THE NEVADA STATE
HYGIENIC LABORATORY

The legislature at it's recent session
enacted a law creating a state hygienic
laboratory at the university of Nevada
providing the services of a bacteriolo-
gist for the diagnosis of infectious dis
eases for the physicians and health of.
ficers of the state and for research into
the nature, cause and control of such
diseases. The administration of this
law was placed in the hands of the
board of regents.
At their meeting on May LIST the re-
gents took steps toward the organiza-
ton of this service. DIR. w. B. Mack,
professor of bacteriology at the uni
versity, was appointed director. This
action provides for the state a much
needed service and is in line with the
prevailing practice in most states at
the present time. Such laboratories are
now usually maintained at public ex-
pense, where the diagnosis of such dis
eases as d%iphtheria, typhoid and tuber-
culosis can be made without expense to
the patient.
DIR. Mack came here from Cornell
university in the fall of 1906, and his
work is favorably known to many of
the physicians of the state for whom
he has done work of this kind. He
will have a competent assistant AMI
first class service is assured. AS soon
as the organization can be completed a
circular will be issued to the health of.
%ficers, health boards and medical pro-
fession of the state announcing the
service that the laboratory is ready r.
render.

INTEREST TAKEN IN
DRY FARMING

BILLINGS, Mont, May 25.-That
the people of southwestern Kansas are
deeply interested in the work of the
Dry Farming congress is shown by the
fact that at Syracuse, Kansas, weekly
street meetings are being held at which
the gospel of dry farming is preached
by practical farmers. This idea was
conceived and is being carried out by
&. r. Hickok, editor of the Syracuse
News and a member of the executive
committee of the Dry Farming con-
gress, and Henry Block, of Syracuse, an
enthusiastic member of the congress.
These gentlemen nave started an ac-
tive campaign for the conversion of the
Sunfiower state to dry farming and are
working in the face of much prejudice
with gratifying success. While the
southwestern part of the state has seen
the success of dry farming methods
demonstrated, the balance of Kansas
is filed with doubters who must be
shown.
"You will understand our position
here,' writes Mr.. Hickok. eve have
only a narrow strip in the western end
of the state that will admit that we
need these methods in Kansas. The
balance of the state is not in sympathy
with us to any great extent. We have
first to convert our W people and this
is the task we have set for ourselves.
We are trying in every way to CON
vince Kansas that the best thing for
ali concerned is to come into the open
and say that the western end of the
state must use scientific dry farming
methods if it is to succeed agricultural
ly. / believe we will have Secretary
Coburn's open Endorsement on that
nor Stubs, in a short time. Our con
gresham, Hon. f. Fl. Madison, has in
dorsed the work for this state. We are
working along this line to isolate the
real estate boomers who are back of
the anti-dry farming sentiment. And
we will make it win.
"The Syracuse Commercial club has
spent some hundreds of dollars in the
last two years for the spread of the dry
farming gospel. 1t has determined to
hold a fair this fall before the Billings
congress and we will send in the very
best exhibit that can be made up from
the products of southwestern Kansas.
This will include the section south of
the Missouri Pacific railway and west
of Dodge City.
every Saturday afternoon we have
a street meeting in the interest of dry
