The Cause of Malaria.
State Board of Health Bulletin,

State Board of Health Bulletin.
From 1850 until within recent
years people believed malaria
was due to the breathing of air
laden with moisture and the odor
of decaying vegetation. AS this
kind of air is invariably associat-
ed with swamps, malaria, for
some time, has been recognized
as a disease of low, marshy cour-
tries. The word, malaria, is a
combination of the two Italian
words, NAL and aria, which mean
bad air.
In the nineties of the last GEN.
tury a party of Englishmen, peo-
pie living where malaria is un-
known, selected the most mala-
rious spot in the world, the Ro-
man Campagna, for an interest
ing expel iment, the results of
which are. absolutely incompati-
bic with the old idea regarding
the cause of the disease. In that
malarious region, where nearly
everybody suffered from the
disease, these Englishmen had
erected, within few feet of each
other, two cheap cottages. One
provided with double swinging
doors and closely screened, was
mosquito proof; the other, with
out screens, was perfectly open
70 the mosquitoes. The party Of
Englishmen divided into two
groups, one group inhabi,ing the
mosquito-proof house. The other
group the unscreened house
Both groups were fed from the
same kitchen, drank from the
same well. and breathed the
same air. The group living ir
the screened house remained
perfectly well; the group livinf

Armies of 17-Year Locusts Pre-
dicted.

Statesville Landmark.
"The scientists are predicting, ="
says the Charlotte Chronicle,
that two great armies Of the IT.
year locusts will visit this coun-
try next spring and the Audubon
Society is taking advantage of
this prediction to get in a word
for the protection of insect-eat-
ing birds. According to the
scientists, the locusts are now
preparing to burst forth in count
less multitudes over the fields of
both North and South. Apple,
peach and pear orchards and
vineyards, will feel their de-
structive power, the government
authorities admit, unless an
abundant force of the wild birds
is preserved to lead the fight. "
The scientists are useful folks
and know a lot, but it is just as
we'll not to get excited about the
coming OF the 17-year locusts.
They may appear in spots and
The Robesonian., 1910-11-07

may do some damage. but that
they will cover the country as
with a blanket and destroy
everything in their path. as
might be inferred from this
statement, is not to be expected.
The coming of the swarms of IT.
year locusts has been predicted
more than once in the past Is
years and ut one swarm of coz
sequence has visited this part of
the country in thirty years and
they did no harm. 1t is a good
idea, however, to protect the
birds for their usefulness in de-
stroylng insects generally.

disease.
An Italian expert on malaria
named Grassi discovered form
of the disease peculiar to certain
species of birds. By confining
mosquitoes in cages with birds
with this disease and afterwards
transferring the mosquitoes to
new cages with healthy birds,
he could reproduce the disease.
Ross, another English au-
thority, with the aid Of the mi
croscope, traced the malaria
germ, sucked into the insects s
body in biting, into the walls of
the mosquitoes stomach, where
it underwent a regular series of
changes. thence to the salivary
of the insect, when it was eject
ed into the unfortunate next bit
ten.
All this evidence makes out a
clear case against the mosquito
as the carrier of malaria. If this
is correct. the destruction of this
insect should invariably be fol-
lowed by the decrease or COM
plete eradication of malaria. This
final evidence, the conclusive
evidence of actual results, will
be furnished in next week S
article.

new rule, to the effect that teams
must play on the grounds on dates
upon which they are scheduled to
appear, was passed.
Hereafter all games will be called
at O'Clock in the afternoon. New
arrangements were perfected for en-
gaging umpires. Heretofore high
school boys have served, but these
have not been very attentive and Of
ten two to three have officiated in q
single game
The governors present yesterday
were: The Misses Van Nuis, Mac
William, Andersen, Martin, Slugg
and Miller; Messrs. Walker, Lloyd
and Leffier

BIGGEST FOOT
RACE To Be
HELD MONDAY

The biggest foot race ever at
tempted in this city is being planned
for next Monday night in the Audi
torium. The management is arrang-
ing for q contest between five or six
of the feetest boys In the state. 1t
will be for ten miles for big purse.
This will probably conclude the in
door foot racing season for this city.
Among the entries will be such
good runners as John G.. Hayes,
George Forbes, Johnny Sullivan,
George G. Benfer, John Kirk and
George Stevens.
Hayes we all know. He has proved
himself a victor in most of the re-
cent ten-mile events. Young Forbes,
the game little track artist from
Newark, will tryt to regain lost
laurels. As for Johnny Sullivan,
there is little to say. He is we'll
known and in this event he will
make desperate efforts to avenge his
recent defeat by Hayes. Benfer is
extremely anxious to blot out the
miserable showing he made in a
match race with Forbes here recent
ly. He has postponed a match in
Paterson to run in this event. John
Kirk, who halls from Newark, is said
to be one OF the best runners in the
state. George Stevens is that five
mile sensational youth from Railway
who sprung surprise on local
sports.
In conjunction with the big race
there will be two preliminary events,
entries for which are now open.

A close and warmly contested
game of basketball resulted last
night between the Dexter A. G.. and

Auditorium. The Dexters, the young

fought battle, the score being Is to

the visitors, and Bob Macan's ability
to score on them, caused the visitors
to lose.
The contest was close and waxed
warm from the beginning. The Dex-
ters showed form and the Arrows
played far better on this occasion
than upon their recent visit here.
The score was 6 to A in favor of
the Arrows at the end of the first
half. Several times the teams took
turns at leading in the concluding
chapter. The visitors showed excel
