EXAMINE CAUSES & 81
Fob CONTAMINATION
Government Experts Will Put sus-
pected oyster Beds Through
thorough inspection.

Through the cooperation OF the
bureau of chemistry of the department
OF agriculture with the, public health
and marine hospital service and the
bureau of fisheries, complete survey
of the oyster beds of the United
States is being made. says a Washing
ton dispatch The first years work
was completed last spring and the
three services are making plans for
their campaign during the coming
winter. An oyster map will show the
location of every bad oyster bed in
this country, but 1t will not be print
cd for general distribution. 1t will
enable the agents of the bureau OF
chemistry to keep watch upon inter-
state shipments Of oysters made from
these polluted beds.
Shipments to points within the
state where they originate will not be
inspected, but il It becomes known
that oysters from a "bad" locality, n
Chesapeake bay. for instance, are
being shipped to point in New York
or elsewhere, samples OF them will be
tested and subjected to an analytical
test. II the disease germs are found,
the shippers and packers will be pros
ecuted under the pure food and drugs
act. 23oss s. S. x
The bactsriologists this winter will
devote their attention to beds along
the Atlantic coast. Chesapeake bay,
to which their last winters work was
confined, will be resurveyed in sus-
picious localities found last year. The
bureau Of fisheries vessel Fish Hawk
will carry four chemists on the inspec-
ton tour. Every oyster bed OF COM
mercial value is known, and the Fish
Hawk will anchor over each one
while the experts make their observa-
lions. A few tongsful Of oysters will
be dredged from each bed and sam
ples of the water and mud along the
bottom will be taken. These samples
will be labelled as to locality and gen.
eral river conditions and sent to
Washington.
The oysters will be sent to the pub
lie health service here, where chem
lists will make analysis for bacteria.
The chemical condition of the water
samples will be noted by the bureau
scientists, and will then be sent to the
public health service for another ex.
animation as to their bacterial con-
tents.

LIST OF INDUSTRIAL
TMENTS LONG
All because the development and investment fund not
available.

II there could be an end to the
situation and the sense OF loss which
the members of the board of directors
has constantly felt on account of the
lack of an industrial securities fund,
there would be some hope for solu-
ton Of the trouble at an early date.
This, however. is not the case. Dis
appointment after disappointment
has arisen and the board has been
left feeling. constantly, that the in
dustrial investment fund must event
ually be taken care Of. or else there
is not much hope in the immediate
future for the growth that we have
looked for.
A solution of this problem was
sought In the credit plan which was
carefully outlined last fall. This.
however, did not seem to meet the
requirements and as consequence,
it was never completed. The credit
plan would not have made the funds
possible in the form in which 1t was
needed, hence it was dropped. Two
other ways are possible. One way is
to raise the money for development
fund by a general canvass Of the
city. The other is to set aside GER
tain portion OF the income OF the club
each year for that purpose.
Here is one Of the propositions
which could have been handled II we
had fund for investment similar to
the one which Davenport has.
An eastern automobile firm wished
to locate farther west and Keokuk
looked attractive. The reasons for
moving from the original location
were: First, the old factory was 10.

labor. A new site seemed desirable.
Two hundred men were employed
in the institution at the time OF the
last general overflow which brought
disaster to the plant The concern
had assets of considerable value and
was rated WELL
The need was an investment Of
$4,000 in stock to be secured by the
assets of the company. A site was
asked, the exact location being left
to the local people with the statement
that, according to the description Of
the Rein tract, it would do very we'll.
Keokuk had to pass 1t up. There
was no available money for the pur-
pose and the plant has gone to an
other city. 1t is in operation today
and is doing we'll.
Until Keokuk can realize the
necessity of having an industrial
fund to be used in taking UP the Sc
curities and stock OF incoming con-
Germs there will be constant trouble
and disappointment.
The question has been asked sevs
eral times, how is the board to han
die this SO as to make 1t q continu-
Ing fund? That Is easily answered.
The board would handle 1t as other
organizations handle similar funds.
Invest in the stock and securities OF
the company. When the company is
on its feet, the stock and securities
are placed upon the market. ON stock
are placed upon the market. No stock
the concern had proved successful.
The increase from dividends and in
terest would go back into the indus

used to take care OF any losses,

of the board OF directors for the fu'
ture, the foundation OF the fund to
be taken from the subscriptions be-
