DON'T FORGET THE
TUBERCULOSIS
CONFERENCE

The immediate and hearty response
to the announcement of the North
western conference to be held in
Portland, October 1916, promises
from the standpoint of attendance
to put Washington in the lead among
the visiting states participating in
the meeting. ,
requests for programs and gen
eral information about the Confer
ence are pouring into the offices of
the Washington tuberculosis Asso-
clatlon, 916 Cobb Building, Seattle.
Anyone interested may secure ma
terial by communicating with the as
ISOLATION.
Read the following comparative
statistics from the official death rec
ords of the state for 1916 and de-
eide If it is not a civic and pa
triotic duty to become interested in
the tuberculosis problem in Wash
lngton. Deaths from typhoid, rs;
whooping, rs; measles, Is; scarlet
fever, 10; diphtheria, 35; smallpox, 2;
F, tuberculosis, 1928.
In addition to being the most Sc
rious problem of civil life, tuber-
culosis has proven to be the greatest
health menace of the war. The
Northwestern tuberculosis Confer
ence will emphasize this phase of
the subject and seek the most prac-
tical solution to the question of
meeting the increase of cases which
seems certain to come as a result of
participation in the war.
Washington has at present in op-
GRAFTON or under construction about
400 beds for tuberculous cases, rs
of which are for children. Com
parison with the annual deaths shows
at least 1000 beds are needed for
civil cases alone. Where and how
are the tuberculous soldiers of
Washington to be restored to health?
AS every community must ultimate
ly answer that question, at least one
delegate from every city and county
in the state should attend the con-
ference in Portland, October 1916.
Render patriotic and practical serv-
ice by "going to the front" on the
tuberculosis problem.

peaceable, NONRESIDENT policy they
had adopted, was precisely what the
mining company hoped for. There
was none from that time onward.
At Columbus the men come and
go from their camp at will, spend
ing the evenings in the town and
returning early, usually at 8 o'clock.
There has been the best of order,
though 1900 idle men are on the
edge of the little town. The SOL
diers encamped there have learned
to like the strikers and there is not
even semblance of friction.
One thinks of Mr.. Cleary as
sort of knight-errant in the industrial
struggle. A capable lawyer, he was
early given to understand he could
have everything that a loyal cor
poration attorney gained, if he would
become one. Instead, he has de-
votedly himself chiefly to aiding the
progressive forces in the town and
state, and only incidentally to de-

course.

Mr.. Cleary was taken from mo-
tor July II as he was on his way to
Douglas, Ariz. Armed men told
him they had been ordered to head
him off and take him to Bisbee. He
was placed on the cattle car train
with the strikers. This was because
of his power as a speaker and a
lawyer Even his enemies con-

TO STOP HOG CHOLERA,
PUBLIC CAN HELP MUCH
DR.. Nj. Jacob, State Veterinarian, Tells
of State Wide Educational
Campaign.

"To anyone interested in or identi-
fled with livestock sanitary control
work it is apparent that success In
the control and eradication of trans
missable diseases depends in great
measure on intelligent public coopera-
ton. This is especially true with dis
eases that are widespread, and of
which hog cholera furnishes an ex-
cellent example," said DIR. M. Jacobs,
state veterinarian, when interviewed
on this question.
'In those communities where we
have been able to develop deep inter-
est and intelligent appreciation of the
true nature of hog cholera, most excel
lent progress is being made and the
losses materially lessened. For the
past year or more we have carried on
an educational campaign, principally
in the form of public meetings and
demonstrations, carrying the work in
to those sections where it appears to
be most needed. The result of these
meetings were so apparent that we
decided to strengthen our plan in such
a way, so that it could be carried into
all parts of the state as quickly as
possible under the most advantage
GUS conditions.
ITO do this an agreement has re-
Gently been perfected between the Uni-
ted States bureau of animal industry,
the division of extension of the col
lege of agriculture of the University
of Tennessee, and the state depart
ment of agriculture, as the three CO.

