The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1910-10-13

THE United States army has lately
1 undergone "A series of stern and
severe criticisms. Authorities have
studied the existing conditions from
every point Of view and in their re
ports have delivered their opinions
In a fearless manner. In report
recently made public one inspector
points out the case of a whole bat
talon OF artillery starting out for the
Philippines without a single field Of
ficer and one of the batteries com
manded by second lieutenant of
u than two years service. In one
department alone a third OF the line
officers were absent from duty with
their commands under detail. and al
together. the inspector says. the stu.
alton warrants the prediction that re-
suits OF n disastrous kind must sooner
or later be realized.
People who think the United States
army stands at the top Of the pro-
fession would be rudely Jared to
learn from Inspector General Ball

Army Wanting in Marching Ability

that the field army is wholly unpre-
pared for field service He says the
new regulations are almost entirely
theoretical or dependent upon the ex-
perience of European armies. Our
transportation Is the same as at the
beginning of the civil war for our
army has SO far failed TO make use
OF automobiles, traction engines and
other modern appliances in the field.
The weaknesses could be quickly de-
veloped II the present annual maneu-
vers could be replaced at least once
by the march OF complete army
corps, Very few OF our officers have
ever marched with more than a regi-
ment.
TO remedy these conditions, Mai.
Gen. Wood, chief OF staff. has Issued
orders which will change materially
the training of the army. The inspec-
tors general will be required to sub
nit the troops to an annual inspection
I'm the field, in addition to the present
inspection. which Is described in some
quarters as being little less than an
inquiry into the accounts and garri-
son work of the troops. The new In
spection Will be designed to show the

His answer was, that, in the hilly
country along the river. springs were
numerous and that the cream can was
set into the spring and cooled down
and then not mixed with the next

the same way. Springs are not nu-
merous enough with us in Iowa to

First Report on Infantile Paralysis

as a cause of death has been made
heretofore. but the increasing import
ance of the disease and its wide prev
alence throughout the country in the
form Of local epidemics render a
statement OF the mortality important.
Many outbreaks have occurred in
this country, the most important Of
which were those in Vermont in 1894
and In New York and Connecticut in
1907.
The 500 deaths compiled for the
registration area for 1909 were widely
distributed, and indicate endemic or
epidemic prevalence In many parts OF
the country. 1t should be remem-
bered. the bulletin points out. that
the census data relate only to regis
tration sources. and that for the non.
registration states the deaths are
only those returned from the regis.
tration cities contained therein.

Big Harvest From Unredeemed Money

money issued the government escaped
payment on from onetenth OF l per
cent to about one-half Of ! per cent.
This. of course, means that the gov
eminent makes on the paper money
1t issues commission varying De
tween the percentages set forth. Inc
most definite result shows gain OF
approximately one-eighth of per
cent, total gain to the government
amounting to s13.24l,0OO since the
beginning of our paper money-about
half century ago.
In its accounts the government, to
be absolutely safe" puts the per
centage Of destruction of notes at the
lowest possible point, so that there Is
TO chance of it finding itself worse
on than 1t had imagined in the event
OF run on the treasury. In the
treasurer's statement concerning
notes is always entered under the
caption unknown, destroyed an
item Of 81 100000, in spite Of its esti'
mate Of $4,000 600. This is entered
in the redemption column and sub.
tracted from the amount outstanding,
thus preserving the balance.
All sorts OF causes contribute to
increase the amount OF paper money
that will never be presented for re-
demption Fire Is perhaps the most
important cause, though improved
safes and the more general use OF
safes for holding the cash supply are
annually reducing the loss from this
cause Then there Is a sort of Inertia
that money seems to have which
keeps 1t out in the country once It
Is started in circulation. even though
It be of an issue supposed to mature
at a given time. Shipwrecks, too, are
responsible for some Of the loss.
Lastly, there are the collectors. and
It IS probable that every fairly good
collection of United States paper
money accounts for at least one piece
Of every denomination that has failed
to come back to the treasury.

then husk. and discard those that are
not up to the standard. Only ears
of the best form should be retained
for seed purposes since a small
amount well cared for is worth more
than a large amount less thoroughly
cured.
The corn should not be picked So
early that II is immature, since its
vitality Is thereby injured. A slight
frost will not iniure the seed corn
II it is well ripened and 1t is better
to risk n frost than TO pick the ears
too early.
Corn should be placed upon rack
so that It will cure out rapidly be-
fore cold weather begins and arti-
fetal heat should be used II neces.
sary Do not lay corn in the sun

tality of the seed. Corn should be
stored in dry room where II will
not absorb moisture during damp
weather. A little care given 10 the
proper selection and testing OF seed
will mean an Increase OF several
bushels per acre in the yield Of the
crop with the result that the total corn
production OF Wisconsin will be In
creased several million bushels.

WASHINGTON-The United States
W government in fifty years has ac-
cumulated s13.000,000 from unre.
deemed money. a longstanding ques-
ton, namely: How much does a gov
eminent make through the failure OF
It's citizens to present it's paper for
redemption? is answered fairly &C
curately for our country in these fig
ures. Expert mathematicians in the
United States have figured on the
problem. and the results they have
obtained by different methods are so
nearly Identical as TO lead the layman
10 feel confident that they have hit
somewhere near the mark
Obviously the difficulties surround
ing the statistician wishing to tabu-
late the gains of the government from
this source are almost insurmounta-
bile, II accurate figures are what he is
looking for. The destruction OF pa
per money Of all sorts goes on rapid
tly throughout the country. yet this
loss Is never reported to the treasury.
SO the mathematicians have had to
take the complete figures of the gov
sernment redemption division, and by
comparing the average life of notes.
the average percentage of actual re
'demptlon. and other items of that
sort have been able to work out a
fairly accurate percentage of paper
