A study of six hundred and fifty
epidemics of typhoid fever shows that
seventy-one per cent were traced To
impure water; seventeen per cent to
contaminated milk; and twelve per
cent to various other sources. 1t Is
evident from these figures, that if the
water supply were properly looked
after nearly three-fouths of the cases
of typhoid fever would not occur.
A general thaw at this season Of
the year, or a little later, is almost
sure to be followed by many cases of
typhoid fever. The typhoid bacteria
which have been carelessly thrown
upon the snow are released and car
ried down into the valleys by running
water where they may gain entrance
to wells by flooding or by some un-
derground channel. To prevent con-
tamination from above, the platform
should be raised and made water
tight The platform should be tight
to prevent organisms, which have
been left on the platform by track
ing, from being washed into the we'll.
Contamination by~underground meth
DDS can be detected by testing the
water for the presence of bacteria
normally found in sewage.
Water that is questionable should
be heated to the boiling point, or a
letter sent to the department of bac-
teriology, Moscow asking for infor-
nation and directions for taking and
shipping a sample for analysis.

SEED GRAIN TEST
ING FOR FARMERS

Recent statements in various news
papers published in Idaho would In.
dictate that tho inspection of seed
grain and enforcement of the pure
food law had been transferred to the
state horticultural inspector.
For the information of the numer-
GUS seedsmen and farmers of the
state, who have been inquiring re-
garding the matter, wish to explain
that such is not the case and that
hereafter all such inspection and seed
analyses will be made under the d.
rection of the university agricultural
extension department, Boise, as they
have been in the past. In order to
econimise, however, and increase the
efficiency of our funds, arrangements
have been made whereby the men
who are employed as deputy horticul-
tural inspectors will become deputy
seed inspectors also, with duties and
remuneration entirely separate from
those given them through the office
of horticultural inspection. Where
a horticultural inspector does not
wish to act also as seed inspector
someone else will be secured to do
the work in his district.
Seedsmen are requested to secure
copies of the seed law, and learn
what is required of them.
The seeding season is approaching
and many farmers have not had their
seed grain tested either for purity
Tor termination. This service is Of
Sc! ! grain tes'. eitf pr for 1t 'it'
fered free of charge to any who will
send samples of two TO four ounces,
Address all samples and commu-
nications to State Seed Commissioner,

CONTAMINATED WATER THE
CAUSE OF TYPHOID FEVER

1t is not possible to estimate the
value of lives lost nor the cost of car
ing for those suffering from typhoid
fever, very accurately, but conserv-
alive estimate places it at 100000
900 yearly in the United States. The
number of deaths each year average
$4,000. Precautions regarding the
use of food and water and better
general sanitation have reduced the
number of deaths in large cities of
northern Europe to nearly one
fourth of the number in cities of
the United States having the same
population. By the sanitary mea-
sures in the United States nearly
$4,000 lives could be saved each
year.

ORDER REPAIRS FOR ,EaliM MA
CHINERY NOW

This is the slack time of the year
in most industries. Farmers now
have surplus time on their hands a
part of which may we'll be spent in
going over their machinery for needed
repairs. The dealers and branch
houses can now execute all orders
promptly. Later the farmers have
less time for listing repairs, and
those from whom he orders them are
much more crowded for time and
there is more danger Of delays.
Again if the repairs are not at the
dealers or in a branch house there
Is still time to get them from the
factory. Later a new machine may
have to be gotten because delay in
ordering repairs for old machines
may be ruinous. Better order a set
of gears for the harvester or the
moving machine, though by good
fortune they may not be needed till
next year, than wait three days in
harvest for them to come after WIZ
ing. To be forehanded with the
handling of farm machinery is half
the battle of farming.

