their selection. Formal acceptances,
he said, will be turned over to ma
tional selective service headquarters.
Offcials at national headquarters
said no uniform plan for appoint
ment procedures had been worked
out. This will be left to the States.
Vacancies Anticipated.
National officials said vacancies
are expected TO accur in draft boards
throughout the country due to sick
ness, business difficulties and other
causes. These will be filled from
supplemental names submitted to
national headquarters.
1t was indicated, however. that ma
tional officials assumed that local
selective service Offices would find
out in advance whether a person
would be willing to serve and would
not submit names Of individuals who
had not been approached.
Gen. Cox said in every instance
he had been assured by individuals
and organizations making recon-
mendations for appointments that
those recommended were qualified
and willing to serve.
The board members will be called
to devote their entire time to the
conscription program for at least
three weeks beginning on registra-
ton day October 16.
Five members for each of the "a
draft boards here were appointed by
President Roosevelt late yesterday
following their nomination by the
District Commissioners.
With them will rest the decision,
locally speaking. as to who will be
drafted, who will be given deferred
status and who will be exempt, once
lots are drawn to tap the countrys
numbered registrants.
Appeals Board to Be Named.
Cases appealed from these local
boards will be handled by seven
man board of appeals, still TO be
named by the Commissioners and
appointed by the President. Per-
sonnel of this board probably will
be selected early next week, off,
Gals indicated.
The Commissioners also have yet
to name the physicians and Gov

will be assigned to each of the 46
registration centers in an advisory
capacity. and the Registrants Ad-
visory Board. which is to have a
representative at each center TO
inform registrants regarding their
civil rights and other matters in

were made from a list of approXi-

it is usually fatal.
100 Types Of Influenza.
These animals are difficult to
secure. There were approximately
100 healthy specimens in the labora
tory. 1t was feared the dog disease
would spread to them and their
loss would cause delay of months
in the influenza work.
Consequently the sick animals
were killed and a vaccine made
from their lung tissue. This affords
a practically complete protection
None of the healthy animals showed
any sign of distemper and their turn
soon came to be inoculated with
the flu virus. To the disgust of the
scientists at first they showed no
signs of sickness. 1t was thought
this might be because the ferretS
with distemper had previously been
inoculated with precisely the same
strain and had developed III their
blood antibodies which protected
their successors.
So another strain was used. Still
they remained as healthy as ever
Strain after strain failed to pro-
duce any effect and the labora tory
workers realized they may have been
the victims of one of the most
fortunate accidents in the history
of science.
During the last six years ap-
proximately 100 types of influenza
have been isolated from human
cases. The procedure is to take
nose and throat washings of hu-
man patient in the acute stage of
the disease. This is inserted with
a medicine dropper into the noses
of the ferrets and, if the virus
was present in sufficient concentra-
ton the animals soon will develop
the disease.
Various Strains Found.
During the next few days the
virus will concentrate in the lungs
of the animals. They are then
killed and their lung tissue ground
into fine particles. From this prep
aration the virus itself is extracted
by means of centrifuging. When
it is injected into another ferret
at this stage another case of flu
is developed and the strain con-
tinued in existence. If, however.
the disease organism is killed with
formalin-the customary procedure
in making vaccines-and then in
jected under the skin or into
muscle an immunity is set up.
Then an injection of live virus
will not cause inf1uenza-but 1t
must be the same strain of virus as
that which was used in producing
the vaccine. Against some other
strains there may be partial pro-
lection. Against the majority Of
strains there is no immunity.
A new type is one which is not
protected against by the vaccines of
all the previously known strains.
Different strains probably are re-
sponsible for the different mani
festations of flu in various outbreaks
Some are extremely mild and others
severe.
This is the stone wall against
which all efforts to make flu vac
cine in the past have broken. 1t
would be obviously impossible to
vaccinate 100 times, and it is likely
there are hundreds of flu types as
yet unisolated.
The combined flu-distemper vac
cine apparently protects ferrets
against all known types. 1t is pre-
sumption only that it will protect
against types as yet unknown.
Tested on Human Beings.
Apparently what bacteriologists call
synergistic action is set up. Dis

LAMB CROP
GAINS IN

The 1910 lamb crop in Mon
tana is estimated at DOC
head or At per cent larger than
that of 1889 and 10 per cent
larger than in 1888, but a. per
cent smaller than the 1929-193e
average, according to a report
released recently by the Agri-
cultural Marketing Service.
The increase compared with
the lamb crops of the preced-
ing two years comes about as
a result of increased numbers of
stock sheep, the report points
out. AS a percentage of January
l., eve numbers, the 1910 crop
was IS per cent of that base
compared with Sc per cent in
each OF the two preceding years.
appear to have been
making satisfactory gains to

tana and in scattered localities
east of the Divide, the general
range and pasture feed situa-
ton continues above average
for this season of the year.

Mortgage Terms
Beinq Extended

Rewriting approximately hall
| of the Land Bank Commissioner
loans outstanding in Big Horn
county has served to stabilize
farm mortgage indebtedness In
this county and has made 1t
easier for farmers to get out
of debt, M. B. Yates, secretary
treasurer of the Billings Nat
ional Farm Loan association OF
flee, said this week.
During the past several
months, MI. Yates said, APP
proXimately so per cent of the
Land Bank Commissioner loans
outstanding in the county have
been reamortized - that is,
have been rewritten for a long
er term of years. Most of these
loans were originally written for
a term of 10 years. They have
now been extended in many ca
ses to 20 years, thus reducing
annual payments on principal
and giving farmers a better OPP
p%ortunity to work out of debt.
At the beginning of the year
there were 80 Land Bank Com
missioner loans in Big Horn
county for a face amount of
$192,750. In addition, there was
o t t an ding approximately
S201 800. in Land Bank loans
Some of these loans also have
been reamortized, Mr.. Yates
said.
In most cases the Commits
sioner loans are second mort
gage loans. The Federal Lane
bank loans are all first mort
gage loans. "The reamortiza-
ton of the Commissioner loans
Mr.. Yates said. spreads out the
payments for the man with the
heaviest burden of debt. It has
put the annual payments or
these mortgages more in line
with the earning capacity o.
the farm and it has brought re.
newed confidence to many fam
lilies"

COWBOY FINDS RELIEF
FROM

For quite a few years I have
suffered with rheumatism. 1t
bothered me in my knees and
all over my body. Knifelike
pains would shoot up through
my hips, my back and my
shoulders. Some told me I had
arthritis. and some %neuritis, and
others rheumatism. I lost weight
and was always tired and worn
out. 1t made me lose my appe-
title, and I was always weak and
nervous. I could not ride, as it
was too painful. I tried all
kinds of medicines and pills but
never: got any results. A friend
suggested I try Wong Suns
Chinese Herbs. I tried them for
a few weeks and could see an
improvement every day. Now I
feel like a new man. I went
back to work. and never have
any pain, even though I ride
all the time. I would recommend
Wong Suns Chinese Herbs to
anyone suffering from these
ailments"
