Let us go. we pray thee, unto Jor-

But as one was telling a beam, the

And the man of God said. Where

And he cut down stick, and cast it

be an advantage, the moistened air
serving to mollify the effects of the
heat.
"In Chicago on the shores of Lake
Michigan, continually famed by the
lake breezes and the coolest city IN
the world, the newspapers record the
greatest number of sunstrokes. After
hot day the list of the dead and
injured look like the casualties of a
battle. Nothing could be more absurd
than this. The writer, who has spent
years on the stats of the Chicago
newspapers, knows how this list OF
dead and injured is obtained. Any day
of the year in city of Chicago's size
there are many sudden deaths which
cannot be ascribed to any particular
cause On the first hot day OF
heated spell the newspaper reporter
tabulates these deaths from the health
officers lists and attributes them to
the heat. The staff of the health Of
ficer in order to stand in with the
newspaper reporters is always ready
to help the game along. The next day
when the people read about this horri-
be slaughter from the suns rays many
of the weak minded are affected more
than they would be otherwise; their
imagination runs riot and then heat
prostration becomes more of reality,
for the afflicted person himself will
say the heat was the cause. The fact
is, however, that on Christmas day it
would be just as easy to compile this
list of deaths and injuries as on the
hottest day of the summer. In all
America there never was and never
will be a degree of temperature high
enough to cause death. and it is worth
while remembering that a person on

heat prostration while he who drinks
beer to keep cool suffers more than
any other except the one who drinks
other alcoholic drinks.
"Hydrophobia is another hot weather
ailment, that is absolutely product
of the imagination. Some of the best
doctors of the world agree that there
is no such thing as hydrophobia, that
the person who dies from it is sim.
ply frightened to death. But these i'm.
aginary diseases are the cause of un.
told suffering; there are institutions
which grow rich in keeping up the de.
fusion, and every newspaper report of
a mad dog is worth twenty dollars
line to them"

YOU JUST IMAGINE ITS HOT.

There is really no use worrying
about the heat. You are not really
warm. You just imagine it. Heat
prostrations and hydrophobia are only
children of the mind Deaths and pros
trations from the heat reported in
Chicago are simply newspaper stories
and reporters and health officers work
together on the statistics simply for
the sake of getting sensational news.
And, last but not least, EVERY RE-
PORT OF A MAD DOG SCARE is
WORTH TWENTY DOLLARS A
LINE TO NEWSPAPERS. At least
those are some of the things claimed
in an article in the editorial columns
of The National Food Magazine. There
will probably be some who will not
agree with the statements embodied
in the article, especially some who
have put in the last few days in Chi
cago, Philadelphia and some of the
larger eastern cities. If you really
think it has been rather warm the past

with the hot weather the magma

kind is made to suffer from many af-
fictions that are purely of imaginary
cause. Heat prostration and sun
stroke, perhaps, are the most conspic.
uous of these. Anent this fact DR..
H. w. Wiley says: 1T is always easy
to keep cool. All this sweltering and
suffering with the heat is absolutely
unnecessary. Suffering from the heat
is to great extent a mental condi-
tion.' Let person read the news
paper accounts of excessive heat, and
permit his mind to dwell on it con.
tinually and his suffering will be great.
But the same person could go out on
the Texas plains where the heat is
many times more intense, where it is
considered matter of course, where
there are no newspapers and where
the people do not continually talk of
hot weather, and he would feel little
or no discomfort. People have noted
this fact and have tried to explain the
cause to greater humidity in the nor.
thern atmosphere. There may be
something to this, but it would seem
that the humidity, if anything, would

PREVENTION OF HvoRoPHoeII

The State Public Laboratory at the

the Pasteur preventive treatment for
hydrophobia free of charge to resi-
dents of the state.
Persons bitten by dogs known or
supposed to be mad should avail
themselves of this treatment at once
and before any symptoms Of hydro

When a dog is acting strangely and
is suspected Of having rabies, he
should be chained up and watched for

Joy squirrel hunting while the game
Is young and the farmers Of the coun-
ty along the streams where there is
timber are expressing disappointment
at the order OF the state game and
fish warden, L. L. Dyche, that all per-
sons killing squirrels out Of season
shall be arrested. Squirrels for some
years past have been damaging to
the corn and alfalfa crops and
the number Of squirrels Is greater
this year than for several years past.
Many of the farmers had planned
little hunting trips among the city
gunner for the early part of next
month to hunt squirrels. The parties
have been temporarily called off.
Many of the farmers near timbered
districts, especially along the river,
report that the little animals have
been very destructive in past years
and that there seems to be more Of
them this year than before Almost
kevery year ten or twelve rows Of
corn next the timber are destroyed
and the destruction has already COM
menced this year although the corn
is hardly in the roasting ear stage

third Of the corn off the cob and
goes to the next ear. He climbs q
stalk of corn and husks the ear as
quickly as man can do 1t. 1t would
mot be so bad If the squirrel would
eat all the corn on the ear, as tho
ear is ruined for commercial pur-
pose when the rodent gets through
with 1t. Farmers have tried trap
ping the squirrels but without sue

Another bad feature, and one hard
to believe, is that the squirrel is one
of the most deadly enemies which
The song birds have to contend with

GORDEN TRIES 10 SCARE
X. 9. GRAIN SHIPPERS.
Threatens TO Shut Ont Kansas Wheat
II They Don't Pay.

There Is trouble between the state
grain inspection department and the
grain and elevator men at Kansas
City because the latter are paying
their grain inspection fees to the
clerk Of the supreme court instead
Of the grain department. When the
court heard the grain dealers re-
Gently on a motion to modify a pre-
vious order, the supreme court gave
the grain and elevator men the OPP
ton Of paying their fees to the clerk
of the supreme court or to the grain
department.
The grain and elevator men stated
that they preferred to pay them to
the supreme court where they could
be held In fund until the final
Termination of the grain inspection
fight They hope to knock out the
new grain inspection law and in that
event they would attempt to secure
the return Of the fees paid in while
the case was pending. But D. R.
Gordon, state grain inspector needs
funds. His department cannot con-
tinue to operate unless 1t receives
revenue from some place. And with
the fees cut off it has no revenue.
Consequently he has written a letter
to the grain and elevator men which
they look upon as a threat. They
contend that the letter contains q
threat that unless they turn over
their fees to his department he will
tie up the Kansas City grain market
so far as Kansas receipts are concern
ed. The grain men refuse to turn
their fees over to the department.
The letter written by Mr.. Gordon,
which the grain men contend is al
threat, reads:
my inspectors and weighmasters
advise me that It will be impossible
for them to continue unless they re-
ceive their pay. This will be I'M
possible unless the fees for such SER
vice be paid into the department in
stead of into court. Some have al
ready rendered designations, and 9TH
ers are likely to do SO. Such action
on their part will make 1t impossible
for the department to weigh and in
|spect grain going and coming from
your elevator, as promptly as here
tofore.
~ now wish to inform you that
it will be in my power to have such
grain weighed and inspected as here
tofore, promptly and without delay,
and will do SO, provided you see
fit to make payment of the fees pro-
vided by law to the inspection de-
partment instead of into court; other
wise / will be compelled to inspect
and weigh as rapidly as my reduced
force will permit.
please advise without delay what
you propose to do"
