PROGRESS OF PELLAGRA.
Public Health Service to Issue Weekly
Bulletins on Disease.

Washington, Sept. $50 widespread
has interest In pellagra become among
medical authorities and others
throughout the country, that Surgeon
General Wyman, of the public health
and marine hospital service. has decid-
ed to issue a weekly bulletin dealing
exclusively with the developments of
that disease.
This step has been decided upon as
result of requests from practically
all of the State boards Of health of the
United States, which are watching the
progress of the disease with much con-
Germ.
The proposed report will show not
only the prevalence of pellagra, but
will indicate the distribution of the
disease. The statistical data for the
publication viii he furnished by the
medical authorities of the various
states and territories. This informa-
ton, it is believed, will be of great aid
in solving the cause of pellagra and
help materially in the efforts of the
government to check its progress. ~

"A Stubborn Cinderella" Tonight.

When You First Kiss the Last Girl
You Love-" catchy title, isn't it? .icd
the song is just as catchy. with 90 more
good ones to keep it company in the
quality musical play, "A Stubborn Gin
derella," which is to play at the Opera
house tonight This much talked about
musical play is blythe same authors AS
'"The Time, The PLACE and The Girl"
and other big successes. The play was
produced at the opening of New
Princess theatre, Chicago, by Mort Fl.
Singer and since the initial perfor-
nance has been playing to tremendous
houses, with a record Of 500 consecu-
tive performances in Chicago, six
months in New York and 20 weeks in
Boston and Philadelphia.
The plot of the piece hinges on the
love affairs of young college chap
who meets a titled young woman from
Scotland. who previous to her ac-
quaintance with Mac, the college youth
has never spoken to a man. The sit
uations following their meeting are
ludicrous in the extreme. and one only
gets breathing spell from the laughs
during one of the many pleasing song
numbers introduced throughout the
play.
A most capable company is support
ing Harry Stone who is heading the or
ganization, with Miss Grace Edmond
in the leading female role. Miss Ed

voices.

known to the entomologist, the insects
pass the interval between the spring
appearance and the fall emergence In

ance the insect makes a more general
attack upon the plant, weakening the
stem, causing the heavily loaded
head to crinkle.
The effect Of the first attack upon
the plant may be simply to destroy
the stem affected, in which case the
plant presents a squatty, bush.like
appearance. If the attack comes be-
fore the plant is large enough to
sucker readily the result is usually
the death Of the plant. The affected
plant turns a darker green than usual
leading one to believe that It is IN.
usually thrifty; later the green turns
to brown that in turn becomes of a
yellowish hue, and the stem, or, II
may be, the plant dies.
Ways to control this insect are few.
and fortunately for US they are eff.
fective within reasonable limits. II
ordinarily stays in the field where It
is born, but 1t is readily carried BY
the winds, and for that reason, the
cooperation Of the farmers Of the in.
Vaded district is essential. The stub

under deeply and rolled. All volhn.
teer wheat should be destroyed. II
possible there should be a rotation to
some crop that will not support the
flies that emerge in the spring. To
destroy those that do not appear It
has been found well in some cases to
grow strips of wheat that may be de-
stroyed at the time that the larvae
are present.

The accompanying illustration,

casing allows water to seep in through
its entire depth. We all know how
water will flow into a hole from top
to bottom, the tile draining the earth
from some distance. A similar state
