Owing to the prevalence of infantile

throughout the country, government in

Of the disease. This was decide on yes
terday after conference between Sur
geon General Wyman of the public health

oratory of that service. The investigation
will be started as soon as DR.. w. IL.
Frost, member of Dr. Anderson's staff,
returns from Mason City, Iowa, where he
is studying the disease.
The nature of the germ which causes
the disease Is, according to DR.. Ander-
son, a practical mystery to medical sci
ence.

"Thc appalling list of deaths of infants, -
said DR.. Anderson, 'is not the most dis
tressing feature of the disease, as thou
sands Of children are permanently Grip
pied or deformed, the disease not being
necessarily fatal. 1t seldom attacks a
child older than five years, but even
adults occasionally have been victims.
I'm my opinion the disease is both in
fictitious and contagious: certainly infec-
tious, as has been proved by experiments.
The disease begins to assert itself early In
June, reaches Its height in July and Au-
gust and passes away in September"

can q Il greater profit on an
acre that we make Yield a bale. and
we can make big money if we make
the acre give two bales. The net
profit increases as the yield per acre
increases.
The first consideration of the cot
ton planter should be how to make
more pounds on fewer acres. The
solution is a thorough preparation Of
the land before planting: to use the
best seed adapted to the soil on each
particular farm; d liberal and intelli-
gent application of plant food and
thorough cultivation Of the plant.
This is expensive farming and can
C1lly be put i'll operation successfully
when the land in free from sLumps
and roots so improved implements
may be used, and where the land is
thoroughly drained. Cotton is nat
urally a dry weather plant and will
not do its best IN sobbed or poorly
drained soils. Better drainage is one
of the first things that Robson coun-
ty needs, and any practical plan look
