FLIES OR BEMoANlNG
DEATH RATE.
ATLANTA (Ga.) Journal.)

People dislike brutal truths-even
about health. They like facts sugar
coated. But it is only by picturing
conditions in the most naked and
be kept aroused to the knowledge that
the fight against disease is a cam
paign after which "finis' can never
be written.
Viewed from this candid angle,
therefore, it becomes an alternative
as to whether the population of any
given community, Atlanta, for illus
tration, prefers to Danish the fly or
to pay regular toll to the physician
and the undertaken.
The house-fly, the variety that
buzzes about our bedrooms and our
dining tables, is the proved conveyor
of typhoid fever and tuberculosis.
The conditions that enable him to
breed into dangerous proportions also
foster the spread of the majority of
maladies distributed through the me-
dunn of germs; and if preventable
germ-diseases were stricken from the
death rate, the latter would sink into
relatively negligible figure.
When, therefore, We abolish filth
from street, public place and private
premises, we accomplish two things.
We hit the disease-carrying house
fly where he lives and we also attack
mortality statistics from dozen other
recruiting avenues.
The astonishing siplicity Of the rem
edy is the chief obstacle to its enforce
ment. The average taxpayer and
| housewife are slow to believe that the
destruction of so prevalent thing as
the house-fly and the conditions that
encourage it's multiplication, make
for an elimination or a radical lessen
ing of the diseases humanity has from
the outside accepted as unacceptable.
The connection has, however, been
so firmly established that there is nc
questioning save in the mind of the
layman who deliberately refuses tc
avail himself of the teachings of mod
ern science.
In this unremitting crusade against
the unpretentious but deadly fly, the
municipal authorities and physicians
They can never develop the possibili
ties of preventive and curative science

THE QUEST FOR RAILROAD TIES.

So serious is becoming the question
of supplying sleepers for American
railways that the Santa Fe system re-
Gently sent its manager of the timber
and sleeper department on a tour to
the Orient and Europe, to make
study of conditions. 1t was learned,

among other things that three hun
dred years ago the Japanese govern
ment began to conserve its forests,
and that as a result of it's foresight,
Japan is now selling sleepers to rail-
ways in America and Mexico. There
is a duty of twenty per cent. on each
sleeper imported into the United
States. That we should be paying a
twenty per cent. duty on sleepers,
staes an Aerican contemporary, is one
among many constantly accumulat-
ing evidences of the thoughtless ex-
travagance with which our magnificent
timber supply has been ruthlessly
swept away.

Kansas City, Mo.--Men have been

Hetty Green, is the FIRST man to "find"
a railroad--a complete system, includ.
Ing tracks, depots. Offices and every
thing except a working force and gen

and roadbed were not the best in the
world; neither were the cars-what
few there were-but these were de-
tails that could be attended to.
The Texas Midland originally was
q part Of the Houston & Texas Cen.
trail, which was owned by Green's
grandfather and sold to Coils p.

came a part of Huntington's property
and was made to connect with the

OF the surveyors, who evidently were

any. rate. the error--if overlooking a
railroad could be called an error
was not discovered until II years
afterwards. Green then was living in
Chicago at the time.
He came across the original map OF
the road and compared It with a new
or one and concluded that Hunting
ton, had overlooked several miles OF
valuable property and that the mat
ter would be worth Investigating.
Huntington never had seen the prop
erty. and really did not need It all.
All he had wanted was the part which
connected with the Southern Pacific
at HSsston, furnishing him an en-
trance into Dallas. Green went to
New York to see his mother and told
her of his discovery. Her father, Il.
