GATHERING OPIUM.

There is revolution in opium pack
ing In India which 1t is calculated will
save the growers s5,000,O00 a year.
Formerly, on taking the opium from
the cultivators. II used to be placed in
earthenware jars. and these Jars were
packed with straw into wicker bas-
kets. This antiquated method will,
however, be seen no more. for the Jar
system is being replaced by packing
the opium in cloth and gunny bags. I,
has undergone preliminary test Of
two years in one sub-agency. and is
now being given crucial test by be-
ing tried side by side with the jar
plan, half the opium of this season
being packed in jars and half in bags
There is little doubt, however, as to
the final opinion.

The advantages are obvious first,
no breakages can occur, and there Is
much less lost by the amount of opium
sticking or adhering TO the sides. In
the latter case 1t is estimated that one
pound per jar is saved; while about s
per cent is lost in breakages, or about
four pounds per jar. There is, there
fore, saving of about five pounds per
jar, and as each suh-agency sends
about 10000 jars, the saving amounts
to 10000 pounds.

from Manila:

Vernillion, S. D, July 14-An.
drew E. Lee, governor OF South
Dakota, makes this statement con-
corning the governments action in
30 long retaining the volunteers
after the expiration of the term Of
their enlistment in the Philippines:
"The report from Manila regard
ing the South Dakota volunteers is
no surprise, for we have long known
OF the terrible condition to which
they have been reduced, and have
repe atedly urged the administra-
ticn to have them returned home,
but without effect.
Their obligation to the govern
ment closed when the treaty with
Spain was ratified. Since that time
their services have been used with
out warrant of law or justice.
The administration cannot escape
the responsibility of its mistaken sx-
pansien policy, for which this gsv-
ernment is paying 30 dearly with
life and treasure, TO say nothing of
the unpardonable injustice done to
a people whose only crime lies in
their desire for independence and
self government.
/ have definite knowledge that
many of the volunteers realizs the
injustice of the cause for which they
are forced to fight.
With the rapidly growing senti-
msnt that the expansion policy is a
serious mistake, and with the pres.
ent existing condition in the Phil
ippines, added to the experience OF
our wn regiment, I believe that but
few W ouId enlist from this state.

IMMUNIZED CATTLE.
Serum Discovered Which Prevents Texas
Fever.

Serum Discovered Which Prevents Texas
Fever.
Columbia, Mo, July 14.-Secre-
tary Rippey of the State Board of
Agriculture is preparing a report on
experiments made by the station
under the supervision of Doctor J.
W. Connoway, which will be of in
terest to all cattle men Last January
lao bulls were immunized at the
station and shipped to Texas for the
improvement of the herds in that
state. Only two of the animals thus
treated have died, whereas hereto
fore 80 per cent of the bulls import
ed frem the North have died within
few days after becoming infested
with ticks.
The success of the experiments
with the fever viii be worth thous-
ands of dollars to the stock interests
of the country. It is fact not
known to all that the station here is
perhaps the first to find successful
means of inoculating Northern cattle
against Texas fever.
The report concludes with this
paragraph:
"This station is prepared to insc-
ulate for Missouri breeders any
number of registered cattle they
may wish to ship South. We have
now at the station eleven head of
cattle that have been inoculated, and
are suitable for supplying immune
blood. Arrangements can possibly
be made by which work can be done
at farms, instead of at the station" :"

Child Dies of Hydrophsbia.

Columbia, Ne, July 15-The 4
year old child of P. j. Ssaly of Col
umbia died here last night of hydro
phobia, after suffering unteld agony
since Monday when the frat symp-
toms were developed. The child
was bitten by pet dog belonging
to the family of the victim. After
biting thechiid the dog ran amuck
and attacked several other dogs,
among them fine setter owned by
j. Il. Stephens, which was badly
bitten. The mad dog was killed
Monday morning.
Thirty-one days after receiving
the wound the child was apparently
healthy and happy. While playing
in front OF his home a negro boy
tried to frighten him by showing his
teeth and growing like dog. The
child shrieked with horror and went
into convulsions The child soon
manifested other symptoms of the
most awful of maladies and died last
night at 10 o'clock, greatly to the
relief of the parents, who were wild
with grief.
A remarkable feature of the case
was that the dog bitten on the same
day as the child developed symptoms
of hydrophobia also last Monday at
the same time, showing that the
time required for the development
of the poison in an animal is the
same as that required for human.
The dog broke it's chain last night
and escaped.

Galveston, Tex, July 1.-THE
loss from the feod lie now estimated
at $50, 100000. That the crop and
property damage is perhaps greater
than at first estimated is beginning
to be seen. The bankers who supply
the Brazos planters with money
have probably the best means OF
sscersainlng the exact extent OF the
ruin. The Galveston bankers who
have the largest collections in the
Brazos Valley are Col W. l. Moody
and FL. Ksnpner-
Col. Moody is president OF the
Galveston Cotton Exchange. He
estimates the cotton loss at fully
400 900 bales. The manager for H.
Kempnsr, basisg his estimate on
renorts from 40 or so Of his custom
ers. says the waters wiped out
crop that promised a yield of 500, 900
bales. Taking the medium between
thsse estimates, and putting cotton
at a value Of s cents per pound, or
sas a bale, means that in cotton
sIons the loss il $40, 900. 900.
The cotton loss represents only
ous-third of the aggregate loss by
rsasou of the foed. Thus the total
lass viii reach $50, ,00s, 900.
