THE activities Of the public health
/ and marine hospital service, to
which is intrusted most Of the general
work of guarding the country against
contagion from abroad and preventing
its spread at home, form the topic of
a paper by Surgeon General Wyman
In the public health report.
The document was prepared for the
American Public Health association
which recently met at Milwaukee.
This organization Il composed of rep
resentatives from Canada, Mexico and
Cuba, as we'll as from the United
States, and the paper was regarded as
Of especial interest to them.
Beginning with 1.-The utmost circum'
ference of the influence of the organ

protective measures at foreign ports
He shows that medical officers Of the
bureau are located in most Of the sea
coast cities Of Asia and South and
Central America, and at some of those
of Europe. The service also is liber
ally represented in Hawaii, Porte

UTASHINGTON.-The census re
w turns on the large cities Of the
country are now complete. The fig
ures show that most OF them have had
a healthy growth during the ten years
since the last count was made, but
some Of them have fallen out Of the
places they occupied then and their
places have been taken by other cities.
OF the many that have tried. in the
past ten years, to climb into the
l0O,0 900 class, only five have succeeded.
Among the ten largest cities there
has been only one important change
of position. Baltimore has lost sixth
place to Cleveland. Baltimore's popu-
lation, as officially stated, is 55S, Ass,
while Cleveland has $50 663. The gain
in Baltimore over 1900 was 81 per
cent
A comparison of 2s cities in the
100000 class shows that the aggre-
gate population is 13,596,S19, as
against 1O,S76.O12 in 1900 and 7,9O4.14O
in 1890

PROPER DEPTH
FOR FLOWING
Excellent Method Is to P1ow an
Inch or Two Deeper Every

By C. M. MILLER.)


One of my neighbors started his fall
plowing early this year. l saw him
recently scufling along behind his
two little mustang ponies that were
trying to drag 14-inch plow. He
was turning up the soil about three
inches deep, and when he came to a
particularly hard spot he bore down
on the handles and let the plow point
skim close to the surface. don't be-
lieve that the soil four inches below
the surface ever saw the light in any
of his fields.
No wonder he is always complain
ing of poor crops. once suggested
that II he would use ten-inch plow
and set 1t to run even five or six inch.

to sink subsoil plow deep into the

SEEDS INJURED
BY MOISTURE,
Varieties Like Blue Grass Wiu
Heat Quickly If Not Dried In
Sun or With Artificial
Heat of Some Kind.
CBy CHAs. X. wEATHERsoN)

(By CHAS X. WEATHERSONO
The drying Of seeds affects their
germinabillty to considerable ex-
tent. Some seed, like blue grass seed,
will quickly heat and spoil If not
thoroughly dried in the sun or with
artificial heat.
Much of the poor blue grass seed
has been made poor by being too
quickly put in large receptacles where
it does not have an opportunity to
thoroughly dry.
Even when piled in the field after
1t has been taken from the blue grass
tops it has been known to heat suf-
ficiently to spoil 1t.
It is unfortunate that when man
has a lot of blue grass seed that has
been 80 spoiled that he cannot resist
the temptation to sell 1t for good seed.
Many other seeds are injuriously af-
fected by too great a moisture content,
but few so much as the blue grass
seed. The higher the starch content
of the seed the more necessary does 1t
appear to be to keep it from damp
ness.
Corn, being high in percentage OF
starchy matter, must be kept from
dampness or its germinability will be
destroyed. So readily does 1t heat
under warm, moist conditions that II
is regarded as very difficult to send Q
cargo of corn across the equator.
1t may be accepted as good rule
that all seeds should be kept from
dampness, most of all such seeds a:

In some cases doubtless the damp
ness with fair degree of heat start
the germ to developing, which later
when the seed is again dried, is al

When the weather in the fall
