Suggestions to Water Consumers

If you have meter all the water
passing through it is yours, and you
should pay for it. No meter regis.
tiers more than goes through it. Your
service may leak or your meter may
not be read correctly. To test the
meter for a leak see that no water is
being drawn, watch the dial marked
a." If the pointer moves at all there
is leak. If you doubt the correct
ness of the meter or the meter reader,
take vessel of known capacity and
draw z IL gallons of water. If the
pointer on dial 81" has made one
revolution, then it agrees with your
measure and is correct. We instruct
our meter readers to always call for
someone to see the meter read. =.
If you have no meter put your ear
to the service pipe occasionally when
no water is being drawn. If there is
a leak you can hear it. If the leak or
waste is in your service your con-
tract requires you to call a plumber
at once. If the leak or waste is in the
service of others or the company's
mains they will appreciate the favor
if you will call the Superintendent.
It is a misdemeanor to draw water
from any service without written
permit from the Water Company or
to allow others to use your hydrant
without such permit.

Reports reach us that peach yellows
is present in the orchards of southern
Missouri. The first indication of the
presence of yellows in the peach tree
is the premature ripening Of the fruit.
Sometimes this will occur several
weeks before the usual time. Gener-
ally, the peaches on one or two limbs
will ripen when the rest are green.
The next symptom will be dwarfed
growths upon the trunk and limbs of
the trees. These bear very small
leaves, which are nearly colorlessand
at best are pale green, sometimes
streaked with red. These unnatural
growths may appear any time from
early in the spring till late in the fall
even after the natural foliage has fall
en- from the trees. So far as is known
now, there is no remedy for the trou-
BILE. Trees which were badly affect
ed last year should be cut down this
spring and the tops piled over the
rootsand burned: Breed

ing for making laws on Sunday.
The journal shows that the Assem-.
bly, still is in session on Saturday, but
Doctor Fulcher ignored this record
Doctor Fulcher gave out the follow
ing written prayer, which he asserted
was practically what he said:
I'VE pray, oh God, that thou will
bless our State and will cause US to
realize that thy law is fundamental in
our law. Let us know that thou hast
not rescinded one act of the law as to
thy book or thy day or thy way of
life.
1--WE pray that the representatives
making laws for the State be made to
realize that they cannot violate thy
fundamental laws and expect the
citizens Of the State to respect their
laws now being made.
"And we further pray that if the
men elected to represent the people
of the State will not represent the
moral sentiment of the State they be
not returned to position of respon-
sibility in the State.
The forenoon meeting of the House
closed with all the members singing

Sweet Bye and Bye" and America.

ly with knock down and drag out,

Four hours later Mr.. Simmons was

David w. Stark of
Cass County and Kirby J. Smith, a
clerk for the Game Warden, were
he actual participants.
The Senate tonight was near to
adopting the forceful tactics en-
oloyed in the House, but better coun-
'el prevailed. Republican Senators,
oent on delaying legislation, became
obstreperous, but subsidized after
sharp rebuke from Lieutenant Gov
ernor Gmelich.
The service of song was marked
~ a fervor and general spirit of
good will that sent every lawmaker
o his Sunday dinner bubbling over
With contentment.
The row was preceded by a strict

Austin Horror Causes Water Com
mission to Hesitate.


Word comes from Harrisburg to the
effect that the State water supply commits
sion is "holding under adyisement" the
project Of Pittsburg financial interests to
gobble up the water power In the valleys
of Tionests creek ard the Clarion river,
and there is some question when the
commission will finally dispose of the
applications. 1t would seem from this
report that the horror at Austin had some
weight with the commission In deciding
not 10 act on the applications although
the commissioners themselves have only
made the bare announcement giving no
reasons.
SO the project is not yet dead, and the
people may still look for trouble, notwith'
standing the fact that the terrible calamity
that has befallen the inhabitants of Aus
tin and Costello should forever deter the
authorities from granting such privileges
to any corporation.
The snake is not dead by any means,
and will bear watching.

Unnatural DrOwsiness.

Karl de Schwelnitz, executive secretary
Pennsylvania society for tho prevention
of tuberculosis, saws: Don't yawn. Next
time you feel sleepy open the window.
Go into a warm room after a brisk walk
in the autumn wind. You feel sleepy.
Usually you blame il on the air. You
are right. 1t is the air-but the inside air,
not the outside air that is to blame.
Outside air is fresh, and has plenty of
oxygen. 1t makes the heart beat rapidly.
The blood rushes through your arteries.
You feel wide awake. Inside the win
dows are closed. Perhaps the fire is
burning. This and other people in the
room use up the oxygen. You have to
breath stale air. Soon the heart is beat
ing slowly. You become drowsy. sleepy,
yawny. You feel the beginning of a
headache Then throw open the window
and see how soon the fresh air will wake
you.
Draughts won't hurt you unless you
are overheated or rundown. To have the
air blowing about you means that 1t is
fresh. Pneumonia, consumption and
colds breed in unventilated rooms. So
throw open your windows just as often as
possible If you want to keep well and be
wide awake
