WAR NATION, DEAD
Woman Who Organized Hospital
Corps of Confederate Army, a
Native of Hiawatha, Ca, Sue
cumbs in Denver, Col.

DENVER, Col, Nov. s.-Mrs. Ella Pal
mer, who organized the hospital corps of
the Confederate army of the Tennessee
and remained at it's head until the close
of the civil war, died in a sanitarium
at Boulder yesterday. aged 50 years.
Death was due to paralysis. During the
war. Mrs. Palmer travelled with the Con-
federate divisions Of Generals Johnson.
Hood, Beauregard and Wilson and she
was present at many Of the noted battles
in which those leaders participated.
Mrs. Palmer was born in North Caro-
lima, but spent her girlhood in Hiawatha,
Ca. Her husband fought in the Mexican
war. He died before the civil war broke
out and Mrs. Palmer was left with one
child. She was living at Chattanooga,
Tenn, when the sick and wounded Con-
federate soldiers were being brought in
from the front and their woeful lack OF
proper attention appealed to her and led
her to begin organizing a systematic hos
pital corps. Her official title was that OF
matron and her status in the army was
the same as an enlisted soldier.
Mrs. Palmer came to Colorado rs years
ago. Her daughter, who still lives in this
city, is the wife of former Supreme JUS
tice Charles d. Hoyt.
Several years ago Mrs. Palmer became
in mining and while on pros
pecting trip discovered a valuable soda
mine in this state. She Immediately
began studying assaying and was con-
sidered an expert on ore.

Carbon bisulphfde when used for the
destruction OF the grain weevi1 is gen.
orally evaporated in open vessels which
will hold from one-quarter to one-half
pound each, but no water is used with
the bisulphide. The treatment is al
ways much more effective II the grain
can be put in a tight tin or box. When
the grain can be put in comparatively
close receptacle, a pound 20 pound and
half OF bisulphide should be SUM-
cient TO treat a ton or grain. Where
the corn is piled in a comparatively
open space double this amount would
probably have TO be used. The grain
should be subject to the treatment for
at least "a hours. but II II IL exposed
longer Il viii be better, though the
treatment should not ex$nd beyond SO
hours, as there is danger Of impairing
the terminating power. Corn stored in
the shuck would have TO be treated for
longer time and more frequently than
that from which the shucks have been
removed. We would think you would
have to repeat the treatment, using
double the amount suggested at least
six weeks after the first treatment. The
persistent treatment OF the grain with
carbon bisulphide need not impair its
value in the least and viii give you
protection from the weevil.

We would suggest that you feed your

Distemper is caused apparently by a
specific germ and animals contract IT
from coming in contact with other ami
mails affected with the disease. The first
symptoms generally are a chill followed
by a high fever. There is a discharge
Of water mucous from the nose and eyes,
sometimes becoming very profuse. The
nervous system is also affected, and
there is jerking Of the head and twitching
Of tn emuscles. Sometimes there is a con-
stipation or there may be severe diar-
rhoea. This trouble lasts from ten to
30 days, and comparatively little medicine
can be used in the treatment Of IT to ad-
vantage. The treatment should be d.
rected towards making the animal thor
oughly comfortable and keeping up the
strength by liberal feeding. When the
trouble first occurs a dose of castor oil
and boric acid may be given every six
hours, after which a tonic of quinine may
be used twice daily. The stable and its
surroundings should be thoroughly disin-
fected so as to prevent the spread Of the
disease TO other animals.
We would judge that your mule is more
likely suffering from a severe cold which
has probably developed into a catarrhal
condition rather than from distemper.
according to the description given in your
letter The best treatment for either acute
or chronic catarrh is to give the animals
comfortable quarters, plenty OF laxative
food. A tonic condition powder prepared
as follows will prove useful in such
cases: Sulphate of iron, 2 ounces; nux
vomica seed, 1 ounce; gentian root, 2
ounces; nitrate Of potash, ounces. Pull
veriEe and mix together and give a tea
spoonful three times daily in the feed.
