WATER SITUATION DOESN'T IMPROVE
Fairview Reservoir is Now Down 303 Inches-At Mohe
gan Lake 1900 Feet of Pipe are Lad-Second Well
Driver Arrived Here Wednesday, Drinking Water
Should Be Boiled.

The measurement taken at Fairview
reservoir on Wednesday by Superin-
tendent Cookery of the water depart
mont showed the water to be 303 inches
below high water mark, the drop being
OF the rate Of three inches a day. The
supsrntende states that the large
strziner has been lowered by the diver
and the welihouss there cleaned out as
never before. while a strainer has been
fitted to the pipe which will permit the
draining Of the pond If necessary. He
says that too much emphasis cannot be
given to the fact that all water taken
from the city mains now should be
boiled before il is used for drinking
purposes. The pond is far below the
point from which II was ever intended
water should be drawn and to be on
the side OF safety this sterilization
should be done. 1t is in the interests
OF good health and a precautionary
method.
The diver has been at work at Mo-
hesan lake this week. where the pipe
in the pond has been plugged so that
the connection can be made there at
any time as far as that work is con-
Cerned. There have bean laid about
J 500 feet of the overground pipe line,
which is somewhat less than hale of the
distance to be covered.

quite often, but says that water will
be found anywhere if the well is only
driven deep enough. He did not place
much faith in the method, as he had
seen it tried often. While he hoped

the bending of the dousing rod. would

Need of Beds for CONSERVATIVES.

The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
says that in seven states, Alabama,
Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oklahoma,
Wyoming and Utah, with a combined
population of owe 5000, 900, not one
bed for consumptives has been pro-
vided. In nine states and territories,
Alaska, Delaware, Florida, Kansas,
Mississippi, South Carolina, South Da-
kota, Vermont and West Virginia, the
number of beds for consumptives in
each case is less than fifty, while the
combined population of these states is
over 1000, 900. On the basis of 400
deaths to a million of population,
which is approximately the present
rate in the United States, there would
be nearly 5000 deaths annually from
tuberculosis in these IA states, with at
least 10000 cases of this disease all
the time, and less than 500 beds to
care for them.
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1910-06-09

starts quicker and progresses
rapidly when this precaution is OBJ
served than when a rough and jagged
surface is left. 1t frequently happens
that, in order to obtain the best re-
suits in removing large branches, two
cuts should be made-that is, the
branch should be sawed off eighteen
inches or two feet above the point
of its origin in order to prevent split
ting down and tearing off a consider
able portion Of bark. After the weight
of the branch has been lessened by
cutting away the main part, a second
cut al be made and the stub held in
position until the cut is completed,
thus preventing the splitting down
and tearing of the bark, Gas shown in
accompanying illustration) which is
likely to result from the careless re-
moval Of large branches. The evil re-
suits of splitting can frequently be
overcome by cutting first on the I'M
der side of the limb and then upon
the upper side, so that the breaking
of the tissue ecu hear the middle
OF the wound instead of at one side.
When this is the case, tearing and
splitting seldom occur.

WASHES FOR SCALE INSECTS
United States Department of Agricul-
ture Gives an Effective Remedy
for Pest.

A report of the United States de-
partment Of agriculture says: Any
good soap is effective in destroying
~soft-bodied insects, such as plant lice
and young or s%oft-bodied larvae. AS
winter washes, in very strong solu-
ton, they furnish one of the safest
and most effective means against
scale insects. The soaps made of fish
oil, and sold under the name Of whale
oil soaps, are often especially val
liable, but variable in composition and
merits. A soap made with caustic
potash rather than with caustic soda,
as Is commonly the case, and not con
tanning more than 80 per cent. of wa
ter should be demanded, the potash
soap yielding a liquid in dilution more
readily sprayed and more effective
against insects. The soda SOAP washes
are apt to be %gelatinous when cold,
and difficult or impossible to spray,
except when kept at a very high tenn
perature. For plant lice and delicate
larvae, such as the pear slug, a
strength obtained by d~issolving half a
pound Of soap in a gallon of water is
sufficient. Soft soap will answer as
well as hard, but at least double the
quantity should be taken.
