Free Agricultural Course.

There will be a one week s short
course in agriculture at Paris
Henry County, December 9 to IA,
conducted by the Agricultural
College of the University of Ten
nessee. The course is absolutely
free, and has as it's object the bet
terment of agriculture in Henry
and the adjoining counties.
The farmers Of Benton County
who are interested in practical,
scientific farming should avail
themselves of this opportunity to
attend this course at Paris.
There is nothing too good for
the farmers of our county, and
they can well afford to sacrifce.a
little time in order to qualify
themselves when they can take this
short course in agriculture at small
expense.
The Boys Corn Club opened the
eyes Of many old farmers by giving
demonstration of intensive farm =
ing. We need more of it.

ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

says: III is still doubtful whether
Wilson or Roosevelt will carry the
electoral vote of California or
whether the vote will be divided
between them, as there was exten-
sive scratching of individual names
on the Progressive ticket, and while
the face of the returns may show
that Roosevelt carried the State by
a hundred or more votes, when the
individual names of the electors are
gone over it may show that some of
them have lost and some of the
Wilson electors have won. Count

vote in the electoral college now
stands RS follows:

President Taft carried Vermont
and Utah, while Mr.. Roosevelt's
90 votes accredited to him come
from Washington, South Dakota,
Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylva-
mia and California.
No Presidential candidate who
ever ran for reelection has received
as few votes as Taft, and he has
received fewer votes than any Dem
ocrat or Republican has received
in fifty years.

as the greatest single cause of death
among mankind, and is called the
captain of men of death. About
one in every ten of the entire white
race die of it. Every year in the
United States there about two
hundred thousand deaths from tu-
berculosis. That is five hundred
and forty eight every day, or one
death in every q minutes through
out the day and night continuously.
And just think, this appalling ar
ray Of facts becomes more import
ant when we realize that nearl y all
this could have been avoided If
every person had given even lit
tie more attention to the means
which will prevent the spread of
bacteria, namely, careless splitting.
There are certain conditions of
the body which makes ua liable to
contract bacteria diseases or max es
us unable to resist them if we are
effected. These are called predis-
posing causes; but no matter how
many predisposing causes may ex-
ist, we will not contract the disease
unless we add to these thepresence
of the germ, which is the real or ex.
citing cause. Predisposing causes
simply pave the way, or, in other
words, prepare the soil for the germ
"HEREDITY.'
Years ago it was believed that
tuberculosis was usually inherited,
but we know now that it is only the
tendency to the disease which con-
sumptive parents transmit to their
children, and that if such children
are properly cared for they will in
most cases out grow this tendency
and SO strengthen their bodies as
to be able to avoid the disease.
Care should be taken that the
childrens' strength and vitality be
not overtaxed and>that ample time
be given for healthful play. Fresh
air, sunshine, cuspidores and indi-
vidual drinking cups are all valua-
ble adjuncts to the school room.
The school room should be light
and airy, admitting reasonable
amount of sunlight and having as
many windows as convenient for
ventilation.
The house should be we'll heated
so that the children will be COM
Portable, with windows partly open
at bottom and top, so as to give
fresh air at all times. Cuspidores
should be used by students, care
being taken not to expectorate on
the floors. This is considerable
source of danger, afterthe sputum
becomes dry. The germ in the
sputum may be blown about in the
dust which is stirred up by the
children walking over the floor
and breathed into the air cells OF
the lungs and there begin to germ
mate, causing consumption. In
due time the cuspidoles should be
burned or boiled for thirty minutes
: in solution containing. some good
J strong antiseptic.
Fresh air and sunshine does
: more toward preventing consump-
, tion than ell the medicine known
to us today. All doors and win
dows should be SCREENED against the
house fly and mosquito. 10 my
mind the house fly, the mosquito,
} the bed bug, the flea, the rat and
the public drinking cup are the
most prolific sources of contamina-
tion we have to encounter.
tuberculosis is a preventable
disease which kills more of the
human race than cholera, yellow
fever or wars, and is now being
properly classified and measures

ed and glorified public health with
out distracting from any other
science. Though her claim is es-
tablished her missions have not
ended with the recognition of her
supremacy. Today she turns to
the world outside the medical fold
and demands the sphere in their
councils she SO justly merits-but
has not yet reached the statues we
so earnestly hope for.
A small share in the administra-
tion of sanitary interests of the
country has been grudgingly al
lowed, but the demand of modern
enlightenment can not be satisfied
until the conservators of public
health shall sit the peer if not par
amount to every other interest.
The conservators of wars may
build impregnable defenses, set
with mighty implements and mus
ter large forces for armies and ma
vies which disease can disperse
with a weapon so tiny that the eye
can not discover and no military
expedient antagonize. The min
listers of finance may FIJI the treas
uries with gold and silver by the
ton which can buy human souls,
honor, virtue, independence and
everything but the "boon of
health" God s greatest blessing to
man. One has but to take a peep
through the microscope or visit
our. invalid resorts, travel in any
direction and by any of our public
carriers to become convinced of
the dangers that confront one and
all of becoming contaminated with
the teeming millions of micro
organism lurking in every vestige
of the upholstering, passage ways,
floors, walls, ceilings, bedding and
everything we come in contact
with, even the air being impreg-
mated with morbific agents ready
to germinate in any fertile soil
propitious for life on the one hand
and death on the other. Many of
these victims are helpless women
and children, whereof others who
have impaired vital forces due to
any of our simple but emaciating
maladies. Much and perhaps all
of this risk will in the near future
be obviated in our noble march to
higher aims in sanitary work SO
that parties seeking the climatic
changes may not fall victims to
the more surely destructive dis
eases that are claiming so many of
our brightest stars ndjewels, not
respecting fond parents, loving
companions, cherished children
and severiDg the strongest ties OF
friendship.
SANITATION WITH SPECIAL REFER.
ENCE TO TUBERCULOSIS.
Consumption is caused by a liv.
ing germ in the lungs. The body
of a healthy person will resist its
growth and may kill the germ, but
in weak body and without proper
care the germs multiply until the
lungs are consumed and the person
dies. The germs are found prin-
cipally in the sputum of con.
SumptlOn-ln small numbers IN
the very early stages of the disease
and in large numbers as the dis
ease progresses and in countless
millions in the late stages.
The human race has always suf-
fered from this disease. In the
oldest remains that have ever been
found evidence of it's ravages have
sometimes been discovered, some
of its bacteria having been found
in the oldest mummies. Today
the disease is most universal, be.

MAKES A GOOD IMPRESSION.
Candidate for State Senate PIeases
Those Who Meet Him.

G. f. Borden, Of Shoshone, candi-
date for the republican nomination
for state senator, visited Richfield
this week. He is business
man and not politician, and 1t
was only upon the most urgent So
licitation that he consented to be
candidate But, having accepted it.,
he is showing a most cOmmendable
ability and disposition to make
gccd to his friends by making
coed campaign. Mr. Borden favors
three-county division, at once, so
as to settle the matter and give the
county a chance to grow and settle
down to business by establishing
county seat and keeping it out of
the campaign every year. He is
high type of man, strong, fearless
man who has no unfortunate entan-
Cling alliances, and would be an ex-
cellent senator.

they agreed to it, Last week, the

the matter before the state land
