GEORGIA SHIPPED
1900 CARS MELONS
u. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRI-
CULTURE BULLETIN SHOWS
STATE AS LEADER.

MACON, Ga.-Although watermel-
ons are still beng shipped from vari-
Gus points in Georgia, and although
more than 500 carloads will be sent
out of the state in the next few days,
the final report on shipments has been
made by the local office of the United
States Department Of Agricultural
Economics.
On account of the unusually heavy
shipments the office was kept open
10 days longer than usual.
Shipments from south Georgia have
practically ceased, while other sections
of the state are gradually winding up
the seasons business. Georgia has
shipped $1,000 carloads, with approx
mately 500 more to be shipped, max
ing a grand total of 13,400 for this
season. The agricultural economies Of
fee here issued a statement Monday
to the effect that Georgia watermel-
ons have brought better prices than
those from most of the other melon
growing states in the south, this in
spite of the fact that prices have been
none too good this year.
Alabama, Georgia's biggest rival as
a melon-growing state, shipped but
1884 carloads
H. E. Rutland, who has been in
charge of the economics office here,
will leave in few days for Maine to
open an Office which will issue reports
on the shipments of potatoes.

DREAD DISTEMPER
GERM is ISOLATED
A MINNEAPOLIS BACTERIOL-
OGIST MAKES A WONDERFUL
DISCOVERY FOR DOGS.

| DR.. Robert G. Green, associate pro-
lessor of bacteriology at the Univer-
sity of Minnesota, won himself per-
manent place last week in the hearts
OF all dog lovers, many OF whom are
in Dawson and throughout this sec
ton, when he announced that he had
isolated the dread "distemper" germ,
found the disease to be a form OF ty-
phoid fever and prepared a vaccine
which would prevent it.
For years on end, the Fidos OF the
land have contracted a vicious type of
asthma or hay fever, sneezed and
groaned for a few days and popped
off, while small boys wept and dog
fanciers cursed. The mysterious all
ment, long thought to be comparable
to tuberculosis in man, was called dis
temper.
The percentage OF losses in valuable
dogs, particularly in collies and police
dogs from distemper, has been very
high. But now comes DR.. Green, after
a year or so over his test tubes and
microscopes, and announces that it
will be comparatively simple in the
future to vaccinate the lovable little
cuss and bring him to ripe old age
trucks and speeding flivvers willing.
"Distemper is primarily a CASTRO
intestinal disease, comparable to ty-
phoid fever in man." DR.. Green an
nounces, from the midst of his forest
of bottles and test tubes. THE bacil-

typhoid germ and, like typhoid is in

various forms, as typhoid is divided
into typhoid and para-typhoid Sc
runs for both are possible. Distemper
is accompanied by secondary Attic
ton of the respiratory organs"
DR.. Green's study OF distemper was
inaugurated primarily for the Arneri-
can National Fox Breeders Associa-
ton, which appealed to him to inves-
tigate the disease then threatening to
wipe out the important silver fox
growing industry. He hauled sick fox
es into his laboratory from all parts
OF the northwest and studied them.
When the germ was isolated he moe
ulated dogs and found that Fido soon
developed the familiar distemper
symptoms.
The discovery that distemper is
typhoid and can be prevented by vac
cination is a saving grace in the silver
fox industry" said William Ryder, ma
tional president OF the fox breeders
association. 1--WE lost millions last year

Hours and AZ Seconds.

An average speed of nearly six
tenths of mile minute was main
tanned by Atlanta homing pigeons in
100mile race, which is said by fan

AMERICAN COURTS IMPOSE
MANY QUEER PENALTIES

American courts impose many
queer penalties. The following six
cases illustrate the point;
A New York city minister ar
rested for speeding, was sentenced
to prepare a sermon on the subject
and deliver it in church.
A Pueblo, Colo, man, convicted
OF the same offense, was required
to write an article on THE Sin OF
Speeding"
In Miami, Fla, a motorist con
victed of reckless driving was or
dered to spend ten consecutive Sun
days in jail.
A Judge in Detroit Mich, sends
all convicted speeders to the hos
pitfalls and morgues to view Grip
pied children and the victims Of
automobiles.
In Chicago a man convicted Of
larceny was given a 30-day SEN
tence when he promised to enter
tain other prisoners by singing
songs about "home and mother"
A negro sentenced to life impris-
onment for murder, in Cincinnati,

iron ore producers who rely upon
the open market to sell their ores.
That it would bring eager COMPETE
ton from the sellers of foreign
ores seems more than probable. 1t
is asserted by one authority that
Chilean iron ore can be laid down
at Lake Erie docks, if the big ship
canal is built, at a dollar a ton un-
der existing prices for Lake Super
ior ores. 1t is conceivable that this
would not be bad news for the iron
and steel makers of the United
States who rely on Lake iron ores,
but would not interest the ore pro-
ducers here who expect tc sell
their product to somebody else.
The situation, no doubt, could be
regulated by tariff, but it would
take considerable nerve to ask for
tariff on iron ore in order that
the iron ore tax holdup may be
continued in Minnesota and possibly
elsewhere in the Lake Superior dis
trict. There is such a thing as
patriotism in industry and there
should be in politics.

If there is one thing of which Minnesota
can feel justly proud, it is the action of that
man Frank Kellogg, secretary of state in the
Coolidge cabinet. One Shapurji Saklatvala,
Communist member of the British Parliament,
came over to tell benighted heathens in
America how to run the government in the
best Ethiopian Communist style. He came
over to do that little favor for us but our man,
Kellogg, saw him first and Shapurji Saklat-
vala was denied admission. In consequence
we will be compelled to grope around in the
dark in this enlightened age until some other
foreign anarchist sneaks in and tells us all
about it. 1t is no wonder that he was allow
ed to leave England-or any other country
for that matter. The only wonder is howinell
he ever got into that country and Parliament
with a name like that Secretary Kellogg
has had experience, while practicing law in
this state with that class and also with some
sneezy names He knew what he was doing.
He figured you could get along with Tom, Bill,
Pete or Jack, but Shapurji was the limit with
out the added insult of coming here to pub
licly give voice to proposition to overthrow
the government Over in Russia, where
that kind of stuff had it's birth, the fellow
would not have been excluded, he would have
been shot. A firing squad would make a
beautiful reception committee and a sure cure
for the ailment with which the ilk suffers.
We recommend that the good ship, Buford, be
again commissioned for active duty and sew
eral loads of Shapurjis given a yard long
ticket to the country they came from with no

LAKE IRON ORE DEAD LINE.

are mines which cannot be operated

Were the tax burden reason

for the relief would have been in

taxes are 5000, 900 annually may be

nual tax of 100000 necessitates
the raising of so much money that

enough ore to at least meet this

manner, many tonnages are forced

operators who depend on sales
alone.
