Fodnral nssiatnuce rnvnt's of this most mysterious find dreaded malady in the list of child diseases. Poliomyelitis is the technical name for infant paraly sis, which, though commonest among babies, also affects adults. It is one of the diseases that have so far defied the efforts of science to control, though considerable prog ress has been made in its treatment. It was known to the ancients, and not much more is known about it today. The disease is spread from a discharge from the mem branes of the nose, containing the virus, which is carried by flies and dust. It affects the grav matter at the base of the brain, and even if the child recover, he is usually paralyzed for life. All cases so far developed in other cities can be traced back to New York. A score of cities now number victims, and so only strict quarantine can prevent its sweeping the country. In .1907 infantile paralysis became epidemic in New. York and spread to Massachusetts, where it lasted three years. The present epidemic is reported by health offi cials to have a high degree ol virulence as well as ol. 111 fectivity. .Experiments of injecting solutions of sweepings from rooms where there have been cases of infantile paralysis into healthy monkeys proves that dust carries the germs. Experiments upon monkeys are to bo continued on an elaborate scale in the search for the cause and cure of the malady. The only known method of repressing tho disease is to isolate each case as it develops. A strict quarantine litis been established iu New York City. Not even relatives are permitted to visit the afflicted. Ten thousand policemen are enforcing the quarantine. An army of inspectors, physicians and nurses are assisting iu its control Chil dren have been barred from movie theaters and public places in tnc el ion, to restrain the epidemic. As a cure, serum is injected, electricity applied and a system of massage given. If the Mail Tribune has done Mr. Hill, president of the Commercial club, an injustice, it gladly apologizes. Mr. Hill states that, while interested in a comparatively small way in mines in the Blue Ledge district, he is hot inter ested in a townsite, and that his investment was made before the agitation for a railroad was begun. The Mail Tribune's statement was made in gootl faith upon what it presumed reliable information. ME MHM'OI.K, Vu., .lulv l-'. It WJ reported here Unit the tun TIumhuh A.

When I settled in this valley thirl.v-nine years Hpt blight wmm unknown, a no wuh the HUiudge nd, I have an orchard in the foothill which ban been bearing for the last thirty-five xearn and never hud one eae of blight up to dute.
