WEALTH IN MIDDLE WEST
Investigations by Commissioners CT
Internal Revenus Reveal Large
Fortunes There.

The commissioner OF internal reve-
nue. made public the estimates on in
comes for the middle west.
These estimates show that far mors
wealth is distributed in Illinois out
side of Chicago than in the city. The
commissioner of internal revenue is
inclined to believe the reports are SO
far from correct that he will not use
them to any extent in his plans for the
collection of the income tax.
According to his statement, 10000
citizens of Chicago have incomes
ranging from $4,000 to $4,000 per
year, while 1880 citizens of the
Eighth district. which has it's head
quarters in Springfield, have incomes
within this scope. Only 5000 individ-
uals in the Fifth district, with head
quarters at Peoria, are listed
Likewise in Indiana there is great
variance in districts. The collector
for the Sixth district reported over
10000 taxable incomes, and the col
lector for the Seventh district reported
only 5000.
Large Fortunes in Iowa.
Iowas incomes will be largely taxed,
the collector for that state reporting
nearly 1900 taxable fortunes. Wis
consin has few over 10000, Michigan
close to $4,000, and Minnesota about
1000.
A feature about the Minnesota in
come estimate is that the collector de-
clares there are $50 men In the state
with incomes upwards of 100000 an
nually, while in Chicago the collector
reported only 35 persons with incomes
above the 100000 mark.
Large fortunes seem to predominate
in Minnesota for there are 1000 men
rated with incomes between 10000
and $4,000, as against 500 in Chicago
and 1000 In the whole state of ILL
nois; 500 with incomes between $780,
900 and 100000, as against 175 in
Chicago and 275 in Illinois, and $50
over 100000, as against SO in ILL
nois
Indiana and Michigan are also re-
ported as having large income bear
ing fortunes over the $4,000 mark

two, preceding talks he described his
journey, his meeting with his, aged
mother his meeting with people who
were boyhood friends, in = very inter
esting manner. In his talk on Friday
evening Mr.. Lundgren will give some
of HE Impressions as regards Sweden
social and political life. The condi-
lions which caused so many of the
best young men and women of Sweden
to seek homes in America, thirty years
ago, are fast disappearing, and emf
grafton is comparatively a thing of
the past. There Is also great awak-
ening in the religious life OF Sweden.
All Of these things will be dwelt upon
by Mr. Lundgren in his talk. The Y.
P. 8. desires as many Swedish people
as can possibly do so to come out Fri
day evening. Owing to the expected
crowd the talk will be given in the
auditorium of the church. Refresh
ments will be served in the basement.

PROPER SANITATION AND CARE
WILL PREVENT PASSAGE OF
CHOLERA GERMS FROM ONE
FARM TO ANOTHER.

By r. ". DncKNAN. Iowa State Csl-
The old adase that an ounce Of pre-
vention is worth a pound Of cure Is
nowhere truer than in the prevention
of hog cholera. After the cholera
once gets into the herd It is IN uphill
fight to eradicate the disease. Even
when plenty OF serum is at hand some
loss usually occurs before the disease
is diagnosed, and the treatment can
be applied.
Hog cholera Is germ disease. Be-
fore herd can become infected, the
cholera germs must be brought to
the farm. Except when the disease
is in the very immediate vicinity Of
the we'll herd, proper sanitary meas
ures will 60 long way toward pre-
venting the disease being brought to
the farm. n.
While vaccination is necessary and
effective In close fighting with cholera
it must be backed up by thorough san
itary measures in every lasting and
complete campaign. Just how vital
such measures like cleanliness, disin-
lection and quarantine are, becomes
clear on considering the nature OF tho
disease. The hog cholera germ which
finds its way into the blood Of the ami
NAL Is so small that It has never been
seen, even through the most powerful
microscopes. From the blood it makes
its way to the excretions; it is found
particularly in the urine Of sick or
exposed animals, and to some extent
in the faces. Infection Of well hogs
comes from such excretions to the
digestive tract by their eating ma
terials which have been in contact
with such excretions. Eating the flesh
Of dead cholera hogs is another way
Of infection.
The cholera germ Is . most per-
sistent and virule-t germ, which will
continue to live under adverse cir
cumstances. Winters cold will not
kill it, and it may be carried FAR with
out losing any of it's disease giving
power. a%
Sick and exposed hogs must be kept
confined and isolated on the premises
whore they belong. Stray pigs should
be looked upon with suspicion. When
pigs are shipped into a herd there
should be a certainty that they come
from unaffected premises and that
they have not been exposed in ship
ment in cars or public stock yards.
Carcasses Of cholera hogs must be
burned or buried without delay. Lit
ter and manure must be disposed of
In like manner or thoroughly disin-

Fresh air, sunshine and heat are
good natural disinfectants and they
should be given fullest ACCESS to pens
and yards. Yards mun1 be cDeaned Of
all litter and manure and straw piles
that may give protection to the germs.
This material should be burned II
possible or thoroughly soaked with
some strong dsinfectant like chloride
of lime, six ounces to each gallon Of
water. This cleaning up should be
carried on not merely in the yards
and pens occupied by sick animals, but
on adjoining premises to which germs
may have been carried.
Disinfecting fluids should be pre-
pared in large quantities. Efficient
disinfection requires not only that the
liquid be spread over the entire sur
face to which it is to be applied, but
that enough be used to force it into all
cracks and to dush floors thoroughly
and saturate the ground In pens.
In all cases, the best way to apply
a disinfeotant is by means Of strong
spray pump. If that 1t not at hand,
fairly good results may be secured
by thoroughly scrubbfng walls and
floors with stiff brush wet frequent
ly in the solution.
Special attention should always be
given to feeding troughs, floors and
drains.
After the dis1nfectant has dried.
white wash or spray made of chloride
Of lime may be used with good effect.
Use one pound Of chloride Of lime to
three gallons of water.
When disinfection is completed,
open all doors and windows for the
admission Of light and heat. Wher-
ever possible, infected yards should
be plowed up and cultivated for at
least one season as the germs pene-

Geological survey, in cooperation with
the state, is making a study of the
flow of streams in Vermont.
For this purpose IL gaging stations
are now being maintained in the state
at the following points: Passumpsic
river at St. Johnsbury, White river at
Sharon, Clyde river at West Derby.
Dog river at Mortified, East Creek at
Rutland. Lake Champlain at Burling-
ton, Lamoille River at Johnson, and at
Hardwick, Missisquoi river at Rich
ford, Worcester Branch at Montpelier,
and Winooski river at Montpelier
and above Stevens branch. At these
gaging stations the height or stage of
the river is determined each day by a
local observers, and measurements of
the discharge of the streams are made
| by engineers of the survey From
these data the quantity of water flow
! ing past the stations is determined.
The hydrometric data collected are of
value in Vermont chiefly in the design,
construction, and maintenance OF
power plants and in the study of
municipal water supplies.
