WORK AS
 CHAIRMAN COMMITTEE

Little Rock, April 2.-Hon Carroll Armstrong, of Conway county, sec ond oldest member of the Arkansas Legislature, has just concluded his work as chairman of the Committee on Enrolled Bills in the House. Mir. Armstrong has a most remarkable record. He is seventy years old, the only member who is older being ex- governor Dan w. Jones, now in his seventy-ffth year. Col. Armstrong never missed a roll-call in the House, and never missed a night session. He was one of the most faithful in the discharge of duty. He was puncti- lious in his reports of the time of de- livering bill to the governor, always giving the exact minute. This seem- ed unnecessary, but it's importance was emphasized when a question of minutes controlled the issuance of saloon licenses under the terms of the Newberry statewide prohibition bill.

mission and every portal of entry for the germs. Human carriers of ty- phoid and diptheria germs, themselves immune to attacks of the maladv ara now watched for in nearly every com munity, and the danger which they represent as a latent source of infec- tion is clearly recognized. Doubtless says The Journal of the American Medical Association, many of these possibilities for spreading disease without the presence of detectable symptoms are still unrecognized. In typhoid, 1t has been shown that some of the lower animals may be made typhoid carriers; and attention has lately been directed to such animals as might be expected to become car riers by reason of their environment or habits. Mitchell and Bloomer of the bacteriologic laboratory of the University of Missouri have pointed out that the chicken is a domestic animal which might often come into contact with typhoid discharges. The mechanical transference of typhoid bacilli on the feet and bill of a chick en does, without question, occur. By various methods they have attempt ed to follow the germ. From the work of the Missouri bacteriologists it would seem that the hen is highly res istant to typhoid. It not only fails to take the disease, but apparently cannot be made a carrier except in a mechanical way.

James Cruze is an athlete and gets ample opportunity to show it in "The Twenty Million Dollar Mystery" the new Thanhouser-Mutual serial in which he plays Jim Baird, the hero.

She was stand ing on corner in New Rochelle, clutching a penny sucker, when Cruze half block distant noticed a boy on a bicycle swerve close to the curb, snatch the candy and pedal swiftly away.

ly because the scarcity of feed does not justify the Arkansas cattle raiser fin keeping them. He is forced to sell. or lose money.
 The greatest cause of this decrease fin the number of home cattle, however. is death. Cattle, like other domestic animals are heir to many diseases. Every year cattle raisers of this state lose hundreds of thousands of dollars on cattle dying from tick fever, but the most rapacious disease among Arkan. sas cattle and the one that causes more deaths than probably any other one factor, fig starvation. aided more or less by last seasons tick crop
 We say we cannot afford to buy feed for those starving animals, yet there is one resource. our credit. It would pay to mortgage those cattle to raise the price of a little grain for them to eat. In early summer when they have had a chance to fatten we can sell gage. Two pounds of cotton seed meal per day contain more nourishment than all those bleached out stalks a COW can hold. In sixty days we shall begin to have good pastures. Twen. ty heat eat forty pounds day. Sixty days requires 2,400 pounds of cotton seed meal.

SPRAYING THE IRISH . POTATO F0R BLIGHT
6OROEAUX MIXTURE USED SUC- CESSFUllY AT EXPERIMENT STATION FARM AT FAYETTE- VllE-OTHER MIXTURES.

The early crop of Irish potatoes in Arksnsas IS especially subject to frut troubles that can be kept out largely Dy spraying. These are the early Dilght, sometimes called black rust, ana the Colorado potato beetle, some. tlmes called simply the potato bug. me early blight causes the loss often as much as fifty per cent of crop because of the failure to form tubers. u makes matters worse in dry sea- son. and in dry seasons causes tho greatest trouble. Every Irish potato grower should spray for the blight because 1t is so wide spread that there is hardly a potato patch in the state free from it, and we should spray also for the potato beetles if they appear in the potato patch. The spray for the beetles can be simply added to the regular spraying for the blight and will cost no more for ap. phcation, the only cost being the small amount for the poison.
 For the early blight use Bordeaux mixture at the strength of 4-4-6O. This IS the ordinary Bordeaux mixture. For the potato beetle you can add to this mixture when you are making the or olnary spraying, five or six ounces of Paris green to every 50 gallons of spray mixture, or you can use two or three pounds of arsenate of lead paste to 50 gallons of this spray mixture.
 The regular spraying will be given as follows: The first one when the po- tato plants are about inches high, the second and third ones at intervals of about two weeks following this. Usually these three will be sufficien. In any ordinary season.

ccuOOLS AND EPIDEMICS

Doubt as to the wisdom of closing schools in epidemics of contagious dis ssse is expressed by Dr. Francis r.orce Curtis, of Newton, Mass, in a huletin on the Health of School cb;ldren7 just issued by the Bureau of Education. He says: If the schools are closed when an outbreak oecurs, the children are turned loose from supervision; they mingle freely with one another in the streets, on Dlavcrounds. and in each others houses. They are having an extra va cation and enjoying themselves thor Ouphly and are unwilling to admit that they feel ill, lest they be kept at home and prevented from having a good time. For this reason they will not say they feel ill until the disease is well advanced, and they may be active sources of infection for some time before it is discovered that they are i'll.
 If the schools are kept open the children continue in the classrooms as usual they are under strict obser- yaton and examined daily by the school physician, suspicious and in- fected cases being sent home for ob- servation or treatment.
 Tn this way many children are sent home before they have had an oppor- unity to infect others, thus reducing the probability of spreading infection. Further than this, the attention of the parents is called to the fact that the child is feeling ill and he is brought under treatment earlier,
 It seems, therefore, that keeping the schools open offers the best chance of safety for the pupils. both collec- lively and individually
 Instead of closing the schools and allowing the children to be scattered and removed from supervision when an outbreak appears the schools should be kept open as usual and the children urged to attend. The school physician and nurse should be detail ed to the school where the outbreak has appeared and instructed to ex- anime every child daily, excluding such as appear ill or suspicious. This can ee done with very little distur- Oance of the school work. A note must be sent to the parent stating mat the child seems, or is. i'll and must n be seen by the family physician. suspicious cases must be ordered to 'enlsn at home until further notice. anu II necessary, must be visited in O'uer to settle the diagnosis. Absen- F's must be rounded up and examined 'l order to find out why they have ~ S''H kept at home. If they are i'll, '~ey must be isolated, and, if well. urged to return to school"
