BY PAUL DE KRUIF Written for NEA Service

written TOT NEA SerVlce
 It was one of the most hope arousing events ill microbe- hunting history-the discovery, late in 1886, that monkeys can be solidly pro- tected against attack by infantile paralysis virus.
 Now the men against the nlaiming death' in their labora- tories, and our public healthmen were faced with key question: Are these means of monkey pro- lection safe enough and simple enough to test in the field, against infantile paralysis threats to Amer ica's children?
 Right now the answer is yes and no. Zinc sulphate is safe enough, but you cannot hope to guard a human being from the attack of infantie paralysis, un- less the zinc sulphate nose spray or nose wash thoroughly covers the endings of the nerves of smell. Then there is complete loss of the sense of smell, which in chil- dren persists from one to two weeks, and in grownups for a month, and longer.
 Dr. R. Sterling Pentecost of To- ronto has proved that when you run the zinc sulphate solution in with a rubber catheter, immedi- ate loss of smell occurs in all the children and this means that endings of the nerves of smell have been completely covered.
 Now that sure ways of cover ing the nerves of smell with zinc sulphate will be at the disposal of our physicians in the summer of 1888, when the next epidemic threatens, this question awaits it's portentous answer: Will this truth that guards the lives of monkeys guard the lives of mankind?
 MUST MOBILIZE
 FOR QUICK ACTION
 This hunt for truth is going to be a stern and difficult one and the co-working of all the people alone can make it possible. The physicians of the American Acad- emy of Otolaryngology - the cream of the nose and throat spe- cialists of America have volun- teered to take the lead in giant field trial of the zinc Sulphate preventive next summer. But the truth hunt cannot succeed unless the whole people get behind their front line fighters of this death.
 For nfantile paralysis epidem- ics expode with great rapidity This makes it necessary that our healthmen have the means, the organization, to throw open clin- ics for mass application of the zinc sulphate preventive instant ly there's evidence of an out break.
 MONEY REQUIRED
 FOR COMPENSATION
 To mobilize this army for the coming giant human experi- ment, there must be wherewithal. We need physicians to apply the zinc Sulphate, nurses to assist them in holding the youngsters and keeping records, and nose specialists to see to it that the preventive is surelly applied to block deaths gateway.
 But we cannot ask these sol- diers of health to serve, unless we pay them decent livings for so doing. They will have to take time off from their practices, and this endangers their livelihood. And money will have to be avail able, too, to pay the experts who will be needed to analyze the results of the giant human field test. The hoped-for preven-

HeIena's Kiwanians in cooper
alton with the Lewis and Clark
county agricultural extension serv-
ice have launched upon a broad
seed-testing program aimed to
find the cheapest and most effec-
tive method of reseedfng crop land,
now out of production, to crested
wheatgrass. An outdoor Iaborato-
ry' consisting of about 40 acres
of land, nine miles north Of Hell
ena has been secured through the
cooperation Of the Montana Power
Co., and Albert j. ROystOn, lessee.
On the land they are trying out the
different methods of seeding the new
ly developed range conserving vegeta-
ton.
Crested wheatgrass is adapted to a
wide range of soil types. 1t is being
produced on every type Of soil from
nearly pure sand to the stickiest gum
DO. 1t will produce well even in a
slightly alkah soil. It's ability to adapt
itself to low moisture and high tenn
perature conditions makes 1t an ideal
grass for the Montana rangelands 1t
is winter hardy and even during the
extreme drouth years it has not shown
any winter killing. 1t makes excellent
feed.
-Four methods Of planting the new
grass are being tried on the K1Wanis
plot. They are as follows:
l. Broadcasting on the sod with no
previous or subsequent cultivation.
2. Broadcasting seed after spring.

was about seven years old. He spent
most Of his life on Gallatin valley
farm but died on a Madison river
ranch west Of Bozeman.
Oliver Morgan was educated in Gal
latin county and registered at Mon

VACCINE FOUND

PRONOUNCED 100 TIMES MORE
POTENT THAN ONE FORMER
LY USED
Livestock Sanitary Board Officials
Say That If Animals Are Treated
With 1t in Spring, Losses win Be
SIinimized.