MORE EXPERIMENTAL SHEEP
FEEDING
Assistant Bacteriologist

Bulletin number II of the Idaho
experiment station now ready for
mailing reports in detail experiments
in feeding 813 lambs on alfalfa and
Idaho grown grains. Two things are
conclusively shown by the experiment
first, that lambs can be success
fully fattened on home grown small
grains land that our native lambs
can be used as means Of profitably
marketing alfalfa hay.
In order to ssv,-""". more 'nforma-
ton on sheep feeding than that 10
corded in Bulliten II extensive ex-
detrimental work has been planned
for this year. Two hundred twenty
old ewes and five hundred lambs will
be fed on the Caldwell experiment
station farm which is we'll situated
and adapted for experiments in ami
NAL feeding under south Idaho condi-
lions.
The ewes will be fed from a self
feeder on cut or chopped hay, and &C.
curate records kept of the amount Of
feed consumed and cost of same.
The lambs will be divided into three
lots of approximately the same num-
Der, averaging practically the same
in weight, type and thrift. One lot
will be fed alfalfa hay and straight
barley grain ration. So far barley
alone has not been fed in the Cald-
well experiments. In order to test
the claim frequently made that corn
fed with barley produces more rapid
and economical gains a second lot of
lambs will be fed three-rourths bar
ley and one-fourth corn. These two
lots will receive grain from the time
first put in the feedlot, starting on
not more than one -eighr pound per
head daily.
Many farmers belive it more
profitable to feed more heavily than
indicated above on alfalfa hay and to
withhold grain until four to six weeks
from time of marketing. Under this
system enought grain only Is fed to
pass the lambs off as grain finished.
In order to secure accurate figures
bearing on this question, third lot
Of lambs will be fed on alfalfa alone
for ten to twelve weeks after placed
' the feedlot and will then receive
a grain ration Of three-fourths barley
and one-fourth corn.
The corn need not be imported for
the reason that the area devoted to
corn was extensive in south Idaho this
year and enought for the proposed ex-
periments can be produced near the
farm.
The results of the experiments will
be made public next spring. Results
so far reported can be had by writing
the Director of the Idaho Experiment
station, Moscow, for Bulletin number

Men.

OAKLAND, CAL, Apr. 3.-The Rev.
Frank L. Goodfellow, pastor Of the
First Presbyterian church of Oakland,
recently distributed the following new
commandments among the women
members of his congregation:
"Thou shalt not marry for revenue
only, not for fear of being an oldmaid,
for it is better for thee to remain sing
ly all thy days than to make matri-
mony matter of money, or to be a
mere plaything.
After marriage thou shalt not so
far forget thy personal appearance as
to greet thy husband clad in an old
wrapper, or with hair askew, or with
slippers run down at the heels, for not
so was thy appearance when thy hus
band chose thee as his companion for
life.
Thou shalt not become a fashion
plate, nor make thyself a spectacle to
the gaping crowd, nor dress so as to

furnish jokes for the comic papers
thus causing thy husband or thy sor
or thy brother to blush for thee, for il
is better for thee to be out of vogue
than vulgar.
Thou shalt not leave thy children to
the tender mercies of thy neighbors,
or to run wild on the streets, even to
attend the missionary meeting, or to
make California dry
"Thou shalt not be jealous of thy
neighbor if she rides in limousine
while thou are compelled to use the
trolley car, for it is better to ride on
trolley car than in an automobile with
a mortgage on thy home, and many
women who ride on the trolley car are
happy, wise and respectable.
"Thou shalt not make thy home
place of complaining and faultfinding,
lest they husband acquire the habit of
thinking that every evening is lodge
night, and they sons and daughters
Iinger long away from home, and thy
friends fail to return thy social calls,
and thy advertisements for help be
in the papers continually.
Thou shalt not forget thy Bible and
thy God, and thy attendance at wor-
ship shall not be matter Of Their
mometer or barometer, for such Chris
tians are poor mothers, while they who
serve the Lord are blessed even to
thousand generations.
Thou shalt not aspire to be man
or other than noble woman, for

stopped because He had reached the !.
