the better fed and stronger ones.
I'm some parts of Iowa the live
stock is so badly diseased that the
nearest packers blacklisted the
counties. This means the market A
is restricted and compels them to
seek other markets. In fact the
hogs from the heavy dairy districts
are looked upon with suspicion by
the packers, and many refuse to
buy hogs which railroads through
these sections bring to market.
"Chickens having tuberculosis
show little white spots in the liver
and spleen, small nodules along the
intestines. They gradually lose

shows that the increase has beenit7
enormous since 1907. In fact
about twenty-five per cent of the
hogs Iowa sends to market, nine
per cent of the cattle she sends to
slaughter are affected, and her
chickens are even more heavily
diseased than the hogs and cattle.
In many of the counties it has
been found in eighty-fve per cent
of the flocks of chickens.
"This totals an enormous econ
omic loss to Iowa, but this is not |
all by any means. For through
the milk the disease is spread toll
mankind, hogs, chickens and cattle
and the milk from diseased COWS
takes an awful toll yearly from
among the children and sad to re-
late, the undernourished become

Dead chickens or any kind of dead
animals should never be fed to the
hogs.
zone Iowa farmer killed tu-
bercular cow which was unable to
get onto her feet and fed the car
cass to the hogs,-two hundred
and one shoats and forty-ive brood
sows. Four months later when
| the shoats were sent to market.
one hundred and forty-nine of
them were condemned for tuber-
culosis, and the sows tested later
on were nearly all diseased. A
fine lot of fifty-fve nice fat hogs
recently killed in Omaha were all
diseased. Investigation gave some
startling facts. On the place were
found an uncle, the chickens, the
cats, the dog, the COWS and the
other hogs all badly diseased.
"a few years ago the champion
fat steer at the international Stock
Show held in Chicago was con-
demned for tuberculosis. In the
face of all the judges one of these
steers passed before none wee
| able to tell that he had tubercu-
losis.
"It is impossible to tell except
by the tuberculin test whether an
animal has the disease or not.
Furthermore, about twenty
three per cent of the hogs and nine
per cent of the cattle Iowa sends
to Chicago for market are dis
eased.
Tuberculosis is unlike any
other disease affecting live stock
or mankind today. Most diseases
spread through the whole system
by means of the blood, the lynn
phatic glands being unable to
strain it out. tuberculosis is
caught by the lymph glands, where
it starts to breaking down the.
gland or if in an organ it breaks
down the organ. If there are not
too many germs at the start, the
disease may be. held in the one
gland. This explains why some
carcasses are passed for food in
the packing house. This broken
down mass is not absorbed and
Ecan not be passed from the body
but in time becomes sandy and
grits when cut with a knife. But
the point to be remembered is that
the causative germ is held in the
mass a prisoner for life. This is

LESS BEEF, MORE
VEAL EATEN NOW

Washington. March 23.-Ameri-
cans ate ten pounds less meat per
capita last year than during 1918.
but elsven pounds more than during
the first war year. according to fg-
ures made public to-day by the De-
partment OF Agriculture. The con-
sumption of meat and lard cambined
last year was 1913 pounds per capt.
ia.
Less meat was produced, less ex-
ported and less consumed in 1920
than in either of the two preceding
years, the announcement said. Beef
consumption has fallen from rs
pounds ten years ago to not quite
56h pounds per head of population
last year.
Veal was said to be gaining steadi-
ly in favor, calves marketed last year
were more than double that of six
years previous.

coQUETTE SET NEW FASHION
Favorite Of French Monarch Respon-
sible for Couture Which Be-
came a Universal Style

Styles have had queer origins. and
none more unique than the ~fontagne.
a style OF hair dressing popular in the
early part of the eighteenth century.
The dressing consisted largely of do
ing the hair high and binding 1t in
place with a jeweled fillet or ribbon.
At one time it was worn by everyi lady
in the court Of Louis XIV, and from
there 1t spread to all parts of the civ
ilized world where fashion reigned.
The manner of its origin is this:
The king went for a ride one morn
ing with Mile. de Fontagne, a lovely
girl with whom the king was madly
In love, and who was not cold to his
advancess In fact she shortly took
her place as his favorite. AS they
rode. her hair came tumbling down,
and there is eason to believe the lit
tie comedy that followed had been
staged In advance, even to the loosen
ing of the pins that allowed her
beautiful tresses to escape. At any
rate. the lady slipped from her horse,
and with a laugh lifted her skirts and
took off a jeweled garter which she
bound around her hastily replied
hair. The king was delighted with
the by-play, and upon arriving at the
palace announced the mode the most
becoming In the world. Within "a
hours every coquette and matron in
the court had adopted the fashion.

GRINDING DOWN

California fruit growers are ship
ping their products to the Atlantic
seaboard via the Panama Canal at a
considerable saving in freightcharges,
thus helping to reduce the ordinary
income of the railroads. The railroad
problem has become one of trans
portation costs. The roads are up
against the imponderable resistance
of the public against high charges,
and the inevitable result is a decline
in traffic. Shipments fall off and more
empty seats are found on the passen-
ger trains. Products which might be
hauled from a distance, thus provid-
ing tonnage for the railroads, are
found nearer the point of consump-
ton. Local industries strive to sup
ply the needs which more distant
points formerly furnished. In count
less ways the public strives to cut the
cost of transportation, and conse-
~quently reduces railroad revenues
