or Talavera. At last Sir John lost his

HONEST man FROM PASCO
Mystery Surronnding Accident Near
Trent Cleared Up.
SUPPOSED ROBBERY Proves UNTRUE
INJURED MAN LEFT MONEY WITH
STRANGER, WHO RETURNED
1T TO OWNER.

A part of the mystery surrounding
an accident which occurred near Trent
up. Frank Penny was brought to the
station a few weeks ago by Michael
Blessing, Of Trent. The man had a
severe conclusion on his head and did
not know whether he had been sand
bagged while riding on a Northern Pa
cific train. or whether he had fallen
off. He knew he had $40 when he was
in Pasco, but his mind was not clear
on what happened later, says the Spo-
kane Chronicle.
Yesterday the police received $40
from Pasco. The money had been left
with stranger on the depot platform
at Pasco by a man who answered Pen
ny's description. An investigation by
the police proved that the money had
been given by Penny to a stranger
to keep for him. Penny does not re-
member the transaction, but he posi-
lively identified the money, which was
all in currency. 1t is thought the man
was suffering from mental alteration
while in Pasco and later took a train,
from which he fell
Penny is now employed by Porter
brothers and is regarded as valuable
man. He showed his appreciation of
Blessings kindness by leaving IS in the
hands of the police to be paid to Bles-
sing for his trouble in bringing him to-
the hospital in this city.

THE HEN HAS AN INNING

A western congressman has recently
gained considerable notoriety and a lot
Of free advertising by Offering a Gu
logy on the American hen in the
course of a speech in the lower house
of congress. A consideration of the
figures which he gave proves beyond
question that his praise of biddy was
well grounded and that any honor he
may have acquired In declaring her
worth and usefulness was properly be-
slowed. In the course of his remarks
he stated that in the course of the year
the American hen can produce wealth
equal to the capital stock OF all the
banks in the New York clearing house
and have a week to spare, in less than
sixty days she can equal the total an
nual production of all the gold mines
in the United States, in six months pro-
duce as much wealth as all of the iron
mines of the country can turn out in
year and In year and ten months
pay Off the interest bearing debt of the
country. 1t goes without saying that
this speech was listened to with inter-
est and was received with vigorous
applause. Hereafter whenever the leg
islative grist gets stale and monoto-
nous congress will be able to rouse the
sleepers on the back seats by propos-
ing toast to the American hen.

THE WHY OF CULTIVATION.

Every farmer, and particularly he
who has taken care and pains to secure
and plant the very best seed corn it
realize that this is but the first step in
raising bumper crop of corn. When
it is understood that for every pound
Of growth in dry matter made by the
plant from 300 to 800 pounds of water
Is pumped up from the soil through
the Importance and mission Of thor
ough cultivation which keeps the
ground in that mellow condition most
favorable to proper circulation of
soil, air and moisture and prevents
that baking of the surface Of the
ground which every farmer knows
from his own experience is disastrous
to the growing crop. In what we may
call the philosophy of soil cultivation
the killing of weeds is but a very Sec
ondary object. Were there no weed
seeds in the soil the reasons for care
full cultivation would still remain
Hardly reader Of these notes but can
recall from his own experience cases
in which he has harvested from FIVE to
fifteen bushels more corn per acre from
that portion Of the field that was given
an extra cultivation. The difference in
yield was due simply to the fact that
the cultivation of the soil enabled the
growing corn to utilize supply of
moisture at critical period in it's de-
velopment. 1t is because Of this fact
that cultivation of field Of corn just
caring with a single horse cultivator
tends to offset drought effects and is a
labor that fetches very large returns.
And because all titled crops develop
under very similar conditions the prin-
ciple is one that applies with equal
force to all of them. The planting of
good seed is Of utmost Importance. A
proper cultivation Of the soil is none
the less so. Both should go hand in
hand.

THE DISCOVERY OF rRrCH1NAE.


Little was it thought when a French
medical student named Paget discover
ed in 1885 a new parasite Of man In
the shape Of small worms in a cadaves
upon which he was working that this
little organism would prove a factor
in international politics ere fifty years
had passed, yet such proved to be the
case, for the little worms thus discov-
cred were trichinae, and their presence
in man and animals gives rise to the
much dreaded and fatal disease known
as trichinosis. The parasite was first
discovered in America in 1912, in which
year it was found four times In the
muscles of humans. Since that time
over 900 cases have been recorded in
this country. 1t was not, however,
until 1860 that the significance Of the
organism. pathologically, was discover
ed and proved to be the cause of trich-
inosis. Up to that time the disease
had been COMPOUNDED with typhoid
fever and other maladies of similar ma
ture. AS we never heard much about
appendicitis until the appendix was
discovered, so we never heard much
about trichinOsis until trichinae were
discovered When this discovery was
once made and its significance clearly
established interest began to be mani
tested, especially in Germany, where
hibiting sausage and chopped meat Of
American origin from being imported
into that country. This was followed
in 1883 by another decree which prohib-
tied the importation of all American
pork, which latter order was subse-
quently repealed to admit American
products under certain inspection rules.
The trichinae argument is still used
today in Germany by men engaged in
the butcher business to prejudice the
sale Of American meats. The trichinae
are found most often in meat eating
animals - in fact, except by inocula-
ton, the parasites can only get into the
system by being taken in alive in meat
food. Fish, birds, etc, are practically
never infected. No harm can possibly
result from eating meat affected with
trichinae If it has been thoroughly
cooked otherwise the danger is ever
present and he who eats raw pork or
other uncooked meat stands a possible
danger of infection. Germany has
adopted a very thorough and costly
method of meat inspection. involving
careful microscopic examination of
all pork products, and hardly a year
passes but some one comes forward
with proposal for the establishment
this country.
