Baker, issued recently, the disease known as scabies or mange will be eradicated from the state within the next two years. There are now twenty-eight counties in the west ern part of the state quarantined be cause of scabies. The government and state inspectors are working hand in hand trying to eradicate this dis ease and they are succeeding in doing it rapidly. During the last year the quarantine has been removed from eight counties and the coming year will remove the quarantine from eight or ten more. The cattlemen are do ing all in their power to assist the inspectors. Many of them have dip ping vats of their own and dip their cattle regularly each spring and fall. Texas fever has already been almost eradicated. It is the most dreaded dis ease among livestock, but during the past year fewer cases of it have been reported to the state department than ever before in the history of that de partment. New case3 developed only In two counties, Montgomery and Chautauqua, and these were very light cases. There were no cases in the central and south central portions of the state. Commissioner Baker ex pects to have the disease almost com pletely wiped out so far as Kansas is concerned within the next year. To Triple Packing Plant. The Cud ahy Packing company has decided to enlarge its plant in Wichita and will spend in buildings and improvements on the present plant $1,000,000 within the next year. This action was de termined, by the company some time ago, but it was not made public until the contract for the sale of forty acres of land in the packing house district was filed in the office of the register of deeds. The price paid for the land is $20,000. The principal addition to the present plant will be for the beef packing department. The plans are all drawn up and show that the pres ent capacity of the plant will be tripled. To Investigate the Bugs. Wichita is to have a government field station for insect investigation. The city will furnish a small tract of land and a suitable building. When such insects as green bugs, which did so much dam age in Kansas a few years ago, make their appearance, it will be the work of the station there to gather infor mation regarding the insect and if It is possible of finding some way of de stroying it. clerk of the railway mail service with headquarters at Wichita for six years, has been appointed superintendent of the division of railway mail adjust ment in the postoffice department. Syl Dixon is Dead. Syl Dixon, fa mous in Kansas for advertising trains he took from this state Into the east, died in Wichita. He was 51 years old.

The preliminary trial of Albert HInk ley. at Osborne, charged with the mur der of Thomas La rock, at Alton, on the night of December 2, was held before Justice E. Y. Morris.

