And how fortunate you were to have enough fuel on hand to keep you comfort able. Few persons really appre ciate the seriousness of the coal situation, and no im provement is looked for in the near future. A continued cold soell is likely to dispose of the little coal in reserve a snp plv that is far less than the usual reserve in the yards at this period of winter. H. M. KELLEY &CO.

I MONDAY EVENING, • TREE NURSERIES TO BE SUPERVISED Stringent Bill Will Be Present ed to the Legislature by State Authorities Under provisions of a bill prepared In the State Department of Agricul ture to establish a system of tree in spection in Pennsylvania and to be in troduced in the Legislature this week the Secretary of Agriculture would he authorized to name deputy Inspectors and would have powers of quarantine, entry and search to eradicate tree diseases. The bill is understood to be in line with that suggested for uni formity with other States and was pre pared by Zoologist J. G. Sanders. The inspection is to be in charge of an inspector to be named with ap proval of the agricultural commission, and the Secretary of Agriculture is au thorized to "appoint and dismiss, on recommendation of the inspector, de puty inspectors, who shall strictly en force the provisions." The system is designed to protect the farmers and others of the Suite from pests and es tablishes a system of licenses for deal ers. agents and solicitors, provides for inspection of all tree stock and rigid regulation for that imported from other States or countries. Deputies are to have "free access" to anything from a field, orchard, car, ship to a cellar and it is to be unlawful to "deny such access." Another clause says "the secretary of agriculture through the inspector or deputies shall have the authority to inspect any orchard, fruit or garden plantation, park, ceme tery, private premises, public place or any place" which might become in fested with dangerous or harmful in sects or plant diseases. Thin authority to inspect nursery stock can be exer cised "at any time or place." The most sweeping provision is that giving the secretary the right to for bid movement of "nursery stock or any class of stone or quarry products or any other artifle of any character whatsoever capable of carrying any injurious or harmful insect or plant disease." , It is made unlawful for any one to knowingly have any plant or tree in fested on premises or to sell infected stuff and inspectors may order re moval of infected trees or plants in ten days and If it Is not done can do the work and send the owner a bill. Foreign stock cannot be opened until a State inspector sees it, while agents are held down to certified stock, right to revoke certificates being conferred. Tho Inspector is also to have right to Inspect order form 3, contracts and agreements of dealers with customers and no shipment can be made without tags attached. Provision is made for appeals to the Secretary of Agriculture. , , DON'T SUFFER WITH NEURALGIA, RHEUMA TISM, LUMBAGO, PAINS IN CHEST, HEADACHE OR SORE THROAT Gingerole The Great Ointment "With The Ginger" Will Give You Instant Relief It's inßrvelous the way this great ointment banishes aches and pains from any part of the body. it is in a class by itself and its tre mendous sale Is due to its actual merit.

