Counties of State
to Exhibit at Fair

South Dakota counties which do
not take exhibits to the state fair this
year viii miss a prime opportunity
for valuable county advertising.
There Is, TOO, a much wider sig
n%iicance to the county exhibit. The
more counties that display, the great.
er advertising does the state as a
whole receive. It would indeed. be un-
fortunate If any one section of the
state should be u~nrepresentel by the
products of one or more counties OF
that section.
1t SHOULD be remembered that many
visitors come from outside to inspect
the fair and also that an the pro.
gressiye farm magazines, far and
wide, have. reporters on hand. One
of the most important effects of a
good statewide exhibit is the refuting
OF the knocking South Dakbta gets
from outside papers. This point
alone is sufficient to Justify the ex.
istence of the state fair.
A good county exhibit fosters coun.
ty pride and a progressive county
spirit. The average man doesn't
really know what his county can dc
until he sees her exhibits in whole
some state fair competition. Win OF
lose, the exhibiting counties gain by
the effort. Suppose x county does
not exhibit. All x county visitors a,
the fair are bound to say something
or think IT; all x county visitors mus
confess to an inferior county spirit
A big fair Is made only by heart,
statewide county cooperation.

Medical Director
Describes Anthrax

Pierre, Aug. 6.-Folpwing the
bringing OF three men to the hospital
in this city suffering from anthrax,
the state health board has received
numerous inquiries as to what an,
thra1 is like and Superintendent Jen'
kins OF me state board of health,
gives the following statement OF the
disease:
Human anthrax is Z malignant
pustule due to infection by the bac.
illus authracis. most usually trans
mhted 10 man through the handling
OF hides Of infected animals or is
transmitted by the common stable fly.
This infection is evidenced by the
FORMATION OF a pustule usually locat-
ed on the exposed portions OF the
badly. The most common primary le-
sion is on the face, appearing first
as a small red spot which develops
into q veSsicle containing q blush
huid, The surrounding skin becomes
swollen and indurated and the center
OF the lesion develops a BLUSH black
color which soon becomes gangren-
Gus. In these certers OF infection
the bacalis anthracis develop very
rapidly and escape i9:o tie blood
channels where they are distributed
to all parts of the body. When this
infection takes place through the ali
mentary canal few cases recover. The
period of incubation is from one to
three days, and the development of
the local symptoms from three TO nine
days. Prompt surgical interference
IS the Wopar medical ,treatment,
and when this treatment is instituted
early in the development of this con-
dition the mortality ranges from ten
to twenty per cent"

from WATERFOWL to Lake Kampeska.

from WATERFOWL to Lake Kampeska.
This man gave me a e idea for a
railroad to Lake Kampeska. His
scheme is for the M & st. L. railway
to handle the proposition alone and
independently. He says the company
could accomplish the much desired
railroad to Lake kampeska cheaper
than any other company. In the first
place all the company would have to
do is TO use the regular track almost
to the outlet when they could make q
turn and run to the pumping station
and thence to Stony Point and put IN
a loop and return over the same
track. For their rolling stock they
could use a gasoline mosor car which
is so common in the west. The NJ.
& st. L. company has plenty of light
would be suitable for this branch of
road. He thinks the branch road at
the lake shore could be built at a
very nominal cost and the road could
also be used for the purpose Of haul
Ing ice and sand to the city. 1t is
the most plausible solution Of the
railroad to the lake proposition that
| have heard yet. 1t is so simple and
ineIpesive that | cant see why the
M. & St. L. railway company would
AXE the matter up at once. 1t
is a fact which cannot be denied that
the NJ. & St. l.. has done more to
Lake Kampeska than any
other railroad running into Water
town. You see. t~wo-thirds of the
track is already laid to the lake and
the rest would be easy. l think the
company would have no trouble in
getting a right of way along the lake
shore. 1t is a capital idea"

The secondary object of the trip, as

Industry in the foreign countries, the
growth OF that industry, the coun-

to study the transportation
