In the average day there were
4 81 fires with an average cost of
81, 255 49, making u daily fire
waste of $IS 254
The proportion of loss to value
ieopardized is growing less each
year owing to increased efficiency
of fire departments. That is to
say, the firemen don't let a fire
burn as big hole as they once did {.
The average value of the dwell.
ings, contents included, which got
afire was $3, 100, and the average
damage was $40.
The impoi tant causes sh wing
the greatest increase were lightning
and stoves too near wood.
For each dollars worth of value
in. the buildings fired there was
81 5 cents worth of insurance.
SO, about three millions of the loss
was borne by the individual own
er, while nearly four millions was
divided up between all the owners
carrying insurance.
The fire loss per capita in the
state is %l 81 in states having no
fire marshal it averages 50 AZ. In
our small towns and farming dis.
tricts, it is SLIP; in cities ~ %
and $i25 more IS paid by each
person for the protection of fire
department.
The cities having more than
eight thousand population, as
shown by the last census, now
have a population of 1,734, ,2G7
which is 3S per cent. of the entire
population of the state. But they
had three, fifths of the fires and
over half the fire loss. The small
er towns and farms, with nearly
double the population furnished
40 per cent. of the fires and Al per
cent. of the loss.
The sound value of the property
fired in the larger cities is 81 per
cent. of the whole amount jeopar-
died in the state.
Taking the state as whole the
loss on buildings afire was III per
cent. of their sound value.
In the s. 322 buildings fired with
a loss of 6,6Sl,7O3, the loss which
would have resulted had the fir
not been put out was $3S. 800. 1877.
This figure given for the amount
of value put in jeopardy does not
include the loss which would have
occurred in adjoining buildings had
the fire been allowed to spread.
The insurance on the buildings in
which fires occurred was $40, 758 :
3OS.
Although the value of insurable
property in the state has doubled
since the fire marshal's office was
establish ed, the fire loss has been
reduced from clever to seven mil
lions.
Ohio gets insurance cheaper than
either of the five states adjoining
it. w. S. RoaERs,
State Fire Marshal.

Government statistics show that

In other words, West Virginians

ing, but it is probably not an ex-
aggeration to say that at least
: DOC, 900 acres could be added to
the productive lands of that state.
OF the lands actually under cult
walton, only a small portion is
farmed to the best advantage.
These figures, in measure ex-
plain the high cost of living about

plant. There is a great work in
the state for those who are en-
deavoring to arouse interest and
stimulate intelligent effort in agri-
cultural pursuits.
The distribution Of rainfall, the
steady temperature, the long
growing seasons, the variety of
soil, promise pre-eminence in agri-
culture when science and Drawn
unite to produce the result. Iowa

WORK OF The GENEALOGIST
His Compensation Depends On His
Ability To Get Up Handsome
Family Tree.

The principal workers from the
outside in the library of congress
are those who are hunting up gen.
ealogies. They begin early and
work late at this task, and they
are paid variously, according to
the genealOgies they work out,
declares the Washington Herald.
ITO trace down an ordinary
genealogy, said one of these re-
searchers the other day, Il receive
$50, but if am able to procure a
real handsome genealogy with a
duke or a baron or a touch of roy
atty in it, then l get almost any
price my conscience allows me to
charge. One American family

family happens to live outside of

getting up lovely family tree for
them, which included the privilege
of using a coat of arms with royal
quarterings. | believe they were
called down for using this coat of
arms in England, and 50 they lay
it aside when they are in Europe;
but in America it appears in great
splendor on their stationery, car
rlage doors and table linen, and it
IS said that the women of the fam
lily have it embroidered on their
lingerie, being unaware of the
fact that the distaff side OF the
family are not entitled to the coat
OF arms, but only the quarterings
of their fathers and mothers
arms on lozenge. Don't pity
the poor genealogist. for we are
probably as well paid for our
work as any of those who must
work for living

Why Turkeys Are Scarce,

Science has at last discovered
why the turkey is so scarce that
Its price has become prohibitive
tor many Thanksgiving table
the big bird has been literally wip-
ed out in New England by appen-
dlcitis. More than this, the dis
ease has spread as far south as
Virginia, and is already invading
Michigan, which, up to the pre-
sent time, has for years been the
chief breeding place for turkeys.
So serious is the danger of a
virtual extinction Of the national
bird that a thorough investigation
OF the causes of the disease and
It's possible prevention is being
made by such weIl-known scien.
fists as Dr.. Theobald Smith and
DR.. E. E, Tyzzer, of the Harvard
Medical School, and by DR.. Philip
B. Hadley, of the State expert
ment station OF Rhode Island.
The same disease which has de-
cimated turkeys has of late spread
to game birds, such as partridge
and quail, and the investigation in
this special line is being prosecut-
ed by DR.. George w. Field, of the
Massachusetts fish and game COM
mission. The findings OF all these
men have agreed that the old
fashioned "turkeyail" or black
head, which thousands of farm
ers have beWailed as the bane of
the valuable flock Of Thanksgiving
birds, is the only outward Sign OF
disease, which starts from a
small living organism, and which
produces in the intestines of the
turkey or partridge an inflammation
similar to that of appendicitis in
man.
The organism which infects the
doomed birds has been variously
identified simply as an amoeba
and more especially termed the
"Coccidium avium, but under
either name it has done its work
and the experts unite in saying
that once the disease has attacked
a partridge or game bird there
is no hope. Although the disease
is almost exactly the same, and in
the same location as appendicitis
in man, nobody thought it worth
while to perform au operation for
appendictomy on birds.
