COSTLY FIGHT
Government Expects Great Expense
i'm Stamping Ont Cattle Disease.

Washington, Nov. 3 Further
spread of the livestock foot and
mouth disease has caused the extern
sion of the federal quarantine to two
more states, Massachusetts and Iowa.
Reports to the department of agricul-
ture announced the discovery of the
epidemic at South Attlebury, Bristol
county. Mass, and at Parnell, Ia, the
first case west Of the Mississippi. Cat
tie, sheep and hogs now cannot be
moved out of Michigan, Indiana, I'LL
nois, Ohio. Pennsylvania, Maryland,
New York, Massachusetts, or Iowa. In
addition to the states already quar-
antined a suspected case exists at
Como, Miss. where 1t is reported o
herd owner himself has contracted
the disease. The federal authorities
are advising state officials to impose
stringent quarantine against infected
sections and W. to prevent children
from the farms attending school.
Hope was expressed OF receipt of
reports Of no new cases in Indiana
and Michigan, that the epidemic
there had been placed under control.
On the other hand new cases were
found in Lancaster county, Pa, and
in three more counties in Illinois.
The spread Of the disease makes
certain great cost in putting down the
epidemic. 1t would not surprise the
officials If the cost were nearer the
$12.000.00 expended by the German
government to eradicate the disease

SERIOUSLY HURT
Farm Boy Probably Fatally Injured
by Kick of Horse.

White Lake, Nov. 9.-The 11-year-
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Schill-
ing, living on a farm near White
Lake, was perhaps fatally hurt as the
result of being kicked in the head
by one of his fathers horses. He
was found in a field some distance
from the house in an unconscious
condition. He was terribly injured,
his skull having been fractured to
such an extent that brains oozed
from the opening through the skull.
The boy had been sent out a short
time before to a pond some distance
away to procure a barrel of soft
water. The barrel was on a wagon
drawn by a single horse. The boy
had unhitched the horse preliminary
to filling the barrel with water when
the animal evidently kicked at him
and struck him in the head. The boy
remains in an unconscious condition
and there are no hopes of his re-
|covery.

resentatiye Oscar w. Underwood, the
leader of the house, estimates that the

of the failure of the tariff law to pro
vide the necessary income.

Mr.. Underwood, 1.-The customs revenue
collected amounted to $500, $1,000. or
this amount $50, 100000 was collected
before the presen. law went into ef-
feet. The customs revenue collected
during the first nine months the new
law was in effect amounted to $685.
100000, or 500, 100000 per month. The
customs revenue collected during the
fiscal year 1913 (the last year the
Payne law was in operation) amounted
to $31S,S9 1856, or 2 100000 per
month. The new tariff law provides
an income tax to make up for the re-
duction I'm customs revenue because Of
the lowering of the tariff taxes.
For the last ten months Of the cal
endar year 1913 there accrued from
the income tax on individuals $31 ,344,-
$50. The amount OF corporation, ex-
else and income tax accruing from the
entire calendar year of 1913 was $45,-
S51 OPS. The total amount of the ex-
| else tax on corporations derived by
the treasury for the calendar year 1912
/ was $50, O06, 299. The new income tax
law eliminated the corporation exemp-
| ton Of $1,000, added to the tax list
many corporations not subject to the

Considering the unsettled business

the best obtainable figures as to the

SAN JUAN HARBOR
Roadstead Leading to Porto
Rico's Capital Is Majestic.
Was Scene Of Most Pathetic Of Eng
lands Sea Stories, the Last Voy-
age of Admiral Hawkins, With
Sir Francis Drake.

San Juan, Porto Rico.-Like other
harbors which have described in this
series, that of San Juan, Porto Rico,
is truly romantic and majestic, says
Roger w. Babson in Public Ledger.
There are many San Juans in these
southern seas, but this certainly Is
San Juan Bautista and well chosen to
be the entrance to the capital of Porto
Rico. In addition, however, to the
physical and scenic attractions of this
harbor, ran across a tragic side.
This harbor was the scene of one Of
the most pathetic Of the sea stories Of
England, the story of the last voyage
of Admiral Hawkins and Francis
Drake. These great Elizabethan sail
ors got together a fleet and put out
from Plymouth in 1895. The voyage
was disastrous from the beginning.
After suffering reverses at the Canae'
les and Marie Galante, the feet arrived
of San Juan. The aged admiral died
when land was sighted and Drake then
took command. At break of day, the
English feet appeared of the forts.
After several attacks in which the In
vincible Drake was repulsed, the Eng
fish fleet bore away beaten.
The capital Of Porto Rico will for
ever associate with the life and times
of that most romantic adventurer,
Juan Ponce de Leon. This pictur
esque Castilian was a soldier of for
tune who had already served in many
campaigns before he embarked with
Columbus on his second voyage il
1893. In 1909 Ponce de Leon was ap
pointed governor of Porto Rico, where
two years later he founded the city
Of San Juan Bautista. Here he lived

It is true that nature and a woman's
work mas produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has

herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
q remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM

Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast TO coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.

Mass, are files containing hundreds Of

gin of the harbor and which can be

l have been surprised to find the
island so thickly populated. The Uni
ted States has population of about
only 20 per square mile, and this
would figure only 40 per square mile
If we assumed one-half of our entire
country to be untillable. Considering
the available land in Canada, the pres
ent population there is at the rate of
only one or two persons per square
mile. The population of Porto Rico,
however, is nearly 300 per square
mile! The people are a mixture Of
Spanish, negro and Indian, race very
much like the Cubans, but more peace
full, having not been subjected to SO
much abuse.
The feeling toward Americans is not
much more friendly in Porto Rico than
in Cuba or South America. All of these
countries look upon us as intruders.
Even the Spaniards, who treated them
SO cruelty, are considered with more
respect than are Americans. Yet we
have done little differently than have
the English in their relations with
Jamaica, Trinidad, and with Barbs-
dos. The fact, however, that we pre-
tend to stand for democracy probably
makes us appear as hypocrites in the
eyes of these people. Instead of look
ing upon US as their liberators, they
feel that we have stolen their island.
