Some thinking person has set forth
for the good Of all farmers the fol-
lowing rules OF horticulture:
First-Perform every operation in
the proper season and in the best
manner.
Second-Complete every operation
consecutively.
Third-Never. II possible, perform
one operation in such q manner as
to render another necessary.
Fourth-When calling off from any
operation leave your work and tools
in an ordinary condition.
Ffth-In leaving on work make a
temporary finish, and clean your tools
and carry them to the tool house.
\ Sixth-Never do that in the garden
or dollhouse which can be equally
well done in the reserve ground or in
the back sheds.
Seventh-Never pass weed or an
insect without pulling 1t up or taking
1t on, unless time forblds.
Eighth-In gathering crop, take
away the useless as well as the useful
parts.

less they are wanted for some pur-
pose, useful or ornamental. and re-
move all parts which are In state
Of decay.

NEdVE IMPULSES I'M PLANTS

Getting Facts.

Darwin Il was who noted that q
root placed horizontally receives the
stimulus Of gravity in the root cap,
while the bending which causes the
root to turn downward occurs at some
distance from the cap. It is evident
that this spatial separation OF point of
stimulus and point Of response indi-
Gates the existence OF something
similar to nerve impulses, and, indeed,
most students of the subject freely ad-
NIT that plants exhibit certain physi-
illogical processes analogous to the So
called conduction of impulses by
nerves. In some plants this conduc-
ton is pretty obviously q purely me-
chanical process. This Is the case
In the well-known sensitive plant,
mimosa pudica, wherein responsive
ness to stimuli or sensitivity was first
observed and is today most widely
known. The pressure of fluid in ne.
culiar system of tubes conveys the
effect OF touch or pat to distant parts
Of the sensitive plant, and these in
turn so act as to occasion movement
Thus a light touch at one point causes
very pronounced movement Of the
leaves Of mimosa. And by striking a
group Of these plants with stick one
may cause wave of response which
resembles the effect of strong wind
on field Of grain. For the majority

of communicable diseases.

1.-THE above is the classification of the
most important communicable diseases
The question is what relation has SANTA
ton and hygiene to the incidence of cases
and mortality statistics in the above
classification of the causes of death and
the incidence of communicable diseases.
Some of them are clearly due to insani-
tary conditions and others to unhygienic
conditions pertaining to the individual and
some to combination of both. and others
which neither has anything to do.
DIR. Cunningham especially emphasized
the necessity of a general vaccination
campaign in the city of Birmingham He
is apprehensive for the future. Upon that
subject he has this to say:
II regard the prevention of smallpox
next winter as an emergency. Tt has
been increasing for three years. The in
different, scattered and uncertain vacci-
nation now practced will neither pro-
tect the individual or community. A uni
versal vaccination and revaecination
ought to be enforced next fall, except in
such cases who have been recently sue

largely solved"

he took charge of the office. In closing

courtesy shown him and expressed his
ambition of making Birmingham the
