COMPLETE SURVEY FOR LINE.
Fairfield and keosauaua Business Men
Rush Work on New Road.

Fairfield, Sept. 3o.-The survey of
the proposed right of way of the pro-
jected ihterurban railroad from this
city to Keosauqua has been completed.
The engineers in charge of the sur
vey say that the expense of running
the road via Birmingham as first
planned will probably be too great to
make it feasible, so it will probably
go by way of Stockport, with cutoff
to Birmingham if necessary. Stock
port has been very anxious to get this
road. The local hackers Of the road
are seriously considering consulting
with Packwood and Richland business
men to extend the line to those towns.

LOCUSTS In THE STATE
Waupaca County Last to b.
Invaded by Pest.

~o
This year seems destined to be an
unfortunate one for the farmers of
Wisconsin. First a cold spring held
back crops, then heavy rains and high
water flooded out those crops on the
lower lands. and now it looks as
though that part of the crop remain
ing, was to be devoured by locusts.
Seventeen year locusts, as they are
called, are invading the state. Their
first appearance wa. in the lead and
zinc country in the southwestern part
of the state. Since then they are
appearing in small numbers all over
Wisconsin.
Waupaca county is the last in which
these pests have been seen. In the
potato lands in that county, a mum.
Der have been found in the last week.
A circular describing the insects has
been Sent among the farmers of that
county, warning them of the
destructiyeness Of the locusts. AS a
consequence sharp lookout is being
kept ali over the county for the pests
and they are killed whenever found.
There is some talk of calling special
meeting Of the county board of that
county and placing a bounty on the
locusts if they appear in very large
numbers.

DANGERS OF
CATTLE TUBERCULOSIS
Tuberculin Test and Better
Sanitary Conditions as a
Means of Preventing Spread
of the Disease.

VI luS OlSc6Scs
tuberculosis in cattle is a serious
menace to the dairy.intereStS of the
state and the Importance of the
tuberculin test as means of prevent
ing the spread of this deadly cattle
plague, are emphasized in the latest
bulletin Of the University of WiScon-
sin Experiment Station, just prepared
by Professor Fl. L. Russell of the
department of dairy bacteriology. If
the farmers and dairymen of the
state neglect the simple precaution
of making this tuberculin test, the
bulletin points out, there is serious
danger OF the cattle and dairy interests
Of the state suffering large financial
loss. Although Professor Russell does
not consider in detail the question Of
the danger to human life and public
health OF the neglect to guard against
tuberculOus cattle, he emphasizes the
fact that any herd supplying milk as
human food for direct consumption
should be safe guarded against the
possibility of this malady. when
public sentiment is finally aroused in
such matters as this,' he writes,
"cities will protect their citizens by
requiring tuberculin tests to be made
on all herds supplying milk for city
delivery. II large cities, like st. Paul,
Minneapolis, and Duluth can do this
for their citizens, cannot Wisconsin
towns demand similar prOtectiOn?"
The milk supplied by the three herds
examined and condemned during the
past three months, was being delivered
TO hundreds of customers in two of
the largest ciJies of southern
Wisconsin,.
No man who is engaged in the
business of stock raising, whether for
general or dairy purposes, Professor
Russell points out, car afford to leave
his herd INFESTED. Even if he ignores
entirely the public health aspect Of
the question, an aspect which, of
course, should be considered by the
milk producer, and regards the
question purely from an economic
point Of view. every farmer should
have his herd tested to ascertain it's
present condition and should further
test all new animals bought. $50
long as Wisconsin farmers are content
to let their herds 90 without finding
out for certain whether this insidiOuS
disease is present or not" the bulletin
concludes, $50 long will the disease
continue to thrive unrccognized. 1t
will never be stamped out completely,
unless stockmen are willing to
Investigate their own herdS.''

THE WORK OF SACAJAWEA

Richard Lloyd Jones concludes his
article on "Our North Coast Empire"
in Golfers for June II by saying:
The Lewis and Clark Exposition at
Portland is great because of all it sig
nifes. Let us not forget that a hun
dred years ago Briton and Frenchman
and Spaniard were hammering at our
gates. In our abundance and luxury
let US recount those rugged days when
Indians beleaguered our wooden
castles and wolves paved our cabin
doors. 1t required hero stuff to build
our North Coast Empire, and upon an
immortal four will ever rest thatglory;
Thomas Jefferson, the nation builder;
lieriwether Lewis and William Clark,
the Empire hunters, and the red
skinned girl Sacajawea, who led them
to their conquest. In all the annals
Of history there Is no story to parallel
that of the Indian bird-woman who
more than once saved the heart of
that great enterprise from swift decay,
and even denied her own papoose the
long-Saved cruSts that the strength Of
our color bearers might not fade.
With outstretched arm she led
hostile race that they might build
great cities over the graves of her
kind. But for her the turrets and
towers that rose along the trails
might today fly the bunting Of a
foreign flag. She was the silent,
faithful, untiring pathfinder who led
the Stars and Stripes up Missouri's
waters, over the great Rocky divide,
and down the ''Sunset River" to the
great father of seas that white child
rem might some day sing the song she
herself had loved long before it's words
were framed, my country, tits of
thee, sweet land of liberty" She,
like Columbus, believed that lone
day with life and heart is more than
time enough to find a world" In the
heart of Jefferson's brave explorers
she kept that spirit aflame. And so
we celebrate.

"A SIMPLE TEST
FOR TUBERCULOSIS
How to Find the Disease in

Cattle.
The method of determining whether
cattle are tuberculouS is compare
lively simple one. The temperature
Of the animal is taken several times
during the day to obtain the usual
normal range which may sometimes
fuctuate one or two degrees. By
means of a hypodermic syringe the
tuberculin is injected during the
evening, and the temperatures again
taken about ten hours after Injection,
this process being repeated four or
five times at intervals of two hours.
If the temperatures after injection
rise two or more degrees above the
average normal and are maintained
for some hours, the test is regarded
as positive proof of the existence of
tuberculous LESSONS, although nothing
can be foretold as to the extent of the
disease in the animals. An unaffected
