WILL BE OF DEEPEST IMPORT.
ANcE TO DAlRYlNG INTER.
ESTs OF THE STATE.
Case Of r. e. Cobb & Co., Commission
Merchants, Against the Northern
Pacific Is Attracting Attention.

On September II, at ten o'clock in
the morning, there will be tried be.
fore Commissioner Prouty in the Unit.
ed States court rooms in St. Paul a
case that is of more than passing in
terest to North Dakota dairying in.
terests. 1t Is the case Of R. E. Cobb &
Co., commission merchants and 9th
ers vs.. the Northern Pacific railway,
wherein the Cobb & Co. are endeav:
oring to force the railroad and OK.
press companies to put into eject a
for the transportation Of
milk and cream that now prevails in
Kansas and Nebraska.
Cobb and other interests operate
large centralixers In st. Paul and are
anxious to get low rates for milk and
cream. They ask for graduation Of
charges that will make the rate for
$50 miles and other long hauls about
the same as for 100 miles, thus max
ing it possible tor them to get cream
from distant points as cheaply as that
tributary to their centralizers. This
would mean the closing of a large
number Of small creameries in North
Dakota and other states, the same as
followed the putting into effect of the
rates In Kansas and Nebraska. The
centralizers use the Babcock test,
which puts the farmer in the hands
of the city man as far as the grade
and test Of his cream is concerned.
and works a hardship on the small
creamery man as we'll. 1t Is likely
that the North Dakota railroad com.
mission will be represented at the
meeting by President Stutsman. 1t
will be argued by the attorneys for
the Northern Pacific and some special
counsel that the granting of the rates
requested would be discriminatory, as
it is only asked on milk and cream and
not on any other dairy or farm prod
ucts. 1t Is likely that there will be
a large attendance at the hearing on
the seventeenth, as 1t really means
a great deal to the infant industry of
dairying in the state of North Dakota.

'lIy0NA BOY SUFFERS
Loss OF BOTH LEGS
ACCIDENT OCCURS SATURDAY
EVENING AFTER THE
ehOW.
Nothing Known az to How the Ac.
cidsnt Happened Save That the
Young Man Was Pushed on Train.

Saturday night Ross Baker, son Of
Wesley Baker OF Livona, had the mis-.
fortune to lose both his legs as the
result of q fall from q train between
Mandan and the Northern Pacific
bridge.
The young man had attended the
performance Of the wild west show
In Bismarck and had gone over to
Mandan on the train which carried
most OF the Mandan people back to
their homes after the show. He was
seen around the vicinity of the depot
in Mandan fifteen minutes before a
stock train pulled out of the yards for
Bismarck. There was pusher engine
on behind the stock train which help
ed it as far as the bridge. The en-
gineer of the pusher saw Baker ly-
ing near the track on his return from
the bridge to the Mandan yards. 1t is
supposed that the young man intended
marck and fell off.
His first words were that he would
like to "get" the fellow who pushed
him off the train, and the supposition
is that maybe some one did push him
under the wheels.
He was taken to the Mandan hos
pital where his limbs were cared for.
One leg was severed above the knee.
TIL other one was badly mashed about
the ankle and the foot and amputa-
ton may be necessary.
The accident was extremely unfor-
tunate for the young man and his
friends deplore it greatly.

Fiehting the HOokWOrm in Pike County.

Dr. ". H. Sanders, at the head of the state department of health, has begun to combat hookworm in this state. He was led to start d campaign in Pike county by thorough and painstaking investigation. Dr. H. G. Perry has been placed in charge of the Pike county work. He has had large experience in the diagnosis and treatment of the dis ease. The germ will be combatted in Pike county until it is exterminated, and this will serve to show other coun- ties what can be accomplished.
 The hookworm cannot be laughed out of existence. Its action was formerly attributed to malaria, but the discovery of the germ shows that the malaria theory was baseless. Let us hope Dr. Perry will combat vigorously the dis case in Pike county, for he will not only save in that county many lives from a slothful existence, but he will demon strate the value of similar work in other counties of this and other states. The hook worm is no illusion. It is an exceedingly hurtful germ. and the scientists agree in saying it can bo readily exterminated. pr. Westmore- land Of Atlanta thinks the south owes . vote of gratitude to MT. RocAefeller for furnishing the money on which an- ti-h hookworm campaigns can be cel- ducted.

Atlanta and B,rm,ngbam Compared

| T have long practiced total abstinence 1 from whisky and other strong stimu-

 pen to be at a banquet where it Is served" remarked a prominent business man whose home is in Baltimore Good beer is almost like food to some people and it is as much a part of their lunch as bread
 'The mild beer that tue broweries turn out nowadays contains very little alco- hol-not enough to produce intoAlcation in an adult. It goes well with oysters and for an abstemious person like my self bottle of beer and two or three crackers make d midday luncheon. But as I am always law-abiding I have had to deny myself beer here in Birming- ham-innocent beer, for, being visitor, there is no way for me to get 1t without violating the prohibition laws.
 Atlanta, it seems to me, has taken long step in solving the temperance ques- tion. In Georgia the sale of beer Is legalized and in Atlanta beer is served on the table at the Piedmont and other HONSaS' o10ACo VI DCCl aaipOAA9 atS ioAiAN. in Atlanta and that city will attain the rank of the leading beer-drinking com munity, per capita, in this country, if 1t has not done so already. The Georgia beer policy makes for temperance, for 1t certainly minimizes whisky drinking and the blind tiger business. I am surprised that a state like Alabama, containing a number of populous cities, should have allowed so-called reforners or so-called temperance agitators to prohibit the man. ufacture and sale of malt goods.
 T imagine that within the next year or two Alabama will follow Georgia's eX- ample and legallze beer--'near beer which is understood to be all kinds of real beer. Certain it is that men who travel through the south and who enjoy beer with their meals will compare Atlanta and Birming- ham to the advantage of the former. No man of sense, opine, would say the law against saloons is going to hurt d grow ing town like Birmingham very material ly. This place will grow in spite of small hindrances; but why should inno- cent visitors who like beer-a truly tenn perance beverage--be made to deny them- selves. simply because fanatics have de- creed it?"
