Boosts Goose Valley.

John OLSON OF MaNVille. a we'll
known farmer in that community, is
a visitor in the city today. He reports
that the rain hat has been falling the
past few days in that vicinity has ma
terially aided the crops. The early
sown wheat is not in nearly as good
shape as the later sown grain. The
stooling was killed to a great extent
by the warm winds that prevailed for
a long time. According to Mr.. Olson
the crop prospects in the Goose River
loop are much better than elsewhere
in the valley, he having covered the
valley north inc south on business
trips.

CURE FOR TYPHOID
Tests in Army and Navy Bear Out
Fact.


incubation with sterilized typhoid
cultures to prevent infection has
proved so effective that many doctors
now believe that typhoid fever can
be prevented as easily as smallpox.
The department of health of New York
City recently announced that inocula-
tion against typhoid fever has passed
the experimental stage, and has proved
to be a sound prophylactic measure.
The department has authorized the
health inspectors to inoculate persons,
and it also provides free cultures to
physicians for their own use. In the
five years from 1907 to 1911, the aver
age number of cases of typhoid fever
in the United States navy was 206
The number of deaths averaged thir.
teen. In January, 1912, inoculation
was made compulsory. The reports
for the first three-quarters of the year
are significant. In the first quarter
there were twenty-five cases of ty
phoid; in the second, eight; and in
the third, six. During the whole oi
this period there was only one death
Moreover, no one who was inoculatet
with anti-typhoid serum contracted the
disease. OF the $4,000 persons whC
were inoculated, only few suffered
any inconvenience; there were no dis
astrous results.-Youths Companion.

mother fell back in her chair dead.
AS the eyes of the others turned to
the woman as she expired the child
sank back into the casket. Its mother
Immediately grasped it in her arms.
