(By w. C. RICHARDS, North Dakota

The form which good dairy cattle
posses results from the milk produc-

There are four main centers of activ-
ity, the digestive system, the milk

latory system, and the nervous sys-
tenn. To produce large quantities Of
milk, 1t Is necessary that cow (or

MORE ENCOURAGEMENT FOR
THE SETTLERS
Weekly Letter to Republican.

weekly Letter to RepuDl1can.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. B.
Congressman Smith is enthusiastic
over the probability of the enactment
of Senator Borah's bill extending
the time within which payments may
be made on reclamation projects to
20 years and also the bill to make
an advance to the reclamation fund
of one hundred million dollars In
order that the numerous projects,
several of which are in Idaho and
may be undertaken.
Mr.. Smith is advocating five year
period within which no payment will
be required by settlers on reclama-
tion projects in order that they may
get their farms under cultivation and
thus be better prepared to meet the
payments as they come due.
The snators and representatives
from the northwest states are taking
keen interest in the proposed legIs-
lation, which, it is believed will have
the approval of the secretary of the
interior.

Discover Cure
for. Lockjaw
or Ietanus

No doubt the medical fraternity
aill be rejoiced over the new discov.
cry for lock jaw. DR.. Pearce Kint-
zing of the Franklin Square hospital,
Baltimore, Maryland. is the discover
er.
Not uatil nine cases had been en-
perimented upon lid The doctor say
much about the discovery. The jan
uary number of the Technical World
tells all about it. The treatment con-
sists of an injection of Carbolic acid
into the the muscles radical de-
parture.
A poor woman was the first one
to come under the treatment. She
was so close to the grave that she
was placed on the operating table.
The bacilli were running riot all
through her system. No ordinary
injection of serum could save her,
because the disease had spread be-
yond the needle prick to the farthest
borders Of the system. If ever a
hopeless case came to hospital, it
was this fortunate young woman.
DR.. Kintzing charged his needle
with pure carbolic acid solution and
injected it into her muscles at once.
No opium was given her afterwards
to relieve the pain (she had reached
the spasm stage) but she was placed
in quiet room and soon was DOING!
A woman half dead from tetanus,
DOING!
Four injections of the carbolic acid
were given her and within a few
weeks the patient lesr the hospitaI
absolutely rid of the infection.
Last year nine cases of tetanus
came to that hospital, and were treat
ed with carbolic acid-these nine cas-.
es were cured,-and this despite the
mortality statistics of the disease,
which show that ninety per cent of
them die.
