THE PENITENTIARY AGAIN.


From the reports in the daily pa
pers Thursday, concerning the lack of
proper precautions being taken to
guard the convicts OF the State Peni-
tentiary from the ravages of Tubercu-
losis, 1t seems that our surmises, fol-
lowing the paroling OF Herman E.
King, by Gov. Ansel just before the
close of his administration, were cor
ing the parole OF King by Gov Ansel
on account of serious illness that
might develop into Pneumonia" we
suggested that little investigation in
to the sanitary conditions of the
Penitentiary might show far too
great a prevalence of tuberculosis in
that institution. Some few days fol-
lowing this little suggestion, state
ments came out in several papers
which had representatives on the spot
that there were mo unhealthy condi-
tions at the State Prison. however,
and an investigation would show this"
Not being in a position at the time
to investigate for ourselves, we took
the statements at their face value and
said no more about it, except to hope
that Supt. Griffith would do all in his
power to protect the inmates under
his care
From the reports which have gained
circulation and which evidently are
well founded, coming from DR.. Gam
brell, of the board. it seems that the
sanitary conditions at the Penitentiary
are not at all satisfactory, especially
in that muchly discussed hosiery mill.
where Northern capital is getting the
benefit of our cheap convict labor DR..
Gambrell says that the men, suffering
with tuberculosis are worked in the
hosiery mill so long in the advanced
stages OF the disease. that irreparable
harm is done before they are taken
to the hospital 1t might be we'll to
further draw attention to the fact that
the report of the State Board of
health, which recently inspected the
Penitentiary, is withheld until some
future time. Why his is done is no
said, but it appears quite clear that
they have discovered things that would
not appear to advantage just now.
We would like to see this matter
cleared up, But, as we have said be-
fore. we are not trying to stir up any
hubbub about it, only we want to see
that proper precautions are taken to
protect the health of those men who
are placed under the care of the State.
From all reports Supt. Griffith has
made, in other respects, an excellent
official. placing. if we remember cor
rectly, $4,000 clear profit in the State
treasury from his department last
year However, we do believe that
Supt. Griffith does not realize the
States, obligations in placing every
precaution around the lives of her
prisoners. SO that they will not con-
tract diseases which can and ought
to be avoided. When the report of
the Board OF Health is made known.
steps should be taken at once to rem
edy the conditions. tuberculosis
could be stamped out inside of prison
walls better than in any other place
for the necessary guards are there to
enforce precautions.

How many farmers in this county

grass to grow over the walks and
make the edges Of these paths ragged.
A Wisconsin man has invented en- i'm
plement by means Of which any man
may trim the edges of his walk in a
few minutes as well as the most eX-
pert gardener could trim them In a
couple of hours in the old way-with
a pair of clippers. This implement Is
a shovel-shaped affair with sharp
edge and one side bent till 1t forms a
gutter, with broad rim that rests on
the pavement. Starting at one end of
the walk, the groove in the shovel is
placed just outside Of the edge of the
paving, with one side of the shovel
resting on the walk and the other on
the grass. 1t Is then pushed along,
blowing a neat little trench and cut
ting all the struggling grass away as
smoothly as lawn mower would do.
It is said that the curb and walk of an
S0-foot lot can be trimmed in 20 min
utes with this implement.

ENLIST AID OF CHURCHES
Powerful Weapon Brought to Bear In
the Flight Against Tuber-
culosis.

Just how serious problem tubercu-
losis is TO the average church, and In
just what ways pastors are called up
on to minister to those suffering from
this disease. is the subject of an in
vestigation which the national asso-
citation for the study and prevention
of tuberculosis is conducting In con-
nection with its plans for tuberculo-
sis day on, April go. Statistics are
being gathered from thousands of
ministers regarding this subject, and
among other figures the number Of
deaths last year from tuberculosis in
the church congregation will be given.
1t is planned to place these statistics
together with other educational ma
terial, in the hands Of every minister
in the country for his use in connec-
ton with tuberculosis day. Millions
of circulars and pamphlets on the pre-
vention of tuberculosis will also be
Issued, both from the national Office
and from the headquarters Of the $50
anti-tuberculosis associations who will
cooperate In the movement.

MORE BEEF CATTLE NEEDED
South Is Depending Too Much on
Western Packers to Furnish Meat
Much Pasturase Idle.

In spite of the fact that the south
consumes more beef every year, the
farmers of that section are showing
little inclination to grow more OF a
supply. y.-The ,Uuth 10 depoa1iss ton
much on the western packers to fur
nish their beef, says the Rural New
Yorker. The southern states should
raise more beef cattle than they need;
they have unlimited ranges which
could be made productive if proper at.
tention was given them in installing
the right kind of grasses. The land
could be made to grow ten times what
it does now and become more fertile
all the time. Good cattle need good
pasturage, and good pasturage can be
propagated on what is now almost
desert barrens.
Fever ticks must be eradicated and
the government: is ready at all times
to furnish experts to assist the land
and cattle owners in getting rid of this
curse. The keeping of more and bet
ter live stock on the farm promotes
greater interest in farm life. The
tendency of the boys and the girls, the
young men and young women to leave
the farm is generally regretted. Give
them more interest In cattle raising,
in improving the breeds at home, in
having live stock to sell every year,
stock that are good to look at and sell
high, and they will keep up their love
for home and not wish to leave.
Money counts on the farm and moth
ing brings in better returns than good
fat cattle. No system of agriculture
can be permanent unless the raising
of live stock, especially Of cattle and
hogs, is given proper place. This is
essentially true OF the south.
