It has been said that—"Typhoid fever like sin is a disgrace to any community," and it is true. The eating or drinking of human tilth is the method of introduction of typhoid infection into the body. Just why people persist in eating anti drinking their sewage and thus suffer from typhoid has never been explained. P certainly is not cleanly, decent, or in any degree pleasurable. Typhoid is a disease which communities and rural dwellers elect to give themselves in payment for a comfortable amount of sloth. It is the sincere hope of the State Board of Health that very soon the people of Indiana will tire of dying at the rate of almost one thousand annually and suffering at the rate of about ten thousand cases. This disgraceful record can be wiped out by all persons, all of the time, disposing of all their sewage, in 'i sanitary way. The average Indiana typhoid death rate for the last ten years is 35.1 in each 100,000 population. In Germany the rate is 4 4. In England 6.2 and in Holland 3. Cannot we do as well? The countries having a typhoid death rate above the state rate of 35.1. are: Bartholomew, 42.3; Clark, 50.6; Clinton, 38.4: Crawford, 62.7; Daviess, 40; Delaware, 38.7; Dubois, 41.5; Fayette, 38.1; Floyd 38; Gibson, 49.9; Hamilton, 38.1; Greene, 50; Hancock, 42 4: Harrison, 60; Jackson, 50.5; Lake. 48.5; Lawrence, 64.3; Marion, 42.6; Morgan, 48.4; Ohio 40.7; Orange. 50.3; Owen, 35.7; Parke, 36.3; Perr> 42.7; Pike, 64.9; Posey, 37; Ripley 39; Scott, 37.8; Shelby, 36.9; Spencer, 39.6; Sullivan 39.9; Switzerland. 35.9; Vigo, 46.3; Washington, 50.1 The county having the lowest typhoid death rate in the last ten years is Noble which has a rate of 12.1. Th-' county having the highest is Pike 64.6. When the evidence is all considered it appears that the people of Indiana eat altogether too much sewage. Let us so live that typhoid wfll not visit us.

1 Robert B. Stimson was leading the Progressive ticket with forty precincts reported. Other precincts will, it is practically certain, maintain the proportion, and Stimson is considered as good as nominated. The vote was: Stimson. 309: Frank M Buck,ngham 298; George Cordell, 251. Not more than half the city vo'e was cast. Some of the precincts experienced disorder when alleged floaters tried to vote. E. B. Cowan, Progressive city thairman, appealed to Judge Cox of the Superior Court to restrain inspectors from recognizing election officials appointed by the "rump" piegressive committee.

death. Before each period of unconsciousness she said she always heard sweet music. It may have been the natural physical forees clos'ee down upon the heart and mind, or ft may have been the truth of one of her favorite lines: "There Is sweet mnsie here that softer falls Than petals from blown roses on the grass— Music that gentlier on the spirit lies Than tired eyelids upon tired eyes; Music that brings sweet sleep from th< blissful skies." As a member of Locust Street Methodist ehureh she cherished in a quiet unassuming manner a respect for holy things and a faith in God Death had for her a smile and among her last conscious words were: "O. I'm so happy-” “So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption and thi ■ mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that Is written, “Death Is swallowed up in victory " (1 Cor. 1554.)

GIRLS IN KHAKI .SUITS CAUSE MUCH COM MEN I Mr. and Mrs. Lee Earl and Mr. and Mrs. O. Euqua of Toledo, Ohio, who have started to walk around the world, were In Greencastle for a short time Tuesday afternoon, arriving here at about 4 o'clock and leaving at 6 o'clock for Brazil. They expected to spend the night at com, farm house just west of town. Because of the fact that the two women wore Khaki suits, with trotis ers, instead of skirts, they caused much comment when they appeared on the streets. The women wore their hair hanging down their back, which was the most striking feature in the determining of their sex. The two couples left Toledo April o( and in 15 walking days have walked 330 miles. They came to Green castle from Danville. The pedestrians state that they are walking solely for their health and that there is no wager connected with their project. They make their expenses by selling postal photos of themselves. Mr. and Mrs. George Scott, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Gardner and Miss Nora Harvey of Russellville; Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Chapman, Miss Grace Farrar and Simpson Loekridge of Greencastle; Edward Dills, of Iowa and Parke Keeney, of Chicago, attended the funeral of Mrs. Morval W. Cummings Sunday—Rockville Tribune. In speaking of “dead” letters lying in the postoffiee at Brazil, the Brazil News says: “One young lady, signing herself as Bertha is writing to parties at Reelsvllle and wants to know how the little turkeys are getting along and adds that she will he down tc eat some turkey as soon as they are -large enough, but as Bertha failed to put a stamp on the rard she may never get any of the turkey unless this meets her eye and she eontributes a penny to Uncle Sam."

Soy Beans Are of Much Benefit to the Soil, Says J. U. Betners of Purdue University. "There is one crop of great vnlite that at the present time h; Iteme greatly neglected by farmers," says J. C. Beavers of Purdue university. "This crop belongs to the leguminous class of plants and deserves a plat ■ in our agriculture on account of Hit nitrogenous food it furnishes and b* cause it increases rather than diminishes the supply of nitrogen in the soil. On account of these advantages, the farmers of Indiana are justified in growing many more acres of soy beans than have been grown. "The greatest need of most Indian:, soils is more nitrogen and organic matter. Through careless methods ol, management and poor crop rota- J tions, man in three brief generations has almost exhausted what it took nature centuries to accumulate. Thest exhaustive practices can not long continue if our agriculture is to be permanent. The growing of such crops as soy beans will do piuch toward improving thin soils and main tainiug those soils which are still fertile. “It is not always easy for the farmer to understand just why it is that a crop like soy beans will produce a feed containing more nitrogenous substance per acre than corn or oat.-, and at the same time leave the soil in better condition than it was before. I was visiting one of on; demonstrators a short time ago, who grew two acres of soy beans last year A neighbor who was In the field with us said, 'Look here, I want you to tell me why it is that this wheat here where those soy beans grew last year is four inches higher than where the corn was grown.' It took but little explanation to answer his question. Last year when we planted the beans we used about ten pounds of inoculating soil, which was mixed with i the beans just before drilling. This j soil had been taken from a field where | soy beans were grown the year be- , fore that were thoroughly inoculated. It contained millions of bacteria • which inoculate soy beans. These little miscroscopic organisms had done the work. They had stocked the roots with wart-like growths from the size of a pea to a small marble. They had done their share in producing a crop that sold for over $40 an acre, and they had increased the supply of ritrogen in the soil that is making a better growth of wheat. “All this has been accomplished by bacteria. So all bacteria are not to be feared. This kind takes nitroger out of the air and gives it to the plant, and the plant furnishes it to man and the land. "There are a great many farmers in Indiana who would do well to cooperate with nature and get a good valuable crop for feeding or for sale and at the same time improve their so') for ensuine crops "By using early varieties soy hean' nay be planted up to the 15th of June with safety. They are usually grown in rows 30 to 36 inches apart, using one-haif bushel of seed per acre. The cultivation given is similar to that ordinarily given corn. Why not grow a few acres of this valuable crop this season?"
