Even after physicians discovered the means by which typhoid fever is com municated, it was generally believed that water free from visible impurities was safe, and that visibly foul water was dangerous. Although the latter conclusion is generally correct, the former is wholly erroneous. When a city's water supply comes directly from muddy stream the probabilities are that it contains the in- lection. as typhoid fever is existent at all times and streams are open to pollution from many sources, but perfectly clear water, having every appearance of pur- ity may be more dangerous than muddy water. The house filter clarifies, but does not actually cleanse. .1siAs

For long time 1t was contended that
 water in streams purified itself every few
 miles. The absurdity of this theory was
 demonstrated so frequently that it finally became patent to both laymen and phy- sicians that it was based largely upon
 imagination. Excellent proof of its falsty
 was given when it was observed that an increase in the number of reported cases of typoid fever in one Massachusetts city,
 nine miles down the Merrimac river from another place, invariably followed an epi- | demic in the upstream city. Finally the 1 lower place installed a filter plant and | the upper one sought new source of | water supply, with the result that the percentage of typhoid fever eases to total population was reduced to a minimum in both Washington health authorities rec 1 ognize the danger from distant sources of l infection, and when an epidemic of fever broke out three years ago in Mt.

Men Past Sixty i'm Danger.

More than half of mankind over
sixty years of age suffer from
kidney and bladder disorders,
usually enlargement of prostate
glands. This is both painful and
dangerous, and Foley's Kidney
Cure should be taken at the first
sign of danger, as it corrects
irregularities and has cured many
old men of this disease. Mr..

Notwithstanding his excitement
Teddy went at his work very judi

boat up by the tackles, hauling al
ternately at the bow and stern and
making each line fast to its Delaying
pin before he went at the other until
she was free of the chocks and high
enough above the floor for the trap

of turns of the ropes around the be-
laying pins SO that the boat would
not get away from him, to lower her
first at the bow and then at the stern
until he had her safe in the dock be-
low. This was good plan, but it en-
countered serious difficulties In exc
cutting it, The bow came up all right
but for the life of him he could not
bulge the stern. This was discour-
aging, but Teddy was lad of expe-
dients and had not lived all his life
on the seashore without learning
something about rigging, There were
plenty of blocks and ropes lying
around, and it did not take him long

One of the finest plants for groups
or beds is the hardy perennial
phlox, which will thrive in any
position and can be used to ad-
vantage in the hardy borders, in
large groups on the lawn or plant
ed in front of shrubbery, where,

faded flowers, a constant success.
ion of blooms may be had until
frost. These plants are admirably
adapted for cutting. There are
twelve distinct, bea utiful colors,
and they can be purchased at 10
cents each. Few plants will give
better satisfaction to the amateur
than hardy phlox. The ease with
which they are cultivated, their
entire hardness and the extended
season of blooming, combined with
the varied and beautiful coloring
make them particularly valuable
for garden planting. Rubeckia is
of easy culture. 1t commences
blooming in July and continues
until frost, which is point in its
favor. 1t blooms with great free
dom, sending up dozen stout
stalks, every branch laden with
buds and blossoms in ali stages of
developement, producing a grand
effect. They grow in height from
five to seven feet. Giant daisy is
plant upright in growth, attain
ing four to five feet, with bright
green foliage. The flowers are
snowy white, with yellow centers,
the bloom being from two or three
inches across, They will bloom
from midsummer to autumn.

Sheep Need Variety.

1t is often that farmers dom t
understand what sheep like to eat,
or else they are very Indifferent
in supplying it. Next to poultry
no domestic stock enjoy variety
of feed so much as sheep. The
subject is very nicely put up by a
short article in the Arkansas
Homestead as follows:
"Sheep, like other live stock
love greater variety of feed than
any they usually get, but sheep
especially are of change and
variety. They adapt themselves
quickly to change of conditions
and no matter how luxuriant the
pasture they will leave it daily
and frequently nip the sprouts and
eat the weeds. In fact, | have
sometimes thought that the more
grass they eat the more noxious
and bitter weeds they will con-
sumo. Thus by changing them to
different fields by turning them,
especially the lambs, into the corn
fields after you have laid them by,
or into the clearing when the
sprouts are young and tender,
they will thrive and wax fat. and
unless the size of your farm is
greatly in excess to the size of
your flock, two blades of grass will
grow where one grew before, and
you will have to mark the price of
your land up in order to keep it.
The tiock's profit will be, or should
be, 100 per cent. with fighting
chance for more. The fleece al
ways has paid and will now more
than pay the cost of keep"

Progress In Poultry.

