Conditions in general arc such as to make possible the development of the highest type of animal life. Nearly all the representative breeds o.' cattle arc to be fennd here, and large shipments of beef and dairy products are made from the railroad stations and Puget Sound ports daily. Yet the Industry is still in its infancy. Physician Proposes to Substitute Laboratory for the Electric Chair "The great need of the day in ex perimental medicine and surgery Is a supply of live human beings to ex perintcnt upon. I have no doubt that with plenty of human material to ex periment upon wizards like Carrel and Flexner would within the next two years solve almost all the prob lems which arc yet baffling the medi cal profession." Thus spoke Dr. George G. Ram baud, director of the Pasteur Insti tute "I hold no brief to speak in behalf of those scientists, and it may be that they would even disapprove of my suggestion, but I can't help feeling that rabbits, sheep or even gorillas are .very poor substitutes for human beings when it come to testing the remedies to be applied to human beings. "Let me give you a personal ex ample of the difficulties we encounter in our experimentation. Take hydro probia. The period of incubation is rather indefinite, though never shorter than three weeks. I have known people to be attacked by hy drophobia as long as a year after be ing bitten "At the present day there is no cure for hydrophobia. We can pre vent it, but can not cure it. And even our preventive medication is not perfect. We give the patient one in jection daily for eighteen days. Four teen days afterward immunity is as sured. Eighteen and fourteen days make thirty-two days from the time the patient is bitten until the pre-, mtivc cure takes effect. "Wc may make successful a dan gerous experiment on the whole ani mal series from the guinea pig to jhe gorilla. Hut then it takes a pretty nervy man, I would almost say a conscienceless dare-devil, to jump from gorilla to man. You are justi fied in experimenting on a man who is m a hopeless condition. If a pa tient is doomed and a daring opera tion might cither save his life or kill him, you might take the risk. But when a subject is otherwise strong and healthy what can we do? "I once saved a man's life by In jecting tetanus serum directly into lus brain, an operation never per formed before in this country. I might have never dared to do it, however, if the other surgeons hadn't declared the patient beyond their help. If the man had had even the slimmest fighting chance I would not have submitted him to an un tried experiment of whose technique I was practically ignorant. As a matter of fact, intracerebral injec tions are not the least bit dangerous, but at the time they were considered an bound to result fatally. "The cure for exophthalmic goitre, or Graves' disease, was found in the same way. A physician's wife was suffering terribly from the disease and losing ground very rapidly. In fact, a brother physician had declared to her husband that how long she would live was only a question of hours. "My proposition may sound dread ful to some sentimental and ignorant souls. Still every man engaged in surgical or bacteriological research could recite cases of people who have volunteered to take the place of rabbits or guinea pigs in laboratories. Everybody has read about the poison squad how easy it was to find a group of healthy young men ready tc submit themselves to the action of certain poisons under the super vision of a scientist, There was no material inducement; not even fame was promised them. "Dr. Carrel of the Rockefeller In stitute once received a letter from a boy who offered himself for expert ments of any kind provided he could obtain a pension for Ins mother. "There is good material going to waste every year in every state pris on, going to waste without being of any use to the world. I allude to the men sentenced to death. Why de stroy their lives wantonly, stupidly. with the excuse that we arc making them pay their debt to society? The fact is that they are not paying any thing at all. "If a man has destroyed life can we say that he reimburses the world by having his own life destroyed? If a firebug burns down my house shall I go and burn his house? That i too primitive, too childish to be even discussed Dy executing a murderer wc make the world poorer by two human lives instead oft only one, the'victim's. If a man destroys value, property, isn't it more logical to set him at work creating anew the things destroyed, replacing the prop erty damaged? Such is the use to which I would put convicted crimi nals. "Instead of the lethal chamber, with its absurd and wasteful electric chair, I would have in Sing Sing and other prisons an experimental labor atory. This was done in pant cen turies and many a time surgeons of the French and German courts were authorized to try difficult operations on people sentenced to die." A GOOD EXAMPLE Mr. Vincent Astor, who recently became of age and came into the in heritance of his father's estate, has shown his manliness and hi dispo sition to exercise a careful supervi sion over the vast amount of