,BR!z ATTACKED BY
RUSSIAN SOLDIERS

London.--Fifty persons were killed
and many wounded in street fighting
between Russian troops and Persians
at Tabriz, according to dispatches
from tn, Persian government. The
~ shg' Nave practically taken pos
"a sTy- he .isla- az nix goyegnmen',
buifdiKss and the Telegraph office are
in their possession. The dead include
a number of Persian officials.
! Many private dwellings were des-
troyed by the Russians, who bonn
barded the city. There were coils
ions between the Russians and Per-
slams at Recht and one or two other
smaller places. The Russian clashes
have caused considerable apprehen-
sion and complicated an already
tense situation. 1t is thought the
Persian troops will now remain in
Persian territory for an indefinite
period.
The news of the fighting at Tabriz
and Recht created great excitement
in Teheran.

1t is shown that the percentage Of
deaths caused by tuberculosis in dusty
trades is more than double that for all
employed men in the registration area
of the United States. While among
males generally In the registration
area of the United States 14.5 per
cent. of all deaths are from consump-
ton the mortality among grinders
from this disease is 49.2 per cent, and
in hardly any Of the dusty trades is it
below rs per cent. The percentage Of
deaths from tuberculosis among all
those exposed to metallic dust is 1858

FARMERS HELP EACH OTHER
Neighbors often Club Together and
Buy Fertilizers and Feeds by
Car Load Lots.

Our people cooperate in various
ways, says a writer in the Baltimore
American. We have several oranges
and farmers organizations in the coun-
ty, and there is a good deal of buying
done through these channels. Several
farmers who are neighbors also very
frequently club together and order
car load lots Of fertilizers and feeds
directly from the manufacturers and
wholesale houses. have often order
ed car loads of cottonseed meal direct
from Georgia at a very reduced price
for several of our dairymen. We do
not, however, cooperate as much as
we should. The disadvantages Of CO
operation are mainly that farmers will
sometimes take their cash and join to
make up an order while they owe a
bill to the local merchant; then the
merchant is often at a loss to know
how to purchase supplies to accommo-
date those he thinks ought to be his
patrons We cannot do without these

TO SAVE BY COOPERATION
Live Stock Association In Minnesota
Profits About so Cents Per
Hundred en- HOGS,
tBy c. R. BARNS, Minnesota College Of
Agriculture.)

(By c. r. BARNS, Minnesota College Of
Agriculture.)
The saving effected by the Itch
field cooperative live stock associa-
ton in the marketing of hogs has
averaged about 90 cents per hundred
weight, as compared with sales ef-
fected outside the association. If all
the live stock Of the state were sold
on a similar basis, it would mean a
saving to the producers of about ST.
100000 annually. But this figure re-
fers to the product Of live stock under
present conditions only. The business
OF stock raising is still in its infancy
in Minnesota. Next to dairying it is
destined to be, probably, the largest
agricultural interest in our state.
Destiny so writes in the fact that the
grasses and feed crops, which are the
basis of all successful animal hus-
bandry, here find their natural home,
their richest development. There
fore, efficient organization among
stock raisers mean the saving to them
not merely Of $1,500,00 annually,
which now goes into the pockets of
middlemen, but Of many times that
amount when, as a stock-growing
region, Minnesota shall have come to
her own"

The live stock breeders Of Illinois
have organized a "Pure-Bred Sire
club" Each member pledges himself:
(1) AS soon and so far as possible to
use only pure-bred registered sires in
the production Of all farm animals.
(2) To advocate the general use Of
pure-bred sires and secure at least
n new member for the club. (3) To
work for the improvement of pure
bred sires In breed character, indi-
vidual excellence, quality, size, sound.
ness and prepotence. az To discour-
age the use of grade, mongrel and
scrub sires and all sires and dams ir-
respective Of breeding that are dis
eased, hereditarily unsound, constitu-
tionally unfit or undesirable in con-
firmation and character.
Every state and county in the south
should follow the example set by IL

DANGEROUS RaclIn In Dust.

A statement issued recently by the
National Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis speaks Of
the dangers from house dust, espe-
cially in rooms that are not we'll ven
tilated. The association warns against
dry sweeping and against the use Of
the feather duster, or other devices
that scatter, but do not take up the
dust. Since the ordinary dust blown
about in the streets is i~mpregnated
with diseases germs, the National AS
ISOLATION urges the adoption of meth
DDS that will prevent the further dis
semination Of such bacilli. 1t also
urges for the coming months Of fall
and winter, o open windows and
more fresh air in house, shop and
schoolroom.
