purity. The Pirz fertilizer, or his super-phosphate of lime, is

SOCIAL SCIENCE CONGRESS. 
The first of a series of horticultural shows will be held in the 
great hall about the middle of November. At a recent 
meeting Mr. Bosisto, chairman of the Vegetable Products 
Committee, was requested to undertake the details. 
At a meeting of the agricultural section of the Social 
Science Congress papers on the following subjects were laid 
on the table : — “ The Cultivation of the Olive in Victoria,” by 
C. May, Sunbury ; “The Clearing of Land,” by C. H. Lyon, 
Ballan ; “ Manufacture of Beetroot Sugar,” by W. Murray 
Ross ; “ Scientific Agricultural Education,” by D. B. Smith, 
Buln Buln ; “ Sylvian Streets,” by W. R. Guilfoyle ; “ Insect 
Pests on Fruit-bearing Trees,” by C. May ; “ Rust in Wheat” 
and “An Economical Scheme of Experimental Farming,” by 
R. W. E. Maclvor. 
The health section of the Social Science Congress com- 
menced its sitting on 18th October, when Dr. M‘Crae delivered 
his presidential address ; and the following papers were read : 
— By Mr. H. K. Rusden, on “ The Prevention of Lunacy by 
Dr. M'Carthy, on “ The Use and Abuse of Stimulants as 
Articles of Diet.” An interesting discussion followed upon 
the two subjects of lunacy and drunkenness. In the evening 
Dr. Louis Henry read a paper on “The Comparative 
Immunity from Disease among the Jews,” and Dr. Jamieson 
another on “ Infant Mortality.” He pointed out that the 
Melbourne rate was disproportionately high, being 168 per 
1000, and greater than that of London. He attributed this 
to the result of artificial feeding. 
On the 20th October Mr. A. Sutherland, M.A., read a paper 
on “ Health Insurance.” 
On the 21st October Mr. Bosisto, M.L.A., read a valuable 
paper on “ The Forests and Timber Growth of Victoria in 
Relation to Health, Conservation, and Culture.” He pointed 
out the disastrous effects likely to result from a diminution of 
our forests, and suggested the appointment of a forest trust, 
independent of Government control. An interesting discus- 
sion followed, in which the importance of the subject was 
fully recognised. Dr. Day, of Geelong, read a paper on “ The 
Application of Spontaneously Generated Peroxide of Hydrogen 
to Purifying and Disinfecting Purposes.” In the evening Mr. 
H. K. Rusden contributed a paper on “ Contagious Diseases,” 
in which he urged the rigid enforcement of quarantine 
in the case of every contagious disease. Dr. Paterson, of 
Adelaide, read a paper on “ Quarantine.” 
The health section of the Social Science Congress concluded
