y very great mistake, thoroughly mslead-
ing in It's character, appeared in the Salisbury
items of last weeks issue with reference to
the disease and death of hogs in town. 1t is
true that during the fall and winter there
have been a very few deaths among the
swine, but certainly not a large number as
reported, and it is no ways certain by the
character OF each that they had had the same
disease. 1t certainly in no way resembles the
foot and mouth disease as represented by your
correspondent and as described by cases in
Chester. In one case of \. A. Smeads who
sent the lungs and intestines to the state
experiment station. Veterinary +. A. Rich
pronounced 1t the ''swine plague" which is
and has been for some time somewhat preva-
lent in portions of the state. That "hardly a
farmer in town has not one or more animals
which have the disease and large number
of animals not infected have been killed to
prevent the spread of the disease" is grossly
misleading and far from the truth, in fact |
know of no farmer in town who has to his
knowledge diseased hog, neither is ii known
that any hogs sick or well have been killed to
prevent the spread of any disease.
Correspondents cannot be to careful in the
spread of news and should not report until
the exact truth is obtained. c. A. BUMP.

1t is no new idea. There are statues OF
White Bronze in Europe which have been
standing for Hundreds of Years, and are as
good rs ever. 1t remained for Yankee inge
nuity, however, to adapt the material to
general monumental uses which was done
about thirty years ago. Since then, thousands
upon thousands of "White Bronze" monu
ments have been erected, and the work is
becoming more and more popular every year.
The material cannot rust or corrode. There
is nothing to support vegetable life and moss
growth is an absolute impOSsibHHy 1t Is hard
and dense ana will not chip or crack. Water
cannot penetrate il. and atmospheric
changes, heat and cold, have no effect upon
it. Its color Is beautiful, closely resembling

TO the public as the very best material obtain
able for monumental work, all things con
sidered. Inscriptions are always in bold,
raised letters, the only kind suitable for any
monument, always clear cut and legble AT II
