Method for Destroying Germs of Texas

DIR. Norgaard, chief of the pathological
division. bureau of animal industry. has
returned from a trip of inspection of the
experiment of dipping" cattle at the Fort
Worth, Texas stock yards. AS on his for
mer visit, DIR. Norgaard was greatly i'm
pressed with the successful result of the
dipping" which, as has been stated in
The Star, is for the prevention Of the
Texas fever" so destructive to the cat
tie interests in the south. 1t has been es-
timated that If the fever can be prevented,
1t will make a saving of at least fifteen to
twenty millions of dollars annually to the
stock raiserS
DIR. Norgaard saw several hundred of the
cattle driven into the watts of oil-covered
water. and found on investigation that the
ticks which cause the fever were killed by
the operation. The only difficulty encoun-
tered is the irritation of the skins of the
animals by the use of the Oil, but this has
no lasting effect. The parattin which Is
Used i'll the water to kill the ticks Is now

Illinois and Missouri. In the latter the ex-
periments will be conducted under the aus

THE CAMPAIGN IN FAIRFAX.
Issues Discussed by Lending POliti-
l. clans ut the Court House.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
FAIRFAX c. H., Va. October 10, 1897"
j. Hoge Tyler, democratic candidate for
governor, was booked for an address here
today but for some reason did not appear.
There were. however, plenty of democratic
speakers on hand.
p. H. McCaull the Lamb candidate for
governor, was also on the ground, and
both wings of the republican party came
together in harmony to hear him.
Major o. E. Hine, regular republican can
didate for the legislature, made an able
address of about half an hour. He vigor-
ously attacked the present election law,
and promised, If elected, to endeavor to
secure a law that would insure fair and
honest elections. He then introduced Nc
Caull, who spoke for about two hours and
a half in his usual witty and spicy style,
treating largely of national, as well as
state issues.
The first speaker for the democrats was
Jos. E. Willard, their candidate In this
county for the legislature. He said he was
not calamity bowler, but charged that
the republican administration had failed to
furnish Its promised prosperity. The In
creased price of wheat was the result of
an act of Providence, which had brought
famine and starvation to other parts Of
the world. He admitted that the new tariff
bill had started some industries. but
claimed that none but capitalists had been
benefited. In discussing the silver ques-
ton he said that he was not an original
free silver man, but was always an orig
inal democrat. He said he was in favor
of honest election laws.
He was followed by Representative Jno.
F. Rixey, whose speech was very brief,
owing to an affection of the. throat.
r. w. Moore charged Major Hine with
having endeavored to disfranchise ex-con-
federate soldiers when he was member
of the convention which framed the pres
ent state constitution.
misrepresentation E. E. Meredith urged
the democrats not to stay at home on cleo
ton day through overconfidence.
Lewis H. Machen, young member Of
the Fairfax bar, closed the program with
a bright and forcible speech.

The Demand In America Largely Ex-
ceeds the supply.
Assistant Librarian Spofford said to1ay
regarding the matter of having a course in
colleges and universities in which to train
librarians:
Ihe question as to the utility or neces-
slty OF division devoted to library science
Ill the program of university education is
one which can be settled only by the facts
as to public needs in that direction. Now
1t Is undoubtedly true that the demand in
this country for skilled librarians has hith-
erto exceeded the supply.
Multitudes of libraries mostly nerhans
small ones, have sprung UP in all parts of
the country. and each town opening a pub
lie library of course needed an expert libra
ran to organize and administer it. Hence
the demand for librarians, not only for pub
lie free libraries provided under state laws
by local or general taxation but many
thoroughly endowed by private Iberalty.
which are becoming increasingly numerous.
Hundreds of such libraries exist, found
ed within the past few years-in New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut,
New York and other states in the east and
west. This rapid multiplication of libraries
leads naturally to demand for library
education.
This demand has been filled in part by
four or five schools of library scence-one
in Drexel Institute, Philadelphia; one in
fiatt institute, Brooklyn, one IN the state
library. Albany, n. Y: another in Chicago,
etc. The establishment of the School of
Library Science ia Washington. in Column
bian University, is in harmony with the
idea of furnishing the widest possible Gull
ture IN every science which appears to be
the ann of all progressive Institutes of
learning.
That Guardianship is a science will not,
be doubted by any one having the slightest
acquaintance with it's rudiments. TO be

formation on any subject, one must under
so much experimental training, just one
cannot teach what he does not know.
The class formed at Columbian, although
as yet small, consists of ladies and gentle
men who seek library education of their
own volition, and the faculty have simply
responded to demand which existed for
this class of instruction. The voluntary
character of the courses in this university
Is a praiseworthy arrangement, enabling
any student to take an optional course"
