HEAVY SOIL EROSION
 IN THE SOUTH

Washington, D. c. Dec. 3.-The fol- lowing statement regarding soil ero- sion in the South is taken from the annual report of the Bureau of Soils, U. s. Department of Agriculture:
 In study of soil erosion in the South, it has been found that large areas are lost to agriculture annually through erosion. In some States vast areas, amounting to as much as 50 per cent of the arabic land of these sections, have been abandoned. The character of the erosion varies with the type of soil. Usually, on the heavy clay soils, "sheet" or surface erosion is found. With increasing proportion of sand in the soil the ero- sion changes to the "shoestring" type then to the gully type with rounded edges, and finally to the gullies with caving sides. The most rapid erc- sion seems to occur in soils having a layer of slit or clay at the surface and a substratum of sand. This con- dition usually leads to erosion of the deep gully type, which is difficult to check and unprofitabe to reclaim.
 All methods for prevention and control are based either on increasing the capacity for absorbing the water as 1t falls, or on decreasing the velo- city of the run-off. A new method in use in one locality is the construc- tion of what are known as "christo- phers," the distinctive feature of this plan lying in the manner of dispos- ing of storm waters. Across an in cipent gully is built dam, through which is passed sewer pipe connect ed with an upright pipe on the upper side of the dam. Water fills the val ley until it reaches the top of the upright pipe, and then flows down this pipe into the next field. The water left standing below the mouth of the upright pipe is gradually removed by tile drain. It is also demonstrated in the South that other crops must be grown than those requiring clean culture, as do cotton, corn, and tobac- co.,

 {. omphasizes the grave danger of al
 ouiug carriers to have to do with the
 nreuaration or handling of food in
 tended for general consumption. The
 .tll more recent typhoid outbreak at
 Iehigh University with more than sftv cases and several deaths has been raced likewise by the Pennsylvania State Department of Health to a kitchen employee who proved to be a healthy carrier. Such instances and they are multiplying fast-sug- gest that wherever feasible, employ ees handling foods liable to spread infection should be examined for a possible typhoid reaction in the blood. In case the reaction is positive, and even when it is negative, but there is a definite history of typhoid fever, bacterial examination for typhoid germs should be made. Application of the test could probably be made with little inconvenience in connection with the student dining halls of many educational institutions where proper baeteriologic facilities and expert ser vice exist We know of at least one American university where such a routine examination of the employees concerned in the handling of food has been practiced for several years past. The disaster at Lehigh shows that such precautions are justified, and that with our present knowledge of typhoid causation some responsibility in this regard may be justly expected from college authorities. There are also many hospitals, sanatoriums and public institutions in which the nec- essary facilities and skill for such ex- exist or could be readily provided, and here, too it is true that to be forewarned is to be forearmed. In the future uncomfortable questions may be asked when the carrier out breaks occur in large institutions that are provided with bacteriologic fac iities.

MADE MONEY BY FORGETTING.
Gazette Wrong in Discussion of Cas-
sidy's Action at Newport

The Hampshire Gazette is wrong on
its supposition that by forfeiting Sat
urday s game to Newport Umpire Cas-
sidy did not make any money. As has
been stated if the game had been
called off because of rain he would
have received So, and by declaring
Bellows Fails the loser he was eligible
to receive $40. The Gazette stated
that Cassidy would have received
enough when the double header is
played to make up what was lost on
the postponed game. This is not so.
The Twin State league rule in regard
to the jumps is as follows: Three am
pirca shall be employed by the league
directors and they shall ofticiate at all
games. Their employment or discharge
shall be entirely in control of the
board. Their salary shall he ten dol
lars (SlJ per game. which includes
expenses, and twelve dollars {Sl2) for
double headers, and shall he paid by
the home team after each game. and
their assignments shall be made by
the president of the league. For games
postponed on account of rain or other
cause, he shall he paid three dollars
$50 for expenses.
1t will he seen that an umpire re
ceivcs only - more for a double head
er than tor single game and that
would make Cassidy only 50 to the good
instead Of 81 which he made by for
friting the game Besides, he may not
be assigned to handle the Indicator
when the double header is played, if
the forfeit is not allowed.
President C.. j. O'Nei of Bellows
Falls has protested Cassidy to Presi-
dent Keycs as has President F. K. Muir
phv of Ncwuort.

Gave Brattleboro Game
at Greenfield
BOTH TEAMS HAD
LOT OF GINGER
Good Base Running Combined with
Two Errors Tells the Story Hara
and Devine Worked Double Steal
Fast Double Play a Feature.
GREENFIELD, July II.

BY taking every chance in the first inn
ing and combining good base running with
two errors Bratteboro scored the only
run of the game here yesterday in the
opening inning. Although Sager out
pitched Eggers, Brattleboro held on to
the one run lead throughout the game,
but Greenfield claims that an error of
Judgment by Umpire Fahey prevented "a
tie score.
With two down in the first inning
O'Hara hit to left and stretched the hit,
aided by a rather poor throw by Sharpe.
.O'Hara made third on Jones's tumble OF
Devines rap and with Devine worked a
double steal, when Crowther threw poorly
to the plate. In the same inning Sharpe
singled to right and after Partenheimer
had flied to Leonard, Crowther singled to
right and Sharpe tried to score, but Fahey
declared him out.
\ very fast double play, Eggers to Leon
ard to Grantield, was a feature of the
game and Leonard pulled off feature
stop Of hard drive by Connolly.
Brattleboro got the wrong end of de
cision in the ninth when Dixie made a
catch of a long drive by Jones, but Fahey
declared the fast outhelder trapped the
ball. 1t did no damage, however. The
Brattleboro team was on its toes all the
time and both teams showed lot of
ginger, something that has been lacking
in both. The score:
