! Investigations Being Made In all Parts o
the United States.
Most of the people on the farms
snd in the villages and smaller
ties of the United States obtain
their domestic water supplies from
underground sources. Ground
waters are also extensively used
throughout the ooountry for live
stock, railroad, and other indus.
trial supplies and for irrigasi gu .
The United States Geological Sur.
vey early recognized the great
Importance of the ground waters
and the numerous complex prob.
lems relating to their development
for human use. Hence for many
years is has carried on investi ga.
tions and surveys of these waters.
Much more work has been done
in certain States than in others.
but every state has received some
attention.
In 80 far as il practicable these
reports give. for every locality
that is covered. the depths, char.
acter, and yields of the underly .
ing wsser.besring beds, the height
to which the water from each bed
will rise in wells and the prospects
of obtaining flows, the quality of
the water in each bad for domestic,
industrial, or irrigation use, the
best meth Ids If sinking wells. the
cost of wells and of pumping, the
d -pth below which drilling should
net be carried, the precautlo rs
that should be taken to prevent
pollution, and the total quantity
that can safel be pumped.
The largest ground water de-
velopment IN late years have been
those designed TO provide water
for irrigation, and consequently
most OF the Geological Surveys
REQ .nt work has been done in the
western part of the county. Ac
cording to the Census report
4. $50, 600 acres we're irrigated in
ths arid and ssmi-arid Statss~ in
1909 with we'll water, more than
twc-thirds Of which was brought
to the surface by pumping. At
the present time the acreage is
considerably larger. Most of the
irrigation with ground water is
done in California, but further
developm 'nts are possible in every
western State. Moreover, irri-
CATION with ground water is not
confued to the arid regions. The
census report shows that in 1909
more than 4 400 wells were pump.
ed in Louisians, Texas and Arkan
sss for the irrigation of 1000
acres of rice, and pumping plants
for irrigating fruit and vegetables
are installed in several localities
IN the east. A function of the
Geological Survey is to show
where further developments of
ground water for irrigation can
profitably be made, aud what is
still more important, to warn
homeseekers against settling on
arid land and then attempting
developments that are nor prso-
tlcabIe.
Very brief reports have been
publit he'd OIL each of the States of
the Mississippi, and more detailed
reports on the Coastal Plain of
Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia
and eastern Tennessee, the reports
on Alabama, Virginia, and North
Carolina being published by the
respective State Surveys.

Pellaqra Increasing
Public Health Announces a Cause and Sug-
gests a Remedy.

geSlS htmsuJ.
Pellagra seems 10 be on the in
crease. This is trEe not SO much
of North Carolina, perhaps, as else
where. A very probable snswei
so tie why and wbsrefore of the
situation is cffsrsd by Joseph
Goldberger, Sergson in charge of
Psllsgrs investigation for the Uni
ted State. Public Health Service.
DR.. Goldbergsr claims that pei
lagra is not contagious, Infectious
or even communicable, but is due
to faulty diet The trouble with
the dists of people who develop
pellagra, according to Surgeon
Goldberger, is that~they do not
eat enough lean meat, beans, peas,
milk and eggs, but eat despropor-
t onately large amounts of such
things as grits, laolases, fakes,
cora meal, or other starchy foods.
Az general rule. according to
Dr.. Goldbsrger's findings, pei.
lagra is particularly 4 disease of
the poor, or where it does strike
an individual member of a we'll. to.
do family it is one that for some
reason has not been eating a we'll
balanced diet. Accordingly the
apparent inorease in pellagra is
due to a more restricted diet ow.
ing. perhaps, to the recent slight.
ly depressed financial conditions
among our people.
The daily diet recommended by
Dr.. Goldberger for an adult pel"
lagrian should iuelude pint and
a half to two pints Of milk, at
last four eggs aud a half pound
of fresh, lean m sat, together with
liberal allowance of reas and
beans These art Giles Of diet
should be varied somewhat from
time to time to suit the tssts of
the patient. Very little. if any,
medicines are reecsmnaended OF
are found necessary. In this con.
nectlon Dr.. Goldberger cites some
causes of moro or less fraudu.
lent so.called pellagra cares that
are being heralded as sure curee
for pellagrs at good, stiff prices.
and what's more, their patrons
a getting cured. According to
Dr.. Goldbsrger, it matters little
whether person is given a solu.
tion of salt aud water, sugar and
waser or any other cheap concoc.
tion at a dollar or two an ounce
for so long as the patient follows
the instructions of eatiLg libsral-
ly of such things as meat, milk,
eggs, beans and peas the chances
of his getting veil are very strong.
