Few Contagious Diseases
During November

According to the report Just re-
turned by Dr.. V. P. Genge of st.
Johnsbury, district health officer
contagious diseases in northeast
ern Vermont during the month of
November were almost a negligi-
Bile quantity. There was no cpl
demic of any kind and individual
cases reported were of a mild ma
ture and were taken care of in
time to prevent spreading.
st. Johnsbury and Concord each
had one casa of infantile paralysis.
Single cases of scarlet fever were
reported from Barton, Danville
and Lyndon. Derby had one case
of diphtheria. Danville reported
one case of measles and Barnet
had a case of the German variety.
This exceptional showing is due
TO a number of causes, but in
lot of instances an ounce of pre-
vention has been worth a pound of
cure, and proper precaution has
prevented making this list longer.

HadSell Assists in
Urging a Project
Brings Influence to Bear i'm Many
Quarters and Has Obtained
Encouraging Results.

As IA result of the meeting held in
.lratoga a couple of weeks ago to dis
cuss the proposed reclamation project
in this valley, which was attended by
Hon. f. A. Hadseal, County Attorney
McMicken, Andy Nelson and others
from Rawlins, a number of encOurag-
ing letters and kilograms have been
received, indicating that the proposed
reclamation plan is being given atten-
ton in many quarters, and that many
influential men from various parts of
the state viii cooperate with us in the
effort to initiate this project.
At the recent meeting Nh HadseIi-
who is always a consistent booster for
the Platte valley, as well as for his
county and state in general, offered to
assist in any possible way, and he was
delegated to bring the matter to the at
tention of various men whom it was
surmised could be of great assistance
in obtaining for the proposals the seri-
GUS consideration of the reclamation
department. That Mr. Hadsell did not
waste time in getting results is indicat-
ed by a sheaf of letters and kilograms
received by Fred IL. Healey. being

New Drilling Rig
Near Completion
Replacing Structure Destroyed by Fire
Last Week-Drilling Will BE Re
sumed Within a Short time.

Almost before the debris had cooled
at the scene of the fire which last
Wednesday night destroyed the South
west Petroleum C%0mpany's drilling rig
in the Saratoga field, trucks We're ar
irving loaded with materials for the
construction of another standard rig,
and this structure will be completed
during the present week If the weather
holds good.
Manager Oberlee is very anxious to
get the structure far enough along to
allow his men to begin their efforts to
regain the tools and cable which were
lost in the wei at the time of the fire.
and has stated that as soon as the new
rig was completed to the point where
it would hold Il cable he would begin
OF the Fishing" job. With no high
winds or intensely cold weather, but
another day or two will be required to
complete the body of the structure.
The drill lies at n depth of 230O feet,
and a great length Of steel cable Is
piled in upon it. Inasmuch as the
cable would likely not coil itself com
pactly in n 10-inch hole, no great diff
ficnlty is anticipated in recovering the
tools.

GOVERNOR CAREY BELIEVES
FARMERS SHOULD ORGANIZE

Governor Carey, on being asked re-

said:
while there have been some reports
that the Agricultural Conference did
not accomplish anything, / know that
such reports are untrue and emanate
from those who had a lot of radical
ideas that the conference refused TO
adopt. Briefly. the conference accom-
.plished "A number of things, most en-
portant in my mind being that it
brought to the attention of
and the country the serious condition
that the agricultural industry is facing.

Associations.

'tlr farmers who were organized in CO