cholera educational campaign to be
Immediately directed from the office
of the state veterinarian. By this ar
rangement two veterinarians are de-
voting their entire time to hog chol-
era, namely: Dr. Robert Jay, who rep
resents the United States bureau Of
animal industry as hog cholera spe-
cialist, and DIR. C. Dillon White, who
became associated with the state de-
partment of agriculture during the
past year as assistant in hog cholera
control. 1t is our present purpose to
carry this work into every county in
the state during the next twelve month
and will consist of lectures and dem
onstrations, which, under proper con-
ditions will be supplemented with ster-
eopticon views.
an those counties having farm DEM
onstration agents working under the
division of extension all arrangements
for holding of educational hog cholera
meetings will be made through them.
Where there is no county agent the
meetings will be arranged through
other actively interested channels, such
as progressive farmers, commercial
bodies, banking institutions, merchants
etc. Every phase of hog cholera will
be dealt upon, but laying unusual
stress on how to prevent, control and
eradicate this disease on given farm
or community.

years old, however, its general appear
ance is relied upon largely to indicate
its age. Following is description of
the yearly changes which ordinarily
occur in the teeth of horse.
One Year.-The center pair of milk
incisors, known as the pincers, and
the pair next to them, known as the
intermediates, are we'll through the
gums and in contact, but the corner
pairs do not yet meet on level.
Two Years.-The pinchers and the
intermediates indicate that they are
being crowded by the permanent teeth,
as they are pushed free from the gums
at their base. By the time the colt is
two and one-half years old the middle
pinchers should be through. The per-
manent teeth are much larger than
the temporary ones.
Three years.-The middle pinchers
are large enough for use. Their deep
cups show plainly. The milk inter-
mediates are about to be shed.
Four Years.-The permanent inter
mediates appear at three and half
years and are ready for use at four
The corner teeth give evidence that
permanent corners are coming. The
cups in the pinehers are about one
third gone. THE tusks or canine
teeth of male colts may appear about
this time.)
Five Years.-The temporary corner
teeth are shed at four and half and
the permanent ones are ready to use.
The horse now has what is known as a
full mouth, all permanent incisors be-
ing ready to use. The cups of the first
pair are about two-thirds gone.
Six Years.-The cups in the center
pair have nearly disappeared In the
second pair they are about two-thirds
gone.
Seven Years.-The cups from the
second pair are now gone. There is a
notch in the upper corner tooth where
it overlaps the lower ne.
Eight Years.-The cups have all
worn out of the lower nippers, we now
look at the upper jaw. Although cups
remain in the center pair they are not
deep.
Nine Years.-The cups in the center
pair of nippers on the upper jaw have
disappeared. They are still present in
the other two pairs, however, being
fairly deep in the corner ones.
Ten Years.-The cups are worn out
of the second pair of nippers on the up
per jaw, although they are still pres
ent in the corner pair.
Older Horses.-At IL years all the
cups are usually worn out of the in
cisors and it becomes necessary to use
some other indication. Estimates OF
age may now be based upon the angle
at which the teeth meet, their change
in size and shape. AS the horse gets
older, the teeth meet more and more at
an acute angle; that is, the jaws be-
come more oblique. As the teeth wear
down, the shape of the worn ends
changes from oval to more nearly
round, and finally in an aged horse to
nearly triangular form. Sometimes
cups are cut or burned in the teeth OF
old horses to make their mouths re-
semble those of younger animals. This
practice, known as "Bishoping" may
be detected if the shape of the teeth
and the absence of the ring of enamel
which surrounds the natural cup are
noted, After horse is IL years ole
its condition is more important thar
its age in determining values.

propriated By Congress on the basis Of
the cost estimates made year ago.
And because shipbuilders could not
alter the memorable cost facts and re
duce bids to early estimates of the
Navy Department. the prices are called
'exorbitant."

relieved of this naval construction. The
profit from it cannot possibly amount
to much, and the responsibility is enor
