Editor Star: What the scientist Joes for the. farmer is shown in some work of the agricultural de department partment department in the fruit growing dist ricts of California. Aside from fur furnishing nishing furnishing remedies for diseases of the trees they have shown the fruit growers a new line of profit. From the time that lemons and oranges were first grown there, and as in Florida now, the culls were left on the trees until they droppeJ off. They were then gathered by the ton and thro'wn in a dump, an! &en they fully rotted were used for manure. The scientists first proved that that way of disposing of them was one of the chief causes of the spread of scale and numerous other pests. The ?rower3 were informed that these culls were very valuable as raw ma material terial material for the proluction of acii, and they began to ship them east to large manufacturing concern engaged in that business. Orange and lemon' growers say now that their returns from the culls are nearly equal to the price they receivei for their "second best" friut, and that the culls alone would almost pay for the upkeep of the grove, leaving all other fruit as a net profit. The scientists then pointed out that factories could be erected at a small outlay of capital for manufac manufacturing turing manufacturing acids in California instead of shipping the culls all the way to the Atlantc ocean. A movement was set on foot to build factories, when the railroads heard of it and they im immediately mediately immediately made arrangements to greatly lower the rate on culls. The result of it all is that the fruit grow growers ers growers will make more money, and in the end the people will get oranges, lemons and candied fruits in which these acids are used cheaper.' Without the aid of the "farm demonstrator" who had a kncw kncw-ledege ledege kncw-ledege of chemistry and biology this thing could never have 'been done. The California fruit farmer "did not think that he knew it all, and so he welcomed the "farm demonstrator." Very sincerely, David H. Kirkland.

And we have 1een free from this horror for ten Tears; so free that we have begun to forget it ever existed. There is another enemy that not only the South 'but the entire coun country try country and in fact the world needs to get rid of. Unlike yellow fever, it comes not as an army with flaming banners, hut as a thief in the night. Yellow fever strikes men and women down as with the sword, but this other enemy malaria -saps their vitality and pulls them down day by day. So accustomed are we to it that most of us accept it as a matter of course. Yet, where yellow fever has slain its thousands, malaria has .slain its tens of thousands; and while the former disease is banished to the swamps and pestholes of the earth, malaria, like the poor, and helping to make many of us poor, we have always with us. It is the opinion of many in the medical profession that malaria and .yellow fever are akin, or at least al allied. lied. allied. Yellow fever flourishes 'best in malarial localities, and reaps its thickest harvest among people al already ready already vitiated with malaria. Mem Memphis phis Memphis and other southern cities knew nothing of sanitation in 1878, and all the precaution their people took against mosquitoes was to retire be beneath neath beneath the mosquito canopies at night. In the daytime they accepted mos mosquito quito mosquito ibites as a matter of course. As aforesaid, tho mosquito-bite theory as a cause for yellow fever be began gan began to work out shortly after the Spanish-American war from observa tion made by American surgeons during that war. It resulted in the cleaning up of Cuban and West In India dia India cities generally, as well as our own gulf coast ports, and has been carried to the greatest perfection on the isthmus of Panama, where one of the most unhealthy localities in the world has been turned to one with a phenomenally low death rate. The medical profession feels that It has mastered yellow fever. It hopes soon to control malaria. But .notwithstanding the fact that malar ia effects more people than almost weariness of body and dullness of ! mind. It is deadly itself sometimes and it furnishes the foothold for other anl more deadly diseases. It makes life more or less a burden for all amicted with it; and many a poor human blamed for laziness has in instead stead instead been afflicted with a lassitude that he was no more responsible for than the rest of the community. A story illustrating the kinship be between tween between yellow fever and malaria has been told the Star by an ex-army surgeon, who served in the Santiago campaign in the summer of '9S. He arrived at Siboney from Xew York shortly after General Shafter's army landed and was at once sent to the front. He told a somewhat amusing but pathetic story of the lack of conven convenience ience convenience and system that prevailed In the American army. There was the greatest plenty of some things that were not needed. Many things sore sorely ly sorely needed were not to be obtained for love or money. Supplies were piled up by the boat-load in some places, while a few miles away the sick and wounded suffered and died for lack of bare necessities. After the capture of Santiago, the narrator found himself and a few ether surgeons in charge of a field hospital situated on an island in San Santiago tiago Santiago bay. The island was a small one and all supplies, even wood for the cooking fires,-had to be brought in row boats from the mainland. There were plenty of supplies, nut very few of the medicines and foods needed for the sick and convalescent were obtainable either they were ;and made a list of every thing they I could, think of needed to save life and restore health medicines, in in-j j in-j struments, foods, disinfectants, cloth cloth-! ! cloth-! ing, bedding and put the message Ion the wire that ran under the waves, and not many hours later a powerful ocean-going tug. laden with Miss Gould's bountiful help for her countrymen, steamed past the Statue j of Liberty and plowed southward thru the ocean toward the misery- 5 j stricken island in Santiago bay.

