the Canal Zone,

with respect to moisture, that is not
soggy or sticky.
Among the important temperate
zone vegetables that have been more
or less successfully grown are cucum-
bers, eggplant, lettuce, beans, cow
peas, radishes, carrots, peppers and
pumpkins. In fact, there is little
reason to doubt that with knowledge
gained through systematic expert
mentation a sufficient supply Of vege-
tables will be produced to replace, in
large measure, the canned and cold
storage products at present consumed
by the white inhabitants. 1t Is true
that many obstacles will be en-
countered in the establishment of an
agriculture upon a modern business
like basis, and much remains to be de-
termined through experimentation, es-
pecially as to manurial treatment and
as to the best varieties of native and
foreign plants.

NOT AN INHERITED DISEASE
Experiments With Cattle Have Proved
That Tuberculosis Is Not Thus
Transmitted

At the Woburn experimental farm
in England an interesting and ex-
tremely important study of the hered-
ity of tuberculosis among cattle has
recently been made. Fifteen calves
from tuberculous mothers were reared
under healthy conditions, in which in
dividual infection with the tubercle
bacillus was impossible. That is, they
were taken away from their mothers
and supplied with pure milk from an
uninfected source. When the steers.
into which part Of these calves grew.
were killed, not trace of tubercular
infection could be found in their bod
les. The heifers have been bred from.
and their calves will in turn be exam
ined for tuberculosis. The part Of
the experiment involving the steers
indicates that tuberculosis among cat
tie at least is not inherited, If the
heifer-test also supports this view, an
economic fact of considerable agricul-
tural importance will be in a fair way
of proof

The climate of the Canal Zone Is
humid and typically tropical. With a
very narrow annual range in tempera-
ture, but with marked contrasts in
quantity of rainfall, the seasons are
aptly divided into dry and rainy. The
dry season proper begins usually
about the middle of December, al
though there are occasionally con-
siderable variation from this. Fairly
heavy precipitation sometimes occurs
in the dry season, particularly on the
Atlantic slope.
Normally the season Is character
lied by cloudless skies. constant
winds, and such scanty rainfall that
many crops which made steady growth
throughout the rainy months. hasten
to maturity, practically cease to grow,
or are completely parched unless irri-
gated. The prevailing type of corn
planted about December 1 usually
natures the latter part Of February.
Northern vegetables are unable to
survive the dry season, but certain
tropical species and many tropical
fruits are uninjured or only slightly
retarded In growth
Many trees shed their leaves at this
time of the year, which corresponds to

Most Of the Indigenous plants make

where there is an absence of the

the head and lungs and make life

other application or two, it Is re-
stored to its natural color and looks

THE EAST VS.. THE WEST

Ask New Yorker just where tn
West is and he will tell you tha
Chicago is i'm the West; that Ohio is i,

what is East and he will say that Chi

far into the East. With these con
fiicting opinions at hand some definite
boundary must be set before any com.
parison between the East and the Wes,
can be drawn. Let us call the Missis.
sippi River the boundary.
Has the East any advantage in the
commercial line? This would be the
first question that business man
would ask. 1t undoubteuIy has advan-
tages that the West does not have
and will not have for many years.
Ii is easier for a commercial house
to cover the East, since the towns are
close together and the country thickly
settled. The travelling man does not
have to make jumps of hundred miles
to get to his next stop. Instead he
can take an interurban for a few miles
Where is the money of the country?
This question can best be answered by
referring to the recent investigation
Of the alleged money trust by Con-
gress.
How does the social life in the East
with that in the West? This
question is purely matter of opinion.
