business has been irreparably injured for this season, so at recent meeting we have decided that the city commission take some measures to protect health and at the same time issue some offi- cial statement that would help us out. We are all in favor of your ordinance and think that it will help the situation Pas teurization is absolutely necessary and sincerely hope the city commission will stand firm on that section of the ordi- nance"
 pr. c. C. Lumsden, the United States typhoid expert now in the city to advise the local medical authorities on how to successfully combat the epidemic also stated before the city commission that pasteurization of milk was absolutely nec- essary to make ice cream in a sanitary manner.
 Another subject taken up at the meet ing was to make doctors report all in fectious disases by telephone and then to follow it up with written report giving the history of the case and whether any members of the family of the patient are employed at places where foodstuffs and drinks are prepared. City Attorney Ullman was instructed to prepare an or dinance to that effect.
 Following the meeting Commissioner Hornady said:
 We will pass all of these health or dinances and then we will be prepared to make it impossible for an outbreak in the future. The number of typhoid cases at the present is very large and increas- ing all the time. but we hope within week or 10 days to hold down cases to a minimum and to attain that desire we again urge everyone to get vaccinated and to take all precautions against any infectious disease"

SAYS 8-HOUR DAY ADDED EFFICIENCY
 TO RAILROAD MEN
(By Review Leased Wirej

NEW YORK, Dec Experiments with the eight hour day in the Cleve- land yards of the Nickel Plate Rail way increased individual efficiency of the switchmen more than 10 per cent. according to John MOnihan, general yard master, testifying late today be- Sore the arbitration board in the con- troversy between the switchmen's union and thirteen railroads.
 The witnesses asserted. however. that the speeding up" of the men during the trial was due largely to their eagerness to have an eight hour day adopted permanently and he doubt ed if they would have kept up their pace after the eight hour day had been granted.
 Monihan testified that the eight hour day was discontinued because he was ordered to stop it without any reason having been given. He con ceded an additional expense was in cured.
 The hearing will be continued to- morrow.

Grainmen of West Assembled
 In Chicago and Take First Steps Against Middlemen- To Sell Direct to Customer.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

CHICAGO, Dec. 7.-Farmers of the great grain states of the middle west and northwest, believing that less than a fair share of the profits of their labor is returned to them, took the first steps here today to establish a cost system for their industry. In con- nection with the National Conference on Marketing and Farm Credits, repre- sentative grain growers discussed vari- ous means of determining marketing costs from the field, through the eleva- tors. the mills and to the housewives oven with the objects of lessening the cost to the consumer and attracting a larger portion of what the consumer pays direct to the producer. MT. Lynn Frazer governor-elect of North Dakota, was the chief speaker. He told of the handicaps that have hindered the shippers of his state.
 Because of lack of storage facilities for potatoes this year." he said, growers were forced to market their potatoes at once and receive an aver age of 80 cents a bushel for potatoes that sold on the market for S1.50 to S1.75 bushel"
 Fred Stout of Ashum. Ills. discussed the cost of handling grain at the coun- try elevators. and O: D. Anderson. president of the Farmers Cooperative Association of South Dakota, spoke Of the farmers views of the terminal grain market

TEUTON ARMIES WELCOMED IN
 ROUMAN|A
Whole Populace' Rejoices and Flowers are Heaped on Con- querors by Bucharest Peo- pie, So Berlin Reports.

The total captures of Rumanians by the forces of the Central Powers since the beginning of the war are reported to have been 100000 men.
 The Rumanian army is still falling back east of Bucharest from the Tran sylvania Alps to the Danube: On the Moldanvian west frontier and farther north along the Bukowina border the Russian attacks against the Austro- Germans have failed.
 Berlin says Bucharest was captured with insignificant fighting and the in vaders entered the town from all sides. being received enthusiastically by the populace and decorated with flowers.
 All Fronts Quiet
 On none of the fronts is an import ant battle in progress. For the most part the artillery wings are doing the greater portion of the work. Berlin reports that the Bulgarians have forced back the British in. the Struma river iowlands, in Macedonia and that the Bulgarians and Germans have com pelled the evacuation by the Serbs Of captured positions near Trnovo, in the Cerna River sector.
 West of Lusk in Volhynia the leu tonic allies have captured Russian posi- tions. Vienna reports that the Italians launched two futile attacks on the Carso fIont of the Austro-Italian thea tre.
 Artillery duels and exploits by raid ing parties continue on the fronts in Belgium and France. The Germans and French are engaged in a spirited artillery battle in the region of Hill 3O4.
 An explanation of the military activ- ity of the Greeks has been demanded by the British. French and Russian ministers at Athens. according to an official dispatch.
