Rock Island county this year will
not send delegates to the annual Corn
Growers and Stockmen's convention

vices from federal authorities, in or

being done in abating the spread of
the foot and mouth disease among cat

Miss Lou VI. Harris, county superin-

tiles and in order that nothing may be
done which will interfere with the eff
forts made by the state and United
States department of agriculture to
control the foot and mouth disease,
and to prevent its spread, the authori-
ties of the University of Illinois deem
it wise not to hold the annual Corn
Growers and Stockmen's convention
and two weeks course in agriculture
this winter. For many years this
meeting has been held the last two
weeks in January at the college of
agriculture. The necessity for this ac
ton is deeply regretted but the uni
versity considers it a duty to the pub
lie to support the state and federal
government in their attempts to stamp
out this serious and communicable dis
ease by the most stringent precau-
tionary measures.

nght Keeling had an arm cut off and was otherwise injured. He was unable to walk, but after vanquishing the foe, crawled to a nearby farm house where he received medical attention. His bravery and determination in thus meet ing and routing force of determined federals is undoubtedly one of the most notable incidents of the civil war.
 In his old age Keeling came to Bristol, where he had relatives. and his death oe- cured here in 1905 The Fulkerson camp and the Daughters of the Confederacy had since devoted some time to raising funds for a monument. Their efforts were rewarded when the shaft was unveiled to- day., and when the heroism of Keeling was sung by Dr. C. C.. Carson of the First Presbyterian church and Mayor George M.
