Think of a man making butter that
costs him IL to IA cents per pound and
swapping it at s and 10 cents per
pound for groceries at the country
store. Think of him selling cream to
the creamery. and never stopping to
think, study or read an hour in a
month as to the kind of COWS he ought
to have for the business, or the proper
way to care for them in order to get
the most cream. Think of a man
blindly plunging along in these old
ruts of farm practice for years, never
caring to read what other men are
doing who are successful and making
money in the dairy business. Think of
a man doing all these things, as thous-
ands are doing, and not caring enough
for his own profit to invest 100 cents a
year in a dairy paper that is wide
awake to his best interests all the
time, and worth every week ten times
its cost.-H. c. Carpenter, before Min
nesota Dairy Association.
A Hog Cholera Outbreak recent
outbreak of hog cholera near the Twin
Cities, when there were no diseased
herds known to be within a hundred
miles or more, may prove a valuable
lesson if properly understood and util-
lied. The outbreak referred to was in
a herd that was in fine condition; il
was housed, fed and cared for in every
way in a flrst-class manner, and the
health of the animals was excellent. In
a manner that we have not space to de-
tail it was learned that the disease
was communicated to the herd by 8
man who came to the place from a dis.
tant infected district, who had been
among diseased hogs, and without
change Of clothes or other precautions
went among this healthy herd and lef,
the germs of disease there that will
probably destroy it. There is no ques.
ton about real hog cholera being in.
fictitious, and that it may be easily anG
unsusnectingly transmitted, as in this
case. The moral of this is: Allow nc
stranger to visit the pens OF healthy
hogs; or still better, do not let hin
come on the place unless he can give
ample assurance that he could not b!
any possibility have been in contaci
with cholera hogs. Hogs must be pro
tected from this contagion as the mem,

NAVAL MILITIA.

Department.

Officers to De Detailed From the Navy
Department.
Secretary Long is preparing an order for
the detail of naval officers for duty with
naval militia org mutations, and 1t will be
issued In a short time. The duties of the
officers thus detailed will be to assist tine
organizations in perfecting their members
in the work and duties which would be
expected of them in case of war. Many of
the state reserve battalions are now Off
cered by men graduated from Annapolis,
who are both competent and energetic in
advancing the efficiency of the organiza-
tons. but it is believed that regular in
spection system and instruction in certain
branches by officers connected with the
navy will materially add to the interest of
the men.
The naval officer in charge of the branch
photographic work at Baltimore will be
in charge of the instruction work Of the
Maryland militia, and an officer from the
Norfolk navy yard will have the North
Carolina men Of the Wilmington battalion.
The duties expected of these officers will
be in addition to those they viii perform as
either regularly attached to ravy yards or
the light house service. Much good is ex-
pected to be gained by the militia from
the competent instruction they will obtain
from these men.

DIR. WALSH COMpLINENTEn
HIS Associates Present a Testimonial
of Their Good VIII.

"A pleasant scene was enacted in the
health department this morning, which was
witnessed by every one connected with the
some silver tea service to Dr. John E.
Walsh by the clerks associated with him
in the health Office. Dr. Walsh recently
Joined the ranks of the benedicts, and re-
turned this morning from his honeymoon.
Just before the inspectors left and while
all the clerks were on hand the presenta-
ton took place.
Deputy Health Officer Harry Mclean
made the presentation speech, and did it in
lis own clever style. He said the uncere-
ronious gathering of the Office force was
for the purpose of extending sincere con-
CALCULATIONS and to felicitate themselves on
the acquisition of such an excellent MEM
Der to the ranks Of The benedicts. Since
DR.. Walsh had been among them, he had
proven himself a loyal friend and faith
full officer, and his associates had no doubt
he would make faithful and devoted a
husband. In behalf of his friends and asso-
crates in the Office Mr. Mclean then pre-
st nted him with the silver service, coupled
with the hope that in the years to come
when they should be separated, 1t would
recall to DIR. Walsh some pleasant memory
of his associates in the health Office
Dr. Walsh was taken completely by sur
prise. and when the silver service was
said, however. that the gift touched his
heart. He had had reason all along to be-
lieve that his associates entertained kindly
feeling for him. and sincerely hoped for a
long association with such warm friends
and kindly officials.

BANKER WEATHERs RETURNS.
Will Work for Nothing for "a Year to
Pay All Claims.

John H. Weathers, president of the failed
banks at Leavenworth, Marengo and Eng
lish. Ind, who has been in hiding in Louis
ville KY, and New Albany. Ind, waiting
for the excitement caused by the bank fail
ures to die cut, returned to Corydon, Ind
yesterday and made statement anent the
failures to the committees of deposit o-s
who held meeting at Corydon to devise
means for a settlement.
DR.. E. ]. Fetzer. friend of Mr.. Wealth
erS and a member of the committees of
depositors, telegraphed to the Louisville
Commercial from Corydon the statement of
Mr.. Weathers, which is to this eject:
That while at Corydon recently attending
his law practice he received a telephone
message from Leavenworth to come there
with the bank. He Immediately left Cory
don and went to Leavenworth, where he
and Nolan Barnett, the cashier of the Leav-
enworth bank, examined the institution
books and found that the funds of the same
were at low ebb. 1t was decided by them
to close the three banks at once. President
Weathers was advised by friends to leave
the town until the sensation abated which
he did. He, however, thought he might yet
bridge over matters. and took some collat-
eral with him. but after elaboration he de-
cided it would be better to return the same
and have an assignee appointed. He there
upon made a general assignment, with r.
c. Arnold of LeavenwOrth assignee.
Mr.. Weathers said further that all he
wanted was reasonable support for his
wife and child while the settlement was in
progress. and that Le would spend one year
without compensation to facilitate matters
to the end that dollar for dollar be paid.
Mr.. Weathers stands very high in his
own and adjoining counties and has large
law practice.
Not a single man of the different commit
tees had word of censure for Mr.. Wealth
ers after he made his statement to them.
Mr.. Weathers stated to the committees
that his wife would make an assignment of
all his present property, which Is consider
able. and that his splendid home at English
would be included. The committees accept
ed the president statement as true and
elected Mr.. Arnold as hts assignee without
dissenting vote.
