Now They Ride to School.

In Ellsworth county three school
districts were recently consolidated
Into one and the school located 10 the
town Of Lorraine. Pupils are taken 10
school in wagons, paid for by school
funds. By this arrangement four
teachers do the work of six, and in
stead Of having only graded school,
as formerly, there is a high school
course, which one teacher manages.
The scheme is the one William
Stryker, state superintendent Of pub
lie instruction, has been advocating
for small districts for a year or more.
1t is so new at Lorraine, school having
opened only this month, that the ar.
raDgements for collecting the child
rem who live far from school are only
half made, but Prof. Stryker, who
visited the school this week, says the
people are well pleased with 1t, apG
it will not cost more to send wagon.
for the little folks who live far from
the school than it has cost to hire tn,
extra teachers.

To Kill the Fever Tick.

The Oklahoma live stock sanitary
board will undertake series 1T ex'
pelimentS next month to determine
whether the cattle tick, the cause OF
Texas fever, can be destroyed by dip
ping the infected cattle in petroleum,
The surceSs If these experiments will
be O: great benefit, not only to Okla
hOma. but to all those states south OF
the federal quarantine line.
The sum of 81 900 was set aside by
the last legislature fer the construc'
tion Of suitable dipping watts and fol
expenses incidental to carrying ont
the experiments. Work on vat and
pens was begun at Noble, Cleveland
county, several weeks ago, but faulty
construction in building the vat de-
layed its completion. This vat will
be the best one in the United States,
according tn R. ]. E iwards, secretary
of the board, and will cost about s225'
1t will have a trap platform from
which the steer will fall into mix
ture of petroleum and liquid sulphur
It is alleged that tins ui and sulphur
covering the mouth Of the tick, viii
cause il to smother to death, and IL
that way cleanse the cattle OF ticL'
which carry the fever germ.
The railways in Oklahoma have
offered to transport free OF charge
such cattle as the boald may wish Il
experiment on. Prof. L. L. Lewis
veterinarian at the Agricultural anC
Mechanical college at Saltwater, as
sisted by Mr.. Edwards, will conduct
the experiments. If it can be demon
strated that all the ticks on steer
can be killed, the cattle business vii
be restored to its original freedom
and the hardships Of the federal quar-
antine law will be mitigated. Pro
ducers of feed stuff in Oklahoma ant
Kansas, for instance, will have an al
year market for the vast herds OF TIT
southwest, instead Of few months
annually as the catt.emen, wheI
ranges and water are exhausted, cal
have their cattle dipped and SEN
without danger into these states 10
feeding purposes. This will increas'
the value of cattle below the quaran
tine line from SO to s. a head.
At present infected cattle can b
shipped north during the quar-
antine season only for immediat
slaughter. The federal Quarantin
line will be maintained to guar
against those who refuse to dip thei
cattle, but for those who do dip, tn
line will exist only in name.
Oklahoma, where fever is never al
Sent, proposes to take the lead |
finding an absolute remedy for tn
destruction of the cattle tick and t
persevere until further effort is use

On Monday evening a well.attended
meeting OF the mine owners of the Co
chiti was held in the Herald office for the
purpose OF aseertalning what induce
ment could be- offered TO the Cochiti q
Rio Grande Railroad company to build a
road into Bland, and also 10 construct re-
duetion works at the river. II. Claussen
was present, representing the company.
He stated that his company wished to
ascertain, before proceeding further,
what amount Of ore the camp would
guarantee to furnish daily. After dis
cussing the matter, Mr., Claussen was in.
structed TO inform his company that II
treatment charges were placed at a rea-
sOnable figure the camp would Q ter into
an agreement TO furnish 500 tons per day,
and that without doubt, In a very short
time, this amount could be- doubled, II
the company so desired. Mfr. Claussen
seemed we'll pleased with the result OF
the meeting, and we hope there may
nothing arise 10 prevent the company
from carrying out this great enterprise,
and that ere long Bland will DO connect
cd by rail with the outside world. and
that a large reduction plant will be in
successful operation at the river. We
think the showing made at the meeting
Ia a good one and should induce capital
to investigate our wonderful mineral re-
sources. The fact that 500 tons OF ore
per day is guaranteed, and this, too, from
mines about which little has been said,
ia not a bad showing, and particularly
80 when II Is borne In mind that none Of
u big mines, excepting the Crown
Point, are included In this estimate. The
Albemarle, Lone Star, Iron King, Wash.
ingtOn, Victor and other large mines that
intend 10 treat their own ore, having
been left out Bland Herald.
