mittee on exhibits for the Seattle fair
offered series Of prizes 81 for the
first and 81 for the second, for the
best collection ofefield products pre-
scented the committee for exhibition
at the fair. In addition to the farm
ers being loyal in the desire to make
a good exhibit for Bingham county,
the prizes created friendly rivalry
and more care was exercised in select
ing the exhibits. Yesterday Messrs.
Taylor, Smith and Carruth, the com
mitteemen, met to pass on the various
collections of grain and other pro-
ducts, and the following prizes were
awarded:
Ludwig Martin was given first
prize for alfalfa, which measured 6
feet, 3 inches; first for red top, she'll
ed barley and sheaf barley; second
for timothy.
I, E. McCowin received first, tim
othy; second for red top, and second
for wheat and oats.
G. Anderson of Shelley first for
sheaf wheat
Ralph Edmunds received first for
sheaf oats.
J. H. Beasley received first for
shelled oats.
Mrs. w. A. Tyler received first for
green corn, and the sample was one
OF the finest ever seen in this state.
It measured liz feet high, and was
Grated SO that 1t would not be dam
aged.
No shelled wheat was shown.
Green vegetables, honey and other
products were shown, but no prizes
We're offered for those exhibits, and

81, 1850 and represents the amount
paid by the city to Mrs. Eliza Neu-
mann in settlement of a judgment rem
dered by the district court in case
brought to recover damages for injur-

hole in the sidewalk in front of what
was then Mrs. Boesch's building.
The attorneys for Mrs. Boesch who
will argue the motion for the setting
aside of the summons service and
therefor the setting aside of the judg-

in their contention an entirely new
case will have to be started.
The city's interests will be looked
after by Albert Pfaender and City At

"A hearing was to have been had in
the matter Monday, but was put off
until the 22nd to give the city chance
to secure affidavits.

BINGHAM BROS. LOSE ELEVATOR
Explosion Causes Destruction of
their Property at Gilfillan.

The elevator owned by Bingham
Bros. at Gillian was completely de-
stroyed by fire last Friday, the loss to
the owners amounting to approximate
5ly 81 800.
The fire was caused by a gasoline
explosion. The wheat buyer had dis
covered leak in the engine-f eeding
tank which was embed ed in the ground
outside Of the building and while he
was engaged in pumping out the con-
tents stander-by raped his pipe
against the side of the building to re-
move the ashes and a spark few into
the tank. In an instant there was an
explosion and fire spread rapidly to
all parts of the building.
Mr.. Kuowlton, the wheat buyer, was
burned badly about the arms and face.

SCHEME IN AID Of GOOD ROADS
NicoIIet County Statesman Pro-
poses a State Tax Levy Of
One. Fourth Mill.

A bill, introduced in the house by
that indefatigable champion OF good
roads, Representative Ole Peterson of
Nicollet county, proposes an amend
ment to the constitution which will
permit of an addition to the state
road and bridge fund through the
levying of a state tax not to exceed in
any one year one-fourth of one mill.
No county is to receive in any year
more than three per cent Of the total
fund provided, and not more than one
half of the cost of constructing any
road or bridge is to be paid by the
state.

FAIR ASSOCIATIONS ANNUAL
tsecretary's Report Shows that
Last Years Venture Was a
Successful One, Financially.
Decision Reached to Erect New
Buildings this Year at a Cost of
$4,000 to $4,000.

The Brown County Agricultural
Society held it's annual. meeting at
Schell's hall Wednesday evening, a
goodly number of the stockholders
being present.
Besides the election of officers the
most important business transacted
was that of deciding to erect buildings
during the summer to take the place
eAof the one destroyed by a tornado
about two years ago. Difference of
opinion prevailed as to the style of
buildings to be erected, but on the
question of making the improvement
this year there was absolutely no
dissension. A building committee
win therefore be appointed by Presi-
dent Crone and as soon as this com
mittee has agreed upon plans it is
expected that the work of construction
q will be commenced. The estimated
cost of the buildings is between $4,000
and SIS, 600.
~ The secretary's report shows that
the society now has debt of only
5000 and the directors feel, therefore,
that they are in position to take
important steps towards progress.
Besides, they have hopes that Repre-
sentative Pfaender will be successful
in securing substantial appropria-
tion from the Legislature in reimburse
ment of the society's loss of two years
ago.
Last year the society's receipts
amounted to $2,627.66. This sum was
realized from the following sources:
Sale of stock. 500; county aid, 5000:
state aid, S4l9.7O; entrance fees and
privileges, s2O7 So; city aid, 5000:
y donated premiums and incidentals,

The disbursements figured up 81, 5Ss
of which sS3.77 went for advertising,
s676.75 for racing premiums, 1892. "a
for other premiums, S345 for music
and other attractions and the balance

The suppression Of the disease, hog
cholera, problem which is recognized
as one of great Importance to the ag-
ricultural interests of the United
States, has received considerable at
tention during the last 20 years. At
the present time few problems are as
Intimately associated with the agri-
cultural economy as that which is re-
lated to the practical eradication of
this animal disease.
In 1855 DIR. Theobald Smith and DR..
d. e. Salmon isolated Bacillus cholera
suis and described that organism as
the specific cause of hog cholera. Since
that time continuous line of investi-
CATION has been conducted by the bu-
reau of animal industry, United States
department of agriculture, for the pur-
pose of discovering some protective In.
oculation or treatment against the
disease. During the past few years sew
eral investigators, both in Europe and
The Elbert County tribune., 1909-04-08

America, have been actively engaged
in this study. In 1903 the bureau Of
animal industry published prelim-
mary report in which 1t was stated
that 1t was possible to transmit hog
cholera to healthy swine by injecting
the filtered serum of hogs suffering
from cholera. Psychological exam
fnation proved the absence in this fl
tered material OF B. cholera suis or
other bacteria capable of growing on
ordinary culture media. Since the ap-
pearance of the above report the inves-
legations of the bureau of animal In
dustry. as well as the results of ex-
tensive work in other laboratories,
have confirmed the belief that Bacillus
cholera suis is not the specific cause
of hog cholera, or, more cautiously
stated. that Bacillus cholera suis is not
the Geological factor in all forms of
hog cholera.
From the results which have thus far
been obtained in the present work of
investigation and from those of other
Investigators the following conclusions
seem warranted:
Bacillus cholera suis is not the etio-
logical factor In all forms of hog
cholera.
Bacillus cholera suis is possibly a
variety of the common intestinal para

sitic organism. Bacillus coli com
munis.
The specific cause of the "filterable
virus form" of hog cholera appears to
be some living organism, possibly ul-
tra-microscopic, possibly capable Of
passing through fine porcelain filter
in some disintegrated state.
The filterable virus of hog cholera
