FIGHTING THE SCAB
OVER 100000 SHEEP
DIPPED IN PAST YEAR.
Percentage of Cures Has Reached
99.S5 Per Cent Where Strict Record
Was Kept-Federal Inspectors in
Pendleton Are Part of an Immense
Government Bureau-Work of the
Bureau is Reducing Stock Diseases.

Few people who have not investi-
gated the subject have little idea of
the immense extent of the operations
of the bureau of animal industry or
federal stock inspection, which is
represented in Pendleton by Drs. Ly-
tie and Pinkerton, federal stock in
spectors.
The year book of the department
of agriculture, which has just been
issued gives some interesting statis-
tics of the work of this important
bureau, and while the reports of the
federal inspectors located in this city
are but infinitesimal drops in the
great department, yet the aggregate
of the service performed by this de-
partment is remarkable.
BY the report of the department ii
is shown that 100000 sheep have
been dipped for scab by the depart
ment in the past year. This is the
greatest number ever handled by the
department and has increased from
672.944 in 1899, by rapid strides to
the enormous total of the past year.
The number of cattle inspected for
mango by the department IN the past
year was over 100000 and the
number of dippings of cattle reached
563.394 head. The number OF
horses inspected for mango was 49,
971. The department cleaned and
disinfected 29,S97 stock cars in max
ing them ready for interstate ship
ments.
The report of the secretary of agri'
culture says that the work of the bu'
reau of animal industry has succeed
ed in Kidding several badly infected
states Of sheep scab and has reduced
the percentage of scab perceptibly II
every state in which that disease i
found. The percentage Of cure
through the clippings of 100000
head of sheep of which strict record
were kept, was 1886 per cent.

]. w. Maloney, cashier of the PEN
dleton Savings bank, has been ap-
pointed as a member of the local
school board to take the place made
vacant by the resignation of Judge
T. G. Haley. The appointment was
made by Chairman Lee Teutsch at q
meeting of the board last evening,
and the selection was Immediately
confirmed by the remainder of the
board.
The resignation of Mr.. HALEY as a
member of the board has been on
file for some time. but its acceptance
was withheld until a successor could
be decided upon. 1t is presumed
Judge HALEY severed his connection
because he is intending to take up the
practice of law in Portland when his
term upon the supreme bench expires.
"In selecting a man for the va
cancy l was influenced to choose Mr..
Maloney," said Lee Teutsch last eve
ming, "by the fact that he is interested
in the welfare of the schools through
having boys attending the same. and
is also loyal to the public school sys-
tenn. He believes that our high
school course should be sufficient to
furnish a. proper education for most
pupils"
Mr.. Maloney has accepted the honor
conferred upon him and hereafter
will serve with the board in the man
agement of the city's schools.
Tax Meeting December ~.
At the meeting of the board last
evening the proposition of revenue
for the coming year was also dis
cussed and a report from Clerk Bick-
ers upon the financial condition of
the schools was read. According to
Chairman Teutsch it was not decided
definitely what levy to ask for, but he
believes the tax needed will be about
the same as that voted last year.

came to Spain in 1876 at the age OF
35, and contrived to enter the Madrid
police force disguised as man.
She married there and pretended
that her wife's child was her own
son. She removed to Seville. still
serving as a policeman, and was en-
gagged there as cook and orderly at
the governors palace at the old con-
vent of San Pablo. which was burned
last July. She served seven success
i've governors, and only lost her sit
uation through the fire, the governor
removing to a hotel.
In consequence of the discovery OF
her sex she has been discharged from
the police without the pension due
to her and is now a helpless cripple
and ia great distress. She was found
in a miserable room sitting in
broken chair facing a large image OF
Christ, the only treasure she has left
She said that her wife died two years

long, she replied that she always

resource.
She was speechless with gratitude
for small gift of money and then
turned in an ecstasy of thanks to the
