NEEDLIsssLY BLIND.

The massachusetts commission for.
the blind has just issued a bulletin,
which is of general interest, especially
to young parents Tho aim OF this
publication is to convince tho public
that many persons are permanently
blind because Of lack OF care when
1.-THE blindness could have been pre-
vented. Jl
The bulletin says that .'blbies' sore
eyes, z or ophthallnia moratorium, is
an infectious germ disease, easily cur
ed when takenin time, but though this
has been known for thirty years, ut
y is probable that nearly cne-half the
blind children OF the present day have
become blind in this manner and
heaven only knows how many
more have had their lives circumscrib-
ed and their possibilities limited by
corneal scars Qeaving detective vislon)
which can never he cleared away. This
lis not only an inexcusable injustice to
tho children, but a wrong to the pub
lie, which is obliged to bear the cost
of maintaining 80 many individuals
who can be only in 8. small measure
self-supporting.' A number or cases
are related of children who lost their.
eycsight because of the Ignorance, or
neglect. of these in charge. 1t is pitt
full reading. =
Massachusetts has a, law providing
that:
prh ,tf1 E7f,f
fant become inflamed, swollen and red.
and show an unnatural discharge at
any time within two weeks after it's
birth, 1t shall be the duty Of the nurse
relative or other attendant having
charge of such infant to report III
writing within slX hours thereafter, to
the board of health Of the city or town
in which the parents of the infant re-
side, the fact that such Inflammation,
Swelling and redness OF the eyes and
unnatural discharge exist. On receipt
of such report, or of notice of the Same
| symptoms given by physician IS
provided by the following section, tho
board of health shall take such ii,lrne-
| diate action as it may deem necessary
in order that blindness may be pre-
| vented, Whoever violates the pro-
visions of this section shall be pun
| ished by fine Of not more than one
hundred dollars. 7
This seems to be a good provision.
! And the law properly takes cognizance
OF this matter, because, aside from all
humanitarian considerations which the
law cannot ignore, blindness calls for
large expenditures out Of the public
funds. Hundreds of thousands of doll
lars are expended annually for the.

CELERY CULTURE.

Celery seed is very slow in germi-
mating, and one is often led to think
that the seed he has bought is no
good. However. in the course Of about
four weeks the little plants will ap-
pear. For an early supply the seed is
sown in the hotbed or boxes indoors.
For the later it may be sown in the
open ground. The strongest plants
will he secured by transferring the lit
tie plants from their seed bed to a
plot by themselves and from this again
transplanting to the permanent bed or
trench. This should be of rich soil, as
the celery plant is a heavy feeder and
should be SO situated that it will be
handy to a good water supply. Vari-
GUS methods are followed for blanch-
ing. perhaps the most satisfactory for
the small bed being to dig a trench
and set the plants seven or eight
inches below the surface Of the
ground, the earth being pulled around
the plants when the time for blanch-
ing arrives. Celery plants are just
like any others in that to grow to the
best advantage they should be hoed
frequently. SO that the soil may be
kept in proper condition.

Denver Col. Claims To Have

Denver claims to have the cleanesr
streets Of any city Of its population in
the United States. The advertisement
the municipality has received because
of it's well kept thoroughfares has been
worth many times the cost of keeping
them presentable. Before. during and
after the national democratic conven-
ton last year. newspapers and maya
zines universally made favorable COM
ment upon the clearly apr earance of
Denver. Visitors and tourists are like
wise liberal in their praise of this fea-
ture Of the city's beauty. Figuring
the population at 100000. the last cen
sus. 1T costs every resident at the ra-
ito of 60 cents per annum to keep the
streets. highways and alleys clean. The
cleaning is done scientifically and sys-
tematically. The total mileage paxed
streets for cleaning In 1900 Is 1864,
paved alleys 1900. In addition. fully
five miles of sidewalks are flushed by
machinery every night during the sew,
