BOARD
GAIL DO NOTHING
7AsEIp THE EEPERS rs WITHOUT
THE POWER OF THE WEST
VIRGINIA AUTHORITIES.

PARKRRsBURG, Aug. 10. -4The
State Board OF Health Of West VIZ
g1nia can DO nothing for Rashid the
1epsr," said DE. A. N. Frame. when
asked what action had been taken
since the persistent demands of Gov.
.ernor Dawson and Attorney General
May.
THE state board is absolutely
without power" continued the doctor.
There Is a public Misrepresentation
that the boards law is supreme. and
that st can do anything 1T pleases.
This is o the a s because 1t has
NO law to back it up"
The failure of the board to act be,
cause Of its claim of lack of iurls-
dfctlon leaves poor Rashid in a bad
shape. II mortal man was ever up
against ii, he is. From the latest
word at hand by the local authorities
Rashid is still at Pickens, Randolph
county.
The local board there refuses to
mix up with him or have anything to
do with him and he Subsists On what
the B. & O. railroad gives him and
what is donated by a few charitable
people, which is moi much.
Prosecutor Laird had a letter from
Attorney General May to the effect
that West Virginia would care for the
leper. But the State has not done
anything, and it don't look as If It
would. Every authority denies that
it has any power to act, and in the
meantime Rashid is lying out in the
boiling sun with nothing to do; little
to eat, and not even those accommu
dations which nature requires.
If solitary conference.-the a purga,
tory his plight is worse than hell and.
all over the county there is a demanl.
for an end to the inhuman proceed-
ing.
DR.. Frame said that the case would
follow g new channel in an effort TO
obtain relief. Application will be
made to the Turkish sultan by the
American minister to permit the re.
turn of Rashid to Beirut, Syria, the
place he came from. Since 1T has been
determined that Rashid cannot be de.
ported because his case has been out
over three years having pass.
ed since he came here, the govern
ment will have to proceed along lines
of diplomacy and not force, and III
view Of the position taken by the
sultan it is doutful If he can be per-
suaded ito receive the leper back.
There will be some legislation this
winter" said DR.. Frame, "looking to-,

This year I raised two pieces OF
corn. No. / was all fertilized with
barnyard manure, except a corner
near the barn that I thought did not

ploughed in the fall and the other
half early in the spring. This lot was
planted at right angles to the plough
ing in three parts-to ensilage corn,
to crop corn and to potatoes. The
worms worked on this piece badly,
but much the worst on the spring
ploughing. The crop, both in stalks,
ears and potatoes, was much the best
1 on the fall ploughing.
Piece No. was one-half plougheo
in the fall without manure, and the
other half was MANFRED during the
winter and spring. and was plougheo
in the spring. Here, again, the fall
ploughing showed its superiority
Looking across this piece over the
spring ploughing, person coule
