MEDICINE AND PUBLICITY.

We are glad to print the reply of a
reputable surgeon of this city in the
statement of DR.. Mackenzie of
Johns Hopkins with regard to opera
itions upon the throats of children,
The discussion of such topics in the
public press is useful and to be vel
coined. More frank publicity than
ever before is being given to the
treatment of disease and the preven
ltion of it. For this a good deal OF
credit is due to such men as DR.,
Woods Hutchinson, who, orthodox
enough in his medical surgical and
Ihygienic creeds, Is shockingly un
orthodox in regard to the exposure
Iof the facts concerning the science
of medicine, says the Syracuse Post,
Standard In this he has given Of
lfense to good many other practt
ltioners by refusing, as one of the
spectators says, ito help them pre-
serve the illusion that medicine Is a
mystery, comprehensive only to the
initiate, and that revelation of its Sc
lcrets is, on the one hand, treason to
the medical hierarchy, and, on the
other, full of peril for the ignorant
recipients" The people can stand a
good deal mere information than the
tradition of the medical men allows
them, and benefit by it, too. Ig-
Inorance isn't safety. Ignorance is
what keeps patients away from real
doctors and sends them to siam
ones.

The Final Prediction.

In March, 1906, Harper's Weekly
"ventured to suggest the nominal
ton of, Woodrow Wilson, president
of Princeton university, as the Demo-
cratic candidate for president.
In November, 1908, it predicted
that Wilson would be nominated for
governor with the idea of placing his
name before the 1912 convention as
a presidential candidate.
In May, 1909, it predicted that
Wilson would be elected governor of
New Jersey in 1910.
In November, 1910, after he had
been elected, it predicted he would
be the Democratic nominee in 1912
In July, 1912, it predicted he would
be duly elected president of the
United States.
Last week it published a final pre-
diction, which read:
eve now predict that Woodrow
Wilson's majority over all in the
electoral college will exceed 800"

AS the manure gathers it is packed

this condition there is very little loss
This method is easily followed when
there is an open shed close to the

Some men allow their manure to

This is a common practice with gar.

CONSERVE THE MANURE

= NOT PROPERLY CARED FOR.
BY N. r. Miller, Professor Of Agron.
omy, College Of Agriculture,
University Of Missouri.

OF the different ways of handling
manure no other is so saving Of fer.
tility as that of hauling and scatter
ing the manure as it is made. This
gives the least possible chance for
loss, either through teaching or fer
mentation. 1t is true that there are
millions of dollars worth of manure
wasted annually in Missouri through
improper handling. 1t is a common
and wasteful practice to pile the
manure out of doors and haul it onto
The fields two or three times a year.
Experiments have been made which
show that manure exposed to the
weather for 100 days may lose half of
its fertility.
There are at least two good ways of
handling the manure. That of haul
ing to the field directly is one of the
best. When the ground is too soft to
haul onto the field, the manure is
stored under roof.
Another practical method is to al
low the manure to accumulate under

The two common sources of loss
are by teaching and by fermentation.
The first is prevented by keeping the

prevented by keeping tn manure moist
or by keeping it compact so the air is
