Man. u gregarious animal. lcves to fiy Where he the trackings of the herd
 can spy." Crabbe.
 And that Is just exactly one more reason why Alaska, and incidently Nome. is going to feel the steady up- ward pressure from this moment. Man Is gregnrious. He has always been sc and always will be SO. Ho will fellow the herd in any direction 1t heads md most especially will he fol- lew the herd when 1t Is headed in the direction of new opportunity and new eEdeavor.
 With the herds of the lower animals IT., going and coming Is directed by instinct. The leaders are searching for food or for water or for something else of benefit to themselves. and the herd trails along after the leaders be- cause 1t knows that 1t will receive some of the benefit when the food or water is found.
 Man has a bit more intelligence than the ordinary brute. To be sure he is gregarious and will follow the herd bu, he will not stay with the herd f hc finds that the leaders have made 6 mistake. For man thinks for him. self and will start out on q hunt of his own when the herd gets into dry ard unproductive land.
 Just now it would seem that the heads of the leaders of the hcri were turned in the direction of Alaska. More than that. the leaders have talk. on the first step into the new pasture lsnd and the herd will follow. and ie the land prove worthy, the herd will stay. But 1t will not stay in a hud died mass around any one spot. The pasture is large enough, has untrod fields enough for the herd to spread cut.
 The diffrence between the animal herd and the man herd in case of thls kind is that the animal herd will spread out aimicssiy over the pasture to which 1t has been led by the herd lenders. Without any other sense than une of instinct 1t will amble from spot to spot culiing what it can hero and there. It does not reason about the manner of it's coming or its going. :tI does not look into the future possibil- itics of the pasture next beyond. The nnimat herd just grubs along satisfied tho pickings of today.
 But the man herd Is not like that. ThA herd will start in the wake of the len nders. but 1t will not continue in the wake. nor will 1t be satished with the| cuiiinEs of the day. The -man herd. scm~ of the members at least. will stop Icng enough to figure things out for| themselves and win decide to eitherl

Now that he Panama canal is fin isEed and about to be opened to com merce 1t would seem that our friends the Japanese might stop blackguard-
 ing the people of the United States for not wanting them to come into the land and take from our own people the profits of tilling the soil. might nIgive us for not wanting our homes Lebauched and our people contaminat-
 d by their influence.
 Tn the first place Japan owes all that she is today to the United States. though in her arrogance she will not admit 1t. and . glance at That the
 ,pening of the canal viii mean to her will show that much of her future will also be due to the efforts Of our na . ton.
 There is a great deal of freight ship ped from Japan to the eastern states as we'll as to Europe which comes across the Pacific and is then trans shipped by rail to New York. Some oi this freight comes in Japanese bot toms and some of 1t now comes in American bottoms.
 With the opening of the Panama canal Japan will ship in her own bot toms direct to New York and to points on the eastern coast of South Amer fen and she will find. especially in South America. wonderful new mar kcts for her mattings and silks and many other products.
 Also her ships. which now ply to European ports by way of the Suez canal, some of the ships. not all. but the ships carrying cargoes billed all the way through in either direction. will probably use the new route.
 Already Japan Is increasing her mer- chant marine for the purpose of enter ing into competition with the ships or the world in the carrying trade. She already has her commercial agents sprinkied all through South America and already certain of the coast cities of the United States are fearing the increase in Japanese shipping.
 The opening of the Panama canal will add tenfold to the riches of Japan. md 1t Is all done at the expense of someone else. just like all of the good hat has come to the Japanese nation.
 Her education. her commercial ad- her military prowess. all taken from the other nations of the world. The only thing that Japan has ttat she did not steal from America or Europe is her art and she lifted that from China.
 Now we are making the one thing which is most needfui for the island empire at this time possible. her com mercial expansion. And yet over in Tokyo they are calling us Yankee pigs and striving to force the government Into war which would in the end be ,hout the most disastrous thing that tho mikado ever tackled. And tho one md only reason for all of this ingrat- tude and this fire eating jingo talk s that the people of the states of tho vest coast desire to inhabit their own and in peace without the contamina- . Ing influence of another and an alien acc and the American workingman }. the west does not choose to bs push d out of his rightful Held by half ,tarved Oriental who will work for less han white man can live on.

nure piles and all other breeding
places.
hookworm can be prevented
by the proper destroying of the
discharges of .he human body.
This can be accomplished by the
placing of the Kentucky sanitary
closet az all schools and public
buildings that have no sewer
connections. Where there are
sewer connections the common
flush closet is a very sanitary
way of disposing of the school
sewage.
Malaria which is caused BY the
malarial mosquito also can be
prevented. To do this one must
externinate the mosquitoes. not
by killing the individuals. but by
destroying their breeding plac-
rs, their shelters. or their food
supply. To destroy the breel-
ing places one must drain all
pools, marshes and wet land near
the house, especially to wind
ward. Ponds which cannot De
drained are best treated by coal
oil. This forms a film on the
surface through which the larvae
cannot pass TO get air, and with
out air they die. In some parts
of the country drainage is almost
impossible. In such places screen
ing of the houses is the chief
protection.

