PRIVATE CONTRACTORS WIN
BattIeship Louisiana VIII BE Ready
for Active Service Before
the Connecticut.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE present
prospects are, according TO the view now
obtaining at the Navy department, that
the battleship Connecticut being con-
structed by the government at the New
York navy yard will not only cost approx
imately 100000 more than its sister ship
the Louisiana, being built by private con-
tractors, but that the government will lose
the race which has been on since the
building of the two big ships was begun.
Just how much longer it may take to COM
plete the Connecticut than the Louisiana
depends upon the action OF congress.
According to the latest figures at the
Navy department showing the progress be-
ing made on ships under construction the
percentage Of completion reached on the
Louisiana is 1872 and the Connecticut 97l1
When congress provided for the construc-
ton Of one Of these battleships at a navy
yard it was with a view OF obtaining COM
parative figures to show whether the gov
eminent could build ships more economic
ally at the navy yards than by private con-
tract. The race between the two ships has
been watched with keen interest by naval
authorities and those interested in ship
construction, because OF the future policy
which 1t might bring about
Another factor I'm retardng the work on
the Connecticut has been the curtsilment
in the working force at the New York
yard made necessary by the lack of funds
The force there was cut down from 1000
to 500 thus materially reducing the force
that could be utilized on the construction
work on the Connecticut. Unless congress
shall have made provision for the Increased
cost Of the Connecticut by June I, the work
on the battleship will necessarily be sus-
pended, 1t was stated at the navy yard
today, but It is anticipated that the naval
appropriation bill will he passed before that
time. increasing the limit of cost by about
100000. II this expectation is realized
work will be commenced on the Connecti-
cut with view to placing it IN commits
sion at the earliest possible moment
II is estimated at the department that
the Louisiana will be ready for delivery to
the government I'm from four to six weeks

DANGEROUS PROCESS FOUND
wyoming Cowboy Has Chemical
which VIII Remove All Traces
oE Brands on stock.

MEET EETSE. Wye, April li.-tspecislJ
Local stockmen are greatly exercised over
the alleged discovery of Ben Harmer, a
cowpuncher OF this place. Harmer Is
known among the boys Of the OUTFIT as "the
Professor" because Of his having gradu-
ated in an eastern university. He has
always dabbled in chemistry and quite
accidentally discovered he says. a process
whereby he can remove all traces Of
brand on either cattle or horses lie stated
he stumbled onto the discovery when doc
toring a sore shoulder on workhorse, and
now AYERS he has the treatment reduced to
a science. lie says any one can apply his
dope as he calls It. and that the treat
ment requires but I'VE weeks to effectually
remove all traces Of the branding iron. In
proof Of this he exhibited here this week
well known saddle horse he purchased
from the NJ outfit. This animal is known
to have been branded with an NJ and also
a number on the jaw No trace Of these
brands can now be seen.
Harmer is trying to finance his discovery
among local cattle and horsemen. lie
wants to manufacture this dope and sell
II to horsemen. II is well known that
many fine animals shipped from the range
countries are sold at a comparatively low
y
and Harmer's idea is to buy this sort Of
stock. remove the brands and then market
the stun at fancy prices. Failing in this.
he will go to the big horse markets Of the
east and endeavor to finance the scheme or
sell his secret.
Men OF experience on the range are very
slow to believe in Harmer's discovery, and
are exceedingly dubious as to Its value
to the stock industry. In the hands Of
stock rustlers It would prove a dangerous
and costly discovery, as these operators
would have ample time during the summer
months to defdce brands from hundreds OF
head of both cattle and horses. Local
horsemen see a chance to realize larger
prices for their best stun, II Harmers
dope will remove the brands he says.
but are with the cattlemen in the matter
Of being fearful Of results should the
rustlers commence its use.

DIES MONIES. April ll.-(Speciall One
of the first things that the state Board OF
Control will do as soon as John I. Hamil-
ton takes his position on the board the
middle Of this month will be the selec-
ton OF the site FOR the tuberculosis sani-
tariuln, the beginning for which was made
by the legislature in the $4,000 appropria-
ton. There are now six locations in view
for the institution and Iowa City seems
to have the lead. The legislature dele
gated the State Board of Control to select
the site and erect the buildings, az the
institution will be under It's control after
opened. The board has laid down certain
requirements for the site. IL must have
at least 100 acres of land and more II
possible The land must be in easy access
TO some city, on an interurbsn railroad u
possible and must have some timber on
the land and must have an abundance OF
good water. Iowa City is making an eff
fort to get the institution located near that
place in order that the medical students
may have the advantages from studying
the treatment of patients.
Hon. John Cownie Of the State Board OF
Control and United States crop reporter
for Iowa today invited In all the news
per men I'm the city to the State Board
of Control rooms to see the test OF seed
corn of the thirteen state institutions. Mr.
COwnie severely criticised the college meth
DDS Of testing seed corn, and In his LETT
tor OF invitation to the newspapers and In
is talk said there had been written by
newspapers and agricultural Journals many
articles about seed corn. the greater part
of them not only misleading and erroneous
but pernicious In the extreme. These ar
tiCles have been written by people abso
lutely ignorant of the subject and have
done and are still doing incRlculable dTn
age to the agricultural interests OF car
state, as there are many farmers giving
heed to these erroneous teachings" Today
Mr.. Cuwnie showed the results Of his test
there having been planted nifty grains
in each OF thirteen boxes and nifty stake
were the result in each case Mr.. Cownis
declares that the statement ~ the State
college at Ames that OF 500 tests OF seed
corn sent in by farmers of the state but
81 per cent was acceptable seed Is evidence
that the teaching of the State college IL
wrong as to the selection Of seed. HS
then shows his own results Of 100 pei
cent growth and said today that there waI
not the slightest reason why every farmer
should not have a perfect stand of corn
every year il he would follow the proper
methods of selecting his corn in the fall
and preserving it in a room srtihcially
