No Excuse for cowardly Inhumanity.

DIR. c. S. Braddock. who at one time
was chief medical inspector of the STA
mese government. contributes tc the New
York Medical Journal an article in which
he says that he was never able to get Il
single history of anyone having acquired
the disease of leprosy directly from an
other. In Siam, he asserts, many people
associate with lepers for long periods
without acquiring the disease
The New York World. moved 10 in
dignation by the pathetic case of Bertha
Osis. observes:
1t happens every now and then that
leper is discovered somewhere or other IN
this country, and never can we read of
such an occurrence without mortifcarion
and resentment. year or two ago one
who had contracted the disease was found
out and driven from one place to another
like a mad dog, so that he nearly lost his
life through the cruelty and cowardice Of his
tormentors. In one place, IL we are to be-
lieye the local newspapers, a lynching was
threatened and the unfortunate man was
compelled to 90 into hiding far from any
human habitation. Nor does it matter
whether the accounts of this wretchs sui
ferings were exaggerated or not; the truth
is none the less apparent that the lepcr IS
commonly regarded with superstitiOuS
and inhuman dread and maleyoence. ana
that this attitude Is carefully encouraged
and fostered by the yellow newspapers
The probability is that leprosy is com
municable. but not highly contagious.
Certainly there is no excuse for those
whose vulgar dread of leprosy or any
other disease causes them to stihe the
dictates of Misunderstanding WILSON,

Market Gardening in the South.

The Manufacturers Record of Balti-
more glowingly discusses the expansion
OF truck gardening in the South, and
presents statistics of development which
SHOULD give great satisfaction to con-
sumers IN the North. 1t says the South
is rapidly becoming the great market
garden of the country, from which thou
sahus OF cars are annually CARRYING to
Northern and Western markets fruits
ana vegetables approaching in value
SlVUVOO;Oo0 The extent of the eXpan-
sion IS thus c0ncisely Indicated:
The trucking industry originating in the
Norfolk section of Virginia about half Il
century ago has within the past twenty or
twenty-five years, and especially during the
past ten years, extended down the coast
10 me Mexican border, and is firmly planted
IA fae highlands of Arkansas, Tennessee
and Virginia.
Inls development of the resources of
the South has been increasingly notice
aole In the North during the late winter
ana early spring. Vegetables and garden
greens were marketed in plenty in all
the leading centers of population in the
North during February and March last,
at prices that compared fayorably with
those that were naid for homegrown
vegetables last summer. Beets, radishes.
lettuce, caulitlower carrots, etc. and the
spring garden fruits, early found their
way to Northern dealers. and were eager
~ purchased This shortens the season
In which houSeholders must be content
with root house vegetables, and conduces
to good health. 1t will doubtless operate
to temper the eagerness for homegrown
vegetables of the early varieties, but these
VIII be taken eagerly just the same, as
they will be chosen when they make
Their appearance. because of their fresh
ness. However, it will have a restrain
ing influence upon prices, and that will
be a good thing for the consumer
Coincident with the development of
truck farming in the South there has
been Improvement in north-and-south
transportation facilities. with refrigera-
tor cars, fast trains. and dispatch at the
stations in the truck gardening regions
This carrying trade will grow in impor-
lance with the further development of
the trade. ard eventually the Northern
winter will be very short, SO far as alb
senee of fresh products of the earth is
concerned. The results IF all this may
be reflected adversely upon the vegetable
and fruit canning business. because con
sumers win tLd it unnecessary to pur-
chase as much of such products as for
merly. Ii will certainly operate TO re
lease the housewife from the annual
drudgery and worry of the preserving

The Eskimo begins TO train his deg

One Of the most interesting features of
Eskimo villages are puppies tied to Tie

Not until dog bred for mail service

with the team; then it is dropped out.
Next day it runs the same distance.
Gradually the distance is increased until
it reaches its fifteenth month of life,
when it becomes part Of the regular
service. The life of a mail dog is from
three to four years. No greater punish

Great herds of deer and caribou are

To be in Jail for taking graft,
