YELLOW FEVER THING OF PAST IN GUAYAQUIL “Chalacos” and “Huaijas,” Lit- tle Fishes, Did The Work Effectively Bloomington, Ind., Feb fever, the scourge of South America for centuries, has been eradicated from Guayaquil on the coast of Ecua- dor, accordingto an announcement received here by Dr. Carl H. Eigen. mann, head of the department of zo- ology of Indiana University and an authority in South American fishes, from the Sanitary Commission of Ecuador. The announcement was ac- companied by specimens of little fish- es discovered for the prevention of the se, with a request that they be classified and that information be given from data collected in various Indiana University expeditions to South America as to whgre these fishes are to be found. The fishes have been identified and detailed in- formation has been forwarded which will enable other South American countries to locate the fishes and use them in dealing death to the yellow fever mosquito. Yellow fever is carried from one person to another by a mosquito which lives in the barrels in which the na- tives of South America keep their drinking water. Each family (has kept its own supply of yellow fever car- riers, so to speak, and many times ports of the west coast have been closed against ships on account of; outbreaks of yellow fever. Recently the Sanitary Commission of Ecuador began experiments with various fish- es which would eat the mosquitos in the barrels. Some fishes ate the “wigglers” which develop into mos- quitos, and it was found that two fishes, called “Chalacos” and “huai- jas” by the natives, did the work ef- fectively. Chalacos Plentttul The ‘chalacos” is found every- where along the tropical part of the Pacific coast and will be available for mosquito control along with the en- tire danger zone from Peru to Califor- nia, Others of the same species is found in similar situations over the entire danger zone in the West Indies - and hot Atlantic coast. The second species, calfed “huaijas” would be even better able to control the situation than the “chalacos” if it | | | An intensified campaign to spread the gospel of diversified farming in northwestern North Dakota through the farmers’ institutes being conduct- | ed by the state department of agricul- |ture and labor was planned in Bis- marck yesterday at a conference of Governor R.

Under the plan decided upon at the conference yesterday the institute work in northwestern North Dakota, which is a part of the state-wide in- stitute work being carried on by Com- missioner Kitchen’s department, will | be extended to include several more towns’ in each of the northwestern counties.

It was at the earnest solici- tation of bankers and merchants, as, well as farmers, in northern counties that we have decided to extend the institutes so as to take in several mere towns in each county than orig- inally planned. And while potatoes will be emphasized because of the ap- parent interest in potatoes in that sec- tion, the institute workers will cover all phases of diversified farming and the meetings made as interesting as possible for farmers and their wives, did not have the habit of jumping out of the barrels.

URGES FARM TAX LESSENED Governor Speaks at Farmers’ Institute at Steele Steele, N. D., Feb. 14—At a farm- ers’ institute meeting here last night Governor R. A. Nestos pledged the support of the administration for a lower taxation on farms and farm property. He declared that the tend- ency during the last five years had been to ease up on railroads and oth- er corporations. in equalizing the taxes while the farmers are paying a larger proportion of the ‘tax burden than they did five years ago and more than their just and equitable share. ° “There must be a,change in the pro- portionment of taxes,” said the gov- ernor, “and the only just change is a reduction in the taxes on farm lands. The farmer’s taxes on his real prop- erty have increased more than twen- ty five per cent in the last five years while the proportion of the tax burden borne by the railroads have decreased in nearly the same ratio. “The administration and the legis- lature must combine their energies and efforts towards securing a more fair and just proportion of the tax burden. I think I can promise on the part of the administration that noth- ing will be left undone to arrive at a more equitable arrangement.” The governor also complimented the department of agriculture and the institute speakers and workers on the success obtained so. far during this Sedan - $1895 Coach - 1345 Touring 1095 Freight and Tax Extra It Will Delight You Come see how well it meets your desires.
