A SIDELIGHT ON THE
49,. >.~ SITUATION AS TO PAPER

Ex-Mayor Reiter, of Rochester, was
in the Herald office today and talked
about the high price of print paper.
He said he was up at the cities and.
was invited to see roll of print paper
made in Denmark, put on the press and
run. This roll was the first importa-
ton from Denmark. 1t bore all Dan
ish inscription Of placards. After the
paper had been rolling for some time
out dumped card. 1t bore the in
scription, "Made at International Falls,
Minnesota. for export" We . wonder
what the Dane importer paid for it if
he could pay the freight to the sea-
board, there across the sea, paste it all
over with Danish labels, reship it, pay
a tariff tax to get it to this country, pay
the freight to point within $50 miles
of where it was made and sell it in
competition with paper made at Inter
national Falls for home consumption.

New way TO Keep the
Family in Perfect Health

During last fall and winter the dis
covery was made that the most sue
cessful treatment in many instances
was to take a steaming hot cupful OF
Bulgarian Blood Tea with the juice
of half a lemon. The entire system
responds to the increased blood cir
culation. Fatal poisons are eliminat-
ed from the bowels and the kidneys
are flushed Of all impurities. Bulga-
rian Blood Tea relieves and corrects
constipation, indigestion, sour, gassy
stomach, kidney and liver ailments.
The Flame of Life is Rekindled.
The Vital Spark is strengthened and
:. the Blood becomes Strong and Pure.
It is also we'll to remember that

THE MENACE OF TYPHUs

Typhus Is here. Not, OF course,
for the first time. Frequently hith-
erto there have been sporadic cases
of the diesase among immigrants at
New York and elsewhere. These
caused no panic and no excitement,
and there was no reason why they
should. The sanitary authorities
were quite able to take care of them
and to prevent the fever from gain
ing any foothold on these shores.
The present case IL different. 1t
comes not sporadically but as the
advance agent of a threatened in
vasion on the most formidable scale
in the history of the world. En-
demic for years in portions of Russia
under the monstrous incompetence
of Soveitism it has developed into an
epidemic so vast and so destructive
as to be indescribable save in words
that SAVIOR exaggeration. The vic
tins are numbered by millions, and
we hear of huge stacks of dead piled
up like cordwood, awaiting burial or
more likely, burning by the simple
expedient of piling petrol-sprinkled
fuel upon and about them and APP
plying the torch. From Russia the
ulStdS0 mas duVduC6u lulO TOldHu,
where there were nearly 100000
cases last year and will probably be
more this year. Like a tidal wave
it is sweeping steadily westward,
toward Germany and France. AL
ready it has invaded Holland, and its
appearance In other countries of
weseern Europe is daily expected
with fear and trembling. Never be-
fore in history was such an epidemic
of 1t known, and never before was
it so virulent.
That is what last weeks case in
New York meant. 1t was fore
runner of the epidemic. That does
not mean, OF course, that the cpl
demic is bound to reach our shores.
But any. confident conviction that it
will not, can be justified in no other
way than through the utmost vigil
ance discretion, and energy on the
part of both the local and general
health authorities. We have spok-
-en of the urgent need of prompt and
resolute action against the peril of
Ibubonic or other plague. Typhus
is in some respects an even more
dangerous disease, and certainly
calls for comparably effective ac-
ton. 1t is not a cause for panic,
nor even for fright; but for expedi-
tious and vigorous work to combat
the thing at every port which it may
enter. Remember the flu, and
how possibility of its spread was at
first secuted by our health authori-
ties.

RETURNED FROM THE EAST

MISS Myrtle Hoth returned the
fore part of the week from a trip to
the east. She went to Chicago ten
days ago to assist in the buying of
ladies' ready-to-wear for the Acker-
man store. From there a number
of statesmen from all over the coun-
try went to Cleveland, Ohio, to at
tend short course in craftsmanship
The entire party went from there to
Niagara Falls for a few days outing.
Miss Roth was we'll pleased with her
trip and states that the Alderman
Company will have on display the
finest line of ladies ready-to-wear this
fall that has ever been shown. Miss
Roth has been employed in the
store many years and at present has
charge of the ready-to-wear depart
ment, position she fills with much
credit.

GOING BACK TO CANADA

C. G. Nelson, who has been in
Canada with his two sons since early
last spring was in the city yesterday
and made this office a pleasant call,
telling us that he expected to go
back to Canada next Monday, but
would be back here early enough in
the fall to look after the crying Of
farm sales.
Mr.. Nelson said his two boys had
better than 500 ecres of small grain
this year, half of it in wheat and
the other half in oats and barley.
He says he is making a conservative
estimate when he states that wheat
will go 25 to 40 bushels per acre,
and oats rs. Practically all of his
farming is done by tractors. Mr..
Nelson is near Beyon, Alberta, Can
ada but the greater part of the Au-
dubor colonoy is near Standard.
He says his two sons will thresh
10000 bushels Of small grain.

