Few factors are so closely related
to public health as that of sewage dis
posal. In this matter, at least, the
city dweller still has the better of his
country cousin.
In bulletin number OF the Engi-
neering Experiment Station OF the Uni
versity of Missouri, entitled Santa
ton and Sewage Disposal for Country
Homes" the author. w. C. Davidson
points out the dangers of poor sewage
disposal.
Two of the common causes" he
says, "of the spread OF typhoid fever
are the contamination of the water
supply and the transmission OF the dis
ease by the ordinary house fly. That
flies do transmit disease. notably ty-
phoid fever. there is no longer any
doubt"
i cistern Or well may become cor
laminated by the seepage of sewage

to appear pure.

1T MAKES NO DIFFERENCE, BUT
"chauffeur" Organization Is Old Quad
Club, Says r. N. kIass.

"chauffeur" Organization Is Old Quad
Club, Says r. N. kIass.
To the Editor Of the University Missourian:
In the last few days there has been
dramatic club organized, the Quad
rangle club, a reorganization of the
old Quadrangle club of former years.
A few years ago the Quadrangle club
dropped the name of Quadrangle and
adopted the name @" club, and the
club which is presenting "The Chauf-
feur" next Friday night is the sur
vivor of the Quadrangle club. The
leading lady has been with the club
three years, while the club which calls
itself the Quadrangle has only one
member who has ever been connected
as an organizer of the club at the be-
ginning of any school year. The 20"
club has one member who has been
three years with the club and two who
were with the club last year.
1t is immaterial to us if there are
a dozen Quadrangle clubs organized,
but it does make a difference whether
we are the old Quadrangle club or its
survivor.

MlscioNaRiEG FROM THE FARM
Mould Convert the Urkante to a Ru-
raj Life,

raj Life.
The gospel OF back to the farm" is
being preached 20 factory and other
workers in various cities by mission
aries who travel from place to place
in spec:al cars. The cars are deco
rated attractively with farm products
and are fitted with seats, like small
lecture hall. Sometimes there are
two cars. one being used for the en-
hibits and the other for the lectures.
These cars are sent out by railroads
for the purpose OF inducing people in
the east to move into the unsettled
districts of the west. The railroads
receive Their reward for the effort
when the settlers till the land and be-
gin to send out freight in the form
of farm produce to the central mar
kets. But while the railroads benefit
themselves by the work, they also ben
eft the workers, who learn where it
will be possible for them tc go and
improve their condition by achieving
independence. On behalf of those
engaged in this form OF missionary
work it can be said that they are
careful not to present overdrawn &C
counts of the land where settlers are
wanted. for disappointed immigrant
is poor advertisement for any local
ity.
Cars of this description are seldom
seen in Chicago but they often visit
the towns and cities throughout Illi-
nois, giving especial attention to
places where there are large facto-
ries. Localities where farm lands are
high priced and SO firmly held that
the younger generation finds it diff
cult to obtain foothold offer good
fields for the activities of these work
|ers.
1t is an interesting sight to visit
one of these cars and note the careful
attention that is. given to all the
speaker says. People of all descrip-
lions are in the seats listening anX-
iously for some word that will con-
vince them that it is well to leave
their old homes. Most of them have
never travelled and have not seen the
west. The description of the orchards
and homes of the West has a pleasant
ring to such auditors.
1t is an unusual event and one to
be remembered. especially in smaller
town, for an exhibit car to be pushed
in on siding and thrown open to the
inspection of those who in no other
way could see the products of the soil
on the great stretch of country from
the Mississippi to the Pacific coast
"A new car seventy feet long has just
been started out by the Northern Pa
cific railroad through all the eastern
and southern states. The car is light
ed by electricity and acetylene gas
and contains exhibits collected at a
number of fairs in the west
A similar car was started out dur
ing the worlds fair and was on exhib-
ition for time in Chicago. Since
that time work of this sort has been a
regular feature. Prior to the time
when these cars were started on the
road most of the attention of those
who wanted settlers was given to en-
igrants from the old world, but now
some of the most desirable settlers are
to be found in the localities where
conditions approach those on this side
of the Atlantic-George Barkus.
