of yellow fever for year, although
there were ,244 cases with 3lO
deaths in 1900. In the yellow fever
district about Rio de Janiero, in Bra.
I'll, the fight has been strenuous one.
In new book, sir, Rupert w. Boyce,
Dean of the Liverpool School of Tro-
pical Medicine, states that Brazil had
1852 deaths from yellow fever, alone
in 1898; but the practical application
OF the new knowledge reduced the
deaths to 94S in 1904. Early in 1909
aneffort as made to complete the
work. Not less than 1880 breeding
places of larvae were destroyed, $780,
575 miscellaneous water receptacles
were examined, 44,343 reservoirs and
604,2S3 regular water containers were
overhauled. as many as sI4,65O sinks
and water.closets were oiled with pc.
troleum, and 2,545 carloads of tin
cans, etc, were removed from yards.
A ton and half of pyrethrum and
thirty tons of sulphur were used. The
labor had its reward, for when sum.
mer came, though it brought more
than $4,000 strangers the Brazilian
capital was free from yellow fever.
And no longer is the hot season anti.
cipated with the old dread.

KEEP HER MEMORY GREEN.

Sunday, May l4th is Mothers
Day" The day set apart for the
wearing of a white flower in memory
of that glorious being who gave birtl
10 the human race.
Looking into the horoscope of life,
one is struck with wonder at the
glorious work which has been done
by woman. Through strife, turmoil,
pestilence, famine, internecine war,
in every avenue of tribulation, trial
and suffering, she has been a factor
for good-true there have been ex.
ceptions to the general rule, but
when one considers even those excep-
lions and the conditions under which
they have been brought about, one is
more than willing to extend the hand
OF liberation.
At any rate, wear the flower for
Mothers sake" for the love she
bears to you, for the suffering and
travail she has passed through.
You may pirate OF your soldier heroes
You may rant of the sailor true,
You may go to the isles of the salt,
sea,
Or be watt DER the ocean blue,
But the tale, the song, the story
Is of that mother brave and true.
Keep the memory green.
Don't forget Mothers Days and
white flower Sunday. May IA.

VICTORIES IN THE
WAR ON MOSQUITOES

The war against mosquitoes is one
OF the most notable contests OF mod
ern times. In 1S97.1S9S, Surgeon Ma.
jor Ross, of the British army, then
in the Indian Medical Service, traced
the life history of the malarial para.
site in mosquitoes, showing how these
insects convey malaria from man to
man, and in 1900 Surgeons Reed, Car.
roll, Agramonte, and Lazear, of the
United States army proved that one
species of mosquito-the stegomyia
caloQus--is the sole carrier of vel
low fever The discoveries have made
tropical lowlands habitable.
Mosquito regulations have driven
maleria IRON the Philippines and the
Panama Canal Zone; and through sim
liar measures Havana was reported
in November 1902, to have had no case

I The COW never tires of silage.

able.
!; Twenty acres OF corn put into
the silo are worth more In feed

soon have one.
The average ensilage ration Is !
forty pounds per COW daily. This .
is seven and three-6fth tons per

tons Of silage. Can you find .

roughage at the rate of two
cows to the acre? .
The COW Is the final judge as

Is its ultimate consumer" and
when she says by full pail and
satisfied expression that silage
is the best dairy feed the wise I
