constructing a lake on Mt. Dread is
the plan of the authorities just made
public. The plans for this lake are
that it is to have an area of something
over two acres with a capacity of
nearly 100000 gallons. The location
of the lake will be just north of the
new engineering building in a natural
hollow which is now overgrown with
shrubbery. A large force of men will
be put on the work Immediately clear
ing this away and constructing the
big dam. On the west end of the en-
bankment is to be the spillway over
which is to be built reinforced con-
crete bridge faced with rubble mas
onry- Steps will lead down from
the engineer building to the two
plants that wind around the new lake
and cross the dam and bridge to the
golf links and McCoook field. A
pump house will also be built on the
north side of the lake. The plans were
drawn by Albert Johns and the gen
eral work will be supervised by Prof.

To Eradicate Animal tuberculosis.

To Eradicate Animal tuberculosis.
DR.. Burton r. Rogers of the veteri-
nary department of K s. A. G. issued
a pamphlet while attending the Ma
honal Graduate School of Agriculture
at Ames, Iowa, outlining an apparent
~ reasonable plan for the automatic
and complete eradication OF animal
tuberculosis from this country, within
two years (after its adoption) and
without cost or loss This plan, ne
says, also means the automatic solu-
don of the national, state and munich
pal meat and milk problems as far
as tuberculosis is concerned. Dr.
Rogers has succeeded in interesting
q wealthy but modest and retiring
public spirited citizen of this coun-
try in a proposition of standing the
cost in whole, or in part, of complete
ty eradicating animal tuberculosis
from one county, according to his
plan, to prove to the world that 1t
would be possible to stamp out the
animal tuberculosis. The doctor ex-
plains that the packing houses at
present are buying the tubercular
animals and paying full market price
for them and then sustaining a loss
after they are condemned by the gov
eminent inspectors. Hogs are tuber-
cular because they are associated
with tuberculous cows. But the pack
ers are unable to tell what farm these
hogs came from so that the tubercu-
ious cows could be disposed of. He
would have all the hogs that are sold
tagged wit ha metal tag so that the
packer could tell where a diseased
nog came from. Thus having located
the souce of the disease, the animals
for, according to the doctors packers
could buy up all of the diseased plan,
it would be far cheaper for the pack
ers to buy up these diseased animals
knowingly and thus stop the spread
of the tuberculosis, than it would to
continue to buy infected animals I'M
knowingly.
