and remain for long an active menace.
1t cannot remain suspended in the air
and retain it's power for activity, but
expelled by the cough or sneeze into
the face, the mouth or nostrils of an
other person, it becomes dangerous,
for it Immediately finds lodgment in
the new host where every condition
favors continued activity. 1t is in
such manner that the diseases of the
throat and lungs are transmitted-tu-
berculosis, colds, influence and bron-

Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring you run
and stop it or go and help to put out
the fire? 1t is much the same way
with cough. A cough is danger
signal as much as fire bell. You
should no more try to suppress it than
to stop fire bell when 1t is ringing,
but should cure the disease that
causes the coughing. This can nearly
always be done by taking Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Many have
used it with the most beneficial re-
suits. 1t is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often
follows bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An

HOW DISEASES ARE
CAUGHT.
+ *+*+ + + + + + + + + !. +

Life is continuous struggle to live
to keep what we have. But the old
ideas-fanciess they might be called
as to how diseases are transmitted
need considerable revision.
People still labor under the delu-
sion that infectious diseases are
spread by contact with things, while
the fact is, that infected individuals,
not things, are the real menace. Some
are afraid to touch car strap or a
book that has been used by strangers,
and some, much as they like money,
insist on having new bills, and only
under the stress of unavoidable cir
cumstances will they break the rule
and take what they can get.
Dr. Alvah H. Doty, formerly health
officer of the port of New York, has
quite recently discussed the subject,
showing the foolishness of the dear,
deluded people in their fear that in
fection turks everywhere in public
conveyances, in clothing, money, rags,
and car straps and that diseases are
conveyed through and by such means.
If infectious diseases were really con-
veyed by such media, one of the best
carriers imaginable would be old rags,
and test of this theory would be
found in the rag markets Of Alexan-
dria, Egypt, where the rags are large
ly the cast off clothing of the ma
tives, much of which is gathered from
the interior where infectious diseases
are always prevalent. Yet the Brit
ish sanitary officers have never dis
covered infection among the men, wo-
men and children whose sole occupa-
ton is to handle the rather disgusting
merchandise.
In the Bureau at Washington,
where old currency is received for re-
demption, infectious disease has nev-
er occurred among the clerks who
handle it.
There must be some good reason
for such immunity and probably it is
in the fact that the germs of infec-
tious diseases find their most natural
habitation in the warmth of the hu-
man body and not in inanimate OBJ
iects which do not furnish conditions
1aVorlng their existence and activity.
1t is the custom to fumgate the
room that has been occupied by tu-
berculous patient. 1t is wise pre-
caution, yet its greatest actual bene-
fit is the moral satisfaction that ev-
cry possible precaution has been TAX
en- against the spread of the disease.
A careful exposure of the bedding and
other articles used by the patient to
the bright sun and fresh air would
be much more effective than the for
maldehyde bath or the sulphur candle.
The reason is that the tubercular
bacillus, as we'll as those of most in
fectious diseases, dies and loses its ca
pacity for aggressive harm within
short time, after it has been expelled
from the mouth, throat or lungs of
the patient. 1t cannot be lodged in
the bedding, on the walls or furniture

Winter pruning of citrus trees for
the control of Melanose and Wither-
tip can be made to the best advan-
tage in January, says H. E. Stevens,
plant pathologist to the University
of Florida ExepEiment Station. Trees
attacked by Withertip and those bear
ing dead twigs or branches should be
pruned in January if possible. At
that time of the year they are more
nearly in a dormant condition than
at any other and no i'll effects will
result from a severe pruning. Pru-
ming later in the season after growth
starts and the bloom appears may
prove injurious.
Dead wood in citrus trees harbors
the fungus responsible for Melanose
and Stem-end Rot. 1t is necessary
to cut and destroy this dead wood
before the new growth and fruits cp-
pear to avoid injury from these dis
eases.
Trees afflicted with Withertip
should receive the January pruning
if possible. All sickly and weak
wood should be removed. ard in the
case of severe attacks drastic pru-
ming may be necessary. If so, much
bearing wood may have to be sac
rificed. After a severe pruning a
liberal application of fertilizer is ad-
visable to help the tree make Wig
orous growth.
Pruning trees after they have put
out new growth or come into bloom
is not advisable for it will weaken the
tree and prove more harmful than
the attacks of the diseases. If the
fruit has not been removed from the
trees in January pruning will not be
and it should not be at
tempted until the summer season.
But trees that are free from fruit
should be pruned in January.
