THE IOWACROP SERVICE
Review of the Past Week by Direct
or of Weather Bureau.
For week ending April "a. 1910.

For week ending April "a. 1910.
Des MOiueS, Iowa.
The week opened and closed with
abnormally cold weather; the mini
mum temperatures on four days were
3 to II degrees below the freezing
point. The precipitation was decided
ly below the normal and nearly all of
it was III the form of snow. High
winds and northwest gales prevailed
on several days and there was a great
deficiency of sunshine. In fact it was
one of the most unfavOrable weeks,
from an agricultural standpoint, we
have had in many years. Fruits and
garden truck were practically all Kill,
ed, except possibly some of the latest
varieties. Reports vary as to wheth
er or not small grain has been injured
by the freezing weather, but there is
no doubt but what the vitality of the
plants has been seriously taxed, and
their growth has been given a set
back. The high winds certainly Caus
ed a great deal of damage to small
grains. especially in the northwestern
counties. Corn planting has been dis
continued, but fair progress has been
made in preparing corn ground and
IS to so per cent of the blowing has
been done. While pastures and mead
ows are in good condition. the grass
is growing very slowly aud warm
soaking rains are needed at once to
insure normal hay crop.

WOMAN'S CLUB MEET
Resolutions Demand Enforcement
OF Tuberculin Ordinance.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Oskaloosa Woman's Club was held in
the rooms in The Oskaloosa Library
building Saturday Afternoon April %
with an appreciatire attendance.
Th program of the meeting was
lgiven under the auspices of the Do,
nestle Science department.
Miss Gobel, of the musical depart.
ment of the Iowa Christian College,
opened the program with a splendid
vocal solo and was applauded.
Mrs. E. J. BlackwoOd presented a
paper, AN Object Lesson on Bovine
! tuberculosis, from the Magazine of
Philanthropy and Social Advance"
A very interesting and instructive
talk on the tuberCulin test. was given
by DR.. Jay G. Roberts, which brought
out a general discussion on the sub,
/ ject.
The program was closed with an in,
strumental selection by Miss GObel,
! The excellent music furnished by
! the ladies of the Iowa Christian Col
| lege was appreciated by the club
members.
Arrangements were made at the
| business session to celebrate the Fill
teenth Anniversary of the OskalOosa
| Woman's Club, in Nav. The following
! resolution was adopted by the club:
In view Of the fact that tuberculo,
sis. the great white plague, is con
sdcred by medical authorities every
where as the greatest enemy of man
| kind in existence today, that il is the
cause of one death in every seven,
that DR.. William H. Park, of the
Board of Health of New York, has
shown that upwards of two hundred
children die annually in New York
City of bovine tuberculosis and of
the fact that of sixty cases inveSti-
gated by the British tuberculosis
Commission, fourteen were of the DO
uvine type. and Of one hundred and
thirty eight cases investigated by the
German Commission twenty-five were
of the bovine type, and also of the
fact that in every municipality in
which the milk supply has been clean
ed up there has resulted the immed-
late reduction in the infant mortality,
| that in Rochester, New York. this
reduction was from 900 per 10000, in
Fort Dodge, Iowa. from 700 per 10000
to ESQ per 10000, in view of all these
facts and because we consider the
infant lives of the community more
sacred and of greater worth than all
of the wealth of the world.
Be it resolved by the OskaloOsa
Woman's club that we endorse the
tuberculin ordinance and demand its
enforcement. That we ask that such
measures be passed as will admit of
the employment of competent in
spector whose duties it shall be to
enforce said ordinance and see that
the dairies are maintained in clearly
and hygienic conditions at all times.
