PAGE 8 TUBERCULOSIS BRADICATED BY ANIMAL BUREAU Federal Department Co-operat- ing With North Dakota Farmers to End Disease The amount of tuberculosis found among beef and dairy cattle in North Dakota ‘has been surprisingly small, according to H. H. Cohenour, inspec- tor in charge of the Bismarck ‘burean of animal husbandry, a division of the federal department of agriculture. “During May 61 herds, comprising 1175 cattle, were tested,” said Mr. Cohenour today, “and out of this total only 42 were reactions, showing traces of tuberculosis. This is a grat- ifyingly small amount Sut by constam inspections and tests, we hope to free all of the cattle in this state from this disease. Isolation Only Preventive. “The only way in which farmers can safely prevent the spread of this disease is by isolation. Not only through emissions from the mouth is the disease spread among farm ani- mals, ‘but the germs are transmitted through the skin, milk and otherwise. For this reason, we instruct farmers to segregate their cattle, keeping those infected away from the healthy ones. “The need for inspecting and test- ing cattle for the presence of tuber- culosis is so necessary and must be continued incessantly that we are constantly enlarging this depart- Tobacco Habit Dangerous says Doctor Connor, formely of Johns Hopkins hospital.

Such farmers are listed and their herds duly credited.

This is Private Butler's first visit since last July. ‘ After entering the service at Bis- marck last year Butler was assigned to the 34th infantry and placed in Co. C. A short period of training in the United States along the Mexican bor- der preceded his departure for France. Two other well known young men of this section who were Butler’s companions in the thirty-fourth were Orvil Chaney and Harm Triben, both of Linton. Butler was through some of the thickest fighting in the Argonne for- est death trap where the Americans accomplished what the French and English had found impossible for the three previous. years. He went over the top there and advanced through some of the heaviest barrages and rifle fire the Germans put over on any front. , The former Bismarck man is now stationed at Camp Funston, Kansas, and intimated today that when his present enlistment expires he would in all probability re-enlist. “But no more infantry for mine,” said Butler. “I have carried that pack until it felt as heavy #s a lumderjack’s. shoe on a particularly tender corn.” Butler will leave Bismarck for camp Sunday. HOGS HARVESTING SHORT WHEAT AT LIBERAL PROFIT Belfield Man Will Clear $5,000 in Spite of Lack of Grain Yields SECURED you, but you found you North Dakota Although his crops are a complete failure so far as ‘avility.to harvest them ‘by ordinary means is concern- ed, G. M. Christianson of Belfield ex- pects to clear $5,000 this year by util- izing his hundred-odd porkers as har- vesters. “The wheat heads are well filled out, and there is a comparatively heavy yield of grain,” said Mr. Chris- tianson today, “but the straw is sO short that no known means of har- vesting the crop has worked. I solv- ed the difficulty this morning by turn- ing over a hundred head of young hogs into my wheat fields, They'll get every grain of the wheat, and it will ‘bring more marketed in the form of pork that it would in, its original shape.” In addition to hogs, ‘Mr. Christian- son has a nice herd of Herefords and countless hundreds of turkeys, geese, ducks and chickens. Mrs. Christian- son looks after the poultry end of the ‘business, which has ibecome a source of big profits: The Belfield man is here en route to Medina to look into Prospects for making hay there. There is practically no feed this year in the vicinity of Belfield. A maforitv of farmers and ranch men have enough for their immediate needs, but pro- vision must.be made for the winter. Mr. Christianson has been apopinted a committee of one to come east and spy out tihe Jand. The only hay which has ‘been re- ported west of the river is in the vi- cinity of Timmer, and it is being held at $28 to $30 the ton, f. 0. >. cars. This puts it out of the question for use in feeding range cattle. There is promise of abundant hay near Me- dina, and ifthi s promise, is fulfilled, the Belfield ranchers will put a large crew of men at work there cutting and baling. G. M. Christianson, before he took up farming, was for a number of years construction superintendent for N. A. Frieburg of Bismarck, who at that time was engaged in building a string of large elevators and mills west of the river. The Belfield man super- vised the construction of the big Rus- sell-Miller mill at Dickinson. If your income were to shrink tomorrow, you would naturally spend less in the future.

His reception was Potitical Pot Bubbles. “The political’ situation at Wash- ington is commencing to boil and J believe that the: next presidencial campaign ..will’ be very hot. Nothing definite is known, about the presi- dent’s plans for this coming, election, some elieving that he ‘will run again, while others hold the opposite view. “I am positive, from what I heard while in Washington, that the presi- dént will appeal to the country per- sonally if he encounters any serious obstacles among republican senators in the ratification of the peace treaty.

From the latter place it will ‘be sent to Bismarck and it is planned to have the war materials here dur- ing the week of August 19 to 23.

In fact the number of persons who come to see this exhibit . is almost unbelievable, farmers from miles around coming to the cities where it is displayed ex- Pressly for that purpose. “Included in the exhibit is.a French 75 gun, the light field gun which put down practically all of the barrage work in Europe for the American army and which was excepted as a substitute for the American 3-inch rads. Very pistols .which «shoots | a flare for illuminating purposes and signaling, flares and rockets which were used for signaling between the advance trenches the airplanes and balloons and the artillery. Sufficient ammunition accompanies the exhibition to permit of realistic demonstration of exactly what is meant by trench warfare, L believe, even on this small scale, the people of Bismarck and vicinity will get an excellent idea of what it meant when their sons and sweethearts went over the top. Rockets and flares will ibe used also exactly as they were in France.” FORMER BISMARCK MAN DIES AT HIS PRETTY ROCK HOME W. E.
