SCHOOL CHILDREN EXAMINED
Local Dentists; Have Volunteered to
Examine Teeth of Children Free
Will Prove Beneficial.

Superintendent of the public schools
c.. 4. Humphrey informs the Review
that the local dentists have offered to
examine the teeth OF school children
to their parents, showing the condi-
ton of the teeth and the mouth cavity.
Every school child will be requested
to go to one of the local dentists for
an examination.
1t is planned to furnish the dentists
with cards and after the child's teeth
have been examined the card will be
filled out showing the result of the
examination, pointing out the condi-
ton of the teeth and whether or not
they should receive attention. One
of these cards will be given to the
parents of the child so that they will
know the exact condition of their
teeth.
Some of the larger cities require
that school children visit dentists from
time to time for an examination OF the
teeth and il found in bad condition
they must be treated. 1t has been
found that poor teeth are detriment
to children and that children so af-
fiicted are not able to master their
studies as we'll as children who have
good teeth.
We are pleased to see that our To-
cal dentists are taking an interest in
the children OF the community and
offering their services free of charge.

USE CARE IN CHOOSING SHEEP.
Age and the Ability to Produce Wool
Are the important Factors in
the Selection Of Breeders.

Farmers who are planning to add a
flock OF sheep to their live stock are
urged by Prof w. II. Pew of the ami
nal husbandry department of Iowa
State college to give especial atten-
tlon to age and wool production.
In purchasing a flock OF breeding
sheep, the age is of Importance be-
cause the period OF profitable useful
ness of eve is somewhat limited
says Mr.. Pew. ''Hence it is well TO
look to the mouth. Uniformity OF
flock is-also of Importance because it
means more uniformity OF lambs pro-
duced. Good fleeces are Of Importance
They should be compact, of choice
quality and cover the entire body. A
great many sheep are absolutely bare
of wool on the entire under part OF
the body, which will only be revealed
upon investigation. Freedom from dis
ease is another point that should be
looked to carefully. Particularly the
diseases of sheep such as scab and in.
testinal parasites, which are hard to
observe except from general character
of the flock. Sheep that are continu-
ally coughing might we'll be let alone" "

ANIMAL TUBERCULOSIS GROWS.
Inspection Shows Considerable Gain in
the Number of Affected Cattle
Slaughtered in Iowa.

Although much educational work
berculosis and efforts have been made
to eliminate it among animals used
for food purposes, this disease seems
to be on the increase among live
stock. Information received by the
agricultural extension department OF
Iowa state college from the bureau of
animal husbandry at Washington
shows that the percentage of tubercu-
lar cattle and swine now slaughtered
in Iowa packing houses is considerably
larger than it was seven years ago. 1t
is to be remembered, however, that
only part of the animals slaughtered
in Iowa We're grown in the state.
In 1907 the records of inspectors at
Strengthening establishments in Iowa
show that less than $ per cent of the
cattle killed were tubercular and about
1.G9 per cent OF the swine. In 1914
the inspectors reported that 3.66 per
cent of the cattle slaughtered in Iowa
establishments We're 'tubercular and
9.o per cent OI lue SWINE. INiS III
crease is not peculiar,tO Iowa by any
means. but is common throughout the
United States and is probably more
serious elsewhere than i'll Iowa.
These conditions demand new yigi-
lance on the part ofiowa farmers who
grow cattle and swine for market, on
the part OF dairy farmers. and. finally.
on the part of municipal health otil-
cials. Especially important in a fight
against tuberculosis among live stock
is the cooperation of cattle and swine
growers. Legislation cannot accom-
plish much without their willingness
to help stamp out the disease.
Because tuberculosis may enter a
herd and be present for considerable
time without arousing any suspicion,
DR.. C. II. STANCE, head of the veterin-
ary college at Iowa State college.
urges the use of the tuberculin test.
He points out that it is the only re-
liable means of diagnosis. He also
urges that every measure be taken
against the Introduction OF the disease
in herd where the owner buys new
animals to bring into his herd.

DESTROY STATION
illinois Central Loses DeIoit Station
and 17c0 Railway Ties by Fire
Last Friday Afternoon.
Loss BETWEEN $4,000 AND $4,000
Fire Supposed to Have Started From
Live Goals Dropped From Engine
10 Tons Of Coal Burned.

Deloit. May 1O-(Special to the Re-
view)-One of the most disastrous
fires in the history of Deloit occurred
here last Friday afternoon, when the
Illinois Central station was burned
to the ground, the loss running up in
to thousands OF dollars. The fire oc-
Cured shortly after the noon hour and
before it was discovered had gained
such headway that ii was impossible
to get It under control. It is thought
that the blaze started from some live
/ Goals dropped near the station plat
/, form from the local passenger train,
No. IA, Which arrived about nOOn.
Mr. A. Banion, local agent for the
Illinois Central, was at the station
when No. IA came in and delivered
the mail. After it's departure he left
! for his home only q short distance, for
dinner While sitting ut the table
looking out OF the window he noticed
smoke at the depot and hastehed there
to investigate it's origin. Several peo-
pie in the business part OF town also
noticed the smoke and rushed to the
station. to render their assistance.
The fire seemed to have started at
the baggage room door and strong
southwest wind caused it to spread
rapidly over the frame building. Sew
eral barrels OF oil in the baggage
room became ignited, causing fire
of very intense character The
smoke from the burning building was
dense, probably due to the fact that
: ten tons OF coal stored in the baggage
room for the use OF the agent. tOgeth-
er with several barrels of oil, became
ignited.
The damage is estimated at between
three and four thousand dollars with
small amount OF insurance upon the
building. Fortunately, the station
hooks, together with valuable pa
pers were removed from the office by
the agent after the fire started. Con
siderable amount OF furniture belong
ihGytOs Agent ,Ba,tion and some stored
iii 'ti1es baggage room belonging to i.
NJ Warner was completely destroyed.
A pile of 1900 railway ties and 200
fence posts near the station caught
fire from the intense heat and we're a
total loss.
The railway officials rushed crew
of workmen to- the scene Friday af
ternoon and repaired the twisted and
warped track in front of the station
so that train service was not inter-
fered with to any great extent. A box
car has been fitted up for temporary
station and another car was put in
place today for the purpose OF bag
gage room. Telegraph service was re-
sumed after only two hours delay,
linemen from TT. Dodge making the
necessary repairs.
1t was fortunate thing indeed that
the fire did not extend further, but
the wind happened to be in the right
direction SO that the danger to other
buildings was averted. Deloit citi-
zens should wake up to the fact that
ample fire protection should be ar
ranged for.
