TH AT IS VERY FATAL Montana I^ads in Number of Cases. 70 Per Cent in That Redmond Bank of Commerce State Dyinx From Insert Hites— None Are Immune Frlnevllle Journal: Mrs. W. R Stack* of Lamonta died of spotted fever last Friday morning, aged 41 years. She wa* buried at Grey Butte cemetery Sunday. Mrs Stack* wa* horn In Kansas in IK73 and came to Oregon six year* ago. Three year* ago she wa* married to W. R. Stacks and since that Mine haa lived on the 1-amonta ranch. Reside* a husband, she I* survived by a daugh ter, Mis* Beulah Barker. This Is the third fatal case of spotted fever that ha* happened In thla part o f Central Oregon. Two last year and this case, which was especially virulent. The sage tick bit the woman on the breast, near the nipple, and the poison waa taken directly Into the blood. The symp tom* became alarming from the very flrst. Medical aid was called, but little could be done. She became de lirious In about ten days and four days after that her death ensued. She did not regain consciousness. Her body waa covered with dark purple spots varying In aise from a pea to the end of your thumb Little la known of the disease. Hr. Belknap haa been familiar with It In this country for 26 or 30 years. He wrote up the symptoms of a num ber of bis early cases and had the article published in an eastern medi cal Journal In the hope of getting some enlightenment on the subject, but could learn nothing. He and Hr. Marsden of Burns, compared notes on the disease, but no definite treatment was established. Hr. Belknap said: " I t Is only in the last 10 or 12 years that physi cian* have got much Information on the subject. The disease la epidemic In the Bitter Root Valley of Mon tana. Idaho. Wyoming. Nevada and Central Oregon. It Is especially virulent In Montana, where 70 per rent of those bitten die from the ef fects of the poison. In the other places mentioned the mortality varies from two to three per cent. The high and dry valleys seem to add viru lence to the poison. There is no known cure for the disease. The tick probably feeds on sage rats and other vermin and when distended with blood drops off on the ground and from there finds Its way to members of the human family. The bite ef fects all ages and both sexea alike and la dangerous from early March to July. The treatment Is symptom atic. largest advertisers In magaitnes and dally newspapers are the manu facturers of cigarettes. The goods sell for a amall amount of money per package and each advertisement the manufacturers put out costs a lot of money. They must get good returns on their outlay for advertis ing, for no one ever heard of a cigar ette or tobacco manufacturer going broke and discontinuing business. O.-W. R. « N.

IN TE RE ST PAID ON DEPOSITS PECULIAR LAW t RESULTS SO FAVORABLE TH EY W ILL MEET REGU LARLY Here Is Somethinx the Women May Not Be Entirely Con Topic* o f Interewt to Farmer* Were versant With DiM-UHNed and Many Valuable Points Brought Out QUESTIONS CITIZENSH IP OF M ARRIED WOMEN Some ThinxK They Should Know When Makinx Takinx Final Up Land or Proof — Will Help Out in Their Filinxs The Colony Coyote of Wyoming publishes the following story that may be of interest to women in this section of the state: Every married woman who takes up land under any of our land laws requiring that the entryman be a citlxen of the United State* must make a showing as to her ctllxensblp. whether she Is a native born citlaen or not. If this la neglected the entry will be held up and an affidavit of cltlxenahlp required. Many married women who are required to furnish this affidavit of citlienshlp regard It as a useless bit of red tape, tu t It Is very necessary owing to a peculiar ity In our laws. On March 2, 1907, Congress passed a law decreeing that henceforth all married women are of the same eiti- xenship as their husbands, but thla law does not apply to persona who were married before March 2. 1907. It is plain to see that if an Ameri can horn girl marries a. foreigner ahe lose* her ettisenship and can only regain it by Inducing her nuaband to become naturalised. If a foreign born girl cornea over to thla country and marries an American cltlien ahe straightway becomes a legal citlxen of the United States. This law is uot well understood by moat people and much confusion re sults from Its working. Moat mar ried wbmen believe that they are of the same cltlxenahlp as before mar riage and If asked would unhesita tingly swear that they are native born citlxen*. notwithstanding the fart that they may have married an alien since March I. 1907, and there by lost their citlienshlp. The land office haa found that It cannot rely upon the almplo asser tion of a married woman because she Is liable not to be fully Informed on the point, and therefore they require that every married woman show be yond the poeelbtllty of a doubt that she la a citlxen of the United States according to law. It ts not a matter In which the Interior Department has any option. Congress has made the law* which govern cltlxenahlp, and has alao decreed that the pub- In order to meet and talk with A. E. Lovett, Crook county agricultur ist. the farmers In the neighborhood of the Whlterock on the Deschutes river met at the home of O. E. An derson Saturday night. May 30. After a short talk by Mr. Lovett all present took part In an open dis cussion of topics of interest to the farmers in the neighborhood. This discussion Included the preparation of the land for the different crops grown, the growing of leguminous crops, the testing of new varieties, the use of bacteria cultures for alfal fa and clover, the feeding of dairy animals, the use of various crops for silage, the feeding of silage, the us« of fertilisers and many other topics of Interest. There were ten farmers and their wives present and all decided that much good could be accomplished by having regular meetings in the neighborhood. After a wholesome lunch of cake and coffee, furnished by Mrs. Anderson, It was decided to meet at Loren McFarland’s on the night of Saturday. June 13. The meeting adjourned at 11:30. It is expected that they will hold meetings regularly every two weeks and all farmers and others interest ed in good farming and the better ing of our farm conditions are cor dially Invited to attend. 11c lands pass only to persons who are legal citlxen* of the United States. The Interior Department, through the Land Office, must take such steps ax are necessary to carry out the provisions of the law, and thla showing as to cltlxenahlp of married women la one of them. If every married woman would re member this and whenever she is called upon to show her cRIsenahlp make a full showing as to the date of her marriage, and If married be fore March 2, 1907. then show her cltlxenahlp by birth or naturalisa tion. If married since March 2, 1907. show the ettisenship of her husband, •he would avoid being obliged to re turn later and make affidavit to theee facts. A woman who haa married an alien since the passage of the Act of March 2, 1907. must produce a copy of her husband's naturalisation papers, duly certified to by the clerk of the court before which he was naturalised, and must make affidavit as to the fact of having been mar ried to this man since March 2. 1907, in order to prove her ettisenship.
