NANCE NEEDED
City Council Should Regulate
Conditions in the Loop.

The City Council should pass an or.
dinance prohibiting people from lott
ering on the sidewalks In the Loop.
Pedestrians should be compelled by
law to keep to the right. As things
are at present, without any sort OF
regulation, some of the down town
streets are almost impossible.

DRIVE ON
FLR AMERICAN RED CROSS

The Red Cross membership drive
is on and you will probably be called
upon by some member of the COM
.mittee to renew your membership to
the society: If you are not called on
do not feel sighted but send in your
fee of $1.00 to Mrs. J. C. Murphy,
treasurer, and your receipt will be
sent you.
The date for the membership cam
paign has been advanced one month
this year owing to the difficulty to
enlist workers at Christmas time;
this has always been the case and on
account Of the homecoming of the
soldiers it will be even more so this
year. Weather conditions, too,
makes it harder for the solicitors to
get around at Christmas time.
Show your Americanism by joining
or renewing your membership to the
American Red Cross. There is still
plenty of work to do for this society.

THE SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC
Quarantine Regulations to Be RisidIyi
Enforced. Law to be lnVoked
If Necessary

There is an epidemic Of smallpox
in the village, and a large number Of
homes have been quarantined The
disease is of a very mild form and is
confined mostly to the children and
younger members of the family
There is nothing in the situation to
cause uneasiness to the people Of the
village; however, the board of health
proposes to take all steps necessary
and authorized by law in handling
the situation, to the end that the
public may be protected against a
further spread of the desease. The
board solicits the earnest and willing
cooperation of the public in this
work; and due regard for the well
fare of the whole community should
lead us, without bubble, to uphold
the authorities in the work they are
thus trying to do for our mutual
protection. =
For the enforcement of quarantine
and health regulations the board OF
health has ample authority under the
law. Every member of the board of
health is held responsible for the
performance of his duties, and pen
alties are provided for neglect Of
same. Others, too, have duties tt
perform and responsibilities to meet,
with penalties provided for neglect,
For the purpose of performing
their duties members of health boards
and health officers have the right to
enter any and all places where a
contagious disease is reasonably sus7
pected, and any person who interfears
with the performance of such duties
is punishable by Imprisonment or
fine. :
The local board Of health has adop-
ted strict quarantine regulations, and
hereafter no member of a quaran-
tined household is permitted to de-
part from the premises. The bread
winner, or any other member of quar-
antined family, must live apart from
the family if he desires to continue
at work that takes him away from
the premises.
There has been a good deal Of
speculation about town recently as to
the power of the health board to en-
force it's orders, ard It is we'll for
those who question the authority of
the board to forget it" and make up
their minds to play the parts Of good
citizens.

MAP OF THE NEW EUROPE
q 5.e. OFFERED TO SCHOOLS

What school wants a colored map
Eof t'The New Europe?
Uncle Sam offers one free to every
seven room school that has the pep
to go after it.. Pm ,ss .. g.
Distribution has been arranged BY
the War Savings Organization in the
Ninth Federal District and NJ E.
Harrison, Director, explains the plan
in this way: .<.s., -. i :. > ).
"The government has printed in
colors a map showing, as accurately
as possible, the war made boundries
of the old world. Every teacher will
recognize the value of such a map.
The government hasn't enough to
supply, every school room but our
organization can supply one for every
seven room school. We suggest that
each room have prize writing con-
test, the essays dealing with thrift
subject and being limited. to 100
words.
"The teacher of each room should
select the most promising essay and
the essavs thus selected from each
building should be sent to the city
or county superintendent who will
cause the final award to be made"
AS the contest will be brought to
a close on November Is, it is inpera-
tive that every school that wishes to
obtain one Of these government maps
act at once. Any teacher can get
further info nation from. the city
or county superintendent.

TO LOGGERS AND OTHERS
EXPECTING TO CUT TIMBER

Plans for operations in the woods
will soon be under way for the COM
ing season. It's our desire to work
still more in harmony with the oper-
ators this season than was possible
last year. In order that your work
may not be hampered after logging
has commenced it is advisable that
an early understanding be reached as
to the areas to be cut over and the
methods of brush disposal to be en-
ployed. I wish, therefore, that you
would let me know at the earliest
possible date just what land you
intend to log or let contract for
logging the coming season. I will
then be i'm position to look over the
land more thoroughly and in CO.
operation with you decide upon the
best and most economical methods
of brush disposal for each particular
type of timber.
In accordance with the law, notices
setting forth the descriptions of
lands must be conspicuously dis
played at camps where any cutting is
being done.

District Ranger.

Bureau
NUMBER I j = .

The sucssssf y sIs Of cream
through the farmers warehouse as.
sociation will ndoubtedly lead to an
increase in the number Of cows IN
this county. It is, therefore, perti-
nent to direct attention to the neces-
sity for better cows, as the farmer
with one low producing cow will
certainly be little better off with two
such cows. The average production
Of dairy cows in the United States
is around 155 to 100 pounds Of butter
fat per year. In considering these
figures it must be remembered that
the high producing COW counter.
balance the low ones and that there
must be, therefore, many cows pro-
ducing below the average. 100
pounds of butter-fat- at an average
price Of SO cents per pound means
$50: To this must be added the
value Of the separated milk, a calf,
and fertilizer. On the other side of
the account must be charged the
value of summer pasture, winter feed,
labor, interest on investment and de-
probation. The farmer does not need
to be a professor of mathematics
also to demonstrate that the common
cow, or even the, average COW, will
not do for Cook county with it's high
cost of feeds and labor: The farmer
should set the mark at not less than
200 pounds of butter-fat per cow and
when that is reached advance it to
250 or 800 pounds. Having set the
mark, how .Nshall production be
brought up to it? Well, it can't be
done by guessing but it can be done
by sending the scrub bull to the
butcher and replacing him with
tpure bred by keeping simple records
Of the milk and butter-fat produced
of each COW, and from such records
the wedding out of the unproftable
ones. The cow testing association of
this and other states show this work
in progress. One Of the many dem
onstrations of what can be done along
such lines is the, work carried on at
the Grand Rapids Farm, for several
years under the management of A. j.
Mcclure. Starting with common
cows, which in 1905 averaged less
than 1876 pounds of butter-fat, and
using pure bred bulls the average
butter-fat production Of the herd
reached 1851 pounds in 1917. This
was done under ordinary good farm
conditions such as are within the
reach of any Cook county farmer. If
the farmer decides to add to his herd
let him know something about what
he is buying. It is no longer neces-
sary to add common COWS to his herd.
Good grade heifers Of milking strains
can be bought more reasonably than
can mature cows of merit, as few
dairynen wish to dispose Of their
best producers unless at a cores
pondingly high price. Farmers who
are looking forward to increasing
their herd next spring should call on
the county agent for assistance in
locating and buying what they want.
! He is in touch with the county agents
in the dairying sections of the state
and can obtain reliable information
as to the quality of stock offered.
