IS well as to those of the interior :
 It is almost automatic that spring IS the most dangerous time of the year in Yukon. The hospitals then nave the most patients, and the death list mounts highest. There are various causes, and among them the bringing in oi contagious diseases by the spring influx Of travellers, the exposure tC which peo ple submit themselves in new work, and the release by the thaw of dangerous accumulations of filth the like which find a way into water supplies. Other causes also might be cited, but those named cover in a general way, most of the sources, and 1t is well at this time of the year for everyone to recall the dangers and to guard against them. Some of the most aggravat- ing epidemics which prevailed here have been traced to travellers from the outside coming in just at this Teriod. Measles, scarlet fever, whoouing cough and smallpox have been on the list, and they have wrought their damage 10 the extent Of causing schools to close and in volviug heavy government eXpendi- tIye in wipiug out the diseases, even to the necessity Of costly campaigns among the distant h. dian tribes.
 In the light of the past, it is but wise to prepare against repeti- tious of the adverse experiences in the past. The police and other of dcers at the boundary and in the south end can serve to advantage in guarding the gateway 10 the terri tory, and in Dawson and vicinity the officials on whom the duties are eucumbent can be given valu- able assistance by the people them selves.
 If everyone will cooperate on pre- cautionary lines untold sickness may be diverted, and To one have to face blame or regrets.

ANCIENT WRITING.
The History of Man Began When an
 Alphabet Was Devised.

Perhaps the most valuable inven. tiou after thc making of languages was that of writing. says writer in
 students Iuyestigat tiOns" Picture writing was the first used by primi- tive men, such as was and still is used by the Indian tribes of the new world. The characters in this system of writ ing were pictures of objects very crude in art, as for instance the picture of the eye, to indicate the organ of sight, and then again symbols for ideas were drawn, such uS a picture of an arc. representing tue sky and wavy lines beneath. thus indicating rain This system of representing ideus and ob- iects. which is the most natural to man. Is known as ideographIc, aud the signs are called ideograms.
 When the picture writer used sym. bo,S 10 represent the sounds of the human vuice-that is. words and not objects or ideas-he took a great step in pcrrecting the system of writing When symbols are used to represent words the ideogram becomes d phonO- gram. and the writing is called pho Getic or sound writing, The BabyIuni ans and AsSyrianS used characters ia represent syllabies instead of words. thus reducing fhe number of signs used in their writing to a few hun dred. When characters or symbols are used to represent syllables they are called syllable phonOgrams, and a collection of such signs is called q Syl labary,
 But still this system was clumsy. and a final step was taken in the mak. ing of an alphabet the symbols being used to represent elementary sounds of the human voice instead of sylla bles. The symbols then became true letters, a collection of which is called the alphabet, the writing alphabet When and where the first alphabet was made is not known, but several Semitic tribes were in possession of an alphabet as early as the ninth cen. tury B. C. It may truthfuIly be said that the history of man begins here. for without an alphabet records. dates. names and events could not have been recorded and preserved for Us.

Several weeks ago there were seven
candidates in the field for the nomina-
ton for county treasurer, but the re-
port is current now that the only names
that will appear on the official primary

Ter. editor Of the Hyattsville Independ-
ent. of Hyattsville, and A. T. Brooke. of
Upper Marlboro. The latter indorsed

BREEDING. ONLY BEST CATTLE
Counterfeit Dairy Cow Has No Place
on Pasture or In Feed Yard
Discard Poor Producers.

(By ROUD MCANN, Colorado Expert
ment Station)
The development Of the increasing
demand for well-bred dairy cattle 10
based upon the recognition of the fact
that under present production condi-
tions, the counterfeit dairy COW has
no place on the pasture or in the feed
yard.
During the past few years difficulty
of replenishing and starting herds
with good animals has confronted the
dairy farmer at every turn. High
feed bills have demonstrated the fu-
tility of expecting satisfactory returns
when keeping poor producers. and the
wideawake. progressive. businesslike
dairymen are centering their demands
on merit, Of which there must be
greater supply to meet this demand.
Foreign competition has created
well grounded impression that the
most effective way Of evading II is
by greater production per animal and
better products.
