The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1913-09-17

A Review reporter, on his daily
rounds, dropped into the Denison
Bottling works in the. basement of the
Saggau building on West Broadway
one day last week and had the pleas
ure of inspecting that plant. Mr.. Jas.
Mitchell, one of the proprietors, kind
ly took the reporter in charge and
thoroughly explained the plant to him.
The majority of the people residing
in Denison and surrounding territory
little realize the magnitude of the
business done by the Denison Bottling
works, and our visit was so interest
ing we think it possible the Review
readers will enjoy a description OF
the plant, together with a number OF
fine views Of the interior.
In May, 1907, Messrs. ]. A. Mitchell

good trip over, reaching Hal Kan
about 2 o'clock in the morning. We
had an early breakfast, but had to
wait quite a while for coolies, so did
not get started until about Z. There
was a cool breeze and not much
sun, so we had a delightful trip
and Mr.. Lacy and Miss Bart
lett reached Kang Cheng short
ly after we did. BY the time the
tide was in the wind was so high that
we could not start out.
Later: Here am in Keehang. The
wind went down almost as suddenly as
it came up and after waiting twenty
four hours we set sail and had very
quick trip to Foochow. l wrote to the
consul about going to Yen Ling, but
he was unwilling and since it was a
pleasant trip did not feel justified in
going without his consent OF course
you will have heard long before this
of the attempted revolution in China.
1t is really rebellion against Yuan
Shi Kai. but it seems he is putting 1t
down with strong hand and hope it
may soon be quiet again. We are at
present living in the Independent
state of Fukien. We are sort of be-
tween the north and south and guess
the authorities are waiting to see
which way the tide turns. There will
probably be no fighting here for this

mails are being somewhat interrupted,
but no one seems to think it is any
thing serious. OF course it doesn't
seem half so interesting and romantic
as it did the first time. The glamor
is off now.
We had a good institute and was
so thankful that we were able to fin
ish up in perfect quiet and peace.
Something very disconcerting hap
pened early in the institute, but
thought best not to mention it until
institute had closed as l didn't want
you to be anxious. One of our wom-
en- who had been teaching in place
where the Bubonic plague has been
very bad was stricken with it just two
days after coming in to institute. She
was past human help when we dis
covered what the trouble was. She
was taken home and died soon after.

affectation due to high fever as in the
case of human typhoid is sometimes
present
The kidney worm often given as
the cause of death in herds is not
plausible and in most all such cases
the real trouble is cholera. In more
than ten years of experience and in
thousands of cases the doctor report
ed that he had seen only two such
cases that was really the kidney
worms. Ulcers in the intestines,
stomach and other portions of the d.
gestive tract are typical of hog chol-
era. Coughing often comes from a
cold or from pneumonia which has
been produced by the high fever of
the cholera with sudden change of
temperature. In this case the lungs
will be found to be congested Fumi-
cation by aromatic gases in such
case is more harmful than it is help
full for it only decreases the supply of
oxygen to the lungs which are already
unable to take in enough oxygen.
Swine plague, so called, and chol-
era are the same thing. BY cutting
open carcasses of infected hogs and
making careful examinations any man
can know whether or not there is any
cholera in his herd. Ulcers in the in
testines and bowels, bright red blood
spots on the kidneys, noticeable after
removing the outer skin or capsula,
LESSONS or bright spots showing a
breaking down of the walls of the
bladder are all indications of cholera.
The lungs may or may not be infected.
The lungs should be of uniform flesh
color to be in healthy condition.
Nothing has ever been found that
will cure or control hog cholera when
virus or contagion is present, states
DR.. Stouder, until hog cholera serum
was discovered. None of the so called
vaccines are of any value unless they
are modification of the disease with
which they dead, and hog cholera
serum from the blood OF hogs is the
only vaccine known today for hog
cholera.

Letters From Readers Of The Georgian
"oFFER is PREPosTERous."

Editor The Georgian:
I heartily approve of your edito-
rial on General Sickles and an
Absurd Offer From a Southerner."
Had he lost the money through
no fault of his own, people, both
Northelners and Southerners,
might view the situation in a diff
ferent light. But with the facts in
view the offer of Mrs. Longstreet
is doubly absurd. however patriotic
her motives may be.
Let the G. A. r. or the United
States government pay him out.
Both have been his source of liv-
ing for sixty -odd years-and he
might possibly wiggle a little more
out of them.
But for our veterans and camps
who fought for the Lost Cause, who
laid down the rifle for the pillow,
who went through the darkest of
Reconstruction days, to raise nearly
$4,000 for an alleged embezzler
who is, at least, old enough to
know better, it is preposterous.
We will not countenance for one
minute the truly ridiculous sug
gestion and offer of Mrs. Long
street. Very respectfully,

statements given out by the author

South rush to the rescue of old
Sickles, and that Is wherein she

1t is impossible to imagine Gen
eral Lee threatened with arrest"
for misappropriating other peoples

| protest the suggestion of any
sort of likeness between General
Lee and General Sickles-there is
nothing about Sicllles, never was,
and never viii be, that suggests
Lee
The North has come to honor the
name of Lee almost if not quite as
fully as the South-old Sickles is
honored neither in the North nor
the South.

do not want to be bothered with
him-do not want to hear about
him even. He has hated the South
pcrsistently and vilifed her for
Years. That isn't hurting the South,

the South should not be called upon
to make itself foolish because of
him.

The head of the General Chemi-
cal Company, William H. Nichols,
a recognized authority, said to me
the other day:
I'VE have as customers 10000
manufacturers, so that our bust
ness is a good barometer of general
conditions. We find that these
manufacturers are very well sup
piled with orders. No, do not see
any indication of a falling off in
the near future"
The country's imports and ex-
ports last month broke all Decem-
Der records. We shipped almost
$100,000,000 more than we brought
in. For the full year the balance
of exports over imports reached
$5S2,000,000, the totals having been
$4,000, 100000 and $1,S1S, 900, 600. The
grand foreign trade total of $4,21S,-
100000 is about 5000 100000 above
1911, nearly $s0O,OO0,OOO above 1910
and fully $1,000, 100000 above 1909
