Coroner Smith Says Many Decaylng 1odles Of
Horses, Cows ard Smaller Animals Are
Caught In the Intake Canal

Coroner Smith makes public today
dangerous condition of the city's water
supply which is menace to the health
of the city, and of every person in it.
Carcasses of dead animals are rot only
OCCASIONALLY found in the intake canal
of the city water system. the canal
from which the drinking water rs OBJ
tanned, but he says that as many as %
or SO decaying bottles have been found
there, They included horses, cows
and sheep. as well as smaller animals.
The city authorities should not lose
moment in investigating this state
of affairs and in providing speedy re-
lief.
Cause Of Disease.
"A deplorable condition exists at
the pumping station of the Spokane
water works. said Coroner ID. l..
Smith today. ''Decaying carcasses of
animals of all descriptions, cows, horses,
dogs and sheep, have been coming
down the river and have lodged in
the channel from which the water is
pumped for city use.
Typhoid fever, diptheria and scarlet
fever have resulted from the tainted
water. There is no denying that Spo-
kane has splendid water supply. but
if this condition is allowed to continue
Spokane will always be ON the sick
list.
,"As far as I can learn continued
DR.. Smith. from 25 to 80 dead car
cases have been removed from the
DC dead
bodies are found they are removed.
Nevertheless, they remain lond enough
for the water to become tainted, and
disease is liable to result to the water
drinker.
Good Water Available.
81 have maintained all along that
a new water supply should be furnish
ed the city. There are enough springs
of pure water near the pumping sta
ton. and the new well which the city
is having sunk will increase the water
supply and diminish the sickness in
the city.
"This work should have been start
ed long ago. Complaints have ben
turned in every year about the water,
and until this year nothing has been
done to relieve the condition Spokane
has millions of good water going to
waste which might just as well be used
b. the city"
g Swift Current.
The city water works ars situated
five miles above the city, where the
river has been damned to furnish the
IL { l.
heads from above the dam to point
below it where the pump house is
situated. Through this canal the water
passes which turns the machinery, and
also from which the water is pumped
into the city mains. The current lead
ing into the canal is swift and it is
said on this account the dead bodies
are drawn into it rather than over
the dam. They are caught before they
enter the power house.

Dave Sullivan's record is not well
known in the northwest. He has
fought some of the best men in the
country and on the Goth he fights
Young Corbett" at San Francisco for
the featherweight championship of
the world. Only year ago Dave gave
Terry McGovern all the fighting he
could take care of in their battle at
Louisville, Ky. when Robert Fitzsim-
mons refereed. For a while Sullivan
had Terry throwing wild lawmakers
at him he was so ratified, and 1t
commenced to look as though Sullivan
had the terrible" on the way to
Queer street when McGovern dropped
of rapid-fire body blows which so
weakened Sullivan that he dropped
to the floor without being struck For
this Fitz awarded the fight to Terry.
Sullivan is built on stocky lines and
is clever and game. Neither he nor
his brother Spike ever acknowledged
defeat. Dave has great left hand
which he can jab with at will.
There is a wide difference in the
build of Sullivan and Long. The for
mer Is stockily built, while the latter
is rawbOned and somewhat 'rangey."

MAUD HARRIS
WANTS MONEY
FOR INJURY IN
REVIEW BLOCK

Mrs. Matte S. Harris, guardian ad
Item for her daughter Maud, has filed
amended complaint in her case
against w. II. Cowles, of the "Spokes-
man-Rsview." She asks for $4,000
for her daughter.
The revolving door at the entrance
of the Review building is the source
of the trouble. The young lady says
she caught her wrist between the
jamb and the door last October, and
that the force of the door shattered
the bone in her wrist. She claims
that she had to keep her arm in a
plaster cast and that her wrist will
never again be straight. Mrs. Harris
estimates that the pain suffered at the
time, together with the deformed
wrist, warrant a claim for $4,000.

LOUIE LONG AND DAVE SULLT-
VAN MAY MEET UNDER THE
AUSPICES OF THE S. A. A. c.
BOTH GOOD MEN WITH STRONG
RECORDS.
(By Jimmy Cullins.)

