RIDE FROM GEORGIA TO MEXICO

Rancher Begins Thousand-MiIe Jour-

From Georgia to Mexico the trip
is a weary one in a Pullman, even,
but when made upon the upper deck
of a diminutive Texas pony it is real
ly appalling. But one of the alleged
cowboys who was with the carnival
company that was in Americas last
week is going to make it. Mount
ed upon his wiry little nag he left
Americas Tuesday, having quit the

plucky rancher will reach his adobe

in March.

should be i'm soluble fOrm-the mechanical condition
of the fertilizer should be such permit the plant to
absorb every particle of it, and the goods should be manu-
featured from materials that will give up their plant
food at time but furnish steady supply throughout
the entire growing season.
This is the fertilizer you should have and can 4et-

complete you have compound, each of which is
exactly like every other ounce and not mixture one
part of which would contain too much Ammonia and

TUBERCULOSIS NEWS
FROM A. E. KEPFORD
Much Progress Is Being Made IN the
State in the Fight Against
the Disease.

lFrom Press Bureau Board of Con-
troll of State Institutions Department
of tuberculosis
DIES MONIES, Sept. 15-News from
various parts of the state confirms the
fact that much progress $ being
made in the fight against tuberculosis
The people are becoming so genera4.y
aroused that one has but to be a cas-
ual observer to see that practical
steps are being taken against this dis.
ease. 1t is the exception for one rid
ing on train to see the public drink
Ing cup used The individual drink
ing cup is now generally carried by all
classes. This is significant as there
is no more pernicious disease scatter
ing agency to be found, and it is graft
flying to know that the puofic drink
ing cup is fast falling into disrepute.
For the past three years this depart
ment has maintained an exhibit on
tuberculosis at the State fair. In ad-
dition to the fact that thousands visit
ed this exhibit there were many who
made the exhibit particular point Of
interest at the fair
The suppression Of tuberculosis is
now becoming matter not of senti-
ment but of business sense This was
evidenced by visit to the exhibition
OF gentleman who undoubtedly will
be member of the next legislature.
This man spent considerable time in
viewing the charts and pictures and
made copious notes, and informed me
that he came to the fair for practically
one thing, to get Information on
tuberculosis
Not only did thousands of people
visit the tuberculosis exhibit at the
state fair but took the free literature
which was on distribution. Very little
of this literature was destroyed OF
thrown away as disclosed by careful
inspection of the grounds. A very in
teresting fact was noted that large
number of young men not only took
! literature for themselves but secured
additional copies for friends in
trouble
Now that the thousands of boys
4 and girls of Iowa are in school agair
the sanitation and ventilation o.
school houses should be carefully in
/ spected. 1t should be remembered
/ that much tuberculosis has been in
duced by the unsanitary, unventilated
unwholesome school room and sleep
ing apartment. Abundant exercise
and fresh air for children cannot b,
divorced from good health.

ABOUT STATE OIL LAWS

The druggists of Iowa are highly
Landed in the biennial report OF the
tstate pharmacy commission, filed yes
fterday with Governor Carroll. The
intelligent desire of the druggists to
comply with the state pure drugs act,
knowing as they do that the state
pharmacy commission is hampered in
Its work OF enforcing this law by lack
sof an appropriation. is what brought
praise to them from the commission.
When the general assembly passed
the pure drugs act it forgot to make
an appropriation whereby the com
mission could see that it was fully
complied with. AS result, the re-
port says, the commission has con-
fined its efforts in the most part to
seeing that the section requiring the
proper labelling of so-called patent
and proprietary medicines was obey
ed. In this work the commission says
1t found that everywhere there was
displayed by druggists a commend
able desire to obey the law.
