To Report on Smallpox,

The Denison Herald of Thursday
said:
Inspector J. George Wright, of the
Indian agency at Muskogee, came
down last night to investigate the
smallpox situation in the Indian
Territory north of Denison, There
are a pumber of cases in the Choc-
taw and Chickasaw nations north of
Denison and the disease, on account
of there being no way to care for it
and take steps to stamp it out, has
been growing worse, and the atten-
ton of the Indian agency has been
called 20 the condition of affairs. 1t
has assumed such proportions and
the danger of a spread has grown to
such au extent that the federal gov
ernment will be compelled to take
charge of it and stamp out the dis
ease.
Indian Inspector Wright has been
investigating the matter for some
time and will soon be ready to make
his report to the interior department.
Gases near Colbert, across the river,
are being investigated today.
Guy p. Cobb, United States reve-
nue. inspector for the Indian Terri
tory, came down to Denison this af
ternoon at 1920, and joined Mr.
Wright, and they have been in con
sultation with local physicians thii
afternoon, obtaining facts and dati
in regard to the existence of the dis
ease across the river, with view Il
adopting stringent measures to staml
it out.

NUT-BEARiNG TREES.
Secretary of Agriculture VIII Study the
Native Article with View to Making
Them Profitable.

Washington, Dec. 1S.-Secretary
Wilson has arranged through the de-
partment of agriculture for study
of the native nuts of the United
States, with a view to making their
cultivation profitable in regions to
which they are adapted. He says
there are hundreds of acres of idle
land in this country which in few
wears could he made to yield fair re-
turns if planted to nut trees. OF the
varities now grown at random many
are valuable for food. oil, and for gen
eral mercantile purposes. Secretary
Wilson has planned to collect, propo-
gate and disseminate some of the
more promising nuts, and at the same
time make IA thorough study of the
conditions best suited to their growth,
as well as the methods of propagation
and the handling of the product. AT
present nearly all of the nuts used IN
this country for table consumption
are imported, and it is believed our
soil and varied climate is susceptible
of producing greater yield of more
valuable nature.
