AND STATE OFFICIALS.
C0aMlTTEE IS APPOINTED
Plans TO Be Worked Out Whereby
Money Can Be Borrowed to
Buy Stump Puiiers or Dyna-
mite to Clear Lands.

Rhinelander - Plans of statewide
scope. whereby stump pulling demon
STATIONS can be conducted and eff.
fective means found for helping new

cutover lands of upper Wisconsin will
be figured out by a special committee
appointed here at a meeting attended

FINDS CHILD PLAGUE GERM
Or. n. r. Burrows of Johns Hopkins
Asserts lnfantiie Paralysis Is
Caused by Milk or Water.

Baltimore, Md, Oct. 1.-THE mys-
terry surrounding the cause of the
spread of Infantile paralysis has been
solved, according To an official an
T1ouncement made on Sunday at Johns
Hopkins hospital Extensive research
conducted by Dr. Horace r. Burrows,
pathologist of the hospital has result
ed In the discovery of the infantile
paralysis germ. the existence of which
was established nine years ago by Dr.
Simon Florner of the Rockefeller in
stftute.
According TO Doctor Burrows. the
disease Is not spread by cOntagion but
the germ is introduced into the human
system through the mouth in milk or
water.
Present always in every case of the
disease germ has been found in the
big intestine. showing that the disease
is spread by some raw food.
The investigators find that house
flies and other insects undoubtedly
help TO spread the germ from one food
TO another.
The spread Of the disease IS so much
like that of typhoid fever and its
method Of communication that the in
vesdgators are sure they have hit upon
way TO make an antipoiomyelitis vac
cine like the antityphoid vaccine that
stamped out typhoid IN the United
States army

sARBED WIRE PRODUCTION.

According 10 the census publica-
tons, the United States produced $13,-
7G4.357 worth OF barbed wire during
the year 1914. This would be little
over SO worth of barDed wire for each
farmer In the United States, CON-
ments Wallace's Farmer. 1t is inter
esting to note that we produced about
Sc, 900, 900 worth more of woven wire
and poultry netting than barbed wire.
During the five years prior to 1914
the wire industry of the United
States had been practically station
airy. Figures since that date are not
available, but will probably show a
greatly increased production OF
barbed wire on account of the large
use being made of 1t on the battle
fields of Europe. In trench warfare
barbed wire is used to form an en-
tanglement as a protection to the
trenches. 1t is loosely strung on
posts when there is time for doing
thfs-but 1t has been found almost
equally as effectiye when simply I'M
rolled, fastened at both ends and
pegged down to the gronnd occa-
Sionally.

New Plans Suggested
II. TO- Them

drivers think If they saw their favor

tomatically from left to right and
back aga;1 without and of the mo-
lions. kicks. whistles and antics so
characteristic of several officers that
they would seem unnatural withoat
ft?-
Sheriff Charles II. Rose. who is
home from a three months trip on
| the mainland with High Sheriff Viii
| liam p. Jarrett, is full of praise for
Los Angeles traffic management. In
that city the policeman merely turns
his fact from one street to another
to direct the stream of cars. autos and
vehicles. and the plan works admir-
ably well, says Rose. .."=
The sheriff says he may try the
plan here for he believes there would
be less confusion at the corners. The
Los Angeles way there Is no doubt in
drivers mind of the officers or
ders. If the officer stands parallel
with a certain street tas the police
men do here, only with arms extend
ed, that street is clear. Vehicles
continuing straight, either way, have
the right Of way, or If the vehicles on
the clear" street wish to turn to
either side, at the corner, they may
do SO without further signaling, as
soon as there is a proper opening.
There is no waving, whistling or
beekoning. d. ..-...f.: se%. e.
As a result of Rose and Jarrett's
visit to several mainland prisons the
finger-print md Bertillon identified
ton systems may be inaugurated here
following the opening Of the new ter
ritorial JAIL Leavenworth and San

to apply several ideas obtained in the

show prison interiors. ...... r"
I'VE were relieved of our kodaks
as we went in the door, in every in
stance" says Rose. ~. ~
Jarrett believes that the finger
print and Bertillon systems could be
started first at the territorial prison
and the counties could later recsive
instructions from the prison expert.
The contemplated arrangement
would be model of the intricate but
comprehensive system in the states
whereby every report goes through
Leavenworth. That Is, If a convict
escaped from San Quentin his mea-
surements would go to Leayenworth;
If q suspected convict were picked up
by Sing Sing his measurements would
likewise 60 to L.eayenworth ~ Cempar-
ing notes, officials at the latter insti-
tuition would make proper deductions.
