerns are charging from $3.50 to
two dollars an acre for cultures.

There is nothing of the ~aristocrat about
Tim. and he takes the keenest interest
in American manners, customs and
sports. Like his predecessor, Sir
Michael Herbert, and also like the late
Lord Pauncefote, Sir Mortimer seems
destined to increase the entente cordiale
between Great Britain and the united
States. He is a welcome visitor at the
white house. and President Roosevelt
is really very fond of him. The fact is
that Mr.. Roosevelt enjoys an actual
comradeship with several of the ambas-
sailors. notably Durand, ~Sternberg and
.Jusserand. The latter is a prime favor
tie with all the officials. Secretary Taft
saws he likes him because he is really
the one diplomat who can thoroughly
appreciate the subtlety of American hui
NOR.
Ambassador Durand has a sort of fad
in the study of child life. Wherever he
has been stationed he has gathered some
interesting data about the manners and
methods Of the juvenile population. He
has been greatly amused in observing
the newsboys of New York and also the
young colored and white arabs of the
streets of Washington, but he thinks
that for juvenile intelligence the little
folks of Persia take the palm. AS an IL
lustration of this, he relates an incident
that occurred when he represented
Great Britain at Teheran. He and some
of the legation people got up a picnic
and told the cook to prepare a luncheon.
The latter said that his children would
pack the basket. as they were well ac-
quainted with British ways. When Sir
Mortimer himself ~unpacked the drink
ables, in which were claret and brandy,
he found a package of peppermint drops
tied to each bottle. He was a little
startled to find how closely the Persian
youngsters had studied English ways

DlSSlMILARITY OF VIEWS
Those of the Optimist and the Pessi'
mist Expressed in Metrical
Measure.

The Optimist-I love the spring for il
loes bring fresh breezes from the distant
Adriatic.
The Pessimist-But the wind east, to
say the least, oft gives one pains some
what rheumatic.
The Optimist-When summers here,
hold it dear, for of flowers it's a gener-
Gus giver.
The Pessimist-Yet one is not, when it's
quite hot, free from fortunes of a sluggish
Iver.
The Optimist-Then autumn hints, with
wondrous tints, of Dame Nature in the
role of weaver.
The Pessimist-That sounds well-yet,
the truth to tell, it sayors strongly of hay
fever.
The Optimist-The winter white. is my
delight-the beautiful" everywhere doth
greet US.
The Pessimist-But, alas! there are
colds, catarrh, quack doctors, asthma
and bronchitis.

medium height, has his headquarters.
There is nothing unusual about his ap-
pearance, but his name is known
throughout the length and breadth OF
this land. and for that matter through
out the world, wherever disease n IN
lection exist. This is Surgeon-Generai
Walter Wyman, the conservator OF the
nations health. He is at the head OF the
public health and marine hospital serV-
ice, and his name is associated with
every important movement looking TO
the control of epidemics and the proven
ton of diseases and plaques entering
the borders OF the United States. =
DR.. Wyman is a modest gentleman,
who never intrudes himself on public
notice, but his position at the head OF
the health department of the govern
ment brings him into prominence, and
the work of his bureau has been so i'm
portant and at times almost sensational
that it necessarily has made him M Of
the best-known of public officials. DR..
Wyman has worked. during the IA
years he has occupied his present place.
in favor of national health laws. and
regulations and quarantine. He has
successfully opposed the old regimes
of shotgun quarantine that obtained in
the south. The United States health Of
ficers are now recognized everywhere,
and no longer opposed in the discharge
of their duties. Dr.. Wyman has been
able during his administration to SO po-
lice the frontiers with inspectors of his
bureau as to reduce to the minimum the
danger of the introduction of yellow
fever and cholera.
Surgeon-General Wyman was in the
marine hospital service before he was
called to his present position. He was
four years at the head Of the marine hos
pital in Baltimore, and in addition to
looking after the health of American
seamen, he found time to take up the
fight against the cruelty practiced on
crews of oyster vessels. He was also in
the marine hospital in New York.
