SPOTTED FEVER TICK
BITES WORRY JORDAN

Jordan, June 21-An unusual
amount of spotted fever cases have
resulted in Garfield county this year
from tick bites. At least four cases
have been reported in the county up
to the present time, as follows: John
r. Haislett of the Edwards country;
Benjamin Cook of the Smoky Butte
community; Thomas Walker of the
Anad neighborhood, and o. S. Osmund
son of the Butte Creek territory, the
first mentioned dying as a result last
Sunday
1t seems that there are at least
three different kinds of ticks here this
year, the sage brush tick, the old wood
tick and spotted tick, and they are
found in all kinds of places. 1t is be-
lieved that one of the latter two or
both cause spotted fever and it has
become necessary for persons work
ing on ranches or in fields to be very
careful. At this season of the year the
bites are said to result more seriously
| than at other times.

WHY DAIRYINC PAYS

Every man who is trying to get
anywhere wants to have something
to say about the conditions under
which he works. He wants to be able
to use his brains and his energy to
change those conditions to his own
advantage.
Did you ever stop to think that the
grain farmer has little or nothing to
say about the conditions OF farming
which surround his?
From the wet, cold ground in the
spring to the drouth and neat OF sum-
mer, the hail, the hot winds, the bugs
and the frost, he is at the mercy OF
the seasons, the prey of the elements,
the victim of chance.
Sometimes he wins. More often he
loses. But never is in control of the
conditions which surround him and
his business. Success with him is a
gamble and we have been finding out
of late years that the gamblers
chance is a small one.
The dairy farmer, however, as he
gets his farm onto dairy basis, lifts
his business out of the realm of
chance. He gradually comes to have
the power to control, at least some

MUST 'FRIsK' SELVES
FOR WooDTIcks

Woodticks are more plentiful this
year than they have been for some
time past because of the wet wealth
er Several cases of spotted fever
have alrbady been reported from
parts in eastern Montana, many of
which have proven very serious. One
death has thus far been reported
from this section of the state.
The first case Of spotted fever was
that of George Gwinne of Pineview
in Yellowstone county reported sew
eral weeks ago. Two cases of this
disease are at present being treated
in Rosebud county and 1t is thought
that both victims will recover.
"Ticks are more dangerous from
now until July. They travel in the
woods and live on the blood Of warm
blooded animals and it follows that
anyone is liable to their attacks.
The best way to handle the spotted
fever proposition according to the
best health authorities is by preven-
tion, and the only way to insure one
self against being infected is by exa-
mination every two hours to see that
no tick has fastened itself 10 the per-
son.
Ticks take about three hours to
work in under Tue skin, ard this reg
ular examination will prevent them
from doing so. If one Is attached to
the body, kerosene or gasoline will
cause him to come out on his own
accord
Spotted fever shows up about five
DAYS after the bite of the insect. and
very high percentage of afflicted
persons die. Only about three per-
cent of the ticks are germ carriers,
but there is no means of telling by
observation which are the affected
ones.
Because of the fatility of spotted
fever a greater number of persons
have been to local physicians to have
wood ticks removed this year when
these were found upon their bodies
after an outing in the hills.

HASTE AND DORMAN
WERE HERE SATURDAY

r. A. Haste, secretary of the Mon.
tana Nonpartisan League, and d. G.
Dorman, manager of the National
League organization were visitors in
Circle last Saturday.
Owing to some misunderstanding
they had been billed to appear here
on Friday evening and consequently
there was only small number of cit
liens out to hear what they had to
say while here on Saturday.
Mr.. Haste, however, gave a little
talk on the State Tax Association,
giving history of its origin, plans
and purpose, and his talk was very
much enjoyed by those present.
Mr. Dorman outlined plans for the
organization of a greater league, and
in his talk stated that there were
those that thought the league was
dead, merely because not much activ-
ity had taken place of late, but they
had another guess coming and that
the next few months would find the
league very much alive, and active.
The condition of things which made
it necessary for people to organize
themselves into a league, in order to
try and better themselves, have not
been remedied yet, and stated that the
only hope was by getting organized
and keep the good work going.
The gentlemen were on a. tour
which will take them into evkry
county in the state, where they will
endeavor get organization work un-
der way, with the hope that before
fall the league will really be bal
ance Of power" in Montana Politics. q

INJURED IN AUTO ACCIDENT

Emil Olson and brother Christ of
the Riverside community met with a
rather serious auto accident about
ten days ago, in which both OF the
gentlemen had rather close call.
They had butchered steer and
were delivering some of the beef to
neighbors. When going down coulee
they hit rough piece of road, break
ing their front spring on the Ford.
This caused the tenders to catch In
the front wheel and before the car
could be stopped they had tipped COM
pletely over. In the mix-up Emil Olson
was injured about the head receiving
several ugly gashes, and taken to
Richey for treatment. His brother
Christ was also bruised up some.
Taking all into consideration the
gentlemen consider themselves
mighty lucky to get out of 1t as they
did.

A. C. L. Train Wreck
Forty Persons Hurt IN Derail.
ment Of Train 90

Jesip, Ca, Dec. 20.-Forty per-
sons were Injured, none seriously,
when seven Pullman cars of pas
senger train No. 83, .southbound, on
the Atlantic Coast Line railroad,
turned over between Allenhurst
and Mcintosh about 10 O'Clock. to-
night.
DR.. Branch of Luzowici. who was
the first to respond to the call for
physicians, found that there is only
one person in the group OF injured
who will have to go to hospital.
He said that she was from New
York state, accompanied by her
husband and nephew, en- route to
Florida. He did not take her
name. He said that he rendered
only first aid to the injured.
This woman and all Of the other
passengers on the Pullman were
brought here, only the rear portion
of the train being derailed. The in
blred were then taken to Jackson
Vile, Fla, where the passengers
viii receive further medical atten-
ton.
.None of the wounds are seri-
Gus, said DR.. Branch. They are
decorations and bruises. The
Pullmans were turned over on
their sides and men. women and
children were thrown on to a tang
led mass inside the cars. That
there were no limbs broken seems
almost miraculous"
Traffic will be tied up for some
time on the Savannah division OF
the Atlantic Coast Line. The cause
of the wreck has not been determ-
iRed.
