WAR OF CONQUEST.

the great Powers will not permit Turkey ana
Greece TO wage war of territorial conquest Ihey

disturbance Of the autonomy Of either would prob
ably seriously impair the relations of the Powers

which has been the first thought and purpose OF
every country in Europe since the Berlin confer
ence in 1878 Russia would not consent for Greece
TO take Constantnople neither would Austrla-iuh-
gary which has long had its eye cast In that d.

that II would have been better for all concerned 10

talk with Professor Grosvenor. OF Amherst Cohege'

thorty on Turkey and Greece, having spent many
years in Robert College, Constantinople He says
tina; Greece is superior 10 Turkey on the sea, and
that II the conflict could be confined to the water
II would speedily end IN victory for the Greeks
AS TO the army Professor Grosvenor believes Tur-
key is not in any appreciate degree better of than
Greece"
Would the prosc cution Of war endanger the lives
or property of the American residents in Turkey"
MI Foster was asked aura, Of .rooos for service
on the frontier should cause an uprising OF the
Kurds against the Armenians. In that case mis-
and protection by appealing to the nearest Euro
rean or American Consul. The war. both by rea-
son OF its remoteness and the comparatively small
number Of people engaged is not likely 10 be OF
importance in any respect to the United States
Mr. Foster called attention 10 an interesting
precedent for the action Of the Turkish Council
Of Ministers In declaring that war had broken out
owing to the advance Of the Greeks into Turkish
territory IL was not declaration Of war, he said,
nm simply that war had broken out Similar
action was taken by the United States the begin
ming Of the Mexican War. There was no declara-
zion Of war but Congress passed joint resolution
nv an overwhelming majority declaring that war
eyisted nv reason of the invasion of the territory
Of the United States by Mexican troops. This pro-
ceeding he said was unusual. ana the parallel be-
tween the two cases striking.

Protect the Hogs.
Hog cholera is prevalent in many
parts of the country, and every effort
possible should be put forth to lessen
it's ravages. A. W. Biting, of the
Indiana experiment station, says that
Indiana last year lost $50 $50 hogs by
disease, entailing a property loss of
three and quarter million dollars.
Nearly the entire loss was due to chol-
era and swine plague. 1t was distrib-
uted as follows: In 232 townships the
loss was from ten to twenty per cent;
in 1877, from 20 to 80 per cent; in SO
from 80 to 40 per cent; in SO from 40
to so per cent; in "a from so TO so
per cent: in IL from 60 to 70 per cent,
and in one n per cent, while the re-
mainder lost less than ten per cent of
all the hogs that were produced
An important factor IN reducing the
loss, says DR.. Biting, is to provide
proper shelter, as all hogs with only
mild attack, or having apparently
made a recovery, may take a relapse
if exposed to cold rain or sudden
change to rough weather. Any shed
which will keep off the rain and break
the wind is sufficient The floor should
be dry, but little bedding is needed
and that renewed frequently. Burn all
litter and bedding once a week. Keep
the herd divided so that crowding is
impossible. Remember a straw stack
is the most unfavorable place that can
be provided for sick hogs. He says the
essentials in prevention are good food,
pure water and clean, dry quarters.
The cost of protecting the hogs from
inclement weather need not be great.
Don't neglect the matter.-Journal OF
Agriculture.

Lincoln's Specific Life Work.

One often thinks of his life as cut
seen his life work ended as did Lin
coin. Napoleon died upon a desert
rock, but not until Austerlitz and Wag-
ram had become memories, and the
dust of the empire even as all dust,
Cromwell knew that England had not
at heart materially altered. Wash
ington did not know that he had erect
ed one of the great perhaps the great
est, empires to be known to man. But
Lincoln had a specific task to do-to
save his country and to make it free
and on that fateful 14th of April he
knew that he had accomplished both
things.
There n those who would say that
chance put this man where he was to
do this work To the thoughtful mind
il was not chance, however. but re
sign, and that the design of which all
crucible of the nations. 1t is the stu
dent of century hence who shall prop
erly place the civil war in American
history. But, whatever that place be,
there can be no doubt of the position
in it of the war president, Like Will
liam the Silent, his domination of all
about him was matter not OF personal
desire, but of absolute and constant
growth. There are few more interest
ing characters in history than Lincoln.
There is none who in quite the same
manner fits himself so absolutely into
his circumstances. 1t is the highest
form of genius that so produces as 10
make production seem effortless, and
it is perhaps the greatest Of all tributes
to Lincoln that what he did seems
sometimes only what the average man
would have done in his place.
