the protective saccines or

the aforementioned measures is
simply to court disaster and al
low the disease to spread over
wider areas. No sane person
would try to cure cotton bolls
that had been injured by the boil

the ailment that has to be de

as possible, it's being spread and
doing further damage. In other
words, an outbreak of Charlton

and sanitary measures rather
than by Therapeutics or ~so-called
remedies applied to the animal.

of cavil or gainsay. the fact that
tuberculosis and other diseases
are communicated to weak hui
man systems through the food

The Cane Crop.

Louisiana Planter.
During the past week frequent
rains have occurred in different
parts of the sugar district, some
sections being visited more than
others in this regard, but almost
every. plantation has now had a
suficiency of rain for the time
being and in some cases a cessa-
ton of the showers would be
heartily welcome in order that
some Roadway might be made
against the grass. The crop in
general looks very promising
and is coming out excellently.
This is true of both plant cane
and stubble. The fine appear
ance of the crop and the higher
level of sugar prices make sugar
planting prospects more cheer
full than for a long time.

70 v TYPHOID.

The investigations of medical
scientists have cOnclusively
shown that the principal, if
not the only, methods OF the
transmission OF the typhoid
germ is through dies. water and
milk, and that flies RI most
largely the disseminators of that
dreaded disease.
With this knowledge in our
possession the evident thing for
everybody TO do is to guard our
food as perfectly as possible
from contamination by these
filthy insects. The best way to
do this is by screening the entire
house, but where this is not pos
sible then the dining room and
kitchen should be well screened.
Notwithstanding the best care
however q few flies will get in.
INT bering that it takes but
one fy to afiict your family with
