TESTS OVER 10000 ANin.ALS.
Agricultural Experiment Station Re-

HStS SdiAAt dt ENP@t iiiiGHe SldAiSh FsS~
duces Plague.
Through the testing of 1888 ami
ing carried on by the agricultural ex-
pertinent station of the University Of
Wisconsin, in cooperation with the
state live stock sanitary board, tuber-
cJlosis among Wisconsin live stock
has been greatly reduced. Though the
tests were begun in 1892, over $4,000
were made in the past three years
during which time the number of ami
mails reacting to the tuberculin was
reduced from 1T per cent to Sc pei
cent of those tested. In 1906 about Il
per cent of the animals tested were
found to be infected, and in 1908 less
than 4 per cent had the disease.
The most common way in which
herds become infected is through the
purchase of diseased animals. Of 1863
u0IuS lOuuu u De Infected ldSt year
263, or nearly three-fourths, acquired
the disease in that manner. These
facts emphasize the necessity for a
law requiring a clean bill of health
to accompany sales, as well as law
compelling pasteurization of factory
by-products. Dairymen and breeders
can keep their herds free from the
disease only by testing and removing
the infected animals and then purchas-
ing only those which have been tested
and proven sound.
The educational campaign against
bovine tuberculosis has been conduct
ed by means of addresses, printed bull
letins and post-mortem demonstra-
tions. The success of the demonstra-
tons in convincing thousands Of
farmers of the necessity of tuberculin
tests and the removal of diseased cat
tie from herds is shown in new bull
letin, No. IT'S, by DR.. H. l.. Russell, di-
rector of the agricultural experiment
station, and Conrad Hoffman, instruct
or in bacteriology at the university,
just issued by the station.

STUDENTS BUILD ENGINES.
Marine and Motor Cycle Engines Are
Made in Wisconsin "U."

| Made in Wisconsin "U."
Fourteen gasoline engines of a new
model, in designs suited to marine
and motor cycle use, are being built
by students in the college of engineer
| ing at the University of Wisconsin as
a part of their practical work in ma
chine construction. The engines,
which will be the property of the stu
dents upon completion, were made
from new models designed by Paul
Sladky, instructor in mechanical prac-
tice, and include seven single and four
double-cylinder marine engines for
use in launches, and two double and
one single cylinder engines for motor
cycles. Some of the engines are al
ready completed and the others will
be finished before the close of the col
lege year.
Each of the fourteen engines built
has meant about 125 hours of hard
work for the students and has given
them the actual practice in making
engines with all sorts of tools, with
the additional advantage of learning
at first hand just what are the diff
culties liable to the operation of gaso-
line engines and the methods of rem
| edying them. Mr.. Sladky designed
| special fixtures for the purpose of
| helping the boys to save time and in
| sure accuracy of construction in work
ing on the castings which they bought
for the work. By the use Of these fix
lures they were also taught the great
value of time-saving machinery.
The single-cylinder- two-cycle ma
rine engines which they built are just
| the right size for an eighteen-foot
launch. BY connecting two of the sim
gle cylinders on common crank
shaft six of the students built double
cylinder engines of about six horse
power capacity. In order to test the
marine engines under actual working
conditions in the laboratory they were
attached to a barrel of water with
propeller in it.
J. G.. Steen, superintendent of the
machine shops, under whose direction
the students have done their work,
has made a portfolio of designs of
variety of engines, built and proved
practical elsewhere, from which draw
ings and patterns will be made to give
the students in the future a variety of
engines from which to choose in plan
ming their years Work.-W.

Calendar work of the legislature so
far as the regular session of 1909 is
concerned will cease technically at 6

WAGNER WRIT DENIED.
Court Holds Senate Committee Oath
to Be Legal.

Frank T. Wagner, awaiting trial at
Madison on the charge of perjury, was
denied his release from Jail on habeas
corpus proceedings in an order issued
by Judge Stevens in the Dane county
circuit court. The contentious of Dis
trict Attorney Mason were upheld in
every particular, noticeably upon the
materiality of the evidence. The de-
cision says in part:
"Any evidence which tends to throw
light upon the means used to secure
the election is material within the
meaning of the perjury statute. One
of the material circumstances to be
proven is the payment of money. That
the testimony of the petitioner was
material to the subject under invest1-
cation by the committee is too clear
to warrant further discussion.
eff the positive testimony given be-
fore the committee at Madison was
false, the petitioner is not released
when confronted in Milwaukee with
conditions that tended to cast doubt
upon the story told, the petitioner at
tempted to modify his testimony by
saying it was his opinion or impress
sion that the facts were as stated at
Madison
The court then upholds the legality
of the Investigating committee oath
as one which lis by law authorized"
Continuing, he says:
mo constitutional right was invad-
ed VIXEN the Legislature declared it to
be perjury to give false testimony be-
fore a legislative committee. Nor is
it essential to the jurisdiction Of the
committee that it should prove that
the election was obtained by illegal or
corrupt means. 1t is perjury to give
false testimony in case where the
accused is innocent as we'll as in a
case where he is guilty."-W.

REMOVES QUACk GRASS.
Invention Which Owner Claims Will
Destroy Pest.

A farmer named Fitzpatrick, resid-
ing a few miles southeast of Hudson,
has invented a quack grass machine
which promises to rid the country OF
this pest. Fitzpatrick's machine de-
stroys the grass, roots and all, aud
his invention bids fair to transform
him from a poor farmer to very
wealthy man. Quack grass has be-
come a great foe of the farmer, and it
has been an impossibility to get rid
of it. The roots form a close network
through the ground and sap its vitali-
ty, and many fine farms have been
practically ruined by it. Fitzgeralds
machine pulverizes the ground and re-
moves every root.

GAME WARDENs oUTWITTED.
Call to Arms Sounded Over a Phone
BY a Farmers Wife.

Two game wardens recently visited
the upper Turtle lake region. At one
place they were informed there was
a key of fish down cellar. While they
were in the cellar the woman of the
house sounded the fire alarm on the
telephone, and, having secured the
attention of every one in the neigh
borhood, quietly told them the game
wardens were there.
The hint was enough. When the
wardens visited other places they
found an occasional sucker and red
horse, but not pike in the whole
neighborhood 1t is said that while
the wardens were in the cellar over q
hundred pounds of pike were taken
from a boat at the lake shore few
rods distant and hid in the brush.
