TO IMPROVE THE LEVEEs
Now That the Government Intends
% Improve the River it is up
to the River Cities to I'm
prove Their Landings.

President Wilkinson of the Upper
Mississippi River improvement Assoc
citation returned to his home in Bur-
lington yesterday after presiding at
the greatest and best convention the
association has ever held. Mr.. Wilk-
inson is greatly pleased at the work
of the meeting. He said: Great good
promises to follow as a result of some
OF the movements initiated at the
convention.
With congress working with the
association for the long desired i'm
provements to the upper river, the
members of the association are now
urged to turn their attention individ-
ually and collie 2tively toward securing
better levee and terminal facilities at
the landings along the river This
movement will cover a number of
phases and w. no doubt receive the
cooperation of many local societies
in various communities which have
not hitherto been actively interested
in the work done by the association"
What Will keokuk Do?
The policy of st. Paul in the con-
struction of suitable harbor facilities
is commended, as is also the new
union depot project
The support of the association is
pledged to Major Chas. Keller, gov
eminent engineer, in charge of the
river work, with headquarters at Rock
Island, and to his predecessor, Major
c. E. Richie.
THE support of the association is
also pledged to similar occasions
throughout the country.
The association says that it is in
cumbent upon the municipalities along
the upper river to see that such ter
minals and landings and freight han.
ding facilities are provided as will
handle the shipping of the river
Whereas the national government is
| pledged to construct six foot channel
from st. Paul to the mouth of the
Missouri in the next twelve years, sc
as to insure the safe navigation OF
modern craft. the assistance of all the
municipalities along the river is ask
ed.
THE action of the interstate com
merce commission in protecting water
carriers from unjust competition OF
| the part of railroads is commended.

Maintained by Camps.

The Modern Woodmen sanatorium
for tuberculosis is maintained by the
society for the free treatment of bene-
fetal members afflicted with this dis
ease. 1t is not a charity" not Char
liable institution" Only beneficial
dnsured} members of the society are
eligible for admission. These mem
bers, If lneir cases are durable, are
accepted as patients strictly in the
order in which they apply for admis-
sion. They are there by right of their
membership in the Modern Woodmen
society. AS a matter of right they re-
ceive such care and expert treatment
as will enable them to overcome a
disease which, if left to run its course
unchecked, must surely kill them, de-
priving their families of support, and
requiring the society to meet avoid
able insurance losses.
For the establishment of this sana
forum the society claims only such
credit as may be it's due for the
adoption of an enlightened, up to date
business policy. For the membership
of the society as a whole, the sana
! forum is expected to prove an excel
lent investment is anticipated thai
it will brisg them a profit in dollars
| and cents, at the same time permitting
the society to discharge the fraterna
duty it owes it's members.

Expense is Small.

1t has been shown that the total
expense for caring for durable pa
tient (discharging him as cured) has
SO far been $253.11 The average
amount of insurance carried by each
beneficial member of the society on
January 1, 1910, is s1,59340. There
fore, the gross saving to the society
on each life is S1,5934O, and the net
profit is $1,340.29. A life saved means
that the society will not be called
upon to pay a death claim averaging
s1,59940; 1t avoids this liability by
the expenditure of $253.11 to effect a
cure. When this net saving of ST.
340.29 per life is multiplied as it Will
in time be multiplied, by hundreds
and thousands, the extent of the
money saving that will come to the
society and its membership may
readily be understood.
During the years of 1S91-1909 in
elusive, the Modern Woodmen society
paid $11.556,000 to the beneficiaries OF
6,671 members dying from tuberculo
sis. That is to say, during the years
noted, 14.32 per cent of the deaths oc
curing have been caused by tuber
culosis, representing 1872 per cent OF
the insurance losses in dollars. In
other words, the members of the so
ciety have for years been paying ar
average of about one assessment pei
annum to meet the losses imposed BY
4 the ravages of this disease. AS the
/ authorities conservatively hold thai
| fully rs per cent of all cases of tuber
colsis are durable, if taken in time
and as only durable cases are accept
| ed at the sana,orium. it is not I'm
reasonable to believe that millions Of
dollars will eventually be saved to the
members of the society through the
life-saving and educational work o
this institution.
The patients who continue at The
sanatorium for three months or long
er are the only ones who can proper
/ lv be considered in compilation o
authoritative statistics, as a shorte
stay would not prove of any value al
showing the advantages of the sana
/ torium treatment. The pa
tients who remained at the sanatoriun
three months Or longer during thu
year numbered eighty. The statistic
covering these patients are of SOM
value. Their experience is classified
