A Titanic Disaster a Day Appalling and Unnecessary Waste of Human Life That Could Be Prevented By Professor IRVING FISHER of Yale University TV 7J" 0RE THAN SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND LIVES ARE LOST EVERY YEAR IN THE UNITED STATES FROM PRE I I VENTABLE DISEASE AND FROM ACCIDENTS. Let me put the figures in another form. A life insur ance president has calculated that PREVENTABLE DISEASE AND ACCIDENTS destroy every day American lives equal in num ber to the crews of two battleships. Think of it 1 A TITANIC DISASTER A DAY, and yet the public does not rise up and demand in a spirit of anger and determina tion that steps be taken at once to put an end to this appalling and UNNECESSARY WASTE OF HUMAN LIFE I Vital statistics have been well called the bookkeeping of health; and, believe me, the bookkeeping of health is JUST AS NECES SARY TO GET HEALTH RESULTS AS THE BOOKKEEPING OF BUSINESS ia to get business results, and this is proved beyond doubt by the fact that those countries which have kept their health books tho longest have been most successful in prolonging the average of human life within- their borders.

Dood River, Oregon fruit Co. to talh about A POTATO SPECIALIST'S WORK. rrobablj no one man baa done or la doing so much for the potato Industry of the country as Professor C. I Fitch, who Is the potato specialist of the Colorado Agricultural college. He made an er.baustire study Into the orlgio of American varieties of pota toes as a foundation study which would help blm In the work he bad in hand of Improving Colorado varieties, tils findings, which of necessity are in large measure of a general character, ire helpful, not only to potato grow ers In Colorado, but In other sections of the country as well. Among a num ber of Interesting facts which Profes sor Fitch has demonstrated perhaps the most Important is that a fungous growth called rlzoc Is responsible chiefly for the tendency in potatoes to "run out." The spores of this pest live on the mature potato in Its place of storage during the winter and are visible as brown specks or spots on the surface, but do not usually injure the Interior texture or quality of the tuber These germs or spores are ! planted with the pieces of seed In the spring and shortly spread by One, thread nnd netlike growth to the new 1 and tender shoots that grow from the seed piece. As a result these are either killed outright or greatly or slightly weakened, and on those stalks that do live through the season only runty tubers are produced of a low vitality. Mr. Fitch asserts that most alfalfa land, as well as land on which pota toes hare been grown for a number of years Is likely to be more or less Infested with this rlzoc; hence, treat ing the seed with the formalin solution does little good. In his opinion, the! selection of clean seed and having the soil well drained and giving the grow-! Ing crop deep and thorough cultiva tion are the best methods of reducing , dnmage from rlzoc to a minimum. 1 The addition of fresh manure is not advisable on land which Is to be used for growing potatoes. Soli which con tains a good deal of sand Is freest from rlzoc. and It Is for this reason that It is so well suited to growing them. Relative to the selection of po-) tafoes for seed. Professor Fitch recom mends those that are comparatively short and flnt for the variety, not j pointed or teated. shallow eyed and without prominent yokes or yoke points; for most varieties recessed a little at the ftem. and if of a red or pink variety. Ilxht In color for the variety In the selection of the seed they should te medium sized and tak en from a lot that Is of uniform size and shape. THE WAY OF BAD EGGS.
