months travel and research in Chile,
Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador, Professor
f. w. ID. Holway of the University
of Minnesota botanical department,
has returned to Minneapolis to re-
sumo duties. Among his experiences,
Prof. Holway tells of the escape
from violence of himself and wife
and small party of Americans at
the hands of lawless Bolivians who
blamed the foreigners for an eclipse
of the moon and the election of a
liberal perfect. During his trip, Prof.
Holway collected many specimens of
parasitic fungi and Towering plants
which he will spend several months
in classifying and studying.

Winneshiek Needs Huskers.

The state of Iowa is short on corn
huskers according to State Labor
Commissioner A. L. Urick. We need
5000 men to husk corn standing in
the fields if the crop is to be gotten
out without any danger. A list of
help wanted throughout the various
counties lists Winneshiek as wanting
10 huskers, and the wages paid is
6 and 7 cents a bushel. In a very
few counties they pay as high as 10
cents. -.

HEALTH DOCTOR HERE.
State Epidemiologist Visited De-
corah Monday.


DR.. Don NJ. Griswold, Epidemiol-
ogist for the State Board of Health,
arrived in DEBORAH on Monday and
will spend several days here. This
visit. is the result. of an invitation
Iof Mayor Bucknell and Health Of
ficer ]. D. Hexom. The object of the
visit is to go over any contagious
disease situation by state official
of wide experience. y,s-s~ ""l
1t is one of DR.. sGriswold's official
acts to go about the state and give
his expert advice and he came here
from Dubuque, where he was on a
similar mission, and has number of
other places to visit as soon as he
can get around to them. ~'E'
1t is hoped that after a careful
study the state epidemiologist will
make recommendation to the board
of health and also the citizens which
when carried out will reduce con-
tdSlOuS ulSedSeS.
While sufficient time has not
elapsed for a carefully detailed study
of the local situation several points
of Importance were noted by DR..
Griswold early in his visits, regard
ing smallpox cases. ..
Smallpox is absolutely unneces-
sary" said DR.. Griswold at a meet
ing of the physicians and the board
of health on Monday evening. The
prevention of smallpox is entirely a
personal matter, and anyone can
have it, or not, just as they choose,
he said.
The publication of public water
supply is a municipal matter and
should be paid for entirely by the
taxpayers of the city the same as
any other city improvement. This
has been done in many cities to pre-
vent the occurrence of cases of typ
hold fever. " {,
But with smallpox the situation is
entirely different said the doctor. All
that the city can do by quarantining
placarding and fumigating will not
prevent more than five per cent Of
the cases.
There is one measure, and lone
measure only, that will stamp small
poX out of DEBORAH or any other
city, and that measure is vaccination.
81 have never seen a person who
contracted smallpox within five
years after successful vaccination"
said DIR. Griswold.
This alone should point the way
out for any good citizen. 1t is the
duty of every good citizen to pro-
tect the health of himself and his
family. And anyone who does not
take advantage of the protection
against a filthy, loathsome disease
is simply to blame and must suffer
for his own folly.
DR.. Griswold said the placarding,
quarantine and disinfection done by
boards of health is accomplishing
all that such measures ever accom-
plish, which is a reduction of about
5 per cent of the cases. The proven
ton of the other 95 per cent does
not rest in the powers of the board
of health, but is a personal matter
and every citizen must take the
matter Of protection into their own
hands and be vaccinated. There will
be smalljox just as long as there
are unvaccinated people: 1t can only
and will only be stamped out by vac.
cination said DR.. Griswold. ..t

Gave Talk Before Commercial Club.

Gave Talk Before Commercial Club.
A representative of the American
City Bureau of Chicago appeared be-
fore the,gCoinmercial Club Wednes-
day evening and outlined plan of
organization and perfecting CONNER
cial clubs. The idea is to make a
larger and more useful club, but it
seems that the idea appeals more to
a city of $4,000 or 10000 people.
The fees charged by the Bureau for
their organization work is consider
able. A charge of $500 is made,
and in event the proceeds amount to
$4,000, then 10 per cent for every
thing above that. On the second year
they get 10 per cent on what is COL
lected ON dues above $500. The
Bureau puts in about nine weeks
work sending men out to cities In
organization work, etc. Their Office
help and other expenses to be paid
by the local club. After due con-
sideration of the proposition the De-
corah Commercial Club turned the
proposition down and decided to go
Gong in their own way, and work up
more interest by securing larger
membership by getting practically
everybody in the community inter-
ested in the club.
