CONTINUE PELLAGRA TESTS.
VIII Use Sand Fly and Monkeys, Says
Professor Hunter.

Lawrence, Kan, June 27.-Although
no definite results have been obtained
from the experiment with the sand fly
and the monkeys in an effort to deter
mine the methods in which the dis
ease of peilagra is spread, Prof. S. j.
Hunter of the university and DR.. S. j.
Crum bine, secretary of the state board
of health, are planning to continue
their investigation and they still have
hopes of definite results.
Last year a number of monkeys
were secured by the university, an eff
fort was made to innoculate pellagra
germs in them by means of the sand
fly. Since then the monkeys have
been carefully watched for symptoms
of the disease, but nothing definite has
appeared. However, similar expert
ments have been productive of better
results and Doctor Crum bine and Pro-
fessor Hunter are not discouraged and
will continue thier efforts.

The Great Frederick's Virtues.

Frederick the Great became king of
Prussia 173 years ago today-May 81,
1740. 1t was not much of a Prussia
then, but the little man in the blue
coat with the red trimmings made it
one of the first powers of the con-
tinent.
A very lovabIe old fellow, in many
ways, was Frederick the Great. I'm
derneath the king there was ever WISH
BILE the man. After he had conquered
his political position he made his
mobiles and aristocrats treat the COM
mon people fairly. He personally saw
to it that just laws were instituted. He
MORALLY hated fanaticism and bigotry.
When the churchmen attempted to in
veigle him into religious persecution,
he replied: Let the parsons go to
heaven their own way, and let every
body else do the same
AT heart he was favorable to demo-
cratic institutions. When King George
wanted to hire soldiers of him to fight
the Americans he Indignantly spurned
the proposition, and refused to let the
Hessians pass through his territory on
their way to join the British. He ad-
mired the things for which the Ameri-
cans were fighting as ardently as he
did the personal qualities and soldierly
parts of the man who led their armies.

Eliminates Danger of Intense Heat in
Harvest Fields.

Great Bend, Kan, June 27.-Harvest
is on in this county and under condi-
lions that are extremely adverse. The
intense heat would make it impossible
for many men to stand the work in the
fields if it were not for the winds
which have been rather high. In three
or four places horses have died from
the heat, being unable to stand the
work but there have been no reports
of heat prostrations yet among the
harvest hands. Corn is doing well.
