SEVERAL HORSES
IN COUNTY LOST
BY new DISEASE
Scattered Cases of Sleeping
Sickness Reported With >
High Mortality

An epidemic of sleeping sick
ness among horses is feared in the
county with several cases report
ed in several localities, resulting
in the loss of the afflicted animal
in many cases.
The disease has been prevalent
around Marshall and Ivanhoe and
is believed to be spreading to this
county from there. Cases have been
reported at Milroy, Lamberton,
Morgan and in the vicinity of Red
wood Falls.
If taken in time, veterinarians
say, the animal can be vaccinated
and often saved. However there
is a shortage of serum and the
state department does not recon-
mend vaccinating animals after
they have developed the disease
beyond a certain stage or horses
that are not affected as it gener-
ally does not spread in herd.
First symptoms of the disease
are that the horse becomes dopey
and seems to be in stupor. Then
as a paralysis comes over it, it
wobbles when it walks or reacts
in different manners, sometimes
walking in circles or backing up.
1t is a brain disease, developing a
high fever.
1t is spread by biting insects,
such as flies and mosquitoes and it
is believed that the disease will die
out with the first hard frost.
Two years ago the disease was
prevalent in California where vast
numbers of horses died and the
University of California brought a
specialist from Germany to study
the cases. He predicted that it
would spread to the middle west
in two years, prediction then
scoffed at which has proved true.

Vesta Council Holds
Election on Dances;
Vote is Tied 65-65

Vesta-A special election called
for an expression of public opin-
ion to guide the village council in
making a decision on the question
of Sunday night dances failed to
accomplish it's purpose Tuesday
when the vote was tied.
Sixty-five persons voted eyes
on the question "Shall the council
issue permits for Sunday night
dances ?" and 65 voted an equally
strong "no."
The council still must make the
decision.
The question arose when the
village was offered the required
fee of $500 for a permit for Sun
day dances for one year. The
vote was unofficial since the coun-
Gil is not privileged to delegate
the authority to the public but
was held purely as a test of pub
lie sentiment.

Donkey Baseball Odds Favor
Paxton But Redwood
Team Has Points
Spectators and Donkeys To
Enjoy Afternoon And
Players Hope To

With the odds favoring the Pax
ton farmers whose ability with
balky animals is based on exper-
ience, the donkey baseball game
which is expected to set a new
high in laugh markets will be held
Sunday at 2:30 p. m. at the fair
grounds here.
Redwood Falls business men
who will oppose the Paxton aggre-
(culture) )gation, are basing their
hopes for triumph on the belief
that living in the tractor age
leaves their opponents vulnerable
to attack. Besides this age has
given men of commerce a thor

stock and tricky creditors whose
ways are not quite unlike those of
the donkeys they viii get first

The game is all in fun with
some question as to who enjoys it
most the spectators or the dom
keys. The players according to
the reports aren't even in the run

We say this because, before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most
so-called pain" remedies were adj
vised against by physicians as being
bad for the stomach; or, often, for
the heart. And the discovery of
Bayer Aspirin largely changed
medical practice.
Countless thousands of people
who have taken Bayer Aspirin year

proved that the medical findings
about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer

self into the spotlight at just the
right angle. The right sort of an
investigation would prove without
the necessity of. a two-tOn printed
report, that nine-tenths of our fears
and disturbances about our future
are due to the above mentioned
bugs. We have so forgotten about
the big, broad landscape beyond
them, that we really need a sensa-

to our attention.
Come on now, tell the truth.
Wouldn't you get a big kick out
of headlines which announced that
public investigation No. 1S09421-A
had just unearthed the fact that
nine-tenths of the population were
not Red? Aw, g'wan, you fibber F!
You wouldn't even read the story!
And if we had big expose to
the effect that we are a healthy