A WORD TO THE BOY.

A boy at Is years Of age is, IN
our opinion, at the most impor-
tant period Of hls life. He is
at the fork Of the road. What he
needs more than anything else
IS sympathy and advice. 1t would
be strange indeed, if boys did
not build castles in Spain at that
age, and what they need is the
practical suggestions of someone
who is himself a success in life,
to guide them. Most people think
that boys do not need sympathy
or advice. IL is a great mistake.
They need it as much as girls.
We have never known one of
them 10 refuse TO take advice if
II were rendered at the right
time, in the right place and in
the right spirit. The mistake
that most people make in talk
ing 10 boys ~ that they lecture
them in season and out, perse-
cute them with all sorts of foolish
suggestions, and expect more
from them than they would
a man. Ii we had any word of
counsel TO give il would be: don I
lecture n boy. Don't prosecute
him if he has done wrong. Don Z
laugh NJ him If he has failed, per
haps in some over ambitious boy
iSh schemes. Don't crush him.
Don break his spirit. Give he
boy n chance Show him his mis-
take, and then show him what he
should do. When you crush a
boys spirit YOU have ruined the
boy-in all probability he will
blossom into a fiist-class dude.

Sanitation.

faSteur said, II is within TIE
power of man to drive all infec-
tious and contagious diseases
from the earth. y
Out of the 81 1853 deaths regis.
tered in Kentucky for the pre-
ceding three years ending Janu-
AIRY |, 1914, 1892 were caused
by preventable diseases. The
most prevalent diseases that are
preventable are tuberculosis.
TYPHOID fever, malaria. and hook
worm. The greatest number of
deaths from a preventable dis
ease in Kentucky last year was
from tuberculosis. tuberculosis
produces twice aS many deaths as
amy other disease. killing one out
of every six.
The germs of tuberculosis are
|e0niained in countless numbers in
the sputum of cOnsumptives.
Therefore the sputum of these
eases should be destroyed. The
room occupied by them should be
large and well ventilated with an
open fire place if possible. No
one should sleep in the room with
the sick person unless their
sputum is carefully collected and
destroyed. They should be
taught not to spit upon the
floor in amy public or private
building. Dishes used by them
should not be washed with the
dishes used by the rest of the
household.
An schools and public buildings
should be supplied with sanitary
drinking fountains as the pub
lie drinking cup spreads tubercu-
losis and other diseases.
Typhoid fever is probably the
most preventable of all diseases.
The germs of the disease are
contained only in the discharges
from the bowels and kidneys of
those sick of il, and il is neces-
sary for u person TO swallow
some of the discharges or things
polluted by them, in some way,
in order 20 contract the disease.
They usually gain entrance 10
the stomach through infected
water from wells and streams.
Such matter may also be carried
by flies and deposited on the
food, utensils, and hands in un-
screened kitchens and dining
room. Ice from infected water
is also dangerous. as freezing
does not kill germs.
Every house should be screen
ed against the deadly housefly.

How to Produce Good
Seed Irish Potatoes

geny of each hill separate, and take
the same data asst outlined for the tu-
ger unit. Plant on the tuber-unit basis
the following season. For sake Of I'M
iformity, definite number of tubers =
or more should be planted from
each hill selection. From this poiut
on the methods given in the tuber-
unit work should be followed.
The only requirements for the sue
cessful practice of the two methods Of
seed selection are a reasonable de-
gree of painstaking effort on the part
of the grower, some 12-inch garden
labels, small pair of balances, a SUI
ficent number of suitable small sacks
and safe place in which to store the
selected tubers until required by the
next seasons planting In addition to
this, the grower should have a breed
ing plat in which each seasons selec-
tons can be developed up to the point
of field-planting stock
The selection Of breeding plat need
not necessarily be divorced from the
general field plat. In most cases it
can be more conveniently handled #
it is part of the regular field. All
that is required is to set aside as many
rows as may be required to plant the
selected tubers. These should be pre-
ferably on one side of the field so that
they can be more readily observed. The
planting burrows may be open, and a
