A campaign is being waged all over
the country against the filthy swim
ming pools in many gymnasiums and
in the Y. M. G. A. institutions. Many
of them, especially in the winter time,
when it is difficult to keep the water
at the proper temperature, are ex-
tremely unsanitary. In an article in
The Survey, H. F. j.. Porter says;
AS ordinarily run, swimming pools
are little more than cesspools and
clear themselves of bacteria largely on
the septic tank principle.
Investigations of public pools for a
long period Of time at Hamburg, as
well as more recently Of college pools
at Purdue, Brown, Chicago and Yale
universities and the New York public
swimming pools, shows that the i'm
purities produced by bathers are BAG
terlal n chemical foreign matter.
Tests made at the Hamburg pools
showed water fresh from the tap con-
tanned fifty-seven microbes. per cubic
centimeter; the same volume after
seventy -four persons had bathed con-
tanned 1900; after 494 persons, $4,000
microbes were found in the tank.
When tests were made after S29 had
bathed, however, only 154, 900 microbes
were IOunu, Illustrating the septic tank
principle, that after a certain point
has been reached the septic conditions
OF the water either actually kills the
microbes or else they devour each 9TH
er until the excess is destroyed and an
equilibrium representing the maximum
impurity that the water can sustain is
reached. The very expression OF this
condition, which actually existed In
all pools studied is, it would seem, cal
culated to arou alarm as we'll as dis
gust.
In all pools some precautions can be
used. Previous bathing and the exclu-
sion of persons known to have conta-
gious skin affections are the first, and
these are enforced in few even Of the
large college pools. Frequent change
OF water is another essential.
Where water is scarce other meth
DDS Of publication can partly take the
place Of change, but there is none
which a effectively and permanently
keep up an accumulation of bacteria
due to many bathers in the same wa
ter.
The quickest and cheapest method
OF publication, which is used FREQUENT
ly for purifying water supplies, and
which is applicable, it would seem, to
some extent to river bathing places as
well as to indoor pools, is h~ypochIo-
ride Of calcium, one part to 1000, 900
parts water, twenty pounds to 1000
900 gallons of water.

BETTER FARMING.

North Dakota Is gaining a national
stand the state has taken In the better
farming movement. Not only have the
agricultural papers commended the
movement-but it has attracted the at
tention of many Of the leading daily
newspapers of the country.
North Dakota is raising a great crop
This year. The yield would have been
large had the better farming plan new
er been adopted-but wherever the
farmers have used improved methods
either their own or those suggested by
the men behind the improved farming
A-the results have been better. There
are thousands of farmers in the state
who have for years been in~augurating
these that are being helped by the new
plan. It is the others who have drift
ed along in the same old rut.
Good as the crop is in North Dakota,
valuable as the final yields will be
one can but be impressed with what
might have been accomplished had all
used better methods.
One has but to look from the car
windows-or from an auto, as they
speed along-to feel that crops are
puny compared to what they should be.
There are signs of improperly plowed
land-of poor seeding, and of made
dtate cultivation. But so wonderfully
productive is the North Dakota soil
that it is yielding good crops even de-
spite the conditions.
North Dakota has scarcely more
than scratched the soil. New and bet
ter methods are coming. The yields
per acre will be increased. BY crop
citation and Investigation and better
preparation Of the soil-fair yields will
be assured-even when the conditions
as to rain are much less favorable than
they have been this season.

ROOSEVELT AND THE NEGROES

There has neve been such an ex-
hibition of straddlebuggery as that
attempted by Colonel Roosevelt on the
negro question. In the north where
there is no prejudice against the ne
groes-the colonel is strong for the
there is no prejudice against the ne
gro in politics is under the ban-the
colonel is ~anti-negro.
1t is a peculiar situation-and so I'M
like the colonel's usual co~cksureness
and p"ositiveness that it is a surprise
even to his intimate friends.
OF course the coloneIs object is very
evident. He hopes, by opposing the
southern negro, that he can win part
of,the southern democratic vote. But
this year the southern democrats are
unlikely to switch. With an indica-
tion of a democratic victory in sight
with the prospect of federal pie In the
shape of fat Offices they are not going
fer Roosevelt-not this year. Then,
too, they realize that Roosevelt-even
If he were not acting a hypocrite in
this matter-would be no more on their
side than Wilson has always been. But
what still-and always will-sticks in
the a Of the southerners is the IA
NOUS White House dinner at which
Roosevelt entertained Booker WASH
ington. No southern democrat will
ever forget that.
But worst of all, the c%olonel's hypo-
critical attitude Is likely to lose him
the negro vote in the north. The ne
groes of the north are generally
brighter and better educated thar
those who remain in the south. They
have suticient enterprise and ambition
to get out and improve their condition

he cannot slap them in the face with
