Tuberculosis Decreasing.

~ Indiana ranks second among the states of the middle western group as regards freedom from tuberculosis. "~ But there is still much to do beforge the state may be proud of its work against the disease. Michigan has the lowest death rate from tuberculosis of the middle western states, according to the latest figures available, those for the year 1919. In that year the ranking was: oowee Michigan, 86 deaths per 100,000 of ‘population : Indiana, 110.29 deaths B : Illinois, 115 deaths - g ' Ohio, 115 deaths o Kentucky 165 deaths. 3y Thanks to the work of the health authorities the vigilance of the doctors and the educational program of the tuberculosis association, the death rate in Indiana is steadily decreasing. It was lower last year than in 1919, and in fact has shown a continuous improvement all things considered since 11915. : S

WORK IS HARD ON ARTISTS

Binging Into the Recordgng-Horn Con- * ceded to Be a Nerve-Racking , . Experience, ;.

Muslc is a 7lot trickier to can than peaches or pears, remarks Farm and Fireside. S When you play one of your phonograph records you have no idea how hard it may have been to get that melody “preserved.” You are listening to the result of a lot of mighty hard work, which may have included conriderable storming by the director and tears on the part of the artist. Some artists simply cannot sing for the records at all, while others are nervous wrecks for days after a session of recording. s : ; To sing into & recording horn may look easy—just as it may look easy for a baseball player t 6 hit a ball over the fence for a home run—but in reality it is one of the most difficult, nerve-racking things anyone can attempt, -~ On the concert stage a singer with a good voice may make little mistakes without the audience noticing them. If he has an attractive presence and an engaging manner, he may even sing a bit off key and yet make & hitf But the wax master record is a relentless mirror, with no mercy for the Imperfections that the average artist—like other human belngs—is guilty of. . The slightest waver or strain in the volce, the slightest deviation from: the true . pitch, comes out badly: And the very fear of making these mistakes and flaws “hoodoo” most singers into making them. : The result is that many a popular stage artist has met defeat in the laboratory. : ;

WAR ON SCREW-WORM FLIES

Traps Have Proved Effective Methods - of Getting Rid of Human and Animal Pests. it

The use of flytraps for catching screw-worm flies 1S a new idea as a means of combating those abominable insects, and has already proved decidedly effective. They. are a firstclass Pest in souie parts of this country, and especlally in southwest Texas, QOattle and other livestock suffer much from their attacks, their habit belng to lay eggs in any sort of wound. The larvae hatched from the eggs bore into the tissues, feeding upon them and doing most destructive mischief. When ready to transform inte pupae, they come out, drop to the ground and bury themselves to awalit metamorphosis into flies. The screwworm flies are typical meat flies, and the carcass of any dead animal quickly becomes a hatchery for them. Hence, in the region afflicted by them, it i 8 very important that all carcasses shall be promptly destroyed, preferably by burning. Occasionally it happens that human beings are attacked. A fly crawls up the nostrils of a sleeping rson and lays its eggs. The larvfiiatched from them invade the sinuses, and death is likely to result. =Milwaukee Sentinel,

Squirrels and Robins Fight.

A flerce lawn battle between forces of squirrels ‘and robins has been observed in Mount Vernon, N. Y. The squirrels and robins on Eleventh avenue, Mount Vernon, have declared war upon each other, and each day the battles are wageing bigger and fiercer. Residents on Eleventh avenue have for some time thrown peanuts on their lawns for the squirrels and bread crusts for the birds of the nelghborhood. Three weeks ago a few robins after eating the bread helped themselves to peanuts, and, the squirrels ran away. The first day a few squirrels attacked the robins and there was a short but furious fight in which the squirrels saved their suppers. The second day about twenty - robins swooped down and the squirrels were routed. The third day the squirrels returned reinforced by an equal number and there was a battle royal for a quarter of an hour. It was a drawn battle, both sides leaving most of their peanuts and crusts on the field.

e " Light on the Depths. It 1s said that at: a depth of enly 200 fathoms the light of the unclouded sun penetrating the ocean is reduced to equality with the starlight of a clear night on the surface. At more profound depths the sunlight is entirely extiﬁgulshed. Yet there are both light and color in the abysses, and at the bottom of the sea. The ‘light is of phosphorescent .erigin, and it may be remarked that in general the fixed marine forms of life are not be- ! hind their free swimming allies in _light-emitting powers. “There are fil- - luminations produced by the movements of abyssal fishes through the forests of phosphorescent sea-pens, fan corals, red corals, and other Alcyonaria. The colors of deep-sea animals are both brilliant and varied. ,

Japan's Fight on Hydrophobia. The Japanese are inoculating dogs _instead of people to prevent rables, -which is mow “widespread” in that country, says the New York Evening Post. The bacteriologist Umeno and his ‘coworkers at the Kitasato Institute for infectious diseases have perfected a method of prophylactic inoculation that can be given the dogs in one eor two shots. ‘ln all, 81,000 dogs have been treated and in not a single instance has any one of them been found suffering from rables. Instead of the usual methods of killing -mad and stray dogs, the Japanese ‘medical experts are advocating inocu lation of all the dogs of Japan. o bt S : e Tax CoHections, - = - - Will collect taxes for Ligonier City and Perry township at Citizens Bank, Sept 26 and 27, at Mier Bank September 28 and 29, at Farmers ‘& Merchants Trust Co.
