THE DANGER
OF QUARANTINE

DR.. M. E. Knowles, state vet
ernarian. has issued a warning tt
Montana sheep raisers to ac
promptly, if they wish to escape
a quarantine of the state for Liz
and leg disease.
The veterinarian said: "The
recent action of Secretary Viii.
son in quarantining several Wyo-
ming counties should be a warn
ing to Montana sheepraisers.
The sanitary commission and this
department have done all within
their power to eradicate the dis
ease, which is now confnod to
comparatively few hocks in east
ern Montana. The repression Of
the disease is therefore resting
with these few Individual own
ers. We feel that we have per-
formed valuable service in show
ing the method for curing this
disease, which is both economical
and effectice. 1t consist of one
part of nitric acid and seven
parts of water and should be ad-
mlnlStered to the afflicted ami
mails by single immersion which
will cure 80 per cent? of the
cases. The diseased animals
should be separted from the
healthy. If these directions are
carried out there will be no dan
ger of a federal quarantine,
which would work worlds of
damage to the industry. In
other words, it is up to the own
ers to clear up the situation. III
the disease is permitted to spread
the quarantine is sure to come"

TO REPORT
CROP YIELDS

| - vi NNAc%1 lCCCCl W LllS
) newspaper men of the state ask.
ing their as istance in collecting
and prin ling reports of the cror
yields in their respective COM
munities. AS we have had an
exceptional good crop this year,
this paper wishes to get an ac-
count of your crop. Let US hear
from you. The following is a
copy of the letter.
This is harvest season, and I
beg leave to ask the newspapers
OF Montana to aid in the publicity
Work the state has undertaken
by collecting and printing reports
OF crop yields in their respective
localities. Reliable information
concerning yields of crops will
demonstrate the fertility of the
Soil and indicate the returns
Which the farmer may expect to
receive from we'll directed efforts,
While the exceptional yields are
deserving of notice and serve to
advertise the locality producing
them, a more convincing argu-
ment for the man who is consid-
erlng whether or not he will
settle in Montana would be a
statement of the average returns
which grounds properly cultivat-
ed yield. Such a statement
based on reliable data, would, II
think, show that the profit per
acre to the cultivator of the soil
is greater on the average in
Montana, for the labor perform
ed and the capital invested than
1t is, on the average, anywhere
else in the United States. When
farmers are prosperous, are put
ting money in the bank and are
to the comforts of life, q
exists to which it is de-
'lrable to give the widest public
ty. The fact that newcomers
are not disappointed, but are
making good, are succeeding in !
building homes and are laying
me foundations for an indepen- {
lence, would when published,
encourage homeseekers to come

'erience of some new settlers

why NOT Pave
FORT street
Joseph Gilman Stands
Ready To Go Ahead
With Work

What's the matter with making u
respectable business thoroughfare OF
Fort street?
AT least this Is the desire OF j. a. |
Gilman, who has Tofered to effect
the metamOrphOsis by the means ol
the new bithulitic pavement which Is
now to be found upon the muchly tra''
eied streets and boulevards OF Boston,
Mass; Cincinnati, Ohio; Chicago, ILL.,;
Portland, Ore; and a most Of smaller
cities of the mainland.
Mr.. Gilman has presented the hiat'
ter of paving that portion OF Fort
street which lies In the business dis
trict of Honolulu with the new ma
terial. He told the assembled Super.
yisors last evening that there was no
question as To the durability Of this
class of road. He insisted that II was
perfectly sanitary, and afforded a sure
! footing for horses and automobiles and
that they do not skid upon roads paved
with the bithulithic compound.
| Mr.. Gilman has also informed the
: Supervisors that 1t Is intended to
erect plant In Honolulu for the pur.
pose of furnishing bithulitic payements
for the city.
I Before ordering the same he would
! like TO be assured of the opportunity
for laying IA stretch OF this pavement.
Gilman guarantees that the street
when completed will speak for Itself
and he has no fears as to- the result.
He suggested that Fort street. from
Queen to Beretania street, would be
a good place to lay the pavement. Gil
man assured the Board thai II would
be no experiment but would afford Ho
nolulu at least one beautiful 'and dur
able road.
The Supervisors have been in
formed that to lay the pavement VIII
entail a cost of about three dollars pen
square yard, allowing that the cutters
are already constructed. II Is under
stood that In the district designated
for test Oi the material there are
about 5000 square yards of surface
figuring the average width OF thC
street at thirty feet.
