Miss Margaret Schriever went to Iowa City, Ia Wednesday of last week to attend the July convocation of the state university, when her brother, William Schriever. received the degree of docter for philosophy. This is probably the first instance of a Dakota county boy receiving the degree of Ph. D. The body of the unidentified man which was found in the rail. oad yards at South Sioux City, just east of the depot, on Sunday, July 17th, was buried in the Taylor cemetery north west of Homer on Wednesday of last week. According to reports there is somp question as to whether the man was killed by being run over by n freight train When found imme diately after being run over the body was seemingly cold, and little if any blood was found where the accident was supposed to have occurred. Lorenzo Whitchorn, a former resi dent of Dakota City, died at his homo in Omaha, July 20, 1921, of heart failure. He was working on his lawn when stricken, and died without re gaining consciousness. He is sur vived by his vife, Mrs. Laura White horn; oneson, Edward Whitchorn, of Omaha; and four daughters, Mrs. W. H. Bowdloar, of Cushing, Okla.; Mrs. D. A. Smith, of Los Angeles, Cal.; Mrs. George E. Burdick, of Sioux City, Iowa; and Mrs. A. M. Blackwell, Portland, Ore. Mr. Whitchorn was a Civil War veteran. The department of agriculture es timates that nearly 7,000,000 domes tic animals were lost from disease or exposure on the farms of the United States for the yea." ending with April 1921. Their value was nbout $150,000,000. These losses comprise about 309,000 horses and mules, 585,000 lambs, 1,223,000 mature sheep, 1,743,000 cattle, and 2,910,000 hogs. While these numbers are large, a mild winter was favorable to low mortality. Animal losses fdom dis eases are declining as the various public agencies, veterinarians, and farmers better understand how to combat them. A number of cases of fever among children have been reported from nearby towns, and the cause is gen erally attributed to the children swimming in Crystal lake while the parties were in camp there. This may be right tn some cases, as the camping parties allow their children to lay about in the shallow, luke warm water of the beaches for hours at a time, and all times of the day, which Is surely enough to bring on sickness, even to an able-bodied per son. m Bathing, like eating, or any thing else, should be done with some system of regularity, and no harm will then come from it. The J. H. Blackburn home was raided Saturday night by Sheriff Geo. Cain and deputies, and a poker game was found running in full blast. Blackburn was arrested on a charge of operating a gambling re sort, and seven other men and boys were arrested fo- frequenting the place and gambling. Blackburn was taken before Judge Graves at Pen der Tuesday where he entered a plua of guilty, and was fined $100 and costs and was given a jail sentence of twenty d.tyr the last ten of which his diet was to be broad and water. The other parties in the raid tender ed a fine of $5 each to Judge McKin ley and were discharged without trial. Value of Purehreils Conspicuous The value of purebred live stock, say specialists of the United States Department of Agricultuie, is most noticeable in those cases in which the capability of the nnjninls is meas ured most directly. Among farm animals the best illustration can lie found in dairy cattle, though careful yearly tests of milk and butter fat production are relatively recent af fairs. The enormous differences among dairy cows when gi.cr the same opportunity have been brought out clearly in a great number of cases, and these differences are strongly inherited through both the sire and dam. The average produc tion for purebreds and grades is much above the average of all milch cows, which is about 4,000 pounds of mik and 1G0 pounds of butterfat. notici: to hi;titii, cor.vrv CLAIMS.
