Rockwell Kent Plans to Live

NEW YORK, April 30.-Rockwell
Kent, artist, author and explorer, left
today on a trip that will take him to
Greenland, where he intends to live in
a shack at Umanak and hunt for the
lost settlements of the Norsemen.
He said he wanted to get away from
telephones and automobiles. He doesn't
worry about railroads, because his at
torney is now handling such matters
for him. For instance, the case OF the
Delaware & Hudson.
The D. g. H. suspended service be-
tween Ausable Forks, N. Y, where he
has his home, and PlattSburg, % miles
away. Mr. Kent appealed to the Inter-
state Commerce Commission and service
was ordered restored.
But now, he thinks, the case will be
reopened because the road Is taking the
names Of passengers.
at think they intend to reopen the
case and are taking the names with
some intention of using them as EVIL
dence," he said before his departure.
IF they don't use them, we shall sub
poena them because the list contains
some very distinguished names, indeed.
ITO my knowledge Al Capone, Peggy
joyce. Mahatma Gandhi and Bernard
Shaw all travelled on the road in one day.
A very happy party they were, too. On
another occasion the conductor took the
names of Leon Trotsky Aimee Semple
Mcpherson. Garibaldi, Lydia P1nkham,
Senator Heflin and Roman Pollard.
ut would be intolerable to deprive
these eminent persons OF railroad trans
mort. and might precipitate an ugly in
ternational situation into the bargain.

COMMUNISTS ESCAPE
FROM CHINESE TRAP.
By the Associated Press.

EANKOW. China, April s0-Na-

night said government troops Oppos-
Ing Communists in the vicinity Of Tang
yang, $50 miles northwest Of Hankow,
failed to follow up their advantage in
surrounding 800 Reds last week, with
the result that the latter succeeded in
withdrawing toward Kingmen.
At Kingmen, however, the military
said, government forces again engaged
the Reds, but killed only score Of
them. Nationalist forces originally sur
rounded the Reds with the avowed pur-
pose of annihilating them. The local
military denied reports Of the annihi-
lation of 1900 RedSt at Siangyang, so
miles north of Kingmen, and disclaimed
knowledge of alleged wholesale decapi-
tations in that vicinity or elsewhere.

1881 Highway Fund
Allotment Is Made
Stearns County Given $3O942 For
State Aid, $4,000 for County
Aid Routes

Stearns county was granted $50,
942 from the one-mill state aid
fund, for use on it's state aid roads
and $3.50 from. the counties one
third of the gas tax, for use on
county aid roads, at a meeting of
board last week. Total allotments
of state aid were $1,9133, 300, while
the total gas tax fund was estimat-
ed $3,200,000. The allotment board
consists of State Auditor Stafford
King, State Treasurer julius A.
Schmahl, and G. M. Babcock, COM
missioner of highways.
Allotments from the state aid
funds are based largely upon the
assessed valuation in each county,
but subject to the one per cent
minimum and three per cent maxi
mum fixed by law. Special allot-
ments, however, are made in a few
cases, to take care of unusual
needs. These are made only pom re-
quest, in the form of a resolution
by the county board. The allotment
board considered reqests for spe-
cial allotments totaling $241 400, of
which $74,693 were granted.
Allotment of the gas tax or coun-
ty aid fund is based upon traffic
needs, road milage and area of the
countries, subject to a minimum of
"a per cent and a maximum of 8
per cent fixed by law. Special al
lotments may also be made from
this fund, upon request of the
county board. Requests for special
allotments from this fund totalled
$325D82, of which $134,390 were
granted. In case of both the state
aid and gas tax fund the board
was unable to grant all the special
without unduly depelleting
the regular allotments. Regular al
lotments from the state aid fund
totaled $1,s3s, 307 and from the gas
tax fund $3,065,610.
The sums allotted from the gas
tax fund are paid to the counties
in two installments, one half in
August and one half in February.
This money is expended by the
county boards, in cooperation with
the town boards, and the work is
not subject to state supervision.
The money allotted from the state
aid fund is also expended by the
county boards, the money being
paid to the counties from time to
time as work is completed and APP
proved by the State Highway de-
partment.

Doctors Endorse New
Attack on tuberculosis
Urge Discovery of Infection In
Childhood before Disease

st. Paul April 6-The tuberculo-
sis that strikes down the twenty
year old, had its beginning, in
most cases, in an Unexpected ex-
posture to the disease when the
twenty year old was an apparent
ly youngster.
The problem Of tuberculosis con-
troll as the modern doctor sees it,
therefore, is chiefly the problem of
preventing those first exposures,
or Of discovering them before they
have been allowed to continue over
long periods and develop any SER
ious disease processes on the
child's body.

