Especial Correspondence of The Starr
WASHINGTON, March 20.-ln spite
of all the work done to prevent the
spread {of bovine tuberculosis, the
progress of the disease has been more
rapid than the progress of the work
against it. OF far greater moment
than the annual toll of $4,000 900
gathered by this malady is the sac
rifice of human life and the impair
ment of human health from tubercu-
losis, almost universally regarded by
scientific investigators to be due to the
existence of tuberculosis in animals
from which milk and other foods are
derived. Such are the emphatic state
ments of a bulletin just issued by DR..
A. D. Melvin, chief of the Bureau of
Animal Industry.
mo one who is informed on the sub
ject," says DR.. Melvin, can fail to re-
alize that something should be done
to check the rapid spread Of tuber'
culosis among cattle and hogs, and
to control and eventually eradicate IT,
AS this disease in hogs is invariably
contracted from tuberculous cattle
the suppression Of disease in one viii
do away with it in the other. The
problem of eTadicating this disease te
daily becoming more difficult as the
affection becomes more widespread #
is much easier to deal with disease
affecting only about five per cent 81
our cattle than it will be to combat
it later if we permit it to spread &C
forty or fifty per cent, as is the case
in some parts of Europe"
Among the recommendation made
is one to prevent the dissemination o.
the disease by preventing contact be-
tween healthy and tubercular cattle
The tuberculin test is also urged.

SUPREME COURT WAYS.

When the supreme court of the Unit

each Monday the room is filled with
lawyers, clerks, newspaper men and
spectators. Routine announcements
are made by the chief justice in a
voice no one can understand. Decis-
ions of great moment are render
ed by other justices in mumbled words
which are not heard. Lawyers, clerks,
newspaper men and spectators stare
hard at the honorable justice who may
be talking or reading, some with hands
curved in a sound board so that they
can catch a few words if possible. But
no one in the courtroom shouts Loud

STORIES OF THE
SEAMY SIDE

The following is the report of the
Humane Officer for the month ending
March 31st, 1911: During this month,
four children's cases have been
brought to the notice of your officer.
First. Of a Porto Rican mother
having six children, aged from one
year to eight. This woman makes no
honest effort to earn a living; she is
away from home nearly every day,
leaving the children to care for them
selves, where she goes and how she
spends her time is a matter of con-
lecture. The neighbors say, that the
children frequently go all day long
with nothing to eat. The children
were dirty, full of vermin, and with
no clothing except what they had on,
and that was dirty and ragged. They
had no plates nor dishes, but fed like
animals. The only thing they had in
the way Of furniture was dirty mat
tress and ragged blanket. This wom-
an is apparently in good physical
condition and capable of earning at
least something for the support OF
her children. l took the matter up
with the Juvenile Court, and had three
of the girls, aged, four, three and two
years respectively, placed in the
Catholic Orphauage. The mothers
case was taken up in the Police Court
and she was sentenced to thirty days
in Jail for wilful neglect of her chill
dren. The bay she took to Jail with
her, and her two boys, aged. seven
and eight, are being cared for by the
Associated Charities until the moth ~
comes out Of Jail. I hope that the
sentence imposed on this woman will
serve as a warning to other women Of
similar character.
Second. OF a Hawaiian girl, age
thirteen, with we'll developed tuber-
culosis. This case was reported by
one of the district nurses from Pa
lama Settlement. Her pulse was mucf
over hundred and the girl was
compelled by the relatives with whom
she was living to do house work anC
care for a baby, for which work she
was entirely unfit. The nurse said i
was cruel to work her and she should
have been in bed. | advised hel
relatives to send her to the Day Cam
where she would have the proper cart
and treatment. which has been done
Third. OF a Hawaiian family o
six children, ranging in age from
seven years to eight months. This
was also a case reported from thu
Palama Settlement. The nurse founC

care for them during the day. Thu

LAW AND THE QUEEN.

The quaintness of many provisions
of British law is curiously illustrated
in the status of the queen of England.
So far as her majesty's private bust
ness is concerned, she is not regarded
by the laws and customs OF England
as a married woman at all. She is the
only woman in Great Britain who does
not come within the scope of the mar
ried woman's property act The idea
in all this is that affairs of state con
sumo all the time of the king, and
therefore no responsibility for the
queens private business rests upon
him. If the queen contracted debts in
her husbands name he would not DO
responsible for them, as any other
husband in the United Kingdom would.
The king cannot be sued for debt, but
the queen can be. Should the king
die, some authorities hold that the
queen could not marry again, in case
she wished to, without the consent of
the kings successor.-New York Tri-
bune.

