Platform Of the Redwood County ASSO
ciatiOn for the Prevention and Re-
lief Of tuberculosis.

We believe that conservatively es-
timated on the basis of the number
of annual deaths, there are atpresent
at least one hundred persons suffer
ing from tuberculosis in Redwood
County.
We believe that many of these
persons are in need of information
or advice, or some sort of assistance,
if the infection is not to spread to
other members of the family and
the community is to be protected;
and that only by getting in touch
with the cases of the disease who
are the centers of infection-can
any substantial reduction of the APP
palling mortality from tuberculosis
be effected.
In view of these facts we believe
in organized efforts in each centre
of population in Redwood County to
secure proper care and supervision
for consumptives.
To this end it is necessary first,
that one or two persons in each COM
munity know who and where the
cases are who need instruction, care
or supervision of some sort (this in
formation to be secured from the
physicians and held confidentiaD
and then that they see that what is
necessary is done in each case in CO.
operation with the family physician.
1t is also advisable that these per-
sons or local committee on Instruct
ion and Relief be appointed by cen
trail organization for the county
which in addition to this function of
appointing local representatives,
from time to time arrange confer
ences, secure lectures, distribute lit
erature, etc.
The county organization should
also have in mind the great need
for additional hospital accommoda-
ton for advanced cases and use its
influence to secure county Tuber-
culosis hospital as provided for by
Sec. 497. Laws of 1909, or provision
in some other way for those adj
vanced cases which cannot safely be

lage of Redwood Falls will be held
at B. Flynn's office, Thursday, March
9th. The officers to be elected are
president, three trustees, treasurer.
recorder, justice and constable.
It has been contemplated for
some time to organize an Episcopal
Sunday school. There will be meet
ing this evening, at Judge Baldwin's
residence, of persons interested in
the matter and it is probable that
definite arrangements will be made.
A number of persons who con-
template going to the Black Hills
have made arrangements to send
Mr.. Riker on prospecting tour.
He will probably start next Monday.
Ex-Treasurer Robinson transferred
the office to Mr.. Tower yesterday.
The transfer in the auditors Office
will be made next Monday. Mr..
Robinson has served six years as
treasurer and Col. Chandler four
years as auditor, and both gentle
men retire in as good repute as they
and their friends could possibly de-
sire.
If the new apportionment bill is
adopted we will have one senator and
five representatives distributed as
follows: Brown county two, Redwood
one. Lyon and Lincoln one, aYellow

three feet in thickness at depth of

The dip Of the vein is to the west

Mr.. H. is confident tina thicker

nearly all No. | and unusually fine

There will be an Episcopal Sabbath
school social at Judge Baldwin's to-
morrow evening. The invitation is
general.
The new elevator is ready for the
reception of wheat. There will be
about 100000 bushels to go out by
river this spring, probably a great
deal more than that will be brought
in after navigation commences.
We understand from Ener Birum
that the water has increased now so
that he is able now to dowork at the

StOppage at the Point Of the Teat.

By DR.. David Roberts, Wisconsin
State Veterinarian, 1906-7-8.
A very common trouble in the or
binary dairy is to find an animal with
the point of the teal closed. either
due to bruise of the teat itself or
to infection Of the milk duct which
causes little scab to form over the
point of the teat and unless this is
properly handled with care and clean
illness, the infection is apt to cause a
loss of the entire quarter.
The proper manner in which to
handle and treat such cases is to
thoroughly wash the teat in anti
septic solution, then dip asteat plug
into a healing ointment and insert it
into the point Of the teat, allowing
same to remain from one milking to
another. In this manner closure of
the point of the teats can be over
come in very simple and satisfac-
tory way.
Never use a milking tube if it can
be possibly avoided as there is much
danger of injecting the entire quar-
ter by the use Of the tube.

The guide engaged carriage, into
which the tourist jumped, and after a
few words from the guide to the driy-
er the equipage started off at a brisk
rate. Suddenly it stopped, and the
tourist ceased his fire of questions
abruptly.
Hop out" he said to his guide,
urging him by a slight push. Now,

Constitution Island.

Constitution island is in the Hudson
river opposite West Point. The island
comprises 300 acres densely wooded.
During the Revolution it formed part
of the defenses Of the Hudson river.
Upon it are the remains of ten breast
works These were completed by Kos
ciusko. Washington's life guard was
mustered out on this island in 1888.
