A DISCUSSION ON
INSANE BUILDING
Commissioners and Others
Visit Proposed Loca-
tons Today.
NO DECISION is REACHED
THIS WILL PROBABLY BE DENIED
THIS AFTERNOON BY TAKING A
POLL OF THOSE WHO MADE IN.
SPECTION.

The Wayne county commissioners
were in session with the county board
of charities and others interested in
the location of the county insane build
ing today. visit was paid to the
county farm, which is one of the pro
posed locations, and to the proposed
site south of the county Jail, this morn
ing. This afternoon a meeting was
held in the commissioners room at
which the defects and good points Of
both locations were brought out.
The appropriation for the institu-
ton has been made. Just as soon as
the location is determined, the COM
missioners will let the contracts. The
commissioners hoped to decide on the
location this afternoon.
Whatever location is the choice of
the majority of those present at this
afternoons session, will be the choice
of the commissioners, according to a
statement made this afternoon by
Robert n. Beeson, chairman. AS there
We're about twenty persons present, in
Guiding several property owners of
South Third street, who opposed the
Jail site, Mr.. Beeson stated that it
would be late this afternoon before the
question would be decided, in all prob
ability.

GOOD BLOOD.

Given good, clean, healthy blood.
Nature will do the rest with any case
of catarrh, inflammatory rheumatism
scrofula, eczema, erysipelas, boils,
pimples, scrofula. or skin disease of
any kind. Good blood invariably
means vigorous appetite, good diges-
ton and strength.
Thus it stands to reason that an eff
fective "alterative" or blood purifier
while it will not cure all diseases, will
help in fighting any disease and will
cure those mentioned above, all of
which comes from bad blood.
Forty years ago DR.. A. B. Simpson,
of Richmond, was known as one of the
most successful physicians in three
states. His success was founded al
most exclusively on one prescription,
the most powerful blood purifier ever
known. After his death this prescrip-
ton was regularly put up as DR.. A.
B. Simpsons Vegetable Compound
1t has been used extensively all over
the country and in forty years has
never failed, even in that most dread
full of all blood diseases, syphilis in
it's worst stage. And when an altera-
tive will do that, it, Of course cleans
and rebuilds blood affected with other
troubles. Simpsons Vegetable Com
pound is purely vegetable and as
harmless as it is effective. 1t is sold

What the Designs of Medicine
Men on Population of
State Are.
MANY BILLS INTRODUCED

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. 23.-If the
BeXar County Medical society sue
ceeds in having the Austin legislature
pass sundry bills it has drafted and
advocated publicity, the population OF
the Lone Star state will within gem
GRAFTON or two consist of only high
hrowed individuals that will look like
an array of statuary of the best period
OF Hellenic art One Of the bills is
designed TO do away with all i'll health
and physical defects due to heredity
by making it impossible through the
agency of Vasectomy for those now so
afflicted to propagate their kind. DR..
G. II. Moody, who has made a special
study of the subject claims that vaSec-
tony viii not interfere in the slight

tions of the body except as to procrea-
ton. Habitual drunkards, mnatics,
criminals and those affected with her

passing a race better equipped ment-
ally and physically would be the re-
suit. DR.. Moody argues that the soon

the better it will be for the human
race, propagation by the mentally and
ply sically unfit having been conclu-
sively shown to be the agent of the
general descneracy of race
Some time ago an investigation into
the status and history of a number of
insane confined in state institutions
revealed ample proof of DR.. Moodys
contention. In practically all cases
one or both parents of lunatics had
been confirmed drunkards. Among
other cases there was one of wom-
an whose father had been a heavy al
cohOlic and who was being admitted
to the asylum regularly once year
for treatment of recurrent mania. 1t
was shown that she was the mother
of ten children, two of which had
been married to drunkardS while two
others were practically imbeciles.
Among other measures to be fostered
by the association are the establish
ment of state asylum for drunkards
and the criminal insane. the creation
of state lunacy commission and the
employment by the public schools of
male and female physicians who are
to watch over the health of the chill
Gren The society will also take steps
towards the creation Of national
board of health.

DISC PLOUGHS AND MOULD
BOARD PLOUGHS.

