THE ROAD TO VICTORY

peace.
Among the essential things
accomplished or in process of
accomplishment may be in
cluded the financial backing
given the allies, the ship build
ing program, the construction
nf 22.000 aircraft, the raising
of our first line army or 750.
00 men. the draft army sys
tem, food control, new methods
of fighting the submarines and
"the use of our naval forces in
unti-submarine work.
WThile we are doing these
things and arranging to do as
much more a is necessary it is
immaterial whether or not
-jsch citizen beats his breast j
Jind runs around in a '-ircle as i
do the African natives when
warfare is at hand. It is better
to cut out the hysteria and
circle running and get down to
business. We cannot whip the
kaiser with torn torn work. The
spirit of the people is import
ant but spirit alone will not
win the war because all the na
tions involved have plenty of
spirit. The side with the men,
the equipment, the organiza
tion and the generalship is go-
iii)T to win. God will fight as
always on the side of the best
and be.-t handled brigades. In
that respect we have the supre
macy now and this supremacy
is going to become more and
more marked. Therefore as
time goes by we are going to
overcome the foe and we are
going to make the world safer
than it has been for nations
that place their faith in justice
"nd democracy.
Is the prospect pessimistic
or is it one to cause good
cheer?

nesota and Michigan iron ore
from Lake Superior ports back
to Lake Erie ports. . This is the
formula which has built up the
greatest iron industry centers
in the country and made pos
sible in the United States Steel
Corporation the largest organi
zation of industrial capital in
the world.
Coal up and iron ore down
via the river route is near
enough of this formula to make
the voyage of the six barges a
matter of very special local in
terest. We may recall that
South Chicago has successfully
varied the original formula by
starting coal from the lower
end of Lake Michigan and
(bringing ore back.
! One trip does not make a
new trade route, any more than
0ne swallow makes a summer,
:but we have reason for optim-
ism about this puffing tug ana
, its string of barges. No expert
;vho ever examined them has
.failed to concede St. Louis' pre-
'eminent advantages as an iroc
center. It is already a con
sumer of basic iron in huge
amounts 1000 tons a day or
more, much of it brought by
rail from Eastern points and
pig iron at a lower cost of de
livery could materially increase
this consumption. Ore mined
J at low cost, and near-by coal
I assembled here by cheap water
l transport would mean the re
alization of many St. Louis
dreams.
The down voyage with the
current, of cc-urse, will take less
!time than the up voyage
J against the current, but it looks
j as if the round trip by river
J; could not be made in very
.imuch less than a month,
whereas the round trip between
Lake Erie and Lake Superior
takes only about a week. But
this first voyage will have
many suggestions as to the
value of the new route and as
to ways of improving its ad
vantages. Much can be done to cut the

REPORT Oil DISEASE
AFFLICTING HORSES
B. V". iJimms. professor of vetri
nary medicine at O. A. C. han made
the following report on tnr study of
the disease that has been causing
many deaths nmon tmatil!u county
horses :
About July 1, the State Livestock
-Sanitary Koar-i and the Agriculture
College and Kxper ment Statiun be
a study of the so-called walking
disease in the vicinity of Pendleton.
The symptoms which have been nutn.i
agree so closely with those describ
ed by some Carman investieators x
occurring in lupine poisoning that it ;
was thought advisable to study this !
plant very carefully Its distribution
on the ranches wh'-re walking disease I
has occurred was noted and one ani
ma' was fed this plant. Ho far. the
animal fed lupine has not shown any !
symptom? of poisoning. The plant
was very well matured at the time ,
it was fed. however, and the animal
would trtkp nnlv vr? ui-iutl ri minra I
of it each day Attempts to transmit
the disease by injecting blood from a
sick animal into a sound one wer
made but these were not followed bv
any symptoms In the Injected animal.
A great many ranchers believe tar
weed is in some way connected with
the disease. Some hay contain inn
large amounts of tar weed has been
shipped to the experiment station
and this will be fed during the fall
and winter. So far attempts nt dis
covering the crowe nf the disease Kve
not been successful. Symptoms would
indicate, however, that the cause is
In mo me way associated with a vege
table poison of some type
Symptoms have been studied and
blood examinations have been made
The blood findings are quite charac
teristic and it is quite possible that
an examination of the blood may en
;tblc one to diagnove the diseast be
fore symptoms appear. If this va m
ie ilnni', :t may he'p in cht'cking the
trouble before it be'"mes K'l'eral on
a ramrh.
Autopsies have Iwen held on eight
animals and material has been col
lected for miscrscopic study. The au
topsb-s presented the same pictures
in a'l animals but it was not poss b'-?
to come to a conclusion as to the
cause of the trouble.
At the present time, the only ad
vice which can be given is to feet I
clan hay as f:ir as is possible, to di
nfeet thoroughly all barns and yards
in which affected animals have been
kept anil to u-e mutes rather tha n
hors-s on farms where the trouble in
prevab'Til The stufTy of this disense
will be continued as far as available
funds permit and ny further pro

work justifies it.
