Reports received by the College

widespread loss during this year, due
especially to the unusually wet grow
ing season. The fungus known as
anthracnose, thrives especially during
moist weather.
The seed to be planted next season
should be selected from plants which
have withstood the disease and be-
fore planting, the formaldehyde treat

spore of the fungus that is doubtless

The stalks of affected plants should
be burned, and it is better to plant

QUESTIONABLE razor back or ordl-
nary range hogs less subject to hog
cholera than pure bred hogs?
All breeds are susceptible to chole-
ra. Some hogs of all breeds are nat
urally immune. Perhaps the crowd
ed, unsanitary quarters in which
many pure bred hogs are kept and
the spoiled food they receive, may
account for apparent susceptibility in
some cases, of the pure bred.

Ouestion-How can a farmer deter

The only reliable method is the tu-

PASSENGER TRAIN
BACKS into RIVER
Four Men Killed and Twenty-six
Injured.

Camp Douglas, Wis, Sept. 8
Four persons were killed in the
wreck of train No. 10 on the Chi
cago, st. Paul, Minneapolis & Om-
aha railroad, which a washout caus-
ed by Sunday nights cloudburst,
threw into the Lemon Weir river
near Camp Douglas yesterday. TWEEN
ty-six other persons were injured,
six seriously. The dead:
Engineer Ralph Thompson.
Fireman Abraham.
Clerk, name not known.
Baggageman Lee.
Conductor Lyons and brakeman
are among The seriously injured.
The train was tagged at a tun-
mel on account of a washout just
west of Elroy, and later was order
ed to back up to Camp Douglas 50
that the passengers might breakfast.
The high bridge and the banks on
both sides of the Lemon Weir river
were washed out, and before the en-
gineer could be warned the train
plunged into the whirling body of
water below. That so many escap-
ed death, in view of the fact that
every coach plunged into the river,
is considered miraculous.

Bird Makes Chum of a Locomotive

Everett, Sept. 3.-Every time a
northbound passenger train leaves
Marysville over the Great Northern
coast line a solitary pigeon leaves
the station and accompanies the
train for three miles.
Railroad men have enjoyed this
novel experience three years. They
look for the pigeon each day, and
the bird is as prompt and as reliable
as train orders, never failing to be
on hand when the locomotive gives
its preliminary putting.
No one among the train crews
knows to whom the pigeon belongs
or why the bird wings its flight
abreast of the racing engine, but
the daily presence Of this silent bird
is accepted as a good omen by rail-
road men. Thousands of miles in
three years the pigeon has flown
with Great Northern trains, and it
never fails to discontinue its flight
when certain point is reached
three miles north of Marysville.
