SURGEON DID NOT

Father Of Young Moss and Off,
Ger Himself Deny Intimation
of Admiral FuIIam.

ANNAPOLIS. July 1.-The indirect
reference to Surg. r. w. Mcdowell,
u. s.. N. before the court of inquiry,
which is investigating examination con-
ditions at the Naval Academy. as a
possible source of the advance copies
of the modern languages examinations
received by Midshipman Moss, was re-
futed today by Robert Moss. father of
Midshipman Moss and also his counsel
in the proceedings and by Surgeon Nc
Dowell himself
The intimation was given in the tes-
timony of Admiral Fullam. superintend-
ent Of the Academy, who said that Mr..
Moss had suggested Surgeon McDowell's 8
name In this way. Mr.. Moss stated he
meant to convey to Admiral Fullam that
some one might have sent the papers
to Midshipman Moss, thinking that he
was doing Surgean Mcdowell a favor.
He stated positively that he had no
reason for believing that Mcdowell had
anything to do with It,
Surgeon Mcdowell testified he had
been on sea duty for a year previous to
the last examination, and had no
knowledge whatever of the incident.
The court overruled a petition filed
by Lieut. X. r. Smith as counsel for
Midshipman w. II. Hopkins, who asked
that the latter be discharged as a de-
fendant because all the incidents which
connected him with the inquiry occurred
previous to the last examination 1t Is
understood the court would not take
any action.

fringe on the Monroe doctrine.
Experts say that the radius of opera
ton of the German subma rines is in
creasinS and nthis score 1t Is not i'm
possible that the establishment of a
base off the Canadian coast or possibly
on the American coast might be at
tempted
A high Official said he knew of no
case which seemed closely to parallel
the alleged plan of the Germans to
seize Canadian territory whence to con-
duct operations against shipping--or
the talked-of German invasion OF Can
ada which was current earlier In the
war--except the French invasion of
Mexico at the time of the civil war.
You might study what we did In
that case he observed.
In that case, as soon as the United
States was safely emerged from civil
war, General Sheridan was sent to-
ward the Mexican border The French
troops did not linger.
The establishment of submarine
base off Canada would not parallel the
situations which arose earlier In the
war wherein belligerent navies were
charged with violations OF neutrality
off the coast Of Chile and of Ecuador.
The United States made no protest In
those cases.
But Canada is engaged in the war
and this would be legal factor in the
case which would have to be given
careful consideration.

PURDUE CALLS
attention TO
FARM timber
Urges Farmers to Guard
Wood Lots and Advises of
Best Markets to Sell Their
Timber.

The extension department at Purdue
university is cooperating with the
United States Forest Service in a
study of the farm wood lots in Indiana
This study is being made for the pur-
pose of encouraging the wood lot own
ers to give more attention to farm
timber
According to the 1910 census the
farm wood lots Of the state yield S.
COB, 900 each year in saw logs, handle
bolts, cooperage stock, excelsior wood,
posts, poles, piling, farm repairs and
fuel. The material comes from $780,
791 acres Of farm wood lands and is
exclusive of the timber land and tim
Der produced on areas not a part Of
some farm The annual return per
acre is 1857
The farm wood lot in Indiana has
been particularly neglected largely due
to the fact that in the past timber
has been plentiful and the possibilities
Of marketing wood lot timber have
been limited. This condition, however;
is rapidly disappearing, and today the
farmer if familiar with market con-
ditions can generally find a ready
market for his timber, especially the
better grades, at satisfactory prices.
Such timber as white oak, walnut,
hickory and ash are particularly in
demand and If sold directly to the
mills using them can be handled
profitably.
It has been the practice in the past,
in large measure, for the farmer
to sell to a speculator or jobber who
has been 8 ,tting most of the margin
of profit from the timber. BY selling
directly to the mills the farmer will
receive better returns and it is the
purpose of the extension department
to- put the farmers in direct touch
with the markets for timber. It is
also prepared this summer to make
examinations for wood lot owners
with recommendations as to the best
methods of caring for and improving
the farm woodlots to bring them to
the highest state Of productivity
Where marketable timber Is found on
the woodlots the owner will be given
the marketing information necessary
to put the timber to its most profitable
use. Full information may be had by
writing to Purdue university, Agricul-
tural Extension department, Lafayette,
Indiana,

ing places for nies and other unsani-
tary conditions in his district.
Restaurants, meat markets, milk
depots, bakeries, ETC., are visited at
intervals, and report is made on all
the flies which can be counted in a
certain number of minutes. The re-
ports are all tabulated on large map
at headquarters, so that a comparison
is always possible between different
districts.
The conduct of the work and the
discipline of the junior force are as
far as possible left in the hands OF
the boys themselves. This movement
Is an interesting illustration of the
growing tendency on the part of
health officers to utilize the public
and to work along recognized psyche
logic lines. Probably every boy from
IL to 16 desires above all things to be
q policeman and to wear a badge. II
he cannot fight crooks, says The
Journal of the American Medical AS
ISOLATION, the next best thing is fight
ing flies. If the enthusiasm engen-
dered by several generations of "Old
Cap. Collier" dime novels can be uti.
lized in fighting flies, or, better still,
In f1shting the filthy conditions under
which flies breed, the public health
propaganda will have gained valu-
able ally.

How Detroit Fights
..~ .. A gainst Fly "Pest'''

The Injunction to swat che ny" has
become general all over the country.
To this in the last few years has been
added the additional Injunction to
swat him early. Spring ny campaigns
are now flature Of the public health
work in many of our cities.
An especially effective popular
movement In this direction is now be-
ing carried on in Detroit, under the
direction of the local board Of health.
Taking advantage OF the human fond
ness for rivalry and competition, the
boys of the different wards and Sec
lions OF the city are being organized
under one chief junior sanitary in
spector and "a junior sanitary inspec-
tors.
Under each inspector are from Ave
to seven captains. Under each cap
tain are from two to seven lieuten-
ants. This furnishes a force Of "a in
spectors, 125 captains and 900 lieu
tenants. Each lieutenant has as many
patrolmen as he can enlist. In all,
over 1000 boys are enrolled in this
movement.
Each Of these young health workers
is provided with a suitable and i'm
posing badge. Each lieutenant is pro-
vided with map OF his district which
he returns, showing all manure piles,
uncovered garbage receptacles, breed.