I'd like to see truths like that
brought out at a fair ratiO-say one
such truth to every three half-truths
about Reds, frauds and graft.
The other day Uncle Sam paid
off over six hundred million bucks
worth of debts and not a radical
discussed the matter. They all
put cotton in their ears and went
on yelling about revolution.
BY the way, a swell inveStiga-
tiOn might be started to find out
why Reds wear cotton in their ears.
We already know it's not to clean
'em. Must be so they can't hear
what they are saying. Or do they
take it out when they talk to each
other?
OF course there are many minor
subjects which could be investi-
gated with a fair amount of profit
and excitement, such as why wom
en- wear straw hats in February
and felt ones in August. Why moth
ers-in-law come to visit and why
even LlOydS will not issue inSur-
ance against gossip. Also why a
hangover is no more of a warn
ing than is capital punishment, and
if mice could increase their pOpu-
larity by growing sQuirrel-like tails.
Hey, no, L guess you're going
crazy, too, by this time! And prob
ably the thought has occurred to
you as we'll as to me, that these
last are questions which not even a
woman club member could answer.
POllyanna was a popular figure
until somebody ruined the gals
reputation by calling her Il fake
But, believe me, what the coun-

n TEW HAMP the Gran
y ite state, claims primacy in
= many things. In 1776 its Co.
lonial assembly adopted the first
written constitution to be enjoyed
by any of the states. Two years
before this it was on New Hamp-
shire soil that the first armed blow
was struck at British domination,
when a band of patriots, led by
John Sullivan and John Langdon,
overpowered the small garrison at
Fort William and Mary, in Ports
mouth harbor, and took away the
stores of powder. These were hid
den beneath the pulpit in the old
meeting house at Durham and were
later taken to Bunker Hill, where
another New Hampshire patriot,
John Stark, used the ammunition
in the engagement which first
showed the quality of the New Eng
land rebels.
Apropos of Stark at Bunker Hill,
there is a story that two British Of
ficers were watching the debarka-
tion of their troops and were look
ing toward the crest of the hill
where the COlonists had gathered.
''Will they fight?" said one to the
other. And his companion, who had
served with Stark during the In
dian wars, replied, "If one John
Stark is there, they'll fight" The
annual celebration of Bunker Hill
day in Boston is in consequence
something of an irritation to the
New Hampshire mind. because it
recalls that New Hampshire fur
nished most of the men, and that
1t was the strategy of John Stark
of that state which gave the Colo
mails their success.
1t is somewhat surprising to note
that this same John Sullivan who
led the midnight marauders at Fort
William and Mary should have
proved so cautious member of
the Continental congress which for
mulated the Declaration of Independ-
ence. But when the die was cast,
none was more courageous than he,
and his march against the six na-
tions is celebrated, even to this

Had First Free Library

Among the other firstS, and one
which gives New Hampshire much
satisfaction, is the fact that at Pc
terboro was established the first
free public library supported wholly
by public taxation. This library is
now housed in a handsome build
ing, the gift of a successful son of
the town; and in many another
community may be seen similar
proofs of affection for the old state
and the home town.
For two centuries New Hamp-
shire was nursery of seamen, and
from Colonial times its seabOard
resOunded to the stroke Of the calk,
ers mallet. From Portsmouth set
forth the expedition to LOuisburg
with New Hampshire men carried
in New Hampshire bottoms, and it
was at Portsmouth. too, that John
Paul Jones fitted out the Ranger
and sailed with her, flying the Stars
and Stripes to which the first of
fetal salute was paid by foreign
nation.
The navy yard at Portsmouth
dates back to the Revolutionary pc
riod. The house in which John
Paul Jones lived while superintend-
ing the building of his Ranger is
still standing and is the home Of
the Portsmouth Historical society.
Another of the handsome old prop
critics of those days, the Moffatt-
Ladd house, is now the home of
the Colonial Danes, who, upon Oc-
caSion. renew the traditions of the
house for gracious hospitality.
During the days Of wooden ships.
while we were dependent for our de-
