hoped. will make II possible for medi-
cal authorities not only TO prevent the

The subject has been under consid-

medical authorities. It became known.
as Q result of the investigation. that

Studies are being made by r. Adam
butcher and Stanley D. wilkins Of
the station, In cooperation with d. c.
Beaver and W. A. Billings Of the, vet
Urinary division Of the university. and
A. l.. Smith Of the poultry division
These experts were considerably en-
lightened as to the causes and method
of control of animal paralysis by GER
tain discoveries made in an attempt to
trace the causes Of limberneck in
poultry. In experiments cockerel
was fed on the larvae Of green bottle
flies. which had fed on the head Of a
hog which had died Of paralysis
The result was that limberneck i'm
mediately developed In the cockerel.
Next the process was reversed. Paral-
ysis Of the hind quarters was produced
In guinea pigs by feeding them larvae
which had fed on chicken which
showed limberneck symptoms.
The information gained from the
experiments have caused the univer-
sity officials to send out bulletins to
Minnesota farmers urging them to
protect their live stock and poultry,
and possibly human health, by burn
ing or burying deeply all carrion.
They cite this as an additional argu-
ment for farm and home sanitation.

dust and all we're glad they had some
thing to fight off the scurvy, for fresh
meat is good medicine for scurvy. It was
too late to cook it that night so they put
it in the grub box to save till next night
when all hands would lay to to carry
wood and make fire in an attempt to keep
the water boiling long enough to cook the
meat. When they returned to camp the
next evening malamute had got into the
tent, upset the grub box, carried off the
hunk of meat in triumph and was just
licking the bones on the tundra back Of
the tent when the miners arrived. The
things they said to their beloved malamute
(husky dog) would not do to print, but
after such experiences with meat markets
they appreciate the fine service at our
market and the fine equipment for cleo
trio cooking in the home. ou N
Our fine service and equipment are yours

will make use Of it as fearlessly as the

1t was near midnight on summers even
ing in latitude IS. Two men were gather
ing willows, one man was chopping them
up and feeding the fire while fourth
man was doing the cooking. The
butcher wagon, an old pack horse led by
a man wearing hip boots, came splatter-
ing up the bed of the river. An ancient
milk COW had been slaughtered at trad
ing post twelve miles down the stream
and this man hung several hunks of meat
on the pack saddle, each hunk looping
down over the horses side and "pro-
tected' by one layer of burlap cut from
sack and spread along the horses sides
between him and the meat. The burlap
had probably done service in hundred
warehouses and had been transferred to
many boats and pack horses after it
reached Alaska, SO it was necessarily as
clean as a napkin. The meat was offered
for sale in three pound hunks at 'steen
dollars hunk and was in much demand.
Every bunch of campers bought hunk
and parted with 'steen dollars in gold
