LiQuOzone a Harmful Compound.


The initial step in the crusade of the
San Francisco Board of Health against
impure drugs was taken few days ago
when a medicine" commercially
known as ''liquozone" was condemned.
1t was ordered that the officers remove
this drug from the shelves of all dealers
handling it, and that the selling, ex-
posing for sale or giving away of liquo-
zone, in the city and county of San
Francisco. constitute an offense. the
violation of which will be followed by
arrest of the offenders. Analyses of
liquozone show it contains no free oxy.
gen nor ozone. but is mixture of acidu-
lated water.

"Diamondfield" Jack Davis, has
broken into notoriety again. Last week
he was driving team to Goldfield from
Tonopah when he met an automobile
driven by a man named La Forrest.
Davis horses became frightened and
when he cursed the driver the latter
replied. Davis started to draw his gun
and the driver threw on the full current
in time to escape bullet that whizzed
past his ear. The frightened man re-
ported the case at Tonopah but no ar
rests were made.

in their defamation and decay, even as
they now threaten to follow them in
their utter extinction as pure and
peculiar race.
The true Rhode. Island turkey is a
descendant of khe aboriginal bird found
in the forests of Rhode Island by the
early settlers. The Rhode Island breed
more resembles the wild turkey found
In Mexico by Cortez than any other,
but is Of finer grain and more de-
Gcious flavor. Even in its wild state it
always had, like the Mexican bird,
served at the feasts ef Montezuma, a
white-meated breast, whereas most wild
turkeys are SAID to have black-meated
breasts
The. Rhode Island turkey did not
spring suddenly into fame, but grew
into it gradually Even in colonial days
the reputation Of the bird began to
creep along the seaboard and now it has
extended over continent and is even
known Of epicures across the seas.
The constant care and attention
which has to be bestowed upon flock
to bring even q few to maturity makes
any dream Of wealth based on turkey
farming in Rhode Island a baseless
vision.
To raise child is easy compared
with raising Rhode Island turkey.
In the first place, the infant turkey

principal food Of the infant turkey, and
there is an old belief that in childhood
the turkey must have a plentiful supply
Of grasshoppers. - 80
The Rhode Island turkey, properly
brought up, is never stuffed arti6cally
nor confined in close quarters in order
that, it may take on fat. The object is
to produce firm, finely favored, lus-
cious flesh, and not great fabby mass
Of fat. So, from the time it is hatched
until the festive seasons Of Thanksgiv-
ing and Christmas arrive, the turkey is
watched and tended and fed with the
greatest care. Tho in spite. Of every
thing, many die, a few survive and
these grow plump and are black and
shiny Of plumage.
AS rule, the turkey which dies
from the blackhead' does not turn
black as to its head. It is only in the
older birds that this symptom is noticed
at all, and not always in them. But
such Is the name Of the disease which
threatens to do for the Rhode Island
turkey. what war and frewater did fol
the Rhode Island Indians, his loving
neighbors and friends who almost Wor
shipped him.
The authorities of the State Agricul
tural college believe that the black
head is due to a microbe and that the
feeding grounds Of the turkey in the
state became infected. Some Of thei1
experiments would seem to 60 to prove
this theory. But SO far no means ha.

The best known raiser Of turkeys In
Rhode Island is Mr.. Vose, Of Westerly,
q little town near the Connecticut bor-
der. Vose achieved fame and maintains
1t by sending a Rhode Island turkey
every year just before Thanksgiving to
the president, custom which he began
in General Grants first term.
It is part Of the duty Of each sue
ceeding president, yearly upon receipt
of the delectable fowl, to sign with his
own hand note Of thanks to the donor.
This has resulted in Mr.. .Vose's becom-
ing the possessor Of complete collec-

But the breed of Rhode Island tur-
keys seems to be doomed and he who
would taste of the famous bird must
hasten, or it will be too late. If the
agricultural college succeeds by cross
ing in producing breed of turkeys
which will be immune to the blackhead,
there will still be turkeys in Rhode
Island, but no more Rhode Island tur-
keys.

In the general raising Of the level OF
intelligence, in the increase Of schools,
colleges and universities since 1865, the
country perhaps has the greatest cause
Of all to be thankful.
In this respect the west has relatively
more reason for gratitude than the east.
While nearly all the great institutions
Of learning were then In the east, to-
day almost every state has its great uni.
versity, besides several colleges and
other creditable seats Of advanced
learning, the Pacific coast being par
ticularly strong in such foundations.

the future Of the republic, since 1t In

forty years old.
Americas mode Of living has ad-

There are many things about this
country today with which even a good
natured person can find fault. But
cursory contract Of the condition OF
the country as it was then and as it
is now shows vast general Improvement.
Even an il-natured person must admit
that the forty years have brought much
for which we may all well be thankful.
To begin with, Thanksgiving day,
1865, found the country as yet practi-
cally unaddressed to the problem Of
getting over the frightful struggle that
had rent and torn and we'll nigh dis
rupted it. Not only were the wounds
of sectional ill-feeling still open and
unhealed, but most Of the industries
Of one great section were still practi,

~ The read djustment Of the country's
business, difficult always after great
war, but doubly 50 after the. civil war,
because Of the enormous initiation to
which the currency had been subjected,
i was yet to be undertaken. s,::l -
The hospitals were still, tenanted
with manned and diseased victims Of
I the great contest. It was still hard to
:, gather g. considerable crowd Of men
that should not contain individuals who
were without the full complement Of
arms and legs. Old, well-worn army
blue overcoats were still q common
sight. ~. H.. .fs.f.
There was still felt in the north the
arrogance toward the south that the
victor in hardly won fight naturally
feels toward the vanquished. There
was still felt in the south the bitter
ness and resentment that are almost
always felt toward the victor, by the
loser.
There was little i'll feeling, however,
on the part Of the men, north or south
who had done the actual fighting.
Tho this may seem strange to some
younger readers, it was this very
good temper on the part of the ex
soldiers, north and south, toward their
late adversaries, that even then was be-
ginning to act as un1rying force; that
was doing the initial work Of forging
new and stronger bonds Of union be
tween the recently warning portions OF
the land. - -. ~ = =. E..

There are misunderstanding among
Uncle Sam s children; some Of then
serious enough, in all conscience, bu
they are not sectional. Tho the peopl
of the United States are by no mean
of one mind in all things political to
day, there are none among them wn

ment, or who think it would be a goo
thing for the country to be split in two