A vaccine 400 times more pO-
tent" than one formerly used has
taken the threat Of ravages from
sleeping sickness among Montana
horses in 1899.
state livestock sanitary board Off
Gals said the Chick vaccine-So named
because it is envolved through the use
Of an embryonic hens egg-would in
sure against any such epidemic similar
to that which swept the state last
summer.
In July August and September OF
this year it was officially estimated
5000 Montana horses had been de-
Stroyed by the disease at a cost Of
10000.
Officials explained the old vaccine
derived from use of brain tissue taken
from an animal which had died of
the diseaSe-not only lacked the strong
combatiVe powers of the Chick vaccine,
but was more costly.
The latter preventive is obtained by
an injection process into an embryonic
chicken egg which has been carefully
incubated for 10 days
They said the old vaccine cost from
IS to $40 to administer, while the
Chick process costs "as low as So"
IF horse owners will have their
horses vaccinated early in the spring"
one official said, "they will have moth
ing to fear, and this department urges
that such a procedure Is followed next
season"
1t was explained that rodent life
provides the reservoir for the germ
which Is later transmitted to animals
by mosquitoes and flies. Early vaccina-
ton would provide protection against
the usual attacks Of insect life, of
which many might be disease carriers.
Montana's past sleeping sickness
called ncephanlomyeliti
occasioned much scientific
investigation when a similar disease
attacked humans.
That a definite link between the
malady affecting animals and that
which attacked humans existed here
was doubted.
One authority said that although a
link had been established between the
two in the eastern section of the
country, the western attack was Of a
different type.

MONTANA CATTLE

ENTERING WINTER IN EXCEL
LENT SHAPE, SAYS DIR. w. J.
BUTLER, VETERINARIAN
Rain In Early Spring and Summer
Gave Grass Good Start and Re-
stored Ranges, Which Are Now IN
derstocked, Asserts Official

Montana's cattle are facing win
ter's onslaught In the ~best con-
dition they have been in for
1 years DR.. W. J. Butler, state vet
erinzrian, said.
He said one Of the rainiest springs
and early summers experienced here
In a decade was the primary cause Of
the excellent shape" Of Montana
livestock.
Coupled with this natural factor, I"
he said, is a steady trend in the live
stock industry toward a production Of
superior beef animals and to feeding
and care"
The state veterinarian said Mon
tana's range is, at present, under
stocked"
Blessing in Disguise
This Is really blessing in disguise, /"
he said. For a long time our ranges
have needed a rest; q chance to re-
cuperate from long, dry periods. That
IS being experienced now. Montana
range comes back quickly, and the
rains this year have been such that
our stockmen have nothing to worry
about as to feed"
He said disease among the states
livestock was at q minimum, making
an even brighter picture for the stock
grower"
During the past 10 years, Mon
tana's stock industry has been going
to school Growers are more than ever
before aware OF the value-both In
the present and the future-of growing
superior animals. There was q time
when the industry In general con-
tanned itself more to keeping disease
out Of herds and feeding, than with
breed development. Today our stock
growers are producing beef animals
from scientific and highly satisfac-
tory standpoint"
Warns Against Speculations
DR.. Butler warned stockmen to ''be-
ware Of outside spectators in the
industry"
at IS they" he said, who are TO
blame for bringing inferior animals
into the state. The industry must pro-
tect itself to insure against becoming
q dumping ground for inferior stock.
The majority Of the states live
stock Is above the average and sales
are becoming increasingly better. It
Is up to the stock industry to assure
q continuance Of this condition"
DR.. Butler, who attended q Billings
4-H stock show, said the animals were
indicative OF the high standard main
tanned in Montana"
