est Story about Senator Pet
: of Alabama is of how he was
econ with vertigo some time, ago
While working on a law case in his
Alabama office. He recovered in a
few minutes and his clerk said he
was going to send for a doctor. "All
right" said the oc%togenarian. but
don't get more than one" When the
doctor arrived the senator said: You
are the only doctor here, are you?
You're sure there's only one Of you?"
"Oh, yes, SENATOR" said the physi-
clan, who thought the old gentleman
had some confidential comm %lnication
to make. I'm mighty glad Of it."
the senator said, with a sigh Of relief.

LARGE CONSUMPTION OF EGGS IN
LARAMIE NOTED AT LITER
AIRY CLUB MEETING.
Sum Spent at Present Time for This
Commodity Fixed at Fifty Thou
sand a Year and Suggestion Made
That Much Of This Could Be Kept
Here With Proper Methods.

At the meeting last night of the
Laramie Literary club at the Carnegie
library, the matter was brought up CT
the discovery in this city Of a typical
case Of bovine tuberculosis, and a reso-
luton was passed to the effect that
it would be for the safety of the citi-
zens of Laramie that the matter be
looked into by the proper authorities,
with a view to the examination of all
Of the milk COWS used here, and a com
mittee consisting of Prof. Herbert Now
ell, DR.. Arthur Whitehouse and N. E..
Corthell was appointed to take the mat.
ter up.
Large Sum Spent for Eggs.
In the discussion Of the commercial
prosperity of the county the fact was
brought out that this city at the pres
ent time spends no less than $50, 900 a
year upon eggs, and the opinion was
expressed that much of that money
could be kept at home by the applica-
tion of scientific methods of poultry
management.
Prof. NOVEL; In the Chair.
The meeting was called to order by
Vice Presiden. Ross Moudy, who ap-
pointed Prof. Herbert NOVEL; to the
chair and DR.. Arthur Whitehouse to
act as critic.
Figures on Laramie imports.

Among the statistics gathered were
those showing that Laramie annually
imports 5000 cases of eggs valued at
$4,000; 10000 pounds Of poultry val.
ued at $500; 81 5000 pounds Of butter
valued at $4,000; five carloads of cab

ton, that OF exports, Morris Corthell
showed that in spite Of the shutting
down of the soap, glass and soda
works, there has been a very general
and decided increase of the exports
from this city during the past six years
and that the increase has been more
marked during the past two years.
The cattle business has been practi-
cally at a %standstill but the sheep and
wool business has increased greatly
and there has also been a great in
crea in the number of carloads Of
limestone and plaster shipped. The
Acme Plaster mills at the present time
have more orders than the plant can
attend to working night and day, while
the new Overland plant, which en-
ploys from twelve to fifteen men, is al
tend to working days only. The rolling
mills employ from fifty to one hundred
men and the export is increasing,
while the output of the tie plant is to
be increased by one-third this summer.

Farm Products Discussed.
The discussion which followed turn
ed chiefly upon the egg, poultry and
creamery outlook. Several members
of the club were of the opinion that
such things could not be made to pay
here as they had been tried in the past
and found unsatisfactory. This con
tention was taken up by others who
said that conditions in this country
have changed 80 radically in the past
few years and will change so much in
the future that no n can say what

intelligent management.
The tuberculosis Case.
Requested to speak upon the tuber-
colosis Ease discovered here a few days
ago in a milk COW, DR.. Whitehouse
said that the cattle here had always
been considered free from the dreaded
scourge but that lately a test made up
or a milk cow, which had been born
in this city and which had never been
out of the city except for one year
when she was turned out to grass up.
on a ranch nearby, developed the
startling fact that she was afflicted
with a genuine case Of tuberculosis.
How the disease was contracted 1t is
impossible to say but the situation .s
deserving of serious and immediate at
tention in-as-much as the disease once
established will be found impossible
of eradication.
Is Most Fatal Type.
In answer to questions, DR.. White
house said that bovine tuberculosis is
considered by scientific men to be
more fatal to the human rae than the
human form, in spite Of the fact that
the disease was probably communicat-
ed to the animals by man. Physicians
In this city had stated to him that in
several cases Of infant mortality they
had suspected tuberculosis of the bo-
vine type. The matter Of how to
eradicate the disease In its initial
stages was discussed as was the prop.
