Cascade

Dubuque, July 17.-There was prac-
tically no change in the infantile para
lysis situation her today, except that
four new cases were reported to the
board Of health. This makes a total
of nearly sixty cases now on file, and
nine deaths up to date.
1t was announced today that all
children found playing on the streets
would be picked up by the police,
and their parents warned. If the same
children are found twice the parents
will be prosecuted.
The milk is being investigated, to
see if faulty milk is the cause of the
spread.
One case of the disease was discov
cred at Cascade, near here in Dubuque
county and DR.. z. c. Rosnnow. the
Rochester specialist. treated the pa
tent Immediately. No other cases have
been reported from the surrounding
territory.
The situation is regarded as eX
tremely serious by local physicians
who intimate that still more stringen
quarantine regulations may be en-
forced Police are still guarding rail
way stations, stopping all children
from leaving the city.

LARGEST SINCE WAR STARTED
drops OF the Country Makes New Rec.
ord. Wheat Conservation Must
Continue.

burlington, Ia, July 1.-THE United
States Food Administration officials at
Washington, incline to believe that
the crop production of this year will
be the largest in the history of the
war.
so many men will go from the
farms and other industries that il is
thought that decreased food produc.
ton will ensue next year and the year
following, so long as the war contin-
ues. sven
That, II develops, Is one of the
prime motives for the erection of a
great food reserve which will guard
the civilized world against any pos.
sible peril from hunger until the war
Is over This being the peak year of
agricultural production, it is the year
to prepare for the FUTURE.
The 1917 crop was seven per cent
under normal. IF it had been Is or
20 per cent" says communication
from Washington, ''the allied cause
would have been lost. A food surplus
Is necessity OF war conditions"
To build this reserve OF food wheat
conservation must go on. The sugar
conservation Is due to an immediate,
pressing shortage Of sugar. Meat con
ditions also depend on meat shipping
and control. at present. is matter
OF limiting beef rations TO pound and
q quarter OF clear beef per weekly per
person, which Is being successfully
done.

- Compiegne was the gate through

When the Red Cross, under the di-

soldiers a day passed through its
streets, but none rested there. The
