Diseases of plants may be caused

beneath tho surface and cannot be

are carried In the air until they settle
upon leaf fruit or wood where they
terminate and grow, becoming the in
furious fungous tissue. II the leaves
or fruit are covered with q substance
which is poisonous to the fungus the
spores will be killed at the time they
Eerminate. Substances that thus pre-

medicine and water each and

enough to spray one cow each

made an autopsy" of one of the
dead ones. After DR.. Earle had
satisfied himself, as 10 the con.
ditlonS and cause of the death OF
the cattle, asked him what he
thought. He replied that it must
be a case of arsenical poisoning.
The cattle were all we'll and
hearty prior to being sprayed
The government furnishes DR..
Earle with an apparatus for the
testing of all solutions.
DR.. Earle tested the medicine
after my cattle had been sprayed
and part of them were dead and
he told DR.. Rallings that he had
made it a little too strong. After
making the barrel of solution he
should have tested it before any
of it was used but he didn't do it.
He told DR.. Rallings that he did
moi test it after he prepared it.
Still DR.. Earle is allowed to re-
lain his place. In the beginning
DR.. Earle talked very fair and
seemed willing to do the right
thing about the matter, realizing
as he did that it was his careless
ness that caused the death of
my cattle, and not DR.. Rallings.
DrS. Lewis and Earle came to
see me one day recently con-
corning the matter and they
efuSe to pay me for my CT It'll e
or to assist me in any way TO get
pay for them. From their con-
VerSation | am lead to believe
that DR.. Earle has or is trying to
lay the blame on DR.. Rallings,
who is perfectly innocent.

Cy and honest conscientious
work does not count for any
thing in the tick eradication

Vital Statistics Law insForce
The State, Friday.

The State, Friday.
The vital statistics law, which
was signed September /, will
become effective today, though
local registrars for about 200
townships in the State have not
yet been appointed. A prize
will be given to the first regis
trar correctly reporting birth
or death, with the element of
time of transmission of the
report taken into consideration.
Rules and regulations for the
proper registration of births and
deaths have been promulgated
by the bureau, according to the
provisions of the act, and forms
have been sent all appointees, or
local registrars, who must
appoint deputy registrars
10 serve In their places in case of
absence or disability.
Under the regulations a per-
NIT for burial issued by a local
registrar must be obtained before
the body of a person can be
inferred. This duty devolves
upon the undertaken, who in
turn has it checked by the per-
son in charge of the burying
ground. The attending physici-
an also has to fill Out certifi-
cate. The attending physician
or midwife at birth must file a
certificate within ten days after
date of birth, and in cases where
neither are present this duty
devolves on the father or mother
of the child.
The law provides that local
registrar shall receive Is cents

cate, properly executed and filed
