it took place. so soon after the close
OF the war that there were parties
in the crowd who apparently had not
yet learned that the war was closed
The program for the day was built
on the joint plans Of blue and gray
affair. The first speaker was an ex-
federal who was a candidate for some
high position. He spoke feelingly and
tearfully of the late unpleasantness,
commented upon the hardships Of the
soldier in general, complimented the
wcarer Of the gray upon his bravery
and said that the victory Of the Union
troops were all the greater on that
score. He won more applause from
the gray ranks than from the blue.
The next speaker was an ex-Confeder-
ate, he eulogized the ''Yank," told how
that a rebel at first could easily whip
three yankees" but that, being i'll
fed and poorly armed, the Johnny
was in time overpowered. This speak
er was also candidate for public
office.
A little old man in the crowd, who
had quite successfully been Union,
when Union troops were present, and
''reb" when the southern troops were
in evidence. and who was full Of elo-
quence and booze, made life miserable
for both speakers by his frequent COM
ments upon their addresses and, as
quickly as they had finished, insisted
upon addressing the gathering and
his speech was the feature of the oc-
casion. He related how this one, and
that one, had defaulted when n draft
was made upon his courage, calling
them right out by name, and, as he
seemed to be too well posted, his part
Of the program was cut short by be-
ing pulled down from the grand
stand" by a policeman.
The parade to the cemetery took
place without unusual demonstration
but, while in the cemetery, q one-lsg-
ged wearer OF the blue took occasion
to demonstrate his knock on the af-
fair by stamping upon wreath which
had been placed upon the grave Of q
Confederate. This was observed by
wearer OF the gray and then, To
quote the words of an old soldier
whom we afterwards heard speak Of
the affair, "Hell begin to pop"
In about two minutes the graves Of
the dead soldiers were the battling
grounds of host of soldiers and,
young as we were, We remember that
it did not appear to be battle In
which sectional lines were very closely
drawn. II wearer of the gray was
not in reaching distance the blue-cost-
ed warrior seemed quite contented to
assail another bluecoat, all that SEEM
ed really of Importance was TO have
somebody to hit, and the gray" SEEM
ed to be just as color blind. The lit
tie squad of police present looked on
and cheered impartially, as the ceme-
terry was outside their lines Of juris-
diction, and seemed to feel that hav-
ing ornamented the parade their dn-
ties were done.
The fight seemed to cease as sud
denly as 1t began, the fife and drum
corps began to play and the COM
batants, with a somewhat bewildered
look, quit hostilities and "fell In" be-
hind the band and the march back to
town took place.

PROPER CONTROL o FTUBERCU.
LOSIS.

The proper control of human tuber-
culosis is today the greatest problem
in preventive medicine. When we con-
control and prevention of such dis
eases as cholera, yellow fever and bu-
bonic plague, the question naturally
arises, why do we not turn to science
Tor information we need in carrying
out the proper control of tuberculosis.
1t is only by the recognition Of sci
entific fact that we can ever hope to
gain success.
This calls for re-education of the
general public on a subject that has
been wrongly presented to them by
uniformed writer's in both medical
and lay journals.
1t calls for recognition of scien-
tific facts by our medical men
throughout the land.
1t calls for a suppression of false
statements by the many cults and
milton of their theories by the pub
lie who have no means of sitting the
true from the false.
1t calls for the supervision by the
federal government of all things that
relate to public health.
In the bureau of animal industry
our government employs only the
highest trained men. The result is
that diseases of animals and plants
are handled on "A scientific basis. Edu-
cation in this line has been carried
on by giving the public facts. Not so
with human tuberculosis; all kinds of
statements have been sent broadcast
in regard to this disease, and each
individuals opinion is nodded accord
ing TO the source of his information.
When the public wakes up and de
mands facts, not opinions, then and
only then will we be in a position to
teach them how to control tubercu-
losis. 1t is by education and not by
laws that this can be accomplished.
Some laws will be required, and they
must come from the federal govern
ment, and not from the state.
Here are few facts given out by
our scientific men:
"The tuberculous person is only a
danger to others through the dis
charge from his infected tissues,
mostly sputum."
'If person suffering from pulmo-
nary tuberculosis collect and destroy
all his sputum, he is not source Of
danger to his family, his friends or
the public at large"
Tuberculosis is not an infectious,
but a contagious disease"
Direct sunlight will destroy the tu-
bercle bacilliis in from ten minutes to
two hours"
"Tubercle bacilli may live in dark
places from 80 to $50 days"
If these facts could be properly ex-
planned to the public we might make
some headway ir controlling tubercu-
losis.
There are many other facts in re-
gard to housing, ventilation, fresh air,
sunlight, ETC., that must also be con-
sidered and properly placed before the
public. The public must also be
taught that tuberculosis is a very
common disease; that we cannot run
away from it nor hide from it. 1t is
only by intelligent management that
il can be controlled. They must also
learn that tuberculosis is preventa-
BILE disease and can be wiped out only
when we know the truth about it and
act accordingly.
We must go to our scientific men
for these truths, and when we get
them and the public are ready for
them and demand them, then shall
we be able to place facts before them
in a proper light-facts unadulterated
with opinions.

During last year we sold in

During last year we sold in the
neighborhood of 10, 900 acres of Mon
tana land. This was sold, some of it in
small tracts to the actual settler, and
some of it in large tracts to the man of
means who had money to invest. In
one case where we sold $50 acre farm
we resold it in 20 days, doubling the
money invested in it. In another case
on one of our larger sales, after selling
the land to the investor we Immediately
resold the same land at an advance of
$40, 900 over the price paid. In another
case we sold farm of a section of land

Working Against Themselves.

The editor of The Leader has tried
to impress upon the minds of the farm
erS that radical reduction of the tariff
would injure them more than any other
class, for it certainly would reduce the
price of the products of the farm and
the value of their land In the last
year and for several years past, the
things the farmer had to buy have not
advanced in price nearly as much as
the things he had to sell.
AS against this no class of wage
earners can make favorable showing.
lowest possible price with most of the
articles of consumption, the very things,
in fact, for which the wage Garner in
town and city must spend the greater
part of his earnings. Secretary Wilson
does not present these facts, nor are
they dwelt upon here with view of
exciting any illfeeling toward the Gull
tivator of the soil, but with the pur-
pose, rather, of showing what the soil
of this country has to offer those who
patiently and intelligently and persis-
tently court its favor.
And yet, the farmers, influenced by
demagogues, have voted to change the
conditions and thereby bring upon
themselves financial loss and lessen
their own independence. The men who
would destroy a protective policy are
their enemies and not their friends, as
they will discover in time, should that
policy be changed as seems possible,
should the democracy, aided by the in
surgents, secure control of the govern
ment.-Watertown Leader.

FIDowN in New Glarus, the very cen
ter of the switzer cheese section, there
has been a condensed milk factory
opened which is taking in 10000 pounds
Of milk daily, and the cheese factories
are being forced to close up because
the condensing company pays $1.90 per
hundred for milk. At the rate the con-
densing factories are going up, and
considering the prices they pay for
milk, it looks like rough travelling for
the butter and cheese factories in the
near future. What is to be done by
the consumers of butter and cheese in
this race is problem to be solved in
the future and the solution will be such
high prices that many will have to do
without them.

committee, provides that 50 per cent of
the tax shall go to the town, village or
city in which payment is made, 123 per
cent to the county and % per cent to
the state. The bill if favored is to go
into effect April I, 1912. Within the
