Quoted from above the top OF the
stable floor on the outside through
the wall and admitted into the stable
near the ceiling but in such a manner,
as to prevent draughts Whenever,
on opening the stable door in the
morning steam comes out, your stable
needs ventilation This steam is
simply air saturated with moisture
or the perspiration of the animal.
This vapor- saturated air chills the
cattle. There is quite as much
moisture when warmed up, in a stable
as there is when it appears in steam
when coming in contact with the cold
air outside. Cattle then require more
feed than if kept dry by the exhaus-
ton of the impure air within the
stable, and the admission of pure cool
air from the outside. There is an
other reason why the stable should
be thoroughly ventilated, there is al
ways danger of tuberculosis among
cattle in dairy cows and breeding
stock if single individual has been
affected with the germs of tnbercu-
losis. The danger is multiplied mani
fold in the stable with deficient ven
tilation. Cattle that live in the open
air and in perfectly well ventilated
stables in any country are compare
lively free from it. 1t is only when
they are closely confined in badly VEN
tilated stables that tuberculosis be-
comes a serious menace to the live
stock.

The COMPUTATION LAW
Its Repeal Would Be a Move in the
Right Direction to Pre-
vent Fraud.

Bismarck Tribune: One of the most
Important messages that has ever been
sent to congress is that in relation to
the laws under which the public do
main in the United States is being
disposed of. With land frauds every
where, with congressman and United
States senator's being. implicated and
even sentenced to the penitentiary for
participation in timber land frauds, it
Is no wonder that man of President
Rooseyelt's strenuous temperament but
honest impulses should make the
cause the basis of strong message to
congress urging reforms in the admin
istration of the land department. He
urges a radical amendment to the
desert land act and the repeal of the
timber and stone act. He would do
away with the communication feature of
the present homestead law, which is
now being abused to such an extent
as to present opportunity for whole
sale frauds. The good features of the
present Communication law are entirely
overbalanced by the bad ones. 1t is
possible that an extension of the time
of actual residence to three years be-
4OEC pIOOl IL dllOW6u WOulu dVOIu
much of the perjury for speculative
purposes that now prevails, but 1t
would be better if this feature of the
homestead law was repealed outright.
The settler who locates upon public
lands in good faith with a view of
establishing permanent home will
not, as a rule, find difficulty in receiv-
ing assistance on credit if necessary,
in the community in which he lives.
AS the law now operates it tempts
speculation and results in homeless
tracts Of lands. 1t deprives the honest
home builder of an opportunity to draw
that wealth from the ground that will
bring happiness and contentment. The
land laws should be administered in
the interest of the actual settler in
stead of the milliner, the preacher,
the bookkeeper or the family man in
the interest of pure speculation.

MAJOR ON THE WARPATH
Steele County Man Says Old Line Ele.
vators Tried to Control the
Valley City Meeting.

Some improvement is being shown In
the car shortage situation, according to
o. G. Major of Hope, who arrived in
Fargo from Valley City, where he at
tended the meeting of the independ-
ent elevator men. Mr., Major says
that from the reports which he is re-
Eceiving he believes the railroads are
making greater efforts to relieve the
present conditions and especially to
avert the danger of a fuel famine.
Mr.. Major came to Fargo for the
purpose of making arrangements for
the meeting Of the independent ele-
vator men which is to be held here
on Jan. 16. Owing to the fact that the
elevator men were refused a place on
the programme of the Tri-state Grain
Growers association, it has been
necessary to arrange a special meeting.
At first it was thought the commercial
club rooms would be used but it has
been decided that they would be too
small and a larger auditorium will be
procured.
In reference to the difficulty which
is being experienced in arranging for
the meeting of the elevator men, Mr..
Major reiterated the statement which
he made at Valley City charging that
those who have in charge the arrange
ments for the Tri-state Grain Grow
ers' convention, including Mayor J. A.
Johnson, are discriminating against the
Independent elevator men and in favor
of the old line elevators by refusing
the independents a, place on the assoc
citation programme.
II have no wish to qualify my
statement in the least" he said, "for
have had enough experience
SO that / am convinced that is the
reason we are mot to be allowed to
take part in the Tri-state meeting.
Sat Valley City yesterday an eff
fort was made by the representatives
of the railroads and the old time ele-
vator men to gain control of the meet
ing. Had this been successful it
would have resulted in keeping the as
from that which is to be
They would thus have been pitted
against each other, and divided they
could have done little towards better
ing grain shipment conditions.
"The railroad men and old line ele-
vator men did not succeed in their eff
forts, however, and the organization
formed at Valley City will amalgamate
with and become a part of that which
is to be formed by the independent
elevator men and shippers from all
over the state at theCmeeting here in
January
Mr.. Major testified Monday before
the interstate commerce commission in
the coal shortage hearing in Mime
apolis Monday and he says that the
commission has an immense pile of
complaints received from various parts
of the northwest, chiefly from North
Dakota.

