promote an interest in developing and
maintaining good roads throughout
the county, and is especially in the
interests of the Iowa Blue Grass road,
a branch of which passes through
Stockport, thence north to Fairfield. 1t
is hoped by the influence Of the organi-
cation to get another branch of this
road running over the old state road
from Stockport to Agency City, con
Meeting with the Blue Grass road at
these two points, and passing through
Birmingham and Libertyville.

ACTIVE SELLING
LOWERED WHEAT
TWENTY CENT CUT IN PRICE OF
FLOUR ONE OF FACTORS IN
SHADING PRICES.

Chicago, June 14.-Active selling to-
day pounded down the price of wheat
The main idea of traders on the bear
side was that barring some unforeseen
disaster to the spring crop the market
would ultimately descend to an export
basis. More favorable advices regard
ing the outlook for growth in Russia
being made for time tended also to
discourage the bulls. A 20-cent cut In
the price Of flour counted likewise
against the value Of wheat OPENING
figures were a shade lower to Il up.
July started at S71s tc SIN, SIX
teenth down to the same amount high.
er than last night, touched 87% and
then fell to $3.50.
Alleged poor appearance of wheat IN
the Jim river valley helped bring about
a decided rally. Dry weather there
was reported. Cables, too, told Of IN
sects havoc in Hungary. The close,
however, was weak with July at $50
|sSMc., net gain Of NC.
A wet forecast resulted in general
rush to sell corn. Both longs and
shorts joined the stampede. July
opened n to y off at SAN to 541s'
but steadied around sane.
Later the market rallied with wheat.
A feature was the narrowing OF the
September premium over July. me
close was easy at 54% @54Ac. for July,
a net loss Of a shade.
There was a broad trade in oats.
The market, however. sagged with
wheat and corn. July started shade
to A@A down at 90 to 3shc, rallied
to 33M@3sAc and then sank to 37Ac.,
The big run of hogs west weakened
provisions. First sales were five cents
lower to shade up with September
delivery s15 for pork, 1926 for lard
and $S.12h @S.15 for ribs.

of the best chunks and wagoners. the

PREPARING FOR
FOURTH OF JULY.
SECRETARY SUMNER OF STATE
BOARD OF HEALTH ISSUES
CIRCULAR FOR OFFICERS.
TO PREVENT LOCKJAW
Gives Finding Of Best NEEDLES In
Country for the Prevention Of
FataIity-Uroes All to Get
Supply Of Anti-Toxin.

Anticipating that many cities Of the
state will not follow the teaching Of
the great agitation for safe and
| sane" Fourth of July, and as a result
there will be many casualties, Secre-
tary Sumner, of the state board OF
health, has taken the next best course,
that of trying to reduce the number of
fatalities which come from hilarious
celebration. He has issued a circular
] to the health officers of the many
cities and towns with explicit and i'm
portant instructions for preventing
lockjaw, caring for wounds and burns
and in fact every precaution and
preparation that may mean the saving
of life. He states that tetanus anti
toxin should be procured by every COM
munity in the state. Following is
brief of the circular:
Secretary Sumner urges all health
officers to get supply of tetanus anti
toxin at once, that they may be able
to treat gun-powder wounds at once
| and prevent cases of lock jaw.
He has also prepared q list Of rules
to follow in case Of wounds. whereby
lockjaw may be prevented.
| His warning follows:
quest that at least one druggist In
hand a supply of anti-tetanic serum for
the saving of life from fourth Of July
injuries.
cal association in June, 1910, gave the
following simple rules to be followed
in the treatment of every blank cart
ridge or punture wound:
To Prevent Lockjaw.
I. Inject simultaneously 1,500 units
of anti-tetanic serum and continue the1
injections If indications Of possible|
tetanus arise.
| g. Freely incise every wound.
| 8. Carefully and thoroughly removed
from the wound every particle of for.
eign matter.
| L. Cauterize the wound thoroughly
with Is per cent solution Of phenol
(carbolic acid) in glycerine or alcohol.
s. Apply a loose, wet boric acid
pack
| g. In no case should the wound BIO
closed. It should be allowed to heal
by granulation. The dressing and pack
ing should be removed every day, and
fresh dressing applied.
| Recent results 60 to snow tnat tE9
simultaneous injection of an immun.,
izing dose of tetanus anti-toxin Is n
sure method of preventing th3M
disease In all cases where garden dia "
stable dust, manure paper wads N
powder from cartridges have bel
ground or forced into the injured Il
sues a preventive dose of anti-toM
should be given simultaneously at
time the wound is dressed, or as SOD
after as possible.
Particular and insistent recommel
dation is made to every health offica
to act now and secure q supply dt
tetanus anti-toxin-if not already sup
plied-before the period of fourth OF
July accidents, which so imperatively
require the preventive use Of this anti
toxin Be sure that the remedy is at
hand and employ every means to urge