wealth now in his possession by making a personal investigation of his estate as one of the first acts of his ma jority, in order that he might be conversant with each separate piece of property, but particularly that he might know if any of his numerous buildings were being used for im moral purposes This step on the part of Mr. Astor was prompted by the revelations during recent inves tigations into the vice -situation in New York City that many of the most notorious resorts of the city were owned by men of at least nom inal prominence. In many instances these conditions existed because the immediate owners had placed their property in the hands of others who did not exercise the proper amount of precaution in leasing the build ings. Mr. Astor has forestalled any such condition in his properties by a personal Inspection of them, doing it quietly and without ostentation. It is apparently a genuine and unsen sational attempt on the part of a large property owner to Inform him self immediately and thoroughly of tht condition of the property for which he is ultimately responsible. This action of Mr. Astor is laudable and affords an excellent example to other large property owners. An Even Break. Mr. Jinks: "You've spent H mortal hours and $35 and what have you got to show for it? One hat, worth about 3.50." Mrs. Jinks: "True. And last week you spent 5 days and $118, and what have you got to show for it? One fish story about a big trout that got away, and an awful cold in your head." Country Gentleman. In the death of Whitelaw Reld the nation loses a valuable servant. High Cost of Living Due for a Drop "I believe the high cost of living bugaboo will have disappeared two cr from now." Such was the declaration of Daniel O. Lively, chief of the livestock dc partmcut of the Panama-Pacific Ex position, in the court of a discussion in the international livestock show in Chicago recently. "This country Is going to see won ders worked by the farmers and live stock raisers within the next few years," he said. "Everywhere I go and everything I hear indicates that ue are on the threshold of an era of great prosperity." Mr. Lively blames the underpro duction of cattle for the present con dition of living costs. He said the bulk of Western lauds are best fitted for stock grazing and that the farm c sold his birthright for a mess of cold turkey when he turned from the splendid beef production of the old days to raising grain. "The production of livestock I going to grow in leaps and hound for the reason that the farmer and smalt ranchman finally have realized the profit there is in raising livestock 'especially as contrasted again! truck farming," he continued. "The generous prices paid for stock in the open market, combined with the work of the agricultural colleges to ward this end, has helped convince the farmer that he'd better change and reap this new field Two years will see the West back at its old game of cattle raising and perhaps the old-style cowboy may come back, too " Big Land Sale Gradually and surely, the remain ing lauds in Indian reservations are being sold out to settlers and the na tive American i being crowded into cloier quarters Just now the big gest sale of lands ever conducted by the Government is in progress in Ok lahoma, in the Choctaw and Chicka saw nations, the area comprising ag ricultural, coal and timber lauds. It was begun at Chickasaw and will close at Odabel, in McCtirtaiu county, on December Sith. The land is in 'ii counties and is being told at the county seats. Some of the 000,000 acres contains timber, but the most of it is valu able for agricultural or grazing pur poses. When the lands of the Choc taws and Chickasaws were allotted among those tribes there was a con siderable portion left over in each of the Indian nations, and it is this resi due that is now being disposed of. In addition to the unallotted lands there are to be sold also the segre gated coal and asphalt lands and tim ber tracti of the Choctaw and Chick asaw nations, and it is understood that these will go on the market soon after January 1st. There are 415,000 acres of the mineral and coal lands, and 1,'."J2,000 acres of segregated tim ber lands. The men who appraised the Okla homa timber lands were experts, who came as a rule from Ilritish Colum bia and other portions of the North west, The expert appraisers were amazed at the conditions they found and which upset the theories of the For estry Ilureau relative to reforesta tion. They found that the areas from which timber had been cut was re foresting naturally and the new giowth of timber to be in a flour ishing condition. In the rapidly dis appearing pine forests of the north, and. on the mountain ranges of the Northwest, it is well established that the only means of reforesting an area from which the timber has been cut or burned is by a tedious and expensive method.

Jim and Joe, respectively aged 10 and IS years, were told to go out and cut and idle wood. Hoth played until dusk.

Quick as a flash the unfortunate young fjbber answered: "Oh, I've been piling it up," Country Gentle- Soda Crackers are ex tremely sensativc to moisture.
