INFANT MORTALITY
ASTOUNDING RESULT OF AD-
MIRAL BRoADBENT's TESTS.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, November 1O.-When Admiral
Broadbent. a brother Of the kings we'll
known physician. took Office as mayor Of
Huddersield on November 8, 1904, his
novel scheme to reduce infant mortality
was detailed in these dispatches. He Of
fered to donate parents living in a speci-
fed district of tho city IS for every child
born during his twelve months in office
which lived to the age Of q year. Tho
scheme drew forth eulogtes from the Prin-
cess Of Wales, President Roosevelt and
other distinguished people and has been
watched with the greatest interest by all
interested in vital statistics. The result Of
the experiment was announced yesterday,
the second anniversary of its Inauguration.
The rate Of infant mortality In the Long
wood district Of Huddersfield, which is the
experimental area, had averaged 122 per
thousand for the preceding ten years.
Unfortunate Period.
The period of the test proved somewhat
unfortunate. There were serious epidemics
summer Of 1906 was one of the deadliest
recorded. The first baby to earn the gift
was born on November 10, 1904, and the
notified the managing committee of the
births of these babies. No fewer than 1O7
received the gift. Four died and one did
not claim the gift and its fate cannot be
learned. IT, however, 1t is reckoned as
dead the average mortality works out A
per thousand as compared with the pre-
ious 122 per thousand.
Result Astounding.
Mr.. Broadbent, in announcing the result
at the borough council, said this reduction in
the average to less than one-half Of what
it had been was astounding. His promise
of the gift of S. was intended as a stimu-
lus to maternal affection. but to prove his
desire to help mothers this was done
through a committee of volunteer women
workers, who undertook to advise and as
sist the parents II they SO desired. They
belonged to all classes and there was no
discrimination. Some lived in places which
were hardly better than slums.

the service of the government. They sur
rendered them. This battalion of the 25th
Infantry was given the same option that
was given to the white troops engaged in
that ARRAY. They made an intelligent but
nefarious choice.
Many officers who have commanded this
regiment know q the veracity Of the men
of the non-commissioned stan.
Let these men who desire an agitation OF
this matter solicit their sympathy, in
terest and aid on behalf Of such of these
unfortunate men as are known to them by
their records to be incapable Of such Of
tense against society.
None will be more willing to respond to
their request than Gen. A. 8. Burt who
will use, am quite sure. his best efforts
in their behalf.

Short Suggestions.


A vanilla bean kept in box Of sugar
will impart a delicate flavor to the SUI
gar.
An olive placed in each bouillon cup
before pouring in the bouillon gives. the
liquid an added and pleasing flavor.
No excuse for fragments to lodge In
corners and crevices of the refrigerator
when skewers will dislodge them SO
quickly.
Coarse salt and vinegar will clean
enameled ware that has been burned or
discolored. The same will clean brass
or copper.
An authority on fine laundering says
that hot water should not be used In
washing fine table linen or embroid-
cred doilies. Cold water, with soap
and borax, if not borax soap, should
be used instead.
To clean a whitewashed ceiling mix
starch and water Into a paste and ap-
ply it to the ceiling with a piece Of
soft flannel. Leave it to dry and then
brush it off lightly with brush. The
blackness will come off with the starch
and the ceiling will be most satisfac-
torily clean.

Building Up a Beef Herd.

1t is important to have cattle Of
good individual quality and to have
this backed up by good pedigrees. But
it is equally important that their en-
viroment be right, writes New York
farmer in American Agriculturist. a
farm that is naturally poor and grows
poor crops can only develop stock Of
poor quality. 1 am positive Of this.
The farm on which my cattle are kept
is considered one Of the best in the
county and is not getting any poorer
with the large amount of manure my
stock make. 1t is not what could be
called high ground, but almost level
and well drained. This soil is under
laid with limestone, similar to the
limestone and blue grass lands Of Ken
lucky. that have long been famous for
the stock that came from them.
