HOOKWORM DISEASE

The life and development OF the
hookworm from the egg to the adult
is interesting to every one, in that it
explains great many points about
the disease that people do not thor
oughly understand. Hookworms are
intestinal parasites, and live by suck
ing the blood from the one they infect.
There are both male and female hook
worms. Each adult female worm liv-
ing in the intestinal canal of man lays
about two thousand eggs every day,
which are passed with the human eX-
crement. While the adult hookworm
is about one-half inch long and can be
seen with the naked eye; the egg is
only microscopic in size and high
| powered tense is required to aid the
eye before it can be seen, and a nit
roscope has to be used for this pur-
pose.
The eggs do not hatch until they
ara passed from the body, because oXy-
gen Is essential in their development.
After they pass from the bowel, how.
eTer, with warmth and moisture in the
open air, the eggs terminate into ali
enbiyo in two or three days. Then
| tn, larva matches out of the shell
Ate: seven or eight days this tiny
baby" hookworm has SIZED and grown
fresh skin or covering. In this stage
they are called the encysted larva, and
are in the injecting stage. They are
yet so small that they cannot be seen
with the naked eye. Many of these
could live in drop of water and not
be crowded. After developing SO far,
it lives considerable length of time,
but does not grow any until it reaches
| the intestinal canal of man.
To do this, it has to enter the body
in one of two ways. Many more than
half enter through the skin directly
by burrowing. When an unprotected
part of the body, like the barefoot of
a child, comes in contact with the
soil in which these young hookworms
attack 1t and burrow through between
the toes, causing what is commonly
called toe itch, ground itch, or dew
poisons. After burrowing through the
skin they get into the blood and are
carried to the heart, thence to the
lungs. Here they lodge, burrow
through into the air passages and are
coughed up and swalled. Passing
down the gullet through the stomach
they enter the intestinal canal and
there catch hold with their mouth
to the lining of the intestine and suck
the very life blood from the person
whom they infect.
Within six weeks from the attack
of ground itch, the hookworm eggs
can be found in the person so affect
ed, making him a carrier or spreader
of this slow death to thousands of peo-
pie, especially children in the country
where he resides.
Therefore, in order to stamp out this
curse to the Southern people, it is nee
essary that every one infected with
these parasites be located and treated
to stop the further spread of the in
lection. If single person so affect
ed is left untreated, he will in time
infect the whole county, first by pol
luting the soil at his home or where
he works and, injecting those about
him. Later these help him spread
the disease until the whole country Is
infected. Accordingly for the cam
paisu ~ pe u success, every man. ".
man and child should be examined u

make sure they are or are not infect
ed and those infected should be treat
ed. Both the examination and treat
ment are now offered to the people
by the State and county absolutely
free, and l think it duty every one
owes to himself, his county and
his State to take advantage of this OPP
portunity. The examinations will be
made upstairs in the Commerce build
ing. Let every one be examined and
if nothing more. give this great public
health work their moral support in this
way.

amendments. 1t is almost ludicrous
to suppose that when such set OF alb
stract propositions as in part compose
a constitution are referred to the peo-
pie, they can form any adequate judg-
ment of the implications of that which
their votes are supposed to show as
their will. But let these abstract
propositions come before the people
one at a time; each in concrete form
of a particular measure affecting the
public welfare, and it will be only the
most ignorant and unintelligent voter
who will fail to decide whether 1t is
his will or not. 1t is the rule of the
courts to pass only on definite cases.

RECALL OF JUDICIAL DECISIONS.

The so-called recall Of judicial de-
cisions" amounts merely to this: That
when such situation arises the de-
cision as to whether the law in ques-
ton Is their will should automatically
be referred to the people. Considered
apart from the heat of political cam
paign, this is surely no very radical
proposition. Indeed, it would appear
to be far more sensible method of
amending the old and of gradually
building up a new set of principles
and institutions than the present
method OF effecting constitutional

PRAIRIE FIRE
THREATENED
WESTCL|FFE

A big prairie fire that ragged a few
days ago in the Wet Mountain Valley
threatened to destroy the town of
westcliffe. Only the changing of the
wind at the last minute saved the
town.
AS it was 1000 acres of hay land
was swept by the flames and 400 tons
of hay in the stack were consumed by
the hungry element.
Mr.. NJ. B. Austin, who owns what is
known as the Beardsley ranch, lost
everything he had-nothing but few
articles of furniture being saved. This
ranch is about two miles from West
cliffe. toward the mountains.
1t is not known definitely how the
fire started but strong wind gave 1t
great headway before it was discover
ed. The whole town of Westclise
turned out 10 HSul tnt HahieS anu enS'
took the town fire hose and pumpei
water out OF Grape creek to help cope
with the situation.
The prairie fire gained terrific speed
and licked up everything before it
ferociously. 1t came down to within
a quarter of a mile OF the town and
only the opportune changing OF the
strong wind saved the day. DR.. Hin
shaw. formerly of this city. spent all
day in combating the flames along
with the rest OF the inhabitants. Mr..
Hal Galley OF this city was in West
cliffe day after the fire and states
that the people were just quieting
down from their scare. The loss IL
estimated at about s50.000.
This is an unusual time OF the year
for either a forest or prairie fire and
the people were not looking for such
a happening.
