accomplish any very great good, at
least they cannot accomplish perman-
ent good unless the parents and tax

cholera. The next day WI vaccinated
272 head Of hogs and at the time of
writing this article, September 4 there
had been no losses reported. On the
farm where the second infection was
reported 146 mead were ~vaccinated and
is interesting to note that In both cases
no losses have yet been reported. II
is Interesting tc note hat In both cases
a great many extremely high tempera-
lures were reported. In all during
this first week In the field with the
inspector we vcacinated very close TO
$50 head OF hogs scattered over a wide
area OF territory and 10 date there have
been no losses reported, so ] leave II
TO your own conclusions as to whether
or not, systematic and intelligent
handling OF hte situation pays. IL
must be constantly borne In mind how
ever, that there are serums and
serums. No farmer should permit any
salesman OF quack cholera remedies
on his farm. lie might even carry
germs from some other farm he may
have visited. Nor should he permit
any veterinarian TO treat his hogs who
does not understand his business and
no serum not made under a govern
ment license should be used. Serum
must be made under extreme sanitary
conditions and Uncle Sam has gone
far enough into the manufacture and
use OF serum to know just what he is
talking about. Carelessly made serum
Is a menace and we are able to point
TO several cases In the state OF Idaho
where doing the past four months
such serum has been used with fatal
results. On the other hand we know
OF one case al least where a large ship
ment OF hogs were given a clean bill
Of health by an incompetent inspector
and when the shipment arrived at It's
destination the entire lot was con-
demned TO the %incinerator all Of them
being more or less infected with
cholera. Thus II will be seen that
only the utmost care will aid IN CON
tolling, and let us hope, In wiplng out
this dread disease.

A Summary Of the Work In This
Station.

Perhaps the most remarkable
the serum and the method of handling
the outbreak was made IN the small
territory on the south side known as
Sucker Flat where In 1913 the loss
OF hogs before the station was opened
was 66 per cent OF the entire number
raised. Since the station has been
In operation there have been practi-
cally 10 losses. Throughout the en-
tire district handled by the station the
losses have been reduced to almost
nothing. The territory is well organ
lied, the farmers have come to a full
understanding of the great importance
of prompt and active cooperation with
the inspectors, and above all they have
been taught the great Importance OF
using only extreme sanitary precau-
tons. All dead are burned.
All pens are carefully and thoroughly
disinfected under the direction of the
the quarantine work. Sick hogs are
promptly reported to the Twin Falls
office and every suggestion made by
the office is carefully followed out.
On the other hand the inspectors have
built up this wonderful work by the
utmost attention to the needs of the
farmer. Courtesy and a kindly iDten-
ton always displayed toward the farm
or has built up a friendship for the
service that cannot be broken down.
There IL no letting down for a moment
by the inspectors In the rigidity with
which rules OF conduct are obeyed.
II they order n dog killed he Is killed,
II "A band OF pigeons make their APP
pearance they are killed by the farmer
without waiting for instructions. No
stray hoss are allowed IN the roads
and no farmer would ror II moment
think of allowing his hogs to trespass
upon n neighbor. II there is a quaran-

last letter. No n comes on that

MADISON'S POPULATION WILL

THAT NUMBER.

City Assessor Burnett has about
completed the work of taking the
census of Madison and his cards up
to last evening showed IN enumera-
tion of 1906. Mr.. Burnett does not
hope to more than turn into the
1000 column. This is a sure enough
honest count as 1t would be impos-
sible to induce Leslie to become an
expansionist in any of his official
work. Many towns, notably Iowa

but not SO with Madison. Mr.. Bur-
nett allowed all the transient State
Normal school students to escape. he
declined to list the big membership
of the county teachers institute in
session last week, and none of the
transient teachers OF the summer
school in session at the State Normal
buildings have been listed. And then
what a bonanza it would have been
to have listed the street carnival
crowds last week. But the modesty
of Madison in comparison to many
other towns Topped off all OF this

BOAT LANDINGS
CHAUTAUQUA OFFICIALS AND
BURT STACY LOCK HORNS
ON THE PROPOSITION.

Burt Stacy, the Lake Madison boat
man, who visited Sioux Falls yester-
day to obtain legal advice in regard
to boat landings. was advised that the
chautauqua association had complete
control of their shore line. The
point at issue is that Mr.. Stacy who
owns two excursion boats on the
lake, the Siren and the Pioneer, de-
sired to establish a complete line
around the lake which would give
him a sailing distance of about four
teen miles. He asked the privilege
of installing a landing pier on the
shore line of the chautauqua grounds
for the convenience of passengers,
but the request vas declined by the
chautauqua officials, but they pro-
posed to grant the privilege for a con-
idseration of $25 a year. Mr.. Stacy
then proposed that he would pay the
concession named if the officers
would bear the expense of installing
the pier. This they declined to do.
Mr.. Stacy then obtained legal coun-
sci on the proposition with a view of
installing a pier on the chautauqua
ShOiC iiht vi HE OMh dtNOdhit bdN
was advised that the association had
legal title to the shore line bordering
their grounds and that a pier could
not be installed on their property
without their consent. And there the
matter rests. Mr.. Stacy is in doubt
as to how he will proceed to obtain
pier facilities for the accommodation
of his boats.

PASSED AWAY
MRS. SMITH DIED AT THE HOME
OF HER DAUGHTER LAST
NIGHT.

Mrs. Celestina Eurilla Smith died
at the home of her daughter, Mrs.

N. b. Smith removed to Pennsylvania
coming to Spring Valley, Mimi, in
1857 to reside, removing to Orton-
vile, Mimi, in 1888, and taking up
their home in Madison in 1887. She
was bereft of her husband who died
in this city in 1896. Until Of late
months the aged lady had enjoyed
good health, spending the winter sea-
sons in Florida the past thirteen
years until the past winter she be-
came too feeble to make the journey
to the southland. Socially she was
well known in the community, espe-
cially among the people of the Metho-
dist church society of which denom-
ination she was a consistent member
and Christian lady. She was the
mother of three children, Mrs. Dora
Johnson and Mrs. Minnie Farmer of
this city and Mr.. c. III. Smith of
Spring Valley, Mimi, who with his
wife was here a few days ago to call
on the mother in her illness and who
will return to attend the funeral.
Arrangements are being completed
for the funeral which will be held
from the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Farmer Thursday morning at 10
o'clock, conducted by Rev. G.. ID.

church.