BOSTON FINANCIER IN TROUBLE
offered so Percent on Investments
in Ninety Days.

Five million dollars was set as the
probable amount of the public e
money intrusted to Charles Ponzi OF
Boston and not returned by him be-
fore his get-rich-quick bubble was
burst last week. Edwin L. Pride
federal auditor, explained that his
preliminary report of liabilities ag-
gregating $7,000,0O0 was based on
the face value of the unredeemed
notes issued by Ponzi, which called
for SO percent profits in ninety days.
The actual money represented in
these liabilities, he said, would be
between $4,500,000 and s5,000,000.
What proportion of the debts of
the discredited financier are covered
by his available assets was still in
doubt State and federal officials
pursuing independent investigations,
said they were unable to say how
nearly correct Ponzi's statement
that he has 100000 in ready as
sets would prove to be.
Should he be able to produce such
a sum, the public loss would be rela-
lively small, but it was pointed out
that aside from such expenditures as
he may have made for personal pur-
poses, all inquiries to date have fail
ed to disclose any source of profits
to defray the SO percent bonuses
given early depositors. except the in
vestments of those who came after
them. .|lA.
Receivership proceedings which
will be brought, in court are expect
ed to result in a cor-ordination of
activities to run down Ponzi's as
sets. Through the receivers to be
appointed, officials said, an attempt
undoubtedly will be made to mar
shall these assets and to obtain for
the benefit of present creditors the
large profits received by those whose
notes matured before payments
ceased.
Ponzi, the financial wizard of yes
terday, and the ex-convict and dis
credited leader of a new finance to-
day, was in the East Cambridge Jail
a federal prisoner. The $85, 200
bail which he had expected to OBJ
tain was not forthcoming and he
was described as weary and hollowe'
eyed from sleepless hours of wor
ry in contrast with the jaunty fig
ure which crowds for days followed
admiringly through Boston streets
His office, into which a flood Of
money had poured for months in
amounts so great that it had to bt
taken out at times in bushel bas
kets, were deserted save for Miss
Lucy Neil, the 1S-year-old girl who
was his office manager. She said
she still held notes of Ponzi for $45C
long since due her, which she had
made no attempt to cash because o.
her faith in him.

RENDERING LIANT REOPENs
New Equipment Added TO Plant and
Operating Under State License

With a. capital investment OF
$1,000 Deremo and Ruhs are now OPP
Grating the rendering plant which
has just been remodeled. The
plant is located one mile east of the
city and has passed state inspection
which permits it to be operated un.
der a state license. The inspector
remarked after a thorough examina-
equipped plants in Iowa.
Just one year ago Messrs. Deremo
and Ruhs purchased the rendering
works of ]. H. Maharg. Since that
time the industry has made a steady
growth and under their management
they have cared for 400 horses, 500
cows, 900 hogs, SO calves 80 sheep
and 20 colts.
Their territory lays within a ff-
teen mile radius of Audubon. The
plant is what is called a two tank
plant, the largest tank will accom-
modate 10 horses at one time while
the smaller one will hold seven
head. A large we'll furnishes the
water while the waste water is
drained, not out onto the open
ground, but into a concrete septic
tank, built of three Compartments,
each being eight feet square. The
steam arising from the tanks is con-
densed through coils in cold water
and then delivered into the septic
tank, thus eliminating much Of the
offensive odor. What little smell
there is comes from the animals
themselves as they are brought in.
If the animals could be secured in
time, there would be no offensive
odor at all. However, very often
the animals are not found by the
farmer until they have lain in the
field several days.
A new state law forbids feeding
dead animals to live ones and also
provides that disposal must be made
within "a hours. If not turned ov-
er to a licensed rendering works, the
animals must be buried not less
than four feet under the surface of
the ground and covered with quick
lime or else burned, IL done in a
manner not offensive to anyone and
thoroughly done. The new law al
so makes one important change in
that it permits rendering works to
take over swine which have died of
cholera.
Mr.. Deremo says there is not so
much danger of spreading disease
that way as in burning. 1t is sell
dom that an animal can be burned
thoroughly so it is easy for crows or
dogs to spread the germs.
The truck bodies are lined with
tin and every day are scrubbed out
and thoroughly dishfected. The
plant is a great help to the commun-
ity, for 1t property takes care of
dead animals and is handled in a
manner that cannot be otherwise
than a benefit to the farmers OF the
eommunity