About the public library, why not

The court house lot, arpent 55, is
1872 feet front on Chase street, would
be an exceedingly desirable location.
1t was paid for by every taxpayer in

along the east side fronting south it
belongs to the people of Pensacola and
the county. A strip along the east
side of this lot AZ feet wide with every
prospect that there would always he

FLORIDA FARMERS
AND THEIR WORK

Rhubarb Is a very healthy fruit
Horseradish is mostly grown for the
packers.
TOO much care cannot be given the
dairy utensils.
The calf should be trained to lead
and be halter broke.
Don't have a lot of manure lying in
the yards all summer.
Obtaining the seed is the important
thing in growing potatoes.
Parsley seed should be sown in a
protected spot or in the cold frame. .
A very desirable and useful tool
which is not found on all farms is h
level.
Sweet potatoes require a warm
sandy soil well filled with rich rotted
manure.
Turkey eggs set this month will give
good salable carcasses for Christ
mas.
Two sprinklings a week with ker-
oscne oil should keep the house free
from insect pests.
Practical farmers know the value Of
blowing and narrowing land when in
the right order for working.
Just one setting Of thoroughbred
eggs may be the means of working a
revolution in your poultry business.
Don't keep little ducks and chickens
together If it can be avoided. Keep
each separate, and they will both do
better.
The best marked heifer calves from
the largest and most persistent milk
ers should be raised and not sold to
the butcher for a few dollars
When geese become quite old-say,
five or six years-they acquire an
abdominal pouch of large size, and
this is an unfailing sign of old
age.

To have large, juicy stalks Of rhu-
barb and long, straight roots of horse

Give the setting hen a thorough

three times during the incubation.
lice and mites.
Farmers DOW having a silo can very
well afford to grow what roots they
need to give at least one peck OF
sliced roots daily to each head of
stock wintered.
Sore necks in horses are due usual

the side motion as noted in a two
wheeled vehicle.
Divide the dahlja roots and start
some, but not all of them. The early
planted-out da,hlias come into flower
during the hot weather, and they will
not give SO large flowers as later
planted roots
Plow your ground deep and prepare
the soil as carefully as you would for
the corn field. Nature often performs
wonders with trees, but as a general
rule she ought to have a little intelli-
gent help.
If you are quite sure that alfalfa
will not grow on your land try Essex
rape. Il makes fine hog pasture-some
farmers even going so far as to say
that it beats clover, which of course it
does not.
A few years ago when concentrates
were cheap, sheep and wool were also
cheap. Now wool is worth twice as
much as 1t was ten years ago and the
sheep must have some rich food in or

FLORIDA KEY
} TO GOOD ROADS
, a 49,
sstf'N ATLANTA JournaL)
. = = . . . = = = . .

By a sweeping majority, both houses
Of the Florida legislature have passed
the Angle bill to abolish the system
of leasing the states convictS to pri-
vate interests. The measure now re-
quires only the governors signature
to become operative as a law.
1t has been rumored that Governor
Gilchrist may resort to the veto
power. Such action on his part can
not we'll be conceived and certainly
it would be deplorable and unwise
The senate vote in favor OF the bill
was twenty-one to seven, a two-third
majority. 1t is thus evident that de-
spite any possible veto the legislation
can stand.
There seems to be no, doubt that the
people of Florida are solidly behind
the abolition of the lease system.
This is reflected not only through the
vote of the general assembly, but
also through the press and through
a public sentiment so pronounced as
to be almost atmospheric in its effect
Florida is entering upon a new era
of road-b building. Throughout the
commonwealth there has come an
awakening to the Importance of good
highways. This movement, which
means so much to business and agri-
cultural interests, will be intellectually
quickened and strengthened when the
convicts are taken from private les
sees and put to work for the public
good.
Indeed, the anti-Iease campaign was
engendered, in large measure, by the
good roads movement. When appor-
toned her convicts among the various
counties there was put into the hands
of each community a wondrousIy eff
fectfve instrument for developing
roads. Since the adoption of that plan
IN TINS state many thousand miles
Of highwayhave been constructed or
improved, and the work has been done
at surprisingly low cost.
This policy has justified itself from
the standpoint of business and has al
ready made Georgia a more produc-
tive commonwealth
Like results will inevitably follow in
Florida. The state is to be congratu-
lated upon its progressive stride.

SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1911.
Senator Stokes and
the City Charter Bill.

In finally passing the city charter
bill as amended by Representative
Jennings, Senator Stokes did the only
thing under the circumstances that
could have been done.
The things left in the bill were all
essential to Pensacola's welfare and.
while it's value was in large part de-
stroyed when w. A. Blount and 7. A.
Jennings got through with it, the
dement's contained in its remaining
provisions We're sufficient to justify
Senator Stokes in securing its final
passage.
The Journal congratulates the young
Escambia senator on the position he
maintained throughout in respect to
this measure and. on behalf Of the vast
majority of Pensacola's people, il
thanks him for it.
} The controversy which the charter
bill has aroused, between the public
service corporation interests on the
one hand and the people on the other
has resulted at least in accentuatine
the Importance of the issues involved
There were two points at issue-one
Involving the authority of the city tc
own and operate it's public utilities and
the other involving the authority OF
the city to regulate rates and service
of such public utilities as are owned
by private interests.
From now on, these points will be
issues before the people and we thinl
there will be little trouble in the peo'
pie settling those issues in the interes
OF the common good.

Broad Requirements of
a Business Education.

A business education is broader In
its scope than most people realize; Still
at best it can only lay the foundation
for a successful business career. II Is
the function of the business school TO
see that there are no missing stones in
this foundation, but that all is secure
ly put together and well cemented.
There are other qualifications, as
well as learning. that are necessary TO
this success. Besides the knowledge
of bookkeeping, shorthand, typewritins'
etc, the average young man or womali
needs to be taught how to make siie
best use of this knowledge. A proper
study and application of the principles
of craftsmanship will fill just this i"'A
in the business training.
A business school should keep III du-
vance of all other schools in the u
ing of young men and women FOR piac
