Cnttle lllppnl In Oil.
Secretary It. J. Edwards of tho LUo
Slock Sanitary commission is decidedly
cnthuslustlc over the experiment of
dipping cattlo in oil to remove fever
ticks tho first operation being con-
ducted October 22 at Noblo utidor tho
supervision of Dr. Lowis nnd Mr. Kd-
wards. Sixty-four head of Texas steers
wero dipped to test tho efficacy of tho
biand of oil known as extra dynamo
now used In the cnttlo dipping vats in
Oklahoma for the destruction of fever
ticks. The cattlo dipped on the above
date wero allvo with tickB when they
wero driven through a shuto and fell
from a trap iufo tho oil vat which was
filled with flya fcot of oil. The cattlo
usually fell In head first going com-
pletely under rising to the top and
swimming to the far end of the vat
whero they could walk out on an in-
cline on which they wero held for a
short time to allow tho oil to drip fiom
their coats. Tho dynamo oil used con-
tains sulphur und other chemicals
which combined havo tho power of
destroying tho ticks without Injuring
tho eyes skin or hair of the animals
immersed in it. All tho cattlo passed
through tho Immersion without acci
eldent and emerged in good shape. Af-
ter Immersion the cattle woro driven
to feeding lots about 13 miles from
Noblo where they will bo kept undo
tho observation of Dr. Lewis. The oil
usually destroys tho ticks within 24
hours. Cattlo will bo dipped as fast as
they uro presented. After .cattlo arc
dipped they may bo shipped to any
part of tho territory.
Woodnou nnd tha Indian".
Tho story being told that Major
vYoodson was obliged to starve his
Indiuns to mako them send their chil-
dren to school was hatched in tho
brain of somo ono not conversant with
Major Woodson or the Indian charac-
ter. The major has had no trouble In
getting tho Indians to send their chil-
dren to school where ho could person-
ally look after tho matter. At the Red
Moon school theio was a little trouble
among tho older Indians but it vtus
soon quieted down when tho major in-
structed his sub-agent at Red Moon to
give the Indians their full rations pro-
vided they sent their children to
school. Tho jjovcrnraent erected a
large school building and employed a
full corps of white employes to take
charge of it whose salaries in the ag-
irreiruto amount to J550 a month. When
the school opened only 17 children re-
ported and it was deemed necessary to
discharge uoaio of the teucliers or pay
ttictn for services which wero never
rendered. Major Woodson gnvo the
matter much thought and decided to
cut off tho rations of the whole band
until tho lofrnctory ones sent their
children to school. The Indians who
had children nt school went nmong
those who had not and iusldo of two
weeks every Indian who had a child
over six years old sent it to school.

t large majority of the people are suffering
with to-day. Dytpepsia is a chaiacteristic

worry exhaustion; any of these produce a
lack of vitality in the system by causing the

resides Mr. Ernest Snider; a man of sterling
integrity whose veracity cannot be doubted.

would not give your Compound for all
