Leonard Wood has inavr;" rated a line of work at Camp Fun ston which will be of far-reaching value to the large force of men under his command, as well as to the coun try at large. In addition to their army training, the Camp Funslon men have educaticnal facilities such is would he beyond the reach pf very many of them elsewhere. Py arrangement with the Kansas tate Agricultural college, which is it Manhattan, Kansas, only a few miles from Camp Funston, instruc tors from the college give frequent lectures at the camp on all branches if. agricultural work stock raising, 'and fertilization and so on, includ ing agriculture in its broadest sense. s most of the men under General Wood's command are from the farm ing population, this course of in- t ruction should be invaluable to fheni on their return to civil life. In addition to that, the college has of fered to take three hundred men in he institution's work shops and lab oratories and instruct them in a ?ourse of mechanical engineering. General Wood has taken full advan tage of this offer. There will be barracks near the college. " ami as many men as possible will be quar 'cred there and comfortably cared for while receiving the instruction iO generously offered. At the camp itself instruction in various lines of study is going on. The mornings, weather permitting, ire devoted to strictly military in struction and army work, while the nen generally have the rest of the time to spend by improving themselv es in general study. The illiterates, of whom there is a not very large, but by no means negligible percent age, have full opportunity for in struction in the elementary school branches which, outside of the army, many of them would feel more or 'ess humiliated in asking for and ac cepting. This is putting the army, while we are on a peace basis, to the very best use that could be made of it. It is making a sort of university, which is not only creating American soldiers and American soldiers are second to none in the world but which is also lifting to a higher level th.o standards of American citizenship. There is in all this a breadth of vis ion and an intelligent patriotism quite characteristic of General Wood. It is worthy of him at his best, and that is saying a great ileal. What ever this admirable soldier's person al feelings may be at the all but feminine petty spitefulness to which he has been subjected, he has uttr ly sunk such feelings and has given himself as whole heartcdly to the du- Newca-tlr doctor hnd s r.cee -ti fully treated 4 ' 1 " "fin" patients f.r swine fever. Nov. comes the absolute confirmation of our suspicion:'. And it i; ncu'i tr make our hair stand n oi.d. It i swine-fever with a vengeance. That fact was first e.-tabli-l ed hy doctors in France, when our soldier.-' began to fall ill of the mysteriou rr.ak. dy. The doctors reported; me the importation of American bacv was stopped. So far so good : Thanks to these powerful measure- the ravages of the plague in The army we re checked. Put v hat a .lene here at heme. whcr the r:.;r ket was Icing flooded with Amer ican baron? Nothing absolutely nothing: The importation was not forbidden, :irid the nv'.lie were n-.-? old. Why not? There are ques tions which everybody who has been infected, and every relative of every body who hn died of the plagr.e. will demand to be answered. Why werp we not teld? Why was ot ;ne importation stepped? It must ; be mentioned here that the rerm ' ef this di-ense ;s FO virulent that : " hen a pig is infected i: has to be i '::!! 1 ami buried straight awav. ' .virh Yitlphite'i to kill the poi.-cn. It Is not neees'-nry to eat the bacon to ', Infected. In fact, vegetarians are easy victims. If you import the ba'-oi) the whole country is open to he ravages of th- disease. And we v.ant to know why we were ocliver- 1 to this pia;;ur. Is it believable hat the military authorities in France know and the food control if pat t meat he re did not know. And, if the department knev.-, what inter est otiier than the public interest ?.uld prevent, it from immcdU'te and ir;i:e action? Why ha such kin(la"--s been .shown be th to the American meat trust and to Ameri can bacon? A candid statement on these pressing points must be made it once; all the people can't be fooled --or victimise:!--all the time! -J din Pull. Any one that has raised hogs know that a man is immune from 'eg cholera, and also a!', farm rni mals. Some of the bacon rushed :;vo.r here was of poor ouality and I ;::c.w : nie was not much better 'lipn salt pork. I don't think any -f the American bacon is of a good quality as the Irish and Danish, which is young lean hogs or rather pigs and is very mild cured and comes to the market in whole halves only the head, fet and the leaf lard being removed. I den't think "hat kind of curing would kerp good !n the climate of the states. FORMER PLATTS MOUTH PASTOR DIES REV. JOSEPH M. BARTIK FORM ER PRIEST HOLY K0S0RY CATHOLIC CHURCH DEAD.
