ARE
PROSPEROUS.
Extension of Gas and Electricity
Into the Country Means
Much to Them.

Could a farmer of the past genera
ton behold the home of the up-to-
date Jersey farmer of today, he
would probably think hat some
magic change had affected agricul-
tural life. The modern Jersey farm
er is by no means a "rube." He is a
prosperous Individual, generally alert
and businesslike, and his home is
stocked with the latest improvements
after the fashion of a house in a
large city.
The Jersey farmer is no longer Sc
cluded from the world at large. In
his house stands the telephone, by
means of which he can keep posted
on market prices all the time. BY
calling up Central in the morning he
is enabled to get the official weather
bulletin hours before a newspaper
could reach him, and through this
mean he often saves hundreds OF
dollars on his crops.
No longer does the farmers wife
dread the idea of making hat both
ersome fire in the kitchen range in
the morning. She simply goes into
the kitchen, lights her gas stove, and
sets the pots on to boil. Gas mains
run between the various cities of the
state, and the formers in between
have gas furnished to them, for cook
ing, lighting, and even for heating,
at the same rates as those enjoyer by
the neighboring towns. Even way
out in the country districts in the
southern part of the state n may
find an astonishing number in farm
houses in which gas is the only fuel
used for cooking.
In the sauna mannpr tho farmer
usese electricity to light his house
and even his barns and stables. This
would have seemed almost an impos-
sible luxury to the farmer a few
years ago, but with it's increasing
cheapness, electric current has come
within the range of the farmers
purse. To strangers it is an odd
sight to see the electric light wires
along a country road with NJ houses
in sight. Inventors declare that the
time is not far distant when the
farmer will do his milking, his
churning and most of his farm work
by electricity. The electric push-but-
ton will succeed the farmland.
In the farmers kitchen can be
found all the latest patent devices to
make housekeeping easy. These
things give the farmers wife of today
much more time for social duties and
the care and education of her chill
dren than her mother cver thought
of having. The farmer himself reads
scientific works on agriculture and
the latest government farming bullet
ms may be found on his table.
The prosperous truck farmers of
North Jersey even have their
automobiles. One of these men said
to a friend the other day:
when | was a boy | thought a
great deal about Horace Greeley's
injunction to go west. But / stuck
to Jersey, and | have found the old
state good enough for me. New
York is right at our door waiting to
gobble up all the market truck w
can produce, and with plenty of
money to pay for 1t.
You see | own my OWN motor car.
| expect that some day my son will
be able to travel in his own airship."

MATTHIAS HUCK DEAD
Pioneer Shoe Dealer of the City
Died Suddenly at His Home
on Orange Street
DIED FROM HEART FAILURE

Matthias Huck, dean of the business
men of Kenosha, and a resident of
this city for more than fifty-seveu
years, died at his home on Orange
street Wednesday. Death came
without warning. Mr.. Huck had
been at the store in the morning and
had been in usual health when he re-
turned to his home for dinner. He
had eaten dinner and was pre- pairing
to return to the store when he dropped
over dead.
The death Of NJ. Huck marks the
passing of a man who has been active

.ests of the city for more than half a
century. Few men were better known

New York for two years and then
came west and reached Kenosha on
June q, 1852.
In 1858 he went into the shoe BUSH
ness in the city of Kenosha with
James Robinson and John Friss as
partners. He purchased the interest
of the two partners two years later
and since that time the sign of NJ.

spicuous one in Kenosla. In 1854
Mr.. Huck was married to Miss Mary
A. Tetard in Kenosha.

FAILED TO REPORT
State Health Department Finds Few
Cases of tuberculosis Reported

state Health Department Finds Few
Cases of Tuberculosis Reported
In the quarterly report of the state
board of health, DIR. C. A. Harper
says that 1872 cases of tuberculosis
were reported TO that office in July.
August and September This is less
than the number reported during the
second quarter and according TO DR..
Harper indicates the lax;ty of physi-
clans to report to the local health Of
tlcer. One hundred and fifteen deaths
were reported, which is less than dur
ing the previous period.
Regarding diphtheria the report
says:
During the months of July. Aug
ust and September, 202 cases of diph-
liberia were reported with II deaths.
This gives a fatality rate of per
cent, which is considered less than
that recorded for the months of April.
May and June. That this disease
should be so prevalent during the
summer, and at a time when the
schools are not in session, is inexcusa-
bic. Seventy -four cases of scarlet
fever with two deaths were reported
for the quarter just closed.
DR.. Harper says in regard to typhoid
fever and other diseases:
"Our records show that thirty-five
places have been afflicted with typhoid
fever in more or less epidemic form.
One hundred and eighty-nine deaths
were reported. The fatality rate OF
10 per cent is considerably less than
for the second quarter.
"The popular. yet erroneous, belief
in the advisa bility of having measles
while young should be discouraged
wherever found. Whooping cough is
simply disease of early childhood
and as great precaution should be
taken against. contracting this disease
during the first two or three years of
life as would be exercised in protect
ing the little ones from diphtheria or
scarlet fever. The records show that
nearly all deaths from whooping
cough are under two years of age.
Measles, undoubtedly, plays a great
er role in the death rate of the state
than the face. of the records show.