Spokane fight fans may be given an
opportunity of seeing the husky little
boxer, Louie Long, ein battle with
Dave Sullivan next month. The con-
test. If held, will be under the aus
pices of the Spokane Amateur Ath-
letic club in the Auditorium on some
open date which may be about
March 90
Louie Longs next fight will be with
Charlie Neary at Milwaukee. Billy
Lavigne, the Seattle promoter, will
leave some time before the end of
this week for the city that made
beer famous" to look after the inter
ests of his protege. In putting him
against Charlie Neary, Lavigne re-
Allies as well as can be that he Is
up against a game where the best of
men find it difficult to secure a decis-
ion because of the local popular opin-
ion. 1t has been said that Champion
Jeffries could not gain a decision over
Neary because the fight was held in
Milwaukee, and when story of that
nature gets out on a city the fans
realize what Lavigne has undertaken
for Long.
Seattle Mans Record.
Longs fighting record is not as long
as his name but in gaining two bat
ties with Aurelio Herrera, the Mexi-
can, he has demonstrated the fact
that he is there with both science and
punch. Herrera first fought him a
draw some months ago at Vancouver,
B. c., and on February ~ the two
again met in the ring at Anaconda,
Mont, and here Louie hooked it onto
the greaser for further orders. Since
the last battle Longs stock has gone
to par and in many cases above par,
and Lavigne has had numerous offers
to fight his man. Long can make 1928
to 1873 pounds very easily.
Plans for the Contest.
Plans for the local boxing contest
have not been fully arranged, but they
are gradually taking shape. Long

should be fed only what is needed for appeasing
the appetite. Like all other classes of breeding
animals, the ration should be increased gradually
after the offspring is born.
THE EVE.
What has been said in reference to the dairy
COW is especially applicable to the sucking eve,
since, however, the first growth of lambs is chiefly
from the mothers milk, there is no reason for
discussion of substitutes for this food. The eve
should be given food similar in every way to that
offered the dairy cow-succulent, rich in protein
and ~paltable. This can be supplied in good clover,
alfalfa, COW pea hay and concentrates similarly
used for the COW. From three-quarters to a
pound of grain should be given. AS the lambs
increase in size they will quickly begin to eat with
their mothers and the same food stuffs will be
eaten greedily by them.

Grading Up a Beef Herd.
Mr.. Clarence H. Poe, Editor, Raleigh, N.

Mr.. Clarence H.. Poe, Editor, Raleigh, N. c..
Ny Dear Mr.. Poe:-Professor Burkett's article
in YOUR issue of January Goth, in reply to an in
quiry from Mr.. Joyner is right to the point, but
| am inclined to differ with him in regard to his
advice to grade up on Jersey stock in the effort
to secure & beef herd. The writer's experience
is against this method of grading. The Jersey,
as we all know, is a very old breed of cattle, line
bred for years, and consequently the blood is very
strong, and as the type of the special dairy ami
NAL is entirely different from that of the beef an
imal, it will require several crosses to secure a
first-class beef herd if the above method is en-
ployed. Good Jersey COWS ought to bring $50 to
$40 as the market is to-day. And with the herd
Mr.. Joyner expects to maintain, it is the writer's
Judgment that it will pay him to dispose of the
good Jersey cows and purchase a car or two of
high-grades of one of the three beef breeds, thus
taking advantage of the other fellows ten or
twelve years of grading up.
The writer has within the past three years
brought to North Carolina about three hundred
head of high grade two year old Angus heifers.
These are range bred, all of a type, straight lined,
all of a size, all black and hornless, and are giving
a good account of themselves in their new home,
the first lot producing Sc per cent of calves with
IN four months after their arrival here. Their
caves are practlcauy pure bred, and you must
know they were fairly good from the fact that
We sold a good-sized bunch six months old as
feeders at $18 each f. 0. b. These cattle cost
US laid down here $3G.75.
Now in the writer's opinion it would pay Mr..
Joyner to purchase something of this sort rather
than spend so much time grading up the Jer-
seys. The scrub COWS, if good large ones, would
in my opinion, do much better as foundation
stock than would the Island cattle. The Holsteins
are not so bad, having larger frames and in the
majority of cases, not of quite so pronounced
dairy type as the Jersey.
We must, if we expect to make a success in the
production of beef, aim to produce the very best.
Like produces like, SO let us start right and when
we get to the top will have the satisfaction of
hallOoing down to the other fellow.
And while we are on the subject let US say that
the sire is HALF the herd, so don't look for the
p~ure-bred scrub, but insist on a first
class animal, and don't begrudge a living price
for him. A. T.

Good mixers will almost invariably show a we'll
developed milk vein. This big vein, which carries
the blood from the bag or udder to the heart for
publication, should constitute considerable of a
network on the udder itself and should then
continue well forward on the belly and disappear
in the region of the heart.
