Sewage Disposal In Moscow.

The city Of Moscow has population
of about 1.5sO,OOO, and about 40 per
cent of the city is provided with sew
ers for household wastes. A separate
system of canalization is provided to
carry off the street washings. The
sewage is filtered on sewage fields, and
part OF it is subjected to biological
treatment on the city station The
sewage fields are giving very good re-
suits The waters after passing sew
eral filters are used to irrigate planta-
tons Of cabbage and other vegetables,
which find ready sale in the city.
The city is still making experiments
with the biological publication Of the
sewage.

Difficulties Of Arresting This Elusive
Product Of Combustion.
Suppose you had ali the money you
needed to hire experts. to erect flues
with numerous kinds of battles. water
sprays, fans-to even erect special
cinder producing plant to try out appa-.
ratus; in fact. suppose you had all the
resources magma BILE to enable you to
take cinders out of smoke. Easy! You
would conclude that you had the great

not The New York Edison company,
at its waterside stations. has all those
things and has spent years in trying
to solve the problem and knows. Nu-
merons experts have exercised their
skill and talent on the problem and
have failed. The Edison company's
engineers have finally developed sue
cessful cinder catching apparatus. The
first scheme was to precipitate the Gin
ders by reducing the velocity Of the
gases. but this proved futile. Next,
settling chambers. battles. screens. wa
ter sprays. ETC.. were tried Finally,
high gas velocity with sharp changes
in direction OF flow and impingement
on films and surfaces of water proved
successful. A special cinder producing
plant was erected to try out various
cinder catching apparatus.
A wind rose was charted and
showed that Is per cent Of the cinder
emitted from the stacks is blown into
the river. due to the prevailing winds
from the northwest The other portion
represents the area within which the
remaining "a per cent of the cinder
was distributed. This rose shows that
less than one-quarter Of the cinder
emitted was deposited in an area from
which complaints came This fact in.
dicates what large amount was
blown from the stacks. when less than
one-quarter of it caused the protests
that have been made It is from q
study Of this wind rose, perhaps, that
one can best appreciate how serious
this cinder problem is. or, rather, was,
since successful catcher has been de-
yised.-Power.

A FLY CATECHISM y

Where is the fy born? In manure
and filth.
Where does the fly live? In every
kind of filth.
Is anything too filthy for the fly to
eat? No.
Where does he go when he leaves
the surface closet and the manure pile
and the spittoon p Into the kitchen
and dining room.
What does he do there? He walks
on the bread. fruit and vegetables. He
wipes his feet on the butter and
bathes in the milk.
Does the fly visit the patient sick
with typhoid fever, consumption and
cholera infantum? He does-and he
may call on you next.
Is the fly dangerous He is mans
worst pest, and more dangerous than
wild beasts or rattle snakes.
What disease does the fly carry :?
He carries typhoid fever, consump-
ton and summer complaint. How?
On his wings and hairy feet. What is
his correct name? The typhoid fly.
Did he ever kill anyone? He kill
ed more American soldiers during the
Spanish-American war than did the
bullets of the Spaniards.
Where are the greatest number of
cases of typhoid fever, consumption
and summer complaint? ? Where there
are the most flies.
Where are the most flies ? Where
there is the most filth
Why should we kill the fly? Be-
cause he may kill us.
When shall we kill the fly? Kill
him before he gets wings-kill him
when he is maggot in the manure
pile-kill him while he is in the egg
state.
How? Keep the stables dry and
clean and don't allow any manure to
stay on the premises longer than a
week. Have all other filth and trash
accumulating on your premises re-
moved or burned at least once week.
If your neighbor fails to comply
with these rules and allows flies to
breed on his premises, to visit you,
screen your doors and windows and
keep them out.

MEDlCINAL MICROBES
Diphtherias Overcome by an Antagc-

Diphtheria Overcome by an Antagc-
nistic Germ.
An interesting experiment in the field
of what may perhaps be called mi,
crubic therapeutics is being made by
"a Minnea polls doctor, says the New
York Post It is, as the doctor him
self insists, only an experiment and
will require far wider test before any
Dife general conclusions can be drawn.
The experiment consists in the use OF
!, mold in the trea tment of diphtheria.
This minute little organism. which oc-
curs III nature as a parasite on the fly,
is placed in the throat of the dipth-
theritic patient and allowed to grow
there. According to DR.. Ten Broeck's
experience. its growth causes the de-
struction of the dipththeria bacillus
and thus brings about cure of that
disease. Its early use also helps to-
prevent the spread of infection He
has treated number of cases success
fully with his mold achula muscaris
and without the use of antitoxin He
finds, further. that the mold itself is
quite harmless and can be readily re-
moved from the patients throat after
it has done its work by the use of an
antiseptic gargle.
1t is perhaps worth noting in this
connection that some time ago pure:
cultures Of Tactic acid forming bacil-
lus had quite vogue for spraying
into certain forms of diseased throats
perhaps they have yet-the theory be-
ing apparently that the Tactic acid
germs acted in very much the same
| way as DR.. Ten Broeck's mold-viz,
by killing out the disease germs. 1t is
quite within the bounds of probability
that these medicinal microbes may
eventually come to hold almost as i'm
portant a place in herapeutics as do
the so called internal police of the,
body. the white blood cells or phago-
cytes. Attempts to make new applica-
hons of them are incidents of very
general interest.

