Will Resist the Ordinance.

1t is expected that there will be sew
eral arrests today of the four milkmen
of the town and those who supply part
of the milk they sell in an effort to
enforce the ordinance passed this spring
to regul ate the inspection of diaries
and dairy herds. The cases are being
courted by the milkmen for the pur-
pose of testing the legality of the or
dlnance, and they must have consider
able confidence in their ultimate yicto-
ry for they have so far rejected the
suggestion that one test case be ar
ranged for, and choose to have the city
bring suit against all offenders. That
the mayor will sustain the ordinance
and impose fines is expected, but the
milkmen will appeal their cases to the
supreme court is necessary.
The contention of the milkmen is
that early in the spring, even before
the passage of the ordinance, they SUBJ
Jected their herds to the tuberculin
test required by the ordinance, but now
refuse to allow the test to be applied
to cows added to their herds since that
time, on the grounds that the tubercu
lin test is a damage to their herds,
that it is not an accurate test for tu-
berculosis, and that the ordinance re-
quiring such test has no warrant in
the state statutes.
The milkmen claim to have no quar-
rell with the other provisions of the or
dinance regarding purity, cleanliness
or health of animals.
In this connection we append clip
ping from the Des Moines Register of
last Friday concerning the action to be
taken by the state board of health in
regard to more rigid inspection of
milk to prevent its use from cows af-
fiicted with tuberculosis. The item is
as follows:
1.-TWO things which are closely related,
will receive the maximum attention of
the state board of health. One is milk.
the other tuberculosis.
After the new rules are promulgated,
the local boards of health will have
something to do. 1t will be up to them
to inspect dairies and see that milk
served locally is not taken from COWS
that have tuberculosis.
Milk inspection in Iowa has meant
the examination of milk to determine
the extent of the butter fat in the
lacteal fluid. Hereafter it will mean
more. The board of health has de-
termined on crusade against ,tubercu-
losis. It is costing $500 lives every
year in Iowa, It's commhnicability
from cows toman has been satisfac-
tortorily demonstrated.
And on the main question the board
will go after the local authorities hard.
They will be directed specifically as to
what to do, besides protecting the milk
supply, to save the people from the
spread of the white plague. 1t is the
intention of the state board to bear
down hard in this subject.
Slaughterhouse and meat supply in
spection by the authorities will follow

School Tax Levy Reduced.

the Independent District of Cresco.
held last Tuesday evening, among other
business transacted was the approval
OF the Treasurer's report of the school
finances for the school year ending July
LIST, and the levying of taxes for the
next year.
The Treasurer's report showed very
satisfactory condition of the different
funds considering the extra expense
the district has been to in fitting up
the school grounds, laying walks and
various other expenses made necessary
by the recent building operations. The
condition of the various funds is as fol-
lows:
| TEACHERS FUND:
Amount on hand, July /, 1906 s 247 63

| Paid out for interest on bonds 1922 so
f2id out on school orders. rs.............. 1900 co
oVerdrawn. ............ 4S6 81
Two of the above items need expla-
nation. The amount of $25OO paid out
on bonds cleared up the last of the old
bonds outstanding and leaves only the
bonds issued for the building of the
new school house. The item of $1,000
paid out on school orders was for the
installing of new heating plant, clos
cts and sewerage in the Primary build
ing, improvements demanded for the
health and comfort of the pupils.

overdrawn at beginning of school
year. ........................S 343 4S

The expenditures in this fund were
extraordinarily heavy this year on ac-
count of expense of fitting up the new
manual training room in basement of
the new building, grading the lawn and
laying new cement walks.
The board in lexying the taxes this
year have reduced the amount to be
raised by taxation total of $4,000 as
is shown by the following figures, COM
pared with the levy for the present
year:
Teachers Fund ............ 81, ,oOo. 49,. ;. 80 900
Contingent. 4,5o0. $500
School House.. 1000. \. 1900
The amount needed for the contin-
gent fund was increased $1,000 to en-
able the board to take up the necessary
overdraft of this year. The school
house fund levy was dropped $1,000 as
no bonds become due until 1910, and all
that is necessary for this fund at pres
ent is to provide for the payment of
interest on the bonds and perhaps ac-
cumulate small surplus to be applied
later on the payment of the bonds.
An interesting fact brought out in the
secretary's report was that an equal
number of males and females, 4O1 of
each sex, drew public money this year
in the district, which was little less
in number than for the year previous.
