the closet. BY means of small shov-
ell a sufficient quantity Of the dust
should be used every day to keep the
excrement we'll covered. This will
prevent the escape of all odors and
even when the vault is not screened
flies will not be attracted or be able
to gain access readily. If possible,
the vault should be lined with cement.
However we'll the dry closets may
be taken care of, they can never be
as sanitary and satisfactory as the wa
ter carriage system which has been
used for long time by our cities, and
even now is operated quite success
fully in farm and rural homes that are
entirely dependent upon their own
source of water supply. Such sys-
tenn, aside from the cost of the we'll or
other source of water supply, can usu-
ally be installed at a cost which need
not exceed $3.50 or $500, and should
consist of an elevated tank, sink in

SEWAGE DISPOSAL
A FARM PROBLEM
InSanitary Practices Around
Country Homes Often Lead
To Disease
HOW TO MAKE A SEPTIC TANK
DRY EARTH CLOSETS ARE EASILY
AND cHEAPLY ARRANGED
WATER CARRIAGE SYs-
TEN BETTER.

Before the discovery of microbes
very little attention was given to the
disposal of sewage in order to make
places more sanitary. Not only were
populous cities then swept by cases
of typhoid, cholera and kindred bowel
troubles, but even sparsely settled
country districts were visited by the
same dreaded diseases. Since then
more careful attention has been given
to sewage disposal, so that now dis
eases caused by insanitary methods
in disposing of sewage are much less
common.
The common country closet, which
generally consists of a hole dug in the
ground over which is constructed a
somewhat rude shed, has larger sick
and death list to it's credit than most
any other insanitary agency. 1t is
hardly ever screened to keep out flies
or placed in a position where its con.
taminated waters are certain not to
enter wells and other sources of water
supply. Surprising as it may seem,
people who are otherwise scrupulous.
ly clean, permit the most insanitary
conditions imaginable to exist.
Even if no sewers are available In
sanitary closets should not and need
not exist. All vaults should be well
screened and the dry earth" system
installed. This can be done by get
ting dry dust from the public highway
and placing it in box in corner of

from the closet empty directly into
some stream or cesspool BY having
the sewage carried into tank where
it may be allowed to remain for some
time, bacteria which live only in dark
reservoirs will attack the solids, de-
compose them, and finally purify the
sewage. The insoluble particles will
settle to the bottom of the tank.
These need to be removed once in
about every two years. The purified
sewage can be emptied into field or
a tile drain without fear of contami.
nation. If no such outlet can be given,
it can be distributed by underground
irrigation. This can be done by CIV
ing the drain very little fall, say one
inch every Is or 20 feet, and making
it at least SO feet long. This will dis
tribute the seepage so that no particu-
lar spot will become wet and soggy.
This septic tank should be Mt least
8 by A by feet and constructed, Of
concrete. The incoming tile should
be of good sewer pipe cemented at
the joints and have very little drop

LORDS PASS THE VETO BILL
Measure CurtaiIs Powers of Peers and
Adds to Rights of House of
Commons.

London.-The veto bill, which cur
tails largely the powers of the house
of lords and adds immensely to the
rights of the house of commons, was
practically made law. 1t passed its
third reading in the house Of lords
after three hours debate with the op-
position of only a single peer. The
victory was won in a rather curious
way. The members Of the house Of
commons threatened that if the lords
did not accede to the new idea they,
the commoners, would appeal to the
king and have 500 new peers created.
Naturally there would be among the
new ones many-a majority, indeed
who would support the commoners and
vote with them. This idea of "dilut-
ing the blood of the house of lords
Mortified that august body.

WILSON GUSTS WILEY AID
Secretary Removes Floyd w. Robson
Without Consulting Chemist
Taft to Act.

Washington. Floyd W. Robi'
son, an important member of the stan
of DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief Of the
bureau of chemistry of the department
of agriculture, 1t was developed. was
dismissed from the bureau June 80 on
charges of nsubordination.
Although his dismissal was import.
ant, It was not considered sufficiently
noteworthy to bring to the attention OF
DR.. Wiley's staff Of experts in New
York city. He came originally from
Michigan.
Secretary Wilson said that Robson
had been relieved Of service because
of his refusal to carry out an order
of the secretaries of the departments
of agriculture, treasury and commerce
and labor to prohibit the mixing of
benzoate of soda with food, which had
been determined was deleterious to
health.

a breed in that type, the chances are
that results will be much more salts

There is need and opportunity for

operations along all lines. Population
continues to increase and yet the num-
Der of cattle, sheep and hogs is de-
creasing not only in the United States
but in most European countries as
well.
The automobile has not ruined the
horse business as was expected; on
the contrary, prices for horses of
merit have never been higher than at
the present time, suggesting that this
line might be profitable to farmers so
inclined.
The number of dairymen in the state
is increasing yearly in a vain attempt
to satisfy growing demand for milk
and milk products.
Besides the actual returns for ami
NAL products, there are other consid-
erations which appeal to the stock
man. In the first place, he is in po-
sition to easier maintain the fertility
of his soil than is the grain farmer
who lacks the manure, which the
stockman gets as a waste product.
Second, it provides an easy and profit
able method of marketing the crops
of the general farmer. Third, it gets
rid of roughage and makes a complete
system o. farming.
Other benefits could be mentioned
but those cited will serve to show the
value and importance of some class
of stock raising in our older settled
districts. G. E. STORY,

Wagon.

Blue Rivers, Wis.-Louis Strang,
the noted automobile race driver,

Strang was driver of car carrying

In the car with Strang were three
other passengers, including Joe Jag.

and Lester Clark of Richland Center,

not jump but remained at the wheel
and was crushed to death in the fall

OFFERS TRUST CURB
WIcKERsHAM DECLARES NEW
SYSTEM IS NEEDED.
Suggests Body Similar to Interstate
Commission to Regulate Cor
porations.

Duluth, Minn.-Attorney General
Wickersham, speaking before the Min
nesota Bar association here, advocated
a federal commission for the regula-
ton of corporations in the same way
as the interstate commerce board now
curbs the railroads.
The cabinet member declared also
that the duty of fixing prices Of COM
modities might devolve upon this com.
mission, though he expressed some
doubt of the practicability Of this
phase of the plan.
The law of supply and demand, Mr..
Wickersham said, no longer controls
prices in the United States. For
years, he said, the prices in all the
