eighteenth century about one-four-

years of that century, when the prac-

the mortality of this disease had aug
mented to one-tenth.

of applying this preventive incubation
with the cowpoN on large scale: he
tested its efficacy by careful expert

He Wouldn't insure His Life.

The business methods of insurance
companies are not ut al! to the liking
of a shrewd old German farmer with
whom a certain agent had some deal
ings. The house of the farmer. insured
for $1,000, had burned down. The privi-
lege of replacing a burned house is re-
served by insurance companies. and the
agent. having this in mind, said to the
farmer:
Well put up better house than the
che you had for $500.
"Nsin!" said the farmer, emphatical-
ly. Il will hat my one tousand dollar or
notings! Dot house could not be built
again for even thousand"
oh, yes, it could said the insurance
man. 1T was an old house 1t doesn't
days. A $500 new house would be a lot
bigger and better than the old one"
Some months later, when the insur-
ance man was out for a days shooting,
he rode up again to the farmers place.
"Just thought I'd stop while I was up
here" he said. "to sec if you wanted to
take out a little insurance"
II got notings to insure" said the
farmer-"notings but my Wife,
well, then" said the insurance man,
cheerfully. Ensure her."
"Nein!" said the farmer. with deter
nination. IF she die, you come out
here and say. I not gif you one tousand

GERMANS IN SOUTH AMERICA.

Germany has a greater interest in
South America than is apparent to the
casual observer. She is also credited
with dislike of the Monroe doctrine,
and with intrigue in defeating the sale
of the Danish West Indies to the Unit
ed States, for the reason that In time
she hopes to absorb Denmark and thus
come into possession of these islands for
her own use. However this may be,
Stephen Bonsal contributes for the

tant in its significance as in many WAYS
1t is, the movement of German colonists
from the Fatherland to the fertile re-
gions of southern Brazil, which has
been going on for a number of years,
has not attracted much attention. Year
by year the German element of the
population of that region has been In
creasing, and 1t numbers today nearly
half a million souls. Brazil has become
alarmed at the situation, and some of
her political leaders are calling atten-
ton to some facts that may have a
meaning of their own--to wit, that the
southern states of Brazil are becoming
denationalized; that while Italian i'm
migrants are becoming Brazilians and
adopting the Portuguese language, the
Germans cling to their nationality and
language; and that Germans born in
Brazil consider Germany their Father

BUSINESS FEATURES.

With the close of the year, attention
has been chiefly given to a summary OF
the twelve months results. Reports to
f. G. Dun & Co. show commercial fail
ures in the United States during the
last year 11,615 in number, with $117,-
476,769 of defaulted liabilities. This is
slight increase, as compared with the
HOOP failures in 1901 for S11S,Oe2,376,
but there is gratifying decrease from
the average for the preceding ten years,
or even for twenty year period Even
tho business has been prosperous there
are always many in the field whose
failures are bound to occur as the re-
suit OF lack of capital or failure to keep
expenditures within safe limits or thru
speculation or other faults; and the
more prosperous the era the more ven
turesome many become.
Retail business has been holding up

notable features Of business, as noted
by Bradstreets, are the strength of the
prices of staples as the year opens. and
the hopefulness as to the outlook for
spring and summer trade. Such fea-
lures indicate more than anything else
could the sound conditions upon which
business rests.
One disturbing factor is found in the
fact that transportation facilities are
at present utterly inadequate to meet
demands, the pressing need of fuel d.
verting rolling stock from other classes
of freight. This, with the embargo that
winter weather always put upon traffic,
creates vexatious situation. The
railroads have been prosperous during
the past year, however, and are giving
orders for large numbers of new cars
and locomotives in order to meet flu

noAR,s ANTITRUST BILL.

Senator Hoar awakened considerable
Interest among public men by intro
ducing an antitrust bill by title merely
Just before the holiday adjournment.
AS he is an able constitutional lawyer
and congressman of extended expert
ence, public expectation was aroused
by his act He has just perfected the
measure and It has been given to the
press.
The bill embodies the features of
nearly all the measures that have been
introduced, and contains nothing espe-
cially new. Hoar Is therefore accused
OF picking up all the good ideas for his
BILL Publicity is the main feature of 1t,
that sort OF publicity which requires a
corporation to file sworn statement
with the Interstate commerce commits
sion giving complete exposition of its
affairs. This new form of exercising
centralized power by the government
is bound to awaken opposition. Other
sections provide against such corpora
tons becoming monopolies and at
tempting to drive out competitors by
underselling at less than fair market
prices. A second conviction for VIOLA
lions OF the provisions Of the act will
prevent corporation from engaging in
Interstate or foreign commerce, unless
1t be business upon which the people
are entirely dependent. The penalties
for violation are a fine not exceeding
$4,000, or imprisonment not exceeding
a year, or both.
Comment on this anti trust bill
chiefly takes the form of prophesy that
1t will not pass at the present session.
Chairman John T. jenkins, of the house
judiciary committee, is little more Sc
we're. He declares the trust have moth
ing to fear from it, and the people have
nothing to hope for, in case 1t is writ
ten into the statutes of the country"
AS the initiation in prosecution Is
placed in the hands OF the attorney
general, and as the sum of 100000 is
appropriated to aid In such work. much
is left to the judgment of that official in
the effort to curb offensive monopolies.

THE c. & N. VS. SAFE SYSTEM

i tE 4. d N. WIS SAFE. SYSTEM,
Hampton Recorder
The severest test that any railroad
ever gave a system Of operating trains
quickly and safely took place between
clinton, Iowa, and Chicago on the
Northwestern road last Sunday, when
within nine hours $50 cars of stock in
twenty-seyen trains We're run to market
in Chicago. The road has recently
equipped the line with an electric block
system and this enables it to handle the
business by running the trains about
seventeen minutes apart. There was not
a single delay or accident. The work
OF sending the empties back to the far
west is as interesting as the run with
loaded cars. The trains go back in
lengths that stretch out nearly Il mile.
and are run on fast time. The doubling
of the track between Chicago and the
Missouri river and the modern block
system has furnished facilities for
live stock unparalleled i'll the
history of western railroading.