Several of the doctors and finally the nurse died and were buried on the island. The nurse was a lady from New Or Orleans, leans, Orleans, and fell a victim as much to the lack of proper food and medi cine as over work and disease. Some of the doctors as well as many of the patients had to ;be wrapped in their blankets and buried. There were plenty of coffins in the city, hut sometimes it was impossible to ob obtain tain obtain them when needed. It was hard to 'tell tne uifference, so our informant said, between ma malaria laria malaria and yellow fever. Both were much alike. If one became sick, the only thing to do was to give him medicine if he was better next day, it was probably malaria; if he was worse, it was probably yellow fever. It was a good deal like the test be between tween between toadstools and mushroom eat the fungus; if you lived it was a mushroom; if you died, it was a toadstool. So the dreadful days wore on, and the red-tape tied inefficiency of our own service cut bigger gaps in the lines of our noble little army than all the Spanish bullets. The little group of surgeons on the island were in despair. One day it occurred to one of them to write a letter to Miss Helen Gould, one of the noblest of American wom women, en, women, whose generosity during the war brought relief to many a suffering soldier, and kept the shadow of death from being cast over many a household. He described the situa situation tion situation tersely, mailed the letter and waited almost without hope, for it seemed to him that Miss Gould had already had so many call3 made upen her, it was likely she would dis disregard regard disregard this one. In the course of three or four days the letter reached Xew York and Miss Gould, and in less than as manv hours flashed back a cable Senator Bryan has been blamed by many for not guarding, in his law, against negroes voting in the demo democratic cratic democratic primaries. The truth is thaj the senator did not neglect this point, but provided for it, and it is the fault of the state executive com committee mittee committee that his provision was not put into effect. In a- letter to the Star, Mr. Bryan says: Washington, Feb. 14.

Inasmuch as the state executive committee failed to act before the registration books were opened, I do not believe it would now have the power iby resolution to make it the duty of the supervisor to refuse to register anybody who comes within the requirements of the law. However, there are other provis ions of the law which it seems to me are ample to protect the democratic party from the negro vote. Section 23 provides for challenges at the polls.

Panamanians. It was an m exceedingly well dressed audience, for although the pit was plentifully sprinkled with men in white, the two lower galleries were in solid full dress. In the center box of the first tier, ornately hung with flags and a coat of arms, Anthony beheld a giant black man of majestic appear appearance, ance, appearance, flanked by a half dozen aids in uniform. "That is President Oalleo." Edith told him. As the curtain fell on the first act Kirk rose with the others and, accom accompanied panied accompanied by Mrs. Cortlandt, made his way down the long passageway and out into a brightly lighted, highly dec decorated orated decorated foyer, filling now with voluble people. It was a splendid room, but he had no eyes for it. His gaze was fixed upfn the, welcome open air prom promenade enade promenade outside, and his fingers fumbled with his cigarette case. "Oh, wait, please," he heard Edith say. "I want you to meet some one." There, not a yard away, was the girl of his dreams demurely bowing to Edith Cortlandt, her hand upon the arm of a swarthy man, whom Kirk knew at once as her father. He felt the' blood rush blindingly to his head, felt it drumming at his ears, knew that he must be staring like a man be bereft reft bereft Mrs. Cortlandt was speaking, and he caught the name "Garavel" like a bugle call. She was the same dainty, desirous maid he had met in the forest, but now splendidly radiant and perfect beyond his imagining. She Avas no longer the simple wood sprite, but a tiny princess in filmy white molded by some master craftsman. An on that earlier meet meeting, ing, meeting, she was thrilling with some subtle mirth which flickered on her lips or danced in the depths of her great, dark eyes. How he ever got through that wild introductory moment without making a show of himself Anthony never knew. The general confusion perhaps herped to hide his emotion, for around them eddied a constant human tide, through Avhich at last came Mr. Cort Cortlandt landt Cortlandt and the other members of his party. Then by some glorious miracle Kirk found himself moving toward the open air at her side, with Mrs. Cort Cortlandt landt Cortlandt and the banker in advance of them. "Oh, Chiqufta," he said softly, "I thought I'd never find you. I've hunted everywhere." At the tremendous intensity of his tone she flashed him a startled glance. "Chiquita is not my name," she said, reprovingly. "Yes, it is; it must be. I can't think of you by any other. Hasn't it been whispering at my earsever since you said it? It has nearl driven me mad. Why didn't you come back as you promised?" v "It was Stephanie she is such a ferocious person! I was brought to the city that day but no, senor. I did not promise. I said only 'per 'perhaps. haps.

"Very well dt you know that you canuot. Have you not learned our customs? Do not be foolish, or I shall be forced to walk with my father." "Don't do that. Can t you see we must make hate while tl'e curtain is down?" "1 do not see. I am strolling iu search tf the cool air."

In his home he is entirely a Spaniard, and if he learned how we met. for instance" even under the electric light he saw her flush "be would create a terrible scene." "Trust me! I sha'n't tell him."

"But what has all this to do with my coming to see you?" "It -is .difficult to explain, since you will not understand. When a young man is accepted into a Spanish house, many things are taken for granted. Besides that, we do not know each oth other, er, other, you and I. Also, if you should come to see me it would cause gossip, misunderstanding among my friends." "I'll declare myself in advance." he promised warmly. "Nj. no. no! We Spanish-Americans do aot care for strangers. We have our own people and we are satisfied It is much better that old people who are of more experience should discuss these questions." "But don't you want to have a voice in .your own affairs?" he eagerly urged She answered frankly: "I do rebel sometimes. I prwtest. but it is only the American blood in me." "If you'd learn to know me a little bit. maybe you'd enjoy having me around the house." "But I cannot know you. any more than you can know me." she cried, with a little gesture of despair at his dullness. "Don't you see before we could get acquainted nicely people would be talking."
