CLUBBING RATES.
How to Secure Reading Matter For
Next Year at Lowest Prices.

We have made an extra effort this
year to secure for the benefit of our
readers extra low clubbing rates, so
that by ordering their reading matter
all at once they can secure it at the
lowest possible prices. We have OBJ
tained especial rates from many pub
fishers, and by materially reducing the
price Of our own paper when ordered
in this way, we have been able to make
rates so low that no person can afford
to be without the best papers of the
country. Below is our list, which will
be increased as rapidly as we are able
to secure satisfactory terms from pub
fishers. We can get almost any perio-
dical published for you at less money
than it will cost you, no matter
whether you are subscriber to our
paper or not. These prices compel us
to require that cash in adUance for the
full amount accompany all orders.
Remember the price of PUBLIC OPINION
is $1.5O per year, and by comparison
of these rates you will readily see how
cheap the publications become when
clubbed together: Our prices are way
below those made by other papers, and
we can save you money on any pub
lication. Watch this list. 1t grows
larger every week.

The District Court.

Things have been moving lively in
court circles during the past week and
the session will doubtless be much
shorter than was at first anticipated.
A member of important cases were
quickly disposed of at the outset and
the most prominent ones during the
week have been the case of Geo. A.
Blaess vs.. -Nickols Shepard Co., in
which the plaintiff asked to amend,
and the case was continued at his cost.
In the case of Chas. Matteson VS.. w.
H. Dent, Receiver, a motion to take
the case from the jury was granted,
and judgement was given in favor of
plaintiff. In the case of the State OF
Iowa VS.. Louis Dahl, the defendant
was found guilty, fined $500, and in
default of payment was sent to Jail.

like to add something to the gift OF

nishing of room in the new building

Home Society. This, you know, Is not
an orphans home In the usual meaning
of the words, but a shelter where home
less children are kept until they are
placed in good homes. In many cases
the child and the foster parents seem

more fortunate in always belonging to
each other. Leave your gift at Rich

CORN STALK DISEASE
DR.. B. Harmon Writes Interestingly
Upon the Disease so Preva-
lent This Year.

A number of farmers in various parts
Of this county having reported consid-
erable loss of stock from this disease.
1 write this as warning to those who
wish to feed their corn stalks to their
cattle in the field. 1t is scarcely nee.
essary to suggest that the cattle should
be taken out of the field wherein the
disease appears as early as possible and
not put back in the same field for at
least month; and then only for few
hours at time.
SYMPTOMs--The disease appears very
suddenly. The diseased animals may
be seen standing apart from the others
and showing peculiar bumped up ap-
pearance, the tail switching, eyes with
wild expression and some times cat
tie are actually delirious, stamping
and paving the ground, grating their
teeth and frOthing at the mouth. AS
the disease becomes more pronounced
the symptoms of pain and delerium in
crease, death generally occurring in
from one to twenty-four hours after the
first symptom is noticed. Cattle af-
fected with this disease are frequent.
ly reported as rabid and have been the
cause of considerable excitement in the
neighborhood, the people thinking it
was rabies and that the cattle had been
bitten by mad dog. A mad dog
story usually becomes attached sooner
or later to the history of the outbreak.
The diSease is probably not contagious
and many cases appear in close success
sion simply because the cattle have
been all living under similar conditions
and eating the same feed.
PREvENTION--The prevention of this
disease is very simple. Before the cat
tie are turned into the corn stalk field
they should be allowed a liberal feed of
hay, clover or any other feed that is
convenient. Then allowed liberal
supply of water. After that they can
be turned into the corn-stalk field for
two or three hours. Cattle when feed
ing this way should have q generous
supply of salt as that will induce them
to take water. thereby moistening the
food in the stomach and preventing
the disease. The trouble comes most
frequently to cattle that are turned in
to the stalks hungry. There is not so
much danger III feeding the corn that
is cut and shocked as there is in turn
ing into the stalk field. But in very
dry season like this has been that too
is dangerous.
TREATMENT-The disease progresses
so rapidly and the animals die so sud-
denly that treatment is almost impos-
sible after the disease is thoroughly
established. Still in some cases cure
may be affected by the persistent use
of cathartics. Give one pound of Ep-
som salts Dissolved in two quarts of
water as drench, then in two hours af
ter give one pint of raw linseed oil.
Use enemas of soap and water. A per-
sistent use of this treatment will some-
times have the desired effect.
