THE COUNTY HOSPITAL JOB.

The Tribune on Monday last voiced
the sentiments of the medical profession
in this city in opposition to the con
struction Of county hospital by the
County Commissioners, We said in
voicing that protest that there was a
job in connection with the proposition.
We are all the more convinced that job
berry is the main Indictment thereto
from the fact that the organ of the
Federal bunch here comes 70 the sup
port of the proposed hospital.
The construction Of proper hospital
for the county would cost good deal
more than the $4,000 estimated for it,;
and the construction Of an inadequate
hospital would be wholly indefensible.
The equipment of modern hospital, to
say nothing Of the cost of constructing
the building, is heavy. The primitive
ideas that would probably govern the
County Commissioners in this matter
are archaic, out Of date, inexpert It
would be money thrown away to have
these incompetents and iobbers under
take any such work. Besides this, such
hospital is altogether unnecessary.
The hospital accommodations in this
city are ample, and every case at the
in6rmsry needing hospital treatment
could be treated in the hospitals in this
city at cost far below what, the cost
would be in this county hospital, even
after it should be constructed, so that
the construction of such n hospital
would be worse than sheer wnste.
However, since there is doubtless a
political Job in it, and rakc-ofTs for
some of the partisan bosses, big and
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1910-06-23

little, it is likely that no private protest
will prevail against the determination
to keep on with this iobbing scheme.
The Tribune, however, enters its pro-
test against it, and hopes that some
means may be found, either by the suit
of some taxpayer enioining further pro
ceedings in this direction, or otherwise,
to put stop to the waste of public
money that is contemplated in this job
for private and personal advantage of
those who are inside the ring.

SCIENCE ON. THE FARM.

Enables the Farmer to Trade So For
SO, Says a Scientist.
Carrying Scientific Agriculture to
the Farmer was recently discussed
By Dean II. L. Russell, University of
! Wisconsin,: Scientific agriculture is
/ permanent agriculture. The Chinese
| have a more fertile soil than ours be-
| cause they have applied scientific ag-
riculture. Holland produces thirty
three bushels of wheat per acre. We
produce thirteen bushels.
Great interest could be aroused by
convincing our people that there is
an undiscovered continent whose soil
is as productive as ours We will find
that continent when we discover the
methods by which our soils can be
made to double their production. Our
experiment stations have discovered
the secret. but that will do no good
until the tillers of the soil understand
It, The publications of our stations
must reach our people and be read by
them. Information must be put in
concrete form; it must be viSualized.
Three things are necessary in farming
first. improved seed; second. improv-
ed production; third, reduction of loss.
We are appointing county demon,
strators who % into each county and
employ the "show me" method Of
farming. Corn. wheat and other grains
and crops are planted and the cultiva-
tion done before the farmer and his
help.
The farmer may be preiudiced
against new methods, but this opposi. |
ton yields when he is shown the bet |
ter way. Wisconsin was driven from |
raising wheat by the chinch bug. but |
this bug was a gOdsend to agriculture
because the farmers went into the
dairy business.
BY growing wheat we increased our
bank account and depleted our soils:
by dairying we both Increase our bank
recount and the fertility Of our farms.

NORTHERN GRAIN APHIS.
Michigan Authority Believes Its Bark

Michigan Authority Believes Its Bark
Is Much Worse Than Its Bite.
Probably the most misleading insect
on the grains if not on the farm is the
common northern grain aphis. 1t col
lects during some seasons in great
numbers on the heads of wheat, rye,
barley, oats, sorghum and other near
relatives of the grass family, some
times fairly packing full the spaces in
the heads Of these plants and seeming
to threaten their very existence. This
gathering in great numbers usually oc-
ours just as the grain is IN the milk.
In all the instances seen by the writer,
r. H. Petit of the Michigan expert
ment station, the threatened injury has
been ayerted by tiny parasites, which
have destroyed the plant lice and re-
duced the loss to a nominal one.
The northern grain aphis appears
very much like other plant lice, both
winged and wingless forms being
found. The color is green with black
markings. The illustration gives an
idea Of its appearance under a strong
lens. Before the grain commences. to
ripen the parasites usually commence
to destroy the lice. These parasites

A POSSIBLE CAUSE oE FAILURE.

Many a failure with alfalfa and clo-
yer seems directly traceable to the
fact that the soil on which the seed
was sown was sour and needed sweet
ening with an application OF lime az
the rate OF two or thre tons per acre.
Where such treatment has followed
previous failure with alfalfa really
remarkable results have been secured.
The lime should be applied TO the land
IN manure With a spreader or spread
with secder OF some Kind which viii
