Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1903-04-22

An expert Dugologist employed by
the government states that the farmers
and orchardists of this country will
lose over $300.OOOOO0 this coming sea-
son from the depredations Of various
forms of insect pests. He says the
chinch bug will destroy $100,000.000
worth of crops, the grasshopper $780,
100000. the Hessian fly $5O.OOO,OOO, the
cotton worm $65.000,000 the potato
bug $S,000,000 and the cabbage worm
100000. These losses, assuming that
they will really take place, become an
important factor in price making for
farm and garden produce and serve as
check and balance to prevent over
prouuutI0ri &.r "nraniuneraIIye prices.

We know man who brags that he
has raised corn on a certain field on
his farm for twenty consecutive years.
1t is piece of river bottom land and
was originally very fertile. Still, the
fact is he does not get to exceed one
half the crop on this field that he did
twenty years ago. 1t matters not what
the crop may be, it should never be
grown continuously on the same land,
and this applies in a smaller way to
garden crops as well as field crops.

The marvellous industrial develop
ment of the United States during the
past decade contains no record that can
compare with the growth of our great
iron and steel industry. The whole fas-
cinating story of the evolution from
very small beginnings of the wonderful
aggregation Of coking ovens, blast fur
naces, and rolling mills, which render
the valley of the Monongahela in Penn
sylvania the very center Of the worlds
iron and steel industries, has never
been told. In a special number devoted
to Iron and Steel exclusively, the Sci
entifc American presents an authorita-
tive account of how we have out
distanced all other countries in the pro-
duction of iron and steel. How won.
derful that development has been, is
shown by the mere fact that in 1910
there we're produced in the United
States but So, 1903 tons of pig iron, and
that in 1902 the total output of pig iron
passed far beyond that of our nearest
competitor, Great Britain, reaching the
huge total of II, 1921, 3O7 tons. How this
vast output of pig iron is converted into
armor plate, gun steel, structural shapes,
tubes, rails and steel and wire, besides
a host of other things, it is this special
numbers purpose to tell.

How to Kill Lung Worms.
EDITOR LEADER:

EDITOR LEADER:
Being requested by some OF your
readers for q treatment for lung worms,
I can do no better than to repeat the
directions given IN THE LEADER a year
ago.
This disease affects lambs mostly,
and is recognized by the white and
bloodless appearance Of the skin, the
general weakness of the young animals,
aud a cough which has a rafting
sound. in consequence Of which the
weakened lambs are able to breathe
only with difficulty.
The disease is due to the presence in
the throat and air passages of the lungs
of a small white worm, slender and al
most invisible in the mass of frothy
mucus in which they are gathered in
clusters.
This disease is Immediately recog-
nized by severe coughing fits of the
infected animals, mostly lambs under a
year old. The difficulty in breathing
necessarily prevents the due a~eration
and publication of the blood as it
passes through the capillaries of the
lungs to be refreshed by the pure air
breathed. The red corpuscles of the
blood are greatly decreased in number,
and as these are necessary to the full
development Of the body, the affected
lamb l%anguishes, becomes weak, the
blood is reduced to a yellow serum
without vitality.
The treatment depends upon the de-
struction Of the parasite. This is most
easily effected by the use of turpen-
tine, continued until the system is sat.
urated with it and the fumes escape
through the lungs and throat. Here
the volatile oil comes in contact with
the parasite and kills it. thus relieving
the suffering animal most effectively.
As soon as relief is afforded in this
way, the most easily digested and nu-
tritious food, as linseed meal, with oat
meal and bran, is to be given daily In
moderate quantities to insure full d.
gestion. The turpentine is most easily
given in sweet milk, the two shaken
together to form an emulsion. The
quantity Is q %teaspoonful given in
the morning, before eating and repeated
daily for eight days. To each teaspoon
full of turpentine add four or five of
sweet milk, and drench with a small
bottle.
/ have used the above treatment for
two years with good results. Do not
wait until your lambs are securing and
ready to die aud expect a few doses of
turpentine to save them, but as soon as
the lambs begin to cough doctor all of
them. Up to two years ago sheep in
Lincoln county were as healthy as they
are anywhere, but the importation Of
new blood has brought us new diseases,
and We are now where older counties
have been for years. We must mus,
wake up and adopt different methods
or 60 Out. Of business. Lincoln county
is first and last a stock country, and if
9 can not keep stock here, we would
better move. Let us exchange ideas
and treatment of all kinds Of stock.
and while We are helping ourselves we
will help others. I will be glad to
answer any questions through The
LEADER or by letter. I know of locali-
ties where hundreds of lambs have
died this fall This takes off the profit,
reduces taxes and disconrages stock.

ment this loss could be avoided.

is to be gained by faithful, intelligent
work.
At the end of the school year a
committee of three persons will be
chosen, one by the Silver State, one
by the high schools pupils, and the
third by these two, to decide who Is
entitled to the cup. They will take
from the records of the principal the
monthly standings showing the
scholarship of the individual pupil, for
each month of the year, including the
last month. June. To each monthly
marking will be added the marking
in department, and the standing or
scholarship of each pupil will thus
be determined. The announcement OF
the winners name and the presenta-
tioi of the prize cup will be made at
the time the commencement exercises
are held.
The Silver State believes that the
cup will serve as an incentive to
greater effort on the part of the pupils,
and if this belief is correct, the donors
will be more than pleased. The prize
is one worth working for. 1t is one OF

The truth is that the total valuation
of the railroad company's lands in

than ever before, and the county will

the railroad company than last year.

truthfully be said, the parents and
everybody concerned, feel that the
Wlnnemucca schools are standing on
the threshold of the year of their
greatest advancement and the highest
attainments.
These statements are made advised
ly and without the slightest intention
of casting any unfavorable reflections
on the abilities or the energies of any
who have helped in the past to buill
up our schools. On the other hand,
all feel that the efforts put forth for
the advancement of the schools by
those who have in the past labored in
their behalf have contributed largely
to make them what they are today
second to no schools of like grade m
Nevada. All who have labored in the
interests of the schools of Winnemucca
in the years that are gone, worked
faithfully and intelligently; they work
ed for the future and builded even
better than they knew, and the result
is, a foundation solid and secure on
which the future educational interests
OF Winnemucca may rest in safety.
In the coming year, as in the past,
much of the success of the schools will
depend upon the principal and his
corps of assistants. And the consider
alton of this fact is the cause for the
confidence and trust that the pupils
and parents feel. No school in the
west has a better equipped, or more
progressive, earnest and enthusiastic
principal than is found in the person
of w. L. Butler. His election by the
board gave general satisfaction, and
the progress of the schools under his
management and guidance gives in
creased cause for approval every day.
As to the teachers of the various
grades and Of the department of
music, it is a fact disputed by none,
that not one of them could be replaced

The Silver State shares this feeling
in common with all good citizens. The
members of the company living in
Wlnnemucca who have children en-
rolled as pupils of the schools here,
and those who have not, feel alike a
deep and sincere interest in the well
fare of the institution, and have q
strong desire to see it not only as
good as other schools of the state,
but noticably better. The Silver State

are interested in the paper as stock

fos the highest degree of thorough
ness and scholarship in the individual
pupils for the coming school year, and
to encourage greater effort toward
the attainment of that end offers as
an incentive beautiful silver cup,
a cut of which is herewith shown.
This cup is to be presented at the
exercises next June to
the high school pupil who shall stand
highest in general scholarship for the
entire school year of 10000. The
high school embraces the 9th, 10th
ami 18th grades, every pupil of which
has an equal chance to win the prize
