WHAT IT MEANS TO NEB.
Slump in the Price Of Hogs Will
Cost the State Several
Millions. ..E
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal. g=S:s
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 10.-Four and a
half million dollars, says the state
agricultural statistician, is the loss
sustained by the farmers of Nebraska
by the slump in the price Of hogs. 8
Local prices under the influence of
the Chicago market have gone down
a dollar a hundred since Monday on
light weight porkers. The number Of
hogs in the state as returned by the
county estimators is one and half
million, the average weight being 800.
This means that millions have been
wiped out.
The past three years hogs have sold
as high as So a hundred, which fact
caused a tremendous rush to the hog
industry. The shipping season was
hardly begun from this state, which
furnishes a large part of Chicago CON
sumers, and the threat OF $3.50 hogs
in the future will cause CONSERVATION
among raiserS. - ..,...,.-.s, -s-7 +.

The Strength of the Nation.

Thomas Jefferson called this gov
eminent "the strongest on earth be-
cause every rational citizen, at the
call Of the law, would meet invasions
of the public order as his private con-
Germ" It is often stated as a fact that
the best men in the country fight clear
Of politics. It may be true that highly
Intelligent men fret at the details OF
case of real need. If we go on de-
veloping strong, well-balanced men
the kind that use golden grain belt
beer as a, home tonic we shall have
no fear. This brew is more than a
table delicacy, it's a helpful food fol-
mind and body that no one can afford
to overlook.

SURGICAL Operation on a Cobra

A remarkable feat of snake surgery took
place recently in the New York Geological
Park under Curator Ditmars. Magma, a
splendid 10-foot king cobra had developed
an abscess next to one of her poison
fangs. and unless this were removed she
would die. To capture the dangerous rep
tile, to force her jaws apart, and to cut
the abscess, was the problem.
The curator had plan and he called
for an extra fat snake pill When the
stuffed snake appeared it was distended
to the bursting point. In more than a
month the cobra had not touched food.
Mr.. Ditmars summoned five keepers,
armed himself with surgeons pincers,
and proceeded to the attack. Through a
circular aperture, protected with a slide,
the snake pill was threaded. The hungry
snake took hold of it at once. Frequently
she stopped, in evident pain, but each time
she resumed until the long, black thing
was halfway down her throat
This was the moment to act. The door
was thrown open and before the cobra
could disgorge herself to fight, she was
seized by the head and throat. while other
hands g-asped her body and tail. Then
the mouth was forced wide apart, while
the pincers did their work, and the finest
specimen of cobra in captivity was thus
saved to the observation-disclosures
