HEALTH OF CHILDREN IN COUN

munity.

That 80 per cent of the children
In country schools drink tea and cot
fee: that 40 per cent of them suffer
from very fequent toothache; and
that - to % per cent have frequent
headache: these are some Of the sur.
prising facts brought out by DR. E
B. Hoag, of Minnesota, according te
the United States Bureau of Educa-
ton.
To find exactly what health condi.
tions in the Minnesota schools are
DR.. H0ag asks the simplest kind oil
questions, with astonishing results
when l ask those who drink coffee
to stand up, says DR.. Haog, nearly
all the children arise. When l ask
how many have q toothbrush, nearly
all say they have, but when / ask
did you use it this morning., there
Is little response.
Many of the. children assumed that
headache, earache, and other all
ments were perfectly natural things
and seemed surprised that anybody
should be curious about them. why
l always have headache" they would
say. DR.. Hoag found that by simple

sight, the teacher without any optical
tests at all would discover that 20
per cent of her children suffer from
eye strain.
From IL Ito II per cent Of the
country school children suffer from
earache. and 4 per cent have dis
charging ears. "Adenoids, earachc
discharging ears, deafness; that's tho
order We find over and over again,
says DIR. Hoag. -Four Or per cent
of the children simply do not hear
what is going ON and are therefore
put down as stupid when they arc

The commonest principles Of n.y.

peoples the custom OF using night
soil as a fertilizer in vegetable gar
dens has obtained from time imme-
mortal. Certain of the northern ma
lions of Europe also have had this
custom, and have brought it with
them to this country. The truck
farms near our large cities, especially
in the East, are coming more and
more into the hands of foreigners,
some of them Syrians; while in the
West the Chninese have invaded this
branch of farming, and naturally.
bring with them the customs OF the
countries in which they have lived
Some of the Oriental peoples of the
Near-East, particularly the Greeks
and the Armenians, in increasing
numbers are growing and handling
the fruits and vegetables of our larg-
err cities.
Typhoid bacilli may remain viru-
lent on the leaves and stems of grow
ing vegetables thirty days after the
soil l. infected, and the same germ
has been found in the ground itself
still active and virulent thirty-five
days after it was infected. We have
entirely given up the old maxim that
running water purifies itself every
three miles, says the Journal OF the
American Medical Association. for We
know that specific disease-germs will
live for days and weeks in running
water. It was presumed that in the
growth of vegetables sunlight would
destroy the bacteria on them. This
has been proved not to be true. Rain
fall or the watering process necessary
for vegetable growth was supposed
to be sufficiently cleansing to- guar
antee the healthfulness of fresh vege
etables eaten uncooked, but when
specific disease-germs are in question
this Is also not true.
As other affections may be tram
mitted in the same manner as ty.
phoid, it is evident that precautions
should be taken. The question is o.
much more widespread interest than
might at first be imagined.

CONTAMINATED VEGETABLES.
AS water-supplies are more care
fully inspected and their tendency
to spread typhoid more and more
lessened, the ether factors in the dis.
semination Of the disease are becom-
ing better recognized. Among these
one of the most important is the con-
sumption of vegetables without cook
ing. Az they can be washed only II
cold water, and as frequently they
may have been exposed to dust and
dirt of various kinds. they are nat
urally capable of becoming carriers
of disease under certain circumstanc
es. The health departments of many
cities now require. very properly. that
such vegetables shall not be exposed
openly for sale on the streets to be
contaminated by street dirt and to bt
the restin g-place of flies, but Of cours'
it is of no avail to safeguard them
during sale If they have been con-
terminated previously. Their handl
ing before they come to market anf
the con1iticns un1er which they
have been grewn are therefore ex-
tremely important. In certain por-

st. Joseph, Mo, Feb. 13.-Clarence
English, the veteran W~elterweight
boxer of Omaha, Neb., has the distinc-
ton of participating in tn. fight game
for more than nine Years without hav-
ing ever been knocked out. In a total
of 166 contests he has lost but seven
close decisions, all the others being
verdicts in his favor or draws.
English fought his first battle in
Kansas City in 1903 with Battling
Nelson, who afterward became cham
pion lightweight of the world. The
two boys fought a draw, but in an
engagement a few months later in ST.
Joseph, The Battler'' was given a
decision.
English is a good fighter yet, and
when the time arrives will be given
an opportunity to win the welter-
weight title in a sort of tournament
in his class that a st. Joseph promo
ter is conducting. English, Pierson,
Bronson, Walters, Howell, Ferns and

show which is the better man. pro-
viding they will come to terms and
