Not Very consoIing.

Inc Elma Democrat publishes the
article of the PLAIN DEALER of June
2S, the reply of A. j. Cray thereto and
adds the following which cannot be
very consoling to the office seekers
nerves. There being plenty of repub-
lleans in the the county of older vint-
age, it looks as though he would be
left to tarry outside the gates awhile
at Jerico to let his beard start, which
makes him desperate enough to DENY
the pianist truths. The torrid sea.
son has just begun and he's all in q
foam. The Democrat says:
"But still the facts in the case point
TO the truth of the PLAIN DEALER,,
article. We remember distinctly thai
MI. Mead told us that A. j. GRAY hac
asked him for aid in securing the
nomination for county representative
on the democratic ticket in 1897. Now
Mr Mead told us of this before Mr.
Cray had announced himself candi
date for that office on the republican
tic',et. So it does not appear that he
is enthusiastic in trying to prevent
Mr. Cray from securing a nomination
by the republican party 1t appear.

Parturient Paralysis and the
Schmidt Treatment.

This is the title of Bulletin No IS.
written by John j. Repp veterinarian
TO the experiment station. BY way of
introduction it gives a brief account
OF the generation, symptoms, course
and diagnosis of this form of milk fever
OF COWS. The principal part of the
bulletin is devoted to detailed des-
cription of the treatment of this dis
ease reacently introduced by veterin-
arian j. Schmidtof Holding. Denmark
ana to the report of 166 cases treated
by veterinarians in Iowa according to
the Schmidt method with curative
results in l27 cases, or rs. S per cent.
The results shown in this report are
extremely encouraging in view of the
TACT that by other methods used prior
TO the introduction of the Schmidt
treatment good results were very sell
dom obtained. This is the most ex-
haustiye report yet made on this SUBJ
Ject IN America, and it is thought
that it will prove of much value to
those who are the owners of milch
COWS. The bulletin may be had by
addressing Experiments Station. Ames.

have taken part In the parade were on

aged. The three newspapers of Cresco
made no charge of any kind for the
celebration locals which had ben run
ming in the papers during the six
weeks previous to July 4th, and the
Times and Republican only made a
small charge for the half page ad given
in the issue just before the 4th, while
the PLAIN DEALER made no charge
for advertising, and small charge for
publishing this report Of the commit
tee.
All bills and claims Of every nature
arising out Of the celebration have
been paid in full, and the committee
heartily thanks the citizens and more
especially the business men for their
liberality In contributions. A large
amount of work was necessiated In
collecting the fund and providing en-.
tertainment, but the committee feels
sufficiently compensated from the fact
that all assisted them to make the
celebration grand success. Had 1t
not been for the rain every feature of
the celebration would have been
complete success with the largest at
tendance at any celebration ever held
in the city, and with an entertain
ment such that every one would have
been satisfied that the day had been

We recommend that the medals be
contested for by the athletsof Howard
county for the championship at a field
meet to be given at Cresco Driving

decided upon, and that on evening of

xne crow is the evil genus OF tho
turtle just as Of the diamond back and
other tcrrapins. When the warm days
Of spring come and the female terra.
pins and turtles leave their beds in the
marsh, the crow goes OH guard, know
ing that a season Of feasting is Mt hand.
Both tcrrapins and turtles seek tho
warm, sandy uplands near the shore
to deposit their eggs. A hole is dug
several inches deep and from 20 to 30
inches oblong, while eggs are dcposit-
cd and then tho nest Is filled or covered
with sand. Having neatly piled tho
sand over the eggs, the turtle raises
herself just rs high as is possible, then
comes down with n heavy thud on the
sand. This is continued until the sand
Is quito hard, when the eggs are left
for the sun to hatch. In the meantime
the crow has been on guard, and by
means Of his sharp bill and strong
claws the work of breaking into the
treasure house of tho unsuspecting
turtle is quickly accomplished and
the feast is soon over, The crow is con.
sidered by many to be tho greatest en-