WARNING

! Chapter 4e4-House Fi'e No. GOT
prohibits the taking of orders for in
toxicating liquors in dry territory
There has been a good deal of misua-
derstanding over this feature, but
this law covers the matter in clear
and un,1istakable manner. This law
was one Of the last passed at the last
session of the state legislature. Here
is the law as it appears on the sta
tute book.
Section l.-Orders for Intoxicating
liquor in dry territory prohibited. 1t
shall be unlawful for any person di-
rectly or indirectly, to solicit, take or
receive OR aid in the soliciting, taking
or receiving, either for himself or for
any other person, firm or corporation,
in any township, village or city in
this state in which a majority of the
votes at the last election, at which
the question Of license was voted,
shall not have been in favor of intoxi-
eating liquors; or for any itinerant
peddler to go from place to place
within this state and expose for sale
or sell such liquors, provided that
nothing in this act shall be construed
as modifying or repeating Sub-divi-
sion One of Section 1888, of the Re-
vised Laws of Minnesota for the year
Of 1905.
Section 2-Penalty for violation.
Any person who violates any Of the
provisions Of this act shall be guilty
of a misdemeanor and upon convic-
tion thereof shall be punished for
the first offense by fine of not less
than twenty-five (25) dollars or more
than fifty (50) dollars, or by impris-
onment in the county jail for not less
than thirty (30) days or more than
sixty (60) days, and upon conviction
of each subsequent offense shall be
punished by fine of not less than
sixty (60) dollars and not more than
one hundred (10O) dollars, or by i'm
prisonment in the county Jail for not
less than sixty (60) days or more
than ninety (90) days.

60 days, or by both such fine and inn
prisonment for each and every viola
tion thereof.
The smoking of cigarettes by mi-
nors within this state is prohibited
and shall be punished by a fine of not
more than $40 or by Imprisonment in
the county jail for not more than five
days, within the discretion Of the
court.
All money collected under this act
shall be divided one-half to the COM
mon school fund of the district where
the conviction is had, and one-half to
the party through whose information
the conviction is had.

THOSE CIGARETTES AGAIN.

There seems to be a stir in some of
our northern towns about the en-
forcement of the cigarette law. A
certain Mr. Houske, State Dairy and
Food Inspector, has been visiting sew
eral of these towns and has made
some arrests of minors guilty of
smoking the pill" as we'll as of
those selling to minors. In every
town we find the "pill-smokers'
among the boys yet in their teens,
and not seldom do we see small boys
transgressing that law. For the
benefit of those kids who possibly are
ignorant of the fact that it is a mis-
demeanor punishable by law for any
minor to use cigarettes, and for the
benefit of kids who think they must
use the cigarette and for all concern
ed we publish the following:
1t is unlawful to sell or give to mi
nors (under 21 years) cigarettes, ci-
garette papers or cigarette tobacco.
Any person violating the above
provisions shall be guilty of mis-
demeanor, and, upon first conviction,
snail be punished by fine of not less
than $50 nor more than $100, impris-
onment for not less than Is days nor
more than 60 days, or both such fine
and Imprisonment, and the cost of ac-
tion; and upon second conviction,
shall be punished by Imprisonment in
the county Jail for not less than 80
days nor more than 80 days, and his
license shall terminate.
1t is unlawful for any person to
sell or give away cigarettes, cigarette
paper or any paper prepared for the
purpose of being filled with tobacco,
without first obtaining license there
for.
Any person violating, the provi-
sions of the law for the sale of the
articles mentioned Except as to mi
nors) shall be guilty of misdemean-
or and shall be punished by fine of
not more than $100, or Imprisonment
in the county jail for not more than

A favorite topic for writing as, well
as for conversation these days is the
happy and propitious condition Of the
crop. From every section of the Red
River Valley come glowing reports
about the outlook for an abundant
harvest. All grain has made rapid
progress and if nothing unforeseen
happens we may experience the
greatest yield this section has seen
for several years. This part of the
Valley seems to be an especially fa-
vored spot ,one need not go far south
to find that early prospects for a
good crop have been blighted by an
overabundance Of rainfall; in some
places the farmers have been unable
to plow their corn, so that crop is set
back considerably.