The relative advantages of disc and
mould-board ploughs is attracting the
attention of many farmers and planters.
The mould-board plough may be con-
sidered most suitable on moist or irri-
gated land while the disc plough is t.
be preferred when the soil is dry and
hard. Indeed, special advantage con-
nected with the disc implement, is that it
may frequently be used for ploughing
land that has become too dry and hard
for the mould-board This is often of
much value, as it is not SO necessary to
wait for rain, and the seed can be plant
ed at the proper time. On the other
hand, where the land is in fit con-
dition for p1oughing, and is not too dry,
the mould-board plough pulverizes and
turns the soil more satisfactorily.
The disc plough is lighter in
draught, does not require sharpen
ing so often, cuts through trash
better, and does not clog SO easily. A
24-inch disc is best for general purposes.
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-04-01

into a male, and the other to form a
germ or egg which will grow into a
female. When this has been shown
to be true of all domestic animals and
plants, which is highly probable, time and
money will be saved which are now spent
in vain attempts to change the proper
tions.
A sixth important discovery is that
nearly all new qualities in our cult
waited plants and in many animals arise
suddenly as small or large "sports"
1t has been shown that one Of the best
especially cereal and forage crops, is to
herited changes, which are often hid
of the plants. It has been shown in
several cases that with pure lines OF
plants, bred from a single seed by
self-fertilization, selection has no influ-
ence whatever in changing the type,
though continued over several years.
Permanent changes in such cases only
come when sport arises.
Lastly, the most important advance
in the study of breeding and inheritance
in recent years is the proper and full
application of mathematics to record the
variations and heredity Of domestic ami
mails and cultivated plants. This prom
ises to give us nearly as exact a know1-
edge of breeding as we have of cleo
trical processes for instance. Luther
Burbank, by his personal genius and
skill, can breed many strikingly new
varieties, but his skill will die with him.
When, however, it is all down in figures,
breeding new varieties will be more
like setting up new electrical-lighting
plant, where the results may be calcu-
lated beforehand. There are, think,
few departments of knowledge which,
on the whole, show a more rapid ad
vance, at present, than does the study
of inheritance and breeding; and few
which seem to promise more for the
near future, both in the knowledge which
is power, and in the dollars, which repre-
sent power of another sort. The Agri
Experiment Stations of New Jersey,
Maine, Nebraska, Virginia and Connec-
ticut have published valuable bulletins
on this subject
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-04-01

In the ten years of this century which
have already passed there have been
some remarkable discoveries with II
domestic animals and cultivated plants.
portant discoveries in the next few yea1s.
of no small interest to all who grow
plants or raise animals.
1t has been discovered that all Our
common domestic animals and cult
waited plants are really double through
out, and in every minute part Of their
structure. The minute cells of which
all our animals and plants are built up
Gas seen under the microscopy, just
as house may be built of bricks, have
each an active center, one-half Of which
is derived from one of their parents
and the other half from the other par
ent When we have bred a scrub COW
to pure Jersey bull, we call the calves
half-blood Jerseys. But it is not only
the blood cells which have the double
structure, and we might as we'll call
the calves, half-bone Jerseys, half-meat
Jerseys or half-hide Jerseys. For
hoof, hide, horn, hair, color
cells, eyes, lungs, and every other part is
half from the dam and half from the
sire, even though it does not show it on
the outside. This applies even to the
udders of the heifer calves for they will
be half Jersey in their minute structure
though the Jersey sire did not possess
milk-glands. It is not like house built
half of clay bricks and half of con-
crete blocks; but as if each brick were
made from a mixture of half clay and
half concrete. This double structure is
not a guess, nor a theory; but a visible
fact which anyone can study for himself
after he has gone through some months
training in the use of the microscope and
the methods of studying the microscopic
world
The second discovery is that (except
in the most closely inbred strainS), the
two halves which make up every cell of
the animal or plant are different in some
respects, though nearly alike in most
others. Some of the offspring may in
herit one-half, and some of them may in
herit the other half, from one of the
parents. So the calves of the same bull
and cow, or the seedlings from the same
fruit, are often different. Among am
mails, only by the closest inbreeding can
such differences be avoided. The closer
the inbreeding of pure strain, as the
Jersey, the more nearly alike are the
offspring. In most plants, the closest
imaginable inbreeding can be had by
allowing the flowers to be self-fertilized
and then the strain will become uniform
The two halves which make up thu
structure of each of Our domestic ami
mails or cultivated plants are derived
from it's two parents So the offspring
sometimes seem to inherit more from
their grandparents than from their ac-
tual sire and dam When we breed lot
of calves from pure horned Hereford
COWS by pure polled Hereford bull,
every minute part Cor cell) of the calves
,uill haue both the inheritance Of horns