that Explosion in SD. Peter,s.

Hartford. Conn. Courant: Those
who read the news of the day-and re
member it for week-have probably
wondered why the so-called bomb ex-
plosion in ST. Peters at Rome was al
lowed to drop out of public notice. We
pointed out at the time that the bomb
was so constructed as to produce
merely noise and smoke. and the gem
eral opinion now is that it was fake
from beginning to end. Some think the
design was to show how easy 1t would
be to explode real bomb in the great
church Of Rome, while others trace
the thing to the Roman police, who de-
sired to awaken the general police SER
vice to sense of their responsibility
for the safety of King George of Greece
during his then approaching visit to
the king of Italy and the pope.

THE most remarkable feature of the
water question now under considera-

Of Fargo's enterprise, and dire necessi-
ties in this particular, nothing has yet
been done to rescue its threatened
people from a Red river epidemic on
the one hand and a plague of ruined
kidneys on the other from drinking
artesian water" says ex- Mayor Sweet.
During my term as mayor" he con-
tinued, this water question arose and
was widely discussed--and in an en-
deayor to secure action in the matter,
/ called on the medical profession of
the city for advice and also sought ex-
pert advice all over the United States.
The physicians of Fargo at that time,
/ think quite unanimously condemned

Of solids as to be ruinous to the kid
neys of those using it for consid-
cradle length of time, while the Red
river water was extolled as a water of
healthful properties, provided filtra-
ton could remove possible germs. At
that time, among the various plans to
secure pure water, the mechanical FL
tration process was advanced and
took quite extensive measures to inves-
tigate its merits, one of which was
by communication with over a hum
dred cities in all parts of the United
States, where the method was in USE
1 received perhaps fifty replies, al
most all of them speaking favorably
of the method, and some of them
giving details as TO the remarkable
diminution of typhoid fever after in
stalling the system.
"The cost of installing a plant of
about 100000 gallons per day was
about $4,000, but since that time we
have put in a new settling basin which
was one of the items of the cost. The
cost of operating was nearly nominal,
and the nature of construction was
such as to easily permit of any ex-
pansion as the cost grew. 1t was also
ascertained that the cost for water in
Fargo outside of water taxes, would
pay for the system in one year-in
other words, the plant would cost moth
ing to INSTALL
Perhaps 1t is not possible to remove
the prejudice entertained against the
river water, but nevertheless, it is a
scientific fact that dirt is only matter
out of place and that from the dew
drops on the rose to the rains of
heaven, all water at one. time or an
other, has been associated with filth
unspeakable, and is only rendered pure
by natural or chemical processes
similar to this filtration, the test Of
which any one can try at home with

Il have got lot of correspondence
received from various city authorities
at that time bearing on the subject
and it is of course at the service Of
the city.
Between the polywogs in the river
water and powdered isinglass in the
artesian water, Fargo is in a condition
to require the earnest attention of the
authorities"

Cured to the reader that tuberculosis

as human consumption is a house dis

1t is not necessarily a stable disease
The disease is dangerous to the COW
and the house to the man only when
deficient in ventilation. While pure
air with nutritious food is the best
cure for consumption in man, it is
also the best prevention and cure for
the same disease in the COW. An
essential for a cold country is good

as important as protection from the
cold. Every stable should therefore
make provision for the exhaustion OF

must have If we would economize, pine

How should we ventilate the stable?
The simplest way is to have a tightly
fitting box reaching from the VEN
tilator with which every stable or barn
should be equipped, down to within
six inches of the floor and open at the
bottom. The animal heat warns up
the air in the stable and it naturally