Helm Brewing company of Kansas City was fined $100 in the federal court for misbranding real beer. It shipped several barrels of bottled beer to a customer in Nerton and branded the beer "Hopon," which was advertised to contain less than 2 per cent alcohoL Pure food inspectors discovered that it wa3 not "Hopon" at all but was real beer carrying more than four per cent alcohol. The mis branding was done to protect the New ton jointlsts against the prohibitory law. This Applies to Other Cities. In the supreme court decision render ed by Justice Mason he holds that Ex Chief of Police Stahl of Topeka is liable for the full value of the intoxi cating liquors seized by him while per forming his duties as chief of police. The case in point was that brought by Charles M. Hines of Topeka for recov ery of the full value of the seized goods. Seven other cases of similar nature against Stahl are decided in the same way. The decision affirms the judgment of Judge Dana of the Shaw nee district court. In his opinion Jus tice Mason held that "Intoxicating liquor Is not subject to seizure on exe cution, because the same statute for bids its sale except by certain per sons, for restricted purposes, and up on affidavit of the buyer showing the occasion of his purpose." Joint Committee Will Investigate. It is expected that when Governor Hoch returns from his trip through the east he will again offer to appoint a commission with Governor Haskell of Oklahoma for the purpose of investi gating the charges made against the officials of the Kanss penitentiary In recent newspaper interviews by Kate Barnard of Oklahoma. Kate Barnard has charged that the Oklahoma prisoners confined in the Kansas penitentiary are subjected to inhuman treatment; that hey are beat en, starved, placed in dungeons, hung up by the thumbs and tortured in var ious other ways. She made this same sort of an attack last summer and at that time Governor Hoch asked Gover nor Haskell if he desired to have a commission appointed for the purpose of making an investigation. Now that the charges have been repeated and added to it Is expected that Governor Hoch will Insist upon the appointment of such a commission. Railroads Win a Victory. In their fight to prevent the Kansas railroad commissioners from enforc ing an order reducing freight rates In the state, the railroads have won a victory in the findings of Judge Z. T. Hazen, special master, in the case concerning the Leavenworth and To peka line. The railroad board's order reduces rates ab6ut 20 per cent. The rail roads contended they could not pay expenses under this order, and got a temporary restraining order from the United States circuit court to prevent its enforcement. The case against the Leavenworth and Topeka road wras selected as a test. The state showed the stock of the Leavenworth and Topeka railway as owned, 49 per cent by the Union Pacific, and 51 per cent by the Santa Fe, and contended that It should not be considered as a separate road. The special master held that the road should be considered by itself. It is operated by the Santa Fe. It was brought out in the testimony that it never does pay expenses, and thnt its joint owners always have to put up money to meet them. Has Bill for Good Roads. Senator-elect J. T. Reed of Smith county, who announced the. preparation of a Torrens land title bill for intro duction in the senate at the coming session, also has a bill providing for good roads. The bill is not yet com pleted but it will be ready for intro duction by the time the legislature convenes. It will place the construc tion and maintenance of public high ways in the hands of competent en gineers. Each county would have aJ general road superintendent. It would be his duty to superintend the, work on all roads with the idea of having them for use for all time to come. Reed Is a new man in the senate, but he promises to wake things up a bit with bills on subjects of Interest Supt. of Temperance Union. Frank W. Stahl, former chief of police of Topeka, has been appointed superintendent of the State Temper ance Union, and will direct the field forces, both in raising funds and en forcing the state prohibitory law In the state. Can Save Much Money. According to an estimate prepared by State Printer McNeal, after an x haustive investigation, the state of Kansas can print its own text-books for use in the public schools of the state for little more than half what they now cost. The total cost to Kan sas people for school books during the past year was $477,342. ; McNeal estimates that the same books could have been printed by the' state and delivered to the public at a cost of $253,152.35, a saving of $224, 139.65. Separate School Possible. Cities of Kansas can provide separ ate schools for white and negro child ren in the grades below the high school but the schools for negro child ren must have equal facilities and be as easy of access as those provided for white children. This is a decision of the supreme court, emanating from Parsons, where the nejro . chiMrra were compelled to s.tten3 a srheel srur round?a by tcIItchI irz.-cl'.s. They had Once Refused to Obey. Major Fred Lewis of Marion has announced his candidacy for sergeant-at-arms of the senate. He is an old soldier and is also a member of the militia. During the legislative war of '93 he refused to obev the order of Governor Lewelllng and fire upon the Republican members of the legisla ture. For this he was court - mar tialed and dismissed from the service. Sanitarium at Penitentiary. The next legislature will be asked to pass a bill appropriating $2,000 for the erection of a sanitarium for tuber culosis patients in the state peniten tiary. During the American prison congress, which convened in Rich mond, the visiting delegates were shown through the sanitarium for con sumptives, situated on the prison farm near Richmond. Since that visit War den Haskell has been working on plans to submit to the board and the state legislature for the erection of a hospital at Lansing. Will Test The Law. Frank Arnold of Clark county has. filed a case in the supreme court which will test the right of a cattle man to ride upon a freight train in which he has one or more car loads of cattle. Arnold shipped cattle from Clark county over the Santa Fe and following the custom he rode in the caboose of the same train his car load3 of cattle were in. He waS ordered off the train by the brakeman and when he refused to move was put off for cibly. He was bruised up consider ably and brought suit against the rail road company for $5,000. In the lower court Arnold lost and he has appealed the case to the supreme court in order to test the matter and get a final de cision. Cost of State Primary. An analysis of the table by Secre tary of State Denton, showing the cost of the Kansas state wide primary fur nishes much food for thought. Here are some of the striking facts presented: Every vote cast at the primary in Pratt county cost that county $3.50, while every vote cast in Shawnee county only cost that county 28 cents. In Cheyenne and Grant counties each vote cost $3. In four counties Clark, Logan, Sherman and Stevens each vote cost $2. In Hodgeman and Stanton counties each vote cost $2.50. 'i In Comanche, Greeley, Harper, Has kell, Kearney, Kiowa, Pawnee, Phil lips, Rush, Scott and Wichita each vote cost $1.50. In Barber, Barton, Edwards, Ford, Grove, Graham, Hamilton, Lane, Meade, Ness, Rawlins, Rooks, Seward, Sheridan, Stafford and "Wallace coun ties each vote cost $1. The cost of 28 cents per vote in Shawnee was the lowest. Sedgwick was second with a cost of 31 cents per vote; Atchison third, with 34 cents. The average cost of the 169,634 votes cast in the entire state was 65 cents per vote. In ninety-nine counties out of 105 reporting, the total cost of the pri mary election was $102,606.04, or a trifle over $1,000 per county. Decatur county led by casting 75 per cent of its vote at the primary. Reno county second with 55 per cent. Not to exceed a dozen pther counties cast 50 per cent. Pratt county only cast 16 per cent. The primary cost Grant and Stan ton counties one-fourth what their to tal state taxes amount to ; Shawnee one-thirtieth. Hire Teachers for Three Years. The educational commission has de cided to recommend that the legisla ture enact a law permitting boards of education to contract with teachers for a three-year-pjriod. The present law only enables a board to contract one year with a teacher. Might Combine Great Schools. Chancellor Frank ' Strong of the University of Kansas believes that the state is not using its educational funds to the best advantage so long asKan sas continues to maintain two schools of engineering and fine arts, one at the university in Lawrence and the other at the agricultural college in Manhattan. This, Dr.' Strong says, Is not only expensive but unnecessary. It is In his biennial report to the governor that Chancellor Strong will make his idea public concerning what should be done to prevent duplication in the two big state educational insti tutions the university and agricul tural college. The report contains 40, 000 words. It deals with almost every phase of education in Kansas. To Amend Prairie Dog Law. Representative Guilbert of Logan Co. will try and amend the prairie dog law so as to make it compulsory to poison prairie dogs. He said: "The law as It stands at the pres ent time is optional, and some to-n-ship poisons the pests and the adjoin ing township doesn't, and the rodents migrate to the open township and de stroy the growing crops. It seems to me that in townships where dog towns exist that road taxe3 should be work ed out by men spreading poison in stead of working on the roads." New Military Roads. The federal government has decided to branch out again In the construc tion of military roads. The first one to be built will run from Fort Leaven worth to Fort Riley, KaoL, a distance of 140 miles. A bill authorizing the construction of the Kansas highway will soon t-e reported by the house committee on military affairs, and its. author, Representative Ar.thoay, feels certain tlat - r.l I- LEWIS' "SINGLE BINDER."

His head, face, and neck were covered with large scabs which he would rub until they fell off. Then blood and matter would run out and that would be worse. Friends coming to see him said that if he got well he would be disfigured for life. When it seemed as if he could possibly stand it no longer, I used some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint ment, and Cuticura Resolvent. That was the first night for nearly a year that he slept.
