From the sub basement to the roof the
hospital which Mr.. Greeley has built
for the city of Ames represents the last
word of hospital construction, and no
money has been spared to make it
complete in every detail. Workmen are
now busy putting on the interior fin
ishing touches and cabinet makers are
building shelves, desks, cabinets and
other permanent equipment for the
kitchen, linen room, diet; kitchens and
dressing rooms.
After the hospital has been COM
pleted and equipped, Ames will have
an institution than which there is none
better in the state. No definite an
nouncement of the opening of the hos
pital can be made at this date, but It
is expected that patients will be ad-
mitted about Oct. 1.

Newton, Aug. 23.-Dr. Mark F. Boyd
the state epidemiologist, was in New
ton again to make further report on
the cases Of typhoid fever. In his re-
port, on DULY %, when there were only
nine cases, he found the cause of the
epidemic to be contaminated milk
bottles, distributed along the milk
route of "Dairyman X" In his sub
sequent report, received by the mayor
he says:
. The additional facts ascertained in
subsequent investigation do not war
rant any change in the conclusions
presented in the first report" He finds
that there We're actually twenty cases
of typhoid fever in Newton, and that
milk from Dairy X' was the only
article of food which all patients had
in common. With the exception Of
milk and water, their articles OF food
came from as many different sources
as there were patients. Five cases
used city water exclusively, one had
not had any city water. The others
had been drinking both city water and
that from wells. In his deductions DR..
Boyd holds that the cases of fever
would have been more general
and would have prevailed among the
heavy exclusive users of city water
had the germs been in water.
The epidemiolosist states emphati-
cally that typhoid germs must be
taken into the mouth.
BY careful deductions. which tell of
the general health Of the patients, DR..
Boyd concludes that they We're inoccu-
lated with typhoid germs as follows:
July ,. !; July 9, 5; July %. 10;
July 80, 4.
The concluding paragraph of the re-
port says: From the available evil
dence l therefore conclude that during
July. 1916, typhoid fever spread along
the milk route Of ''Dairyman X" due
to the use of contaminated milk bottles
and containers which have received
contamination while upon premises
where existed a case of typhoid at that
time unrecognized."
DR.. Boyd's report is long, and it
gives many details Of his investiga-
tons He has worked out series of
interesting deductions to prove that all
infections were received from conta-
minated milk bottles along the route
of "Dairyman x"

pect Big European Orders.

Chicago Aug. 23.-When Europe
stops fighting and starts to rebuild
towns for her people to live in, it eX-
poets the United States to go to its aid.
Already plans are being made to buy
not only raw lumber but knocked down
houses, which will be shipped across
the ocean and set up, not singly but by
the village.
The initial step, by which the Unit
ed States government for the first time
takes active part with American indus
try o go out and get trade, to become
a travelling salesman and procure or
ders, was taken in Chicago, when DR..
Z. Z. Pratt from Washington, chief of
the bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce, met representatives of the
federal trade commission and twenty
lumber companies to outline cam
Europe. ...
Heretofore the government, thru
consular reports on business and trade
conditions in foreign countries, has in
directly aided American manufacturers,
but in this case the government has
provided for committee which Will SO
to Europe about Nov. l to-inyestigate
conditions further and begin the cam
paign with the foreign buyers. r. ii.
bowman, OF New Orleans, president of
the National Lumber Manufacturers
association, was chosen as the head OF
the committee. ,,..
Reports read show that all Europe is
practically denuded of trees. In Bel
GUM the forests are entirely destroyed.
and the nation is so physically wrecked
that the rebuilding will have to be
financed by the major powers.
THE plan of rebuilding France as
outlined by the French governmental
authorities" he said, lis to have the
towns and villages on the community
LASTS. with model farms on the Ameri-
ran plan. 1t is planned to order knock
ed down houses which can be set up
RAPIDLY and in wholesale quantities. The
French government has already offered
to buy enormous quantities OF railroad
timber on twelve months interest bear
ing notes"
The lumbermen said the shipment of
large quantities of lumber would re-
lieve serious competition here.
Those at the conference were II. S.
Graves. head Of the United States for
est service. and w. H. Parry and Jo-
seph z. Davies of the federal trade
commission. together with representa-
tives of the National Manufacturers

Cedar Rapids.
One case Of infantile paralysis has
been found in Cedar Rapids. Or:
David Beardsley city physician, in
formed the council Monday that in
fantile paralysis had infected a child
in the family living at 221 Fifth ave
nue. west. The physicians expressed
an opinion that the case was light
one and that the child was not con-
fined to its bed Saturday one arm
had been partially paralyzed but II is
understood that the use of the member
has been regained today. The child
had been i'll for few days and the
attending physician after he had dag
nosed the case as infantile paralysis
reported the matter TO the city ply
stefan. Some hope had been expressed
by the physicians that the first dag
nosis might have been in error but a
careful noting of the symptoms left no
doubt.
MeGregor.
There is rejoicing in the heart and
home of an aged veteran living near
McGregor over letter received from
the war department. To have served
four years in the army and fought in
seventy Ave battles, to have received a
crooked arm and crushed skull in the
service and contracted dis ease which
has made him sufferer for fifty years
and yet to have been branded disioyal
and undeserving a pension has been
the lot Of Edward LOBBY. BY special
act of congress Of Aug. IA the stigma
unjustly attached to his war record
has been blotted out and soon the pen
sion he has long asked for, long de-
served and needed. and long been de-
MED, will come. The promise Of f1nan-
cial help in his few remaining years
is welcome news to the old soldier
who, handicapped by health. has had
long hard fight against poverty, but
his Joy is greater over the removal of
the charge of desertion which has
made the years bitter to him.
Nashua.
The Nashua wooden mill is working
to full capacity with a great many
orders ahead for army blankets The
demand is so great that the wooden
mills; of this country can not begin to
supply IT, This is the only mill in
iowa making army blankets. The
blankets are now being made for the
foreign armies, but all wooden mills
are working to full capacity trying to
fill the orders for the United States
government. Mr.. Bowen, proprietor
Of the Nashua wooden mill, states that
he is getting all his wool from Africa
| and Australia and paying as high as
ISL pound for the grade used in army
blankets. These blankets weigh five
pounds and are made according 70
specifications furnished by the United
States government The black dyes
| used in these are from Germany, as
our domestic dyes are Of insufficient
strength and quality. The price is
now IS a pound, where before it was
40 cents a pound. The blankets are
an Oxford gray, which Is s. per cent
black. One of the greatest difficulties
J here as in all wooden mills is scarcity
