ut is said that Villas wounds were

The war department did not place

Villa Is alive. The state department,

Two Additional Cases.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July s.
Though two additional cases of in
fantile paralysis, both at Blue Island,
Cook county, were reported to the
state board Of health today, DR.. G.
st. Clair Drake, secretary of the
board, believes the outbreak has
been halted.
Railroads are reporting all cases
of infants coming from New York
to this state. Rules of the state board
of health for the control of the dis
ease were amended today to require
immediate report by wire by local
health authorities of every case
which may develop. The rules re-
garding quarantine of such cases
were amended to keep the patient
confined for five weeks and also con-
fining any persons who continue to
reside on the premises after the dis
ease breaks out until the quarantine
is raised.
The changes went into effect i'm
mediately.

From his loins back he was paralyzed.
With a last desperate effort he
straddled his forelegs, but he could not
brace himself against the backward
sag of dead weight. Gerry felt him
sinking beneath him and suddenly
found himself standing over his pros
trate horse OF True Blue. his forefeet
outstretched, his head and breast still
held high, there was left only great
spirit chained to a fallen and dying
body.
A cry escaped Gerry's lips-a cry of
horror at what he had done. Then
he remembered why he had done 1t
and ran not for the sluice-gate but for
the bridge. AS he reached it the roar
became deafening. There was splin-
tering, cracking sound that, meas
| ured by the great commotion, seemed
| like the tinkle of tiny bell. But there
was something in the sound that called
| to his brain. He cast glance over his
shoulder. The monster beams of his
sluice-gate, hurled, splintered, into the
air, were still hanging against the blue
sky. Under them surged an angry
| white wall of racing water. Even as
| he started to run down the long slope
to the house Gerry thought with
great relief that If the gate had been
closed it would have gone even so, like
matchwoOd.
Below him Fazenda Flores lay peace
| full. still, under the blazing sun. The
| cotton was little wilted but high and
strong, the cane stunted but alive.
Only in the pasture bottoms the stock
had gathered in frightened clumps.
| Their instinct had told them that dan
ger lowered near. Suddenly from the
quiet house burst Margarita, carrying
her son on one arm. She had seen
Gerry from window. While the 9TH
ers watched the rising river, and now
this terrifying torrent bursting down
upon them from above, she had slipped
out to run to him.
| The house at Fazenda Flores stood
on domed mound. Behind the mound
was a slight hollow before the steady
rise to the bridge began. Gerry caught
sight of Margarita as she ran down
towards this hollow. Terrified, he cast
a glance at the descending flood and
his eye measured its pace against hers.
$50 backw he shouted with all the
strength Of his lungs, and waved his
arms. 1t was as though he had not
spoken. Through the din and roar of
the flood the sound Of the words scarce
| ly reached his own ears.
At the very bottom Of the hollow
Margarita felt that she was stepping

American silo in Holland.

The first American ensilage tower in
Holland, which was erected last year
on the Johannahoeve farm at Ooster-
beck by the Institute for Agricultural
Improvement, has given such good re-
suits that two other towers are now
to be built ON the same farm, which
will provide sufficient ensilage maize
to keep the entire farm stock during
next winter.
The head of the JohannahOeve pro-
iect asserts that the American method
is preferable to that hitherto in use
there. An excellent fodder for all
kinds of animals is thus produced, he
says, while the losses by fermentation
are considerably less. He comes to
the conclusion that as many as A
COWS can be maintained on 81 acres
by the new method, and that with ex-
elusive stable feeding they might even
be maintained on about 221a acres,
only an albuminous fodder needing to
be added in the winter.