When Columbus reached the
shores of America there was not
chicken to be seen anywhere.
The Indians of the Isles, those of
the continent stretching north
the Atlantic, as we'll as the Aztecs
of Mexico, and the Incas of Peru,
were wholly unacquainted with
the luxury of hen eggs, and. had
never heard rooster crow. The
wild duck, of course, was known
everywhere that water flowed, and
the wild turkey was familiar to
the residents from northern Mexico
to Hudson Bay, but nowhere in
the Americas was there a dupli-
cate of the now so common Oc.
cupants of the coops and barn
yards. 1t was not until well into
the sixteenth century that chick
ems where impol ted into the col
ony of Virginia, and nothing but
the common dunghill fowl was
known in what is now the United
States until the new republic was
we'll under way. So the poultry
industry, as we now know it, one
Of the marvels of The modern
world, was practically the growth
of the nineteenth century, and
principally of the last sixty or
seventy years. 1t was not until
the fanciers took up the business
and began scientific breeding that
the varieties were increased and
proved until at present they num-
ber more than hundred.
AS explained heretofore in these
columns, the original OF all our
poultry was the jungle fowl which
was found wild in India, subse-
quently domesticated and spread
over China and other countries
of Asia. 1t does not appear,
however, that any effort was made
in these countries to evolve i'm
proved breeds, and in Egypt they
still have the exact duplicate of
the chickens that pecked in the
straw around the pyramids during
the reign of the early Pharaohs.
The original supply was brought
from Asia Europe, but it is Eng
land and America that have been
foremost in developing new breeds
The results accomplished BY the
The Democrat-sentinel. [volume] (Logan, Ohio) 1906-1935, 1907-08-22

fanciers In these two countries In
recent years have been nothing
short Of marvellous. BY careful
selection and mating, persisting
experimentation, a system of Gull
ing and excluding along the lines
taught by the Darwinian philoso-
ply, fowls of all sizes have been
produced, from the dimlnutive
batam to the mammoth Rocks,
one a tiny bit of feathered vanity
weighing only few ounces, and
the other weighing many pounds.
Results equally as wonderful have
been accomplished in color effects.
There are variaties in red, black,
brown and white, with nearly all
possible combinations, besides buff
and Andalusian blue. Not content
with this, the fanciers have shown
that they can lace, stripe, spangle
or bar the feathers of their birds
in any way to satisy their indi-
yidual fancy, In fact, it seems
that about all there is left for
them to do along this line is to
put their initials on the feathers of
their birds, which, in the light of
what they have already done, is
not as impossible as 1t may sound.
While this is interesting, how
ever, it is the commercial feature
of the business that commands
attention, The magnitude of the
business, reviewed from the
standpoint of national finances, is
truly amazing. Poultry and eggs,
as is well known, constitute an
important part of the food supply
of the country. Indirectly, the
business represents an invested
capital of hundreds of millions of
dollars. One poultry farm alone
in the anthracite region of Penn
sylvania, coyers eighty two acres,
thirty-five of which are taken up
with the buildings and yard, there
being 1900 square feet of floor
space under roof. The owners
have contract for furnishing
large hotel in New York with 600
dozen eggs every week, and an
other to supply New York firm
with 5000 dozen weekly. The
plant is lighted throughout by
electricity, heated by steam and
watered by a system of pipes fed
by an immense living we'll. From
this one example an idea may be
formed.

a BAR had formed off Marbles
"a wharf, so that whaler could
1A not lie at it or anywhere near
1t. But this was not a matter
of any special consequence, for more
than thirty years had passed since a
whaer and that wharf had had any
thing to do with each other.
1t was wharf In ruins, and almost
as badly dilapidated was the oil house
that stood on the end of it, with great
doors that opened out over the water.
But these doors were never opened
now, nor was the little sliding door
that shut down fairly into the water
and when 1t was raised opened chan
mel into which boat could be ioated.
Both of these doors were fastened on
the inside, and the door that opened on
the wharf was fastened with paddock
us big as a small cabbage and as rusty
as If 1t had been towed astern of the
Harmony Home during whole cruise.