Highway Bond Issue Will
Be Put to Work AT Once
Bids Asked for on One Paving and
Five Grading Jobs-More to
Be Annouced Soon

The first of series of ettings of
trunk highway construction Jobs,
made possible by the recently bond
bill, will be held May 5, it was an
nounced today by Commissioner C..
M. Babcock. While the announce
ment calls for bids on only one 18
mile paving project and five grad
ing jobs, totaling A miles, Mr..
Babcock stated that bids on several
additional paving jobs will be OPEN
ed May 10, and that grading and
bridge work will be advertised
from time to time during the sum-
mer.
The May letting, with contracts
previously awarded, will bring the
years program to 1853 miles of paw
ing and Ala miles of grading.
About 70 more miles of paving and
$50 miles of grading are on the
tentative program for future let
tings, so that the years work will
aggregate 440 miles of paving and
IT'S miles of grading. Mr.. Babcock
states that with the bond issue he
hopes to get most of the urgent
grading done in 1881 and 1892, so
that. from and after 1888 large
paving program can be carried on
with current income. +
The paving job to be let May 5
is on T. H. No. GA, from Moorhead
to a point near GAINESVILLE. This
route is link in the heavily travel
ed U. s. No. los, which is already
paved from the Wisconsin line to
Alexandria It is expected that the
stretch from GAINESVILLE to Fergus
Falls will be paved in 1882.

In the absence of any specific
preventive Of tuberculosis such as
toxin anti-toxin for diphtheria"
says this bulletin, young children
must be protected from associa-
ton with grown ups who are suf-
fering from tuberculosis. The fact
that there are many persons with
open tuberculosis going about I'M
discovered and unchecked makes
it absolutely necessary that every
child, healthy or unhealthy, be
tested by the tuberculin skin test,
and If necessary x-rayed. The skin
test detects the presence of any in
his body long before there is any
other sign whatsoever of tuber-
culous disease. If this test pro-
duces a little red spot, that is,
positive reaction, then the child's
family circle and his friends can
be investigated to see who it is who
is causing the infection.
eff such a child is protected
early from any further doses of the
disease germ and his general
health is well guarded, the chances
are that another one of those pitt
full twenty year old break downs
from tuberculosis will have been
avoided"
If the procedure thus outlined
were faithfully and universally
carried out, it would be as effec-
tive as a specific immunizing
agent, in the opinion Of these doc
tors, for stamping out the scourge
tuberculosis.
This is the goal toward which all
medical and public health authori-
ties are looking" says the bulletin.
cit is not an impractical or impos-
sible goal, but it depends for it's ac-
complishment on intelligent under
standing of the disease on the part
of everybody.
The annual education in tuber-
cuIosis campaigns of the Mime
sofa Public Health Association are
having the enthusiastic support
and cooperation of the Minnesota
doctors as powerful factor in the
great campaign to control tuber-
culOSiS.

Buy Only Seed That Has Complete

Buying seed without full informa-

the Minnesota Pure Seed Law, is
inviting oneself to be cheated, says

testing laboratory maintained at
University Farm by the State De-
partment of Agriculture. What fire.
quently by test the laboratory
made recently of some red clover
seed sold to farmers cooperative
elevator company.
The information given on the
label was as follows: purity 98.5 per
cent; termination, "a per cent;
Montana grown, 1880. No other
data required by the Minnesota law
was given. The analysis showed:
purity 1872 per cent; total weed
seed, 2.3 per cent; other crop seeds.
10 per cent. These other crop seeds
included 6.2 per cent of sweet
clover, 1.3 alsyke, 0.4 alfalfa, the
rest being wheat, timothy and
white clover. All together there
were II kinds of weed seeds, in
GLIDING 2 quack and 2 buckhorn
seeds, per pound of clover.
This seed was sold for 25 cents a
pound. In every 100 pounds there
were So pounds of sweet clover
seed worth about cents pound,
Or SIS cents. At rs cents a pound, this
sweet clover would bring $1.55 or a
profit of 81, this way of selling
sweet clover, Mr.. Bull says. He
points out that the Minnesota seed
law was enacted to put stop to
this very practice, but the only way
farmers can be sure of getting the
benefit of it is to buy seed only
under labels that give all the in
formation required by the law.

Menace to Growing Child
Nationwide Educational Campaign
Will Be Launched This Week
For Protection

Opening this week throughout
Minnesota, an educational cam
paign will be launched to center
public attention on the protection
of youth from tuberculosis. This
effort forms a part of a co-ordinat-
ed countrywide campaign being
conducted by the Christmas Seal
organizations of the country under
the direction of the National Tub
erculosis Association. In this State
the Minnesota Public Health AS
ISOLATION is in charge.
With the slogan Tuberculosis,
the foe of youth, special effort it
to be made to interest parents,
teachers, and boys and girls of
high school age. A booklet 'Tuber-
culosis and the Teen Age" is to be
given wide circulation among the
physical training. educators, par
ent-teacher groups, teachers and
others who have boys and girls in
charge.
The symbol of the campaign
which appears on posters and other
campaign material, contains the
figures of David and Goliath. "This
familiar. Bible story was selected
as the theme" says bulletin from
the Minnesota Public Health As
ISOLATION, because it is during
youth, when danger is often treat
ed with scorn that the arch foe,
tuberculosis is most likely to strike
And today, as of old, the place for
DAVID to strike Goliath is at the
point of intelligence. The best wea-
pom is the stone of knowledge.
tuberculosis, although dropped
fifth place among all ages as a
cause of death, still kills more
people from Is to Is than any other
disease. It will cease to be the foe of
youth when everyone knows that
young people may have incipient
tuberculosis, yet no outward signs
whatever, but that the tuberculin
tests and the x-ray betray the con-
dition, and warn us that the strain
and stress of active scholastic and
athletic effort must be replaced by
rest, nourishing food, and careful
regulation of all activities"