HXRRXSBURG OP& TEI^GRAPH KEEP THE STREAM CLEAR SAYS DIXON Commissioner of Heallh Makes an Appeal to the People of the Commonwealth Commissioner of Health Samuel G. Dixon in an appeal to the people of the State issued to-day, calls upon them to co-operate with the State in keeping the streams clear of pollution of all kinds. The streams, thanks to tlie manner in wr.ieh the people have backed up his efforts in many parts' of the Stale, are on a fair way to be freed from municipal drainage, but there is still much work to be done. Dr. Dixon says-; "From the settlement of Pennsylva nia by the Spanish, the babbling brooks, up to and including the broad water highways of nations, have been used for the disposal of sewage and this without restraint, until a few years ago when the work began under the law of 1905 to change this con dition which has resulted in reducing typhoid fever 74 per cent, as well as lessening the suffering and sorrow of thousands of human beings. "The time consumed in cleansing the streams is not for the want of suffi cient legislation; that is ample. The progress has been Impeded hy the fact that homes and industries have grown since our tlrst civilization very much as Topsy did, without any thought of the to-morrow. Having this enormity of insanitary conditions to meet, with so many lives depending upon the pro ducts of the offending producers, much financing and time must be used, to eliminate the death dealing condition. "The sewage from individual sources has largely been removed from our streams and our industries have removed their wastes gradually and continually. This, however, has been a work that of necessity moves slowly, for upon the great industrial plants our people depend for some of the necessities of living and hundreds of thousands of our people made their bread and butter for their families by working in the great manufactur ing plants of the Commonwealth. It would not have done to arbitrarily have ordered all these industrial wastes out as we had a high appre ciation of the distress to our people by the .closing down of our factories and therefore waited in many ways for Mother Invention to discover ways and means of disposing of industrial wastes without interfering with the great hubs of industries. "Our people during the last decade ing that pure water is as essential for have been educated to an underHtand good health as proper food. This, however, was recognized in the time of Nero; that great and arbitrary Km peror was lined for polluting the Nile. "As the best results in civilization are obtained by co-operation and not by the harsh enforement of police laws, the appeal is made by the De partment of Health to every citizen of Pennsylvania to guard from pollu tion the water that we must use for domestic purposes. To restore our streams to their-virgin conditions will, of course, be somewhat expensive, yet money cannot be better spent, as the health of both man and beast de pends upon improving our domestic water supplies—in fact it is a great factor in increasing the power of our Nation, because this depends upon the health of our people." Lamps For Hens So They Work Longer Nez Perces, Idaho, Feb. 19. —Gaso- line lamps arc used by Mrs. W. H. Haringer to lengtheiv-tlie working day of her hens. "Mrs. Baringer lights the lamps at six o'clock in the morning in the winter months and keeps them lighted until 8.30 p. m. In this way, she says, she increases the egg out put of her flocks. Mrs. Baringer says a hen can't see to scratch her dinner out of the litter before 8 a. m., nor after 3.30 p. m„ which leaves Biddy only seven and a half hours for work. By adding to the hen's working hours, Mrs, Baringer declares the efficiency of the egg mak ing machine is increased. Varied Menu For Cows Brings Milk, Says Expert Bozeman, Mont., Feb. 19.—"T0 have a dairy cow produce her maximum flow of milk she must have the prop er kinds, amount and variety of food." Professor G. I-. Martin told the dairy men who were in attendance at the State college Farmer's week. When she is after maximum of production she has sufficient food to maintain her body and to produce all the milk of which she is capable. If more food is supplied it goes into surplus flesh and fat. If less food Is supplied, milk production falls off, for the amount taken for bodily sustenance cannot be reduced. "A carefully balanced and frequent ly varied ration is therefore necesary with abundance of roughage to fill up the large stomach space. Dairymen who would feed for profit must con sider the value of the feed and it is necessary sometimes to substitue a cheaper and less efficient food, even at some loss of the dally flow of milk, rather than to pay the high prices sometimes necessary for the most de sirable types of rich feed. Clean straw stacks are good roughage for dairy I cattle." This Germ Shoots Right Through Skin Baltimore, Md., Feb. 19. —The tu bercle bacillus familiarly known as " T. 8.," goes directly through the skin or mucous membrane, according to experiments that have just been made at Johns Hopkins hospital, by the physicians who are making a deep study of the dinea.se. "T. B„" may travel through the cir culation system like any other germ, but there is an element of surprise In the announcement made at Hopkins that the bacillus may go through skin and tissue without leaving any lesion or anything to Indicate its passage. Infections in the throat may tlnd their way into the flesh of the neck and cause little damage, or they may set up consumption in some part and present a menaco to the health of the patient. Danger of getting disease of this kind from flying dust on a bright sun ny street is slight, indeed, because the exposure to sunlight means death to most of the germs. Floor coverings, especially where the sun seldom strikes may .harbor the germs for long periods. \ STHIKING A It ARC At X here, Hiram," said Si.
