kIDDER COUNTY
WOMAN A LEPER

A woman named Houst, AZ years
old, residing at Crystal Springs, Kid
der county, who has been declared a
leper, will be segregated in a dwell
ing far from any other human being
under orders from state authorities.
Armed with the official order, Sher-
if Bilbin and Mrs. Rose Lewis, nurse
attached to the state board of health,
are in Crystal Springs to affect the
isolation. The woman's father and
mother and her 9-year-old fatherless
girl, who have been living with her
constantly, are not infected with the
dread disease.
Case PRONOUNCED Leprosy
The Houst woman for long time
has been considered to be leper but
no action was taken to segregate her
until her case came to the attention
of Mrs. Lewis. An examination was
made by DR.. Rudigo of Bismarck, who
had contact with leprosy in the Phil
ippines and he pronounced it a clear
case. Her relatives have associated
with her constantly and neighbors
have frequented the home. The daugh-
ter has not been permitted to go to
school but is said to have associated
with other people, making frequent
trips to the store.
One Finger Left on Hand
The woman is now approaching the
last stages of the disease. Her con-
dition is horrible. One finger on her
right hand has dropped off, her left
hand is held to her arm only by the
skin and her right arm is in the last
stages Of disintegration. She has a
hole in her frontal bone and is marked
in numerous places about the head.
The woman is believed to have
brought the disease from Russia. The
family has lived at Crystal Springs
for five years.

summer or as cool in the winter Of
course, we have not been here long
enough to know from our own exper-
fence, but from all we can learn the
climate approaches very close to the
ideal.

ROUTE 3 NEWS .
A problem for some one to solve.

n
 In a rice field are two 3 mule teams pulling two gangs each; in the same field are two tractors each one pulling 3 gangs. The tractors % twice as fast as the mule teams. How much more land can the tractors break in Q day than the mule teams # the mule teams break six acres?
 Tom Sparks and George Richmond have sure been turning the soil this week.
 Quite a number are getting down to work in earnest in diseing and break ing their land preparatory to, mak- ing another crop.
 Albert Pauschert is putting Up new fence on the west side of his farm along the public road.
 It looked very much like business the other day to see large tractor in corn stalk field pulling about I2- foot disc harrow cutting the stalks in short pieces and pulverizing the soil The tractor being followed by a manure spreader distributing barn. yard fertilizer by the tons. This was seen on the Albert Birdsong's place. Ed Stratton ana his farme fore have already made q fine showing in breaking land for the 1920 corn and cotton crop.
 Ghas. Paaschert is removing his old steam machinery from his rice power house preparatory to having his new oil machinery installed Mr. Editor is it any wonder that the peach orchard soon goes to ruin and the trees die when 1t is used as a pasture for stock and n6t eulti- vated?
 The good work of fence row clean ing on Route 3 continues. Away with the briars and saplings along the fence row and put some of the best soil in the field in cultivation.
 Quite a number on the route have already planted corn. It seems to me it is a little earlier than usual They are probably trying to head of pos sible drouth.
