YELLOW FEVER SITUATION.
Scarcity of Immune Physicians to
Care for the Sick.

JACKSON. Miss, October loving TO
the rapid spread of the yellow fever in
Mississippi and the number OF localities in
fected, the state board is having some
trouble finding immune physicians to put
in charge OF the camps. Numerous sus-
picious cases continue to be reported from
various parts of the state.
There is practically nothing new in the
fever situation in Jackson today. No new
cases have been reported, but rumors of
suspicious sickness are plentiful, and 1t is
very probable that a batch Of new cases
will be officially announced tonight. The
weather is cloudy and a shade cooler. and
this will tend to develop new cases.
Because of the fever in the orphan asy-
lum a move Is on foot to have the chill
dren there sent to 81. Louis, TO be cared
for until cold weather comes.

1t is not the part of good citizenship now
to join in the needless clamor which is
going UP to President Mckinley to muster
out the remaining volunteers. Let US all be
reasonable. The great war of 1S6l-65 ended
in April at Appomattox, but many a vet

following. The country's need is still su-

Fate of the Bachelor,
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.

Every almshouse in the land is full of old
bachelors, pale. moping men, who mediate
on childhood and its memories of friends.
If old age comes with wealth then the
bachelor realizes that the sweetest things
of life cannot be bought. His house is not
a home. Those who wait on him work not
Tor love, but for wages. He is like trav-
eier in a strange land, who wishes for a

COOPERATIVE DAIRYING.
Clatsop County Presents the Best oDpor-

II seems fair to presume that in the
near future a cooperative udiry plant will
be established in or near Astoria.
Mr. w. r. Spence, representing Baker e
Hamilton OF San Francisco, creamery sup
plies. Is spending few days in the city.
In an interview yesterday with an AS
torlan representative Mr.. Spence stated:
"Yes, rye had some experience with
creameries, and know that cooperative
dairy will keep money at home and
largely increase the earnings Of ranches.
Even in Arizona, which is hotter than
most places in the United States, We have
established creameries and by the use Of
special grasses for feed they are now in
successful operation.
II see here a large opportunity to build
up this industry. Everything Is especially
adapted for It's success. Cooperative dair-
les make themselves felt In the markets
in more ways than one Recently two
carloads Of butter from Elgin, Illinois,
were shipped to Japan. The creamery
made cents per pound, but how much
more could have been realized had the
butter been made here at tide water
Butter can be manufactured In this
section nine months in the year on ac-
count Of your magnificent climate, Hun
dreds Of pigs can be raised on the refuse
from the dalries, thus adding another
rich source Of revenue to the farmer.
"The o. X. e. N. Co.'S efforts 10 estab-
llsh cooperative dairylng and creamerles
here should meet with the heartlest sup
port from all. 1t means everything to
you. In these Improvements and efforts
at internal development do not lose sight
Of your county roads. twenty-five or fifty
thousand dollars now spent on roads
would mean in two years $4,000 Of re-
sources, and would hold the people here
besides adding largely to the population.
