MOVEMENT ON COAST
TO SEND LEPERS HERE

The Examiner s story of the escape
of Look Bet, the Chinese leper, from
the city lazaretto led Foreman Alonzo
Mcfarland of the grand jury to in
augurate a movement yesterday for
the removal of all lepers i'll San Fran
cisco to MoIokai, the S. T. Examiner
of Jan. says.
In announcing new grand jury com
mittees, Mcfarland named committee
on the Leper Hospital, consisting of
Thomas A Donlon, E. A. Keil and P. G.
Rossi.
DonIon has visited the settlement at
Molokai and has given the subject of
caring for lepers much attention.
cit has been my intention for some
time to inaugurate movement look
ing to the removal of lepers from the
city to Molokai, - said Foreman Nc
Farland "The city now spends about
$4,000 a year caring for lepers. There
is no reason why this money should
not be used in having the lepers cared
for at Molokai. They would be much
better off there than they are here, as
the settlement is run on the most hu-
name basis and the lepers virtually
govern themselves. They vote, have
bands and baseball clubs and are given
every possible facility to ameliorate. the
,,;sorxy oF %bo;r liuaS -
There are now fifteen lepers at the
city lazaretto. Two of them are white
women There are also four white
men, boy about fourteen years ole
and six Chinese.

yet returned to the pesthouse, as was
predicted by his keepers. For TIVE

BETWEEN ACTS TRICK
CYCLISTS WILL SHOW

The first performance of Lend Me
Your Wife is to be given tonight at
the Opheum theater. In this farce the
late Roland Reed, one of the worlds
foremost comedians in his day, toured
the United States and England. and it
was generally pronounced the funniest
play in which he ever appeared. It is
promised a good production tonight,
and in itself would constitute a fine
evenings entertainment
In connection with it, however, Mr..
Cooley has arranged for a special fea-
ture in the Eldids. wonderful trick
cyclists. who will appear between the
acts. The Eldids are unsurpassed in
their line of work. and it is doubtful
if any trick riding equal to theirs has
ever been presented on any vaudeville
stage. Miss Martell will have new
specialties tonight.
Following Lend Ne Your Wife, a
romantic drama entitled Under Seal
ed Orders is to be played. This play,
while melodramatfc, is far from being
conventional either in plot or charac-
ters, and for that reason should be
unusually attractive. Following I'm
der Sealed Orders a beautiful drama
entitled When Her Soul Speaks" is
10 be presented.

NEURALGIA

The real meaning Of the word Neu'
ralgia is nerve-pain. and any one who
has suffered with the n,alady will not
he SO anxious to know Of Its nature
as 20 hear OF its antidOte. Though
scarcely recognized by the profession
and people half century ago. 1t Is
now one Of the most common aid pain
full ailments which afflict humanity
AS now generally understood the word
signifies an affection OF the nervous
system, with pain In the course OF the
principal nerves.
The two great causes Of Neuralgia
are, Impoverishment Of the Blood
and Deficiency Of Nerve Force; and
the treatment Of 1t Is not SO obscure
as many would be led to suppose. The
first thing Is to relieve the pain,
which is done more quickly and salts
factorily by ST. JACOBS OIL than by
any other remedy known; the second
object is to remove the cause, which
is accomplished by the abundant use
of nourishing food, Of nature to
strengthen and give tone to both the
muscular and nervous systems.

vania, and all the states east, are now
building upon that plan, and they are

they ever did in ten years thereto

the good work goes on.
There Is a double advantage In
building under this plan; the first Is
q larger property list to assess for the
purpose; the second, the roads must
be built under capable engineer,
which insures proper construction.
Those in position to know generally
agree that the money spent by the
local road officials is often one-half to
three-fourths wasted. II they do the
right thing, they are apt to do 1t at the
wrong time. State aid solves this
problem.
This new plan of road building does
not take away from the locality Its
control Of the highways; the people OF
the township decide for themselves
whether they will or will not make i'm
provements under the state aid law.
II they decide in favor Of the i'm.
provement the state must pay its pro-
portion. II they decide not to build,

NOTES..

Patience and energy well applied
will do wonders.
An indiscriminate mixing of breeds
will produce scrubs.
The muddy yard IL worse for sheep
than for any other stock.
The eve that receives good care
shows It in her produce.
Scrubs among sheep are just as bad
as scrubs among hogs and cattle.
The earlier the fat sheep are put
upon the market the better the prices.
Every farm home should have lots
of sunshine. It's free and mighty
healtbful.
Sunshine is as valuable in the barn
as in the henhouse. There is usually
less of It, though.
A lot of valuable work can be done
right now II there is comfortable
workshop on the farm.
The man who tries to get the best
he can from his farm seldom has
difficulty selling his products.
This Is q good time to put the fan.
ming mill to work. It's the best way
TO improve the small grain seed.
The selling side Of farming Is an
important thing. Do not hold the stun
too long and do not b in too much Of
3 hurry.

ALFALFA CULTURE.
Some Facts Regarding u a. Feed for
Cattle, Sheep and Hogs.

Alfalfa Is not intended In the main
as a pasture crop: that is to say. cat
tie, sheep and rvminants-animals
TINT chew the cud-will almost invar-
lably bloat and probably die, II they
do not have prompt attention, when
grazed on rank alfalfa. Horses. hogs
and animals that do not chew the cud
can Craze on II with impunity. Furth-
err, Il IL almost too valuable for pas
ture; that is, II can be utilized to
greater profit In other ways. One OF
these ways is to cut II up and feed II
incurred. II SO used, slightly wilted,
nothing bloats from eating II. Cured
as hay, Il does not cause the animal to
bloat. A piece OF land In alfalfa can
be cut from one side to the other and
have Il fresh all the time; when you
get through from one side OF the field
the other side Is ready to be cut again.
Aside from. its value as forage crop
Il has almost equal value as renova.
tor Tenewer and fertilizer OF the
soil. Properly, q man should have
part OF his farm In alfalfa while he Is
raising other crops on the remainder.
and after q field has been In alfalfa
for four or five years he should plow
Il up aud plant other crops and SOW
the rest OF the land in alfalfa, and
keep up that sort OF rotation.
One OF the most wonderful things
about this plant is its root system. No
other we have begins to equal or even
approach IT, Its roots go down, no
body knows how far. You know what
a short distance roots Of other crops
go. They get perhaps the plant food
elements out OF the first foot or two
feet-possibly little more OF the soil
from the surface. downward. Alfalfa
roots SO down where no other plants
roots go, and reaching the mineral
elements OF the lower subsoils. bring
them to the surface and convert them
into merchantable commodities.
AS a fertilizer, they certainly work
a most wonderful transformation In
the soil. They push down and down
in every direction honeycombing the
earth. as It were, by their growth, and
II you pillow up an alfalfa field you
find the subsoil filed with their decay
ing matter. making humus, II you
please. far below where any other
roots have put 1t. depositing 1t there
for future use and benefit, and through
their innumerable perforations the
rains of heaven filter carrying down
with them other fertilization from the
surface, working a most wonderful en-
richment, such as nothing else In the
world does or can do.-F. D. Coburn.-
