Let him take a chisel or strong but
cher knife and inspect the roots OF
the wheat plants which are tip-burned,
or which show the so-called sun scald.
At the same time let him 60 on to
some land where there is less liability
of disease; that is. either on new land
or on we'll worked corn land and dig
up some wheat plants which do not
show the tip-burn or sun scald. Then
compare the underground portions OF
the two kinds of plants and think
taht the person who carefully does the
digging will learn lesson with regard
to crop rotation, seed selection and
seed treatment, which no other line
of observation will give.
If you 60 out into your wheat fields
even though the soil is rich and moist,
you will find plants which are not
properly stooling, that have tip-burn
and already have yellow or dead leaves
at the base. You will find on digging
them up that the underground portions
are creosote colored or have creo'
sote spots on the stems underground.
You will find also that many of the
roots are rotted off and perhaps some
new roots are starting at points higher
up. You will find that many stools
have started and died even though
they are shaded from the heat of the
sun.
Young wheat plants should never be
brown or dark colored below the
ground. The natural color is white
OF greenish white.
Plants of wheat which show the por-
lions underground creosote brown or
black colored will never properly stool
regardless of the weather conditions.
They will remain either few stooled
or a single stem sending up one CEN
trail or single stock. If the land is
found to have large spots or areas in

SUICIDE PUBLICITY
Fought BY DOCTORS
"a ~

LOS ANGELES, CAL, July 3.-'Sui.
eide is a private affair. There is no
more justification for publication OF
such accounts than there is for pub
fishing other private Matters
This is the assertion of committee
' of the American Academy of Medicine
! which investigated the question OF
suicide, and in making is report today
requested the press of America to re-
frain from further publication of such
affairs.
IF, however," the report declares.
the members of the press are still
skeptical as to the fact that they are
now accessories to crime, we suggest
that they assist in the study of the
conditions"
A number of suggestions in this re-
spect are made, and it is proposed al
so that if the papers insist upon pub
fishing the scandals and the news of
suicides it be limited to separate
sheet of distinct yellow color, so "clean
minds may avoid corruptin. If such
a method is desirable or athletic news
why not extend it's use?"
THE rapid increase in the death
rate from suicide in the United States
with the conviction that prominent
couse of this deplorable act was to
be found in the suggestive effect of
newspaper publication of details" is
given as the reason for the investi-
cation.
The report further says:
"The average value of human life
has been reckoned at $4,000. On that
basis the loss from suicide in 1908 was
$24,996,0O0. Is. it. worth trying to save
even if one is not actuated by any
higher motive of humanity?"
The publication of suicide news on
the plea of the news is declared to be
makeshift. The report says in
part: r--~'-'-. -.-' -
"Your committee finds that alienists
are practically unanimous in the opin-
ion that the suggestive effect of the
reading of details of suicides is a paw
erful factor in the causation of sui
cides among susceptible individuals.
Newspaper men, while admitting
that the alienists are of the opinion
that such publications are cause of
the crime, and even admitting that
there may be some truth in the opin-
ion, reply that it is the province of the
papers to publish the news. Attempts
to prevent such publication are 'nvas-
ions of the press. They say that the
people demand the news, and it must
be given them.
Considering the occupations we find
that for males the general laborers,
and those engaged in agriculture are
least prone to suicide. Soldiers and
sailors are most prone to die by sui
eide. It is a prominent cause of death
for saloon keepers, brewers, cigar max
ers, servants, architects. bankers, COL
lectors, commercial travellers and drug
gists. tailors. journalists and lawyers.
Among employed women we find
that it. a prominent cause of death
for telegraph and telephone operators
cigar makers and stenographers, in
the order mentioned. The actively
insane or those hopelessly diseased
mentally are not prone to suicide.
If a shocking accident occurs, there
is at once congregated a mob to gloat
over the sight. 1t is the same class
