AN EDITORS APPEAL.

The following was copied from
The New Harmony Times, New
Harmony, Ind, at the request of
the editor:
If the editor of every paper in the
central west will publish these
lines there is no question but what
DR.. S. L. Byers of Seeleyville, Ind.
will recover his little son who was
stolen from his home one year ago
last May. DR.. Byers has spent his
entire resources in search of his
child and unless the big hearted
members of the press come to his
assistance his son will grow up an
outlaw and an outcast among the
lowest people of the earth 1t is a
cause that should appeal to every
one and no father reading these
lines can do so without quicken
ing of the heart and sympathetic
throb. 1t is believed that if this
article is reprinted in the newspa-
pers 1t will form an endless chein
that will uncover the lost boy S
concealment and return him to his
distracted parents. In doing this
the profession of journalism will
be fulfilling one of its highest des-
TIMES.
Publishers whose circulation
touch the Wabash. Ohio and Mis-
sissippi valleys are especially re-
quested to reproduce this story Of
the lost child as Dr.. Byers believes
his boy is now on some houseboat,
waiting to take the road in the
Spring. There is a reward of
$500 awaiting any information
that will lead to the boys recovery
No questions will be asked and if
the abductor himself would deliver
the boy to his parents he would not
be molested. The bereaved par
ents are heart broken with grief
and want only their child If each
journal will re print these lines,
they will travel to every exchange
table in the United States and
bring back to a wretched home a
child who is now no doubt suffer
ing with cold, unfed ard wretched
to degree. Think of what your
own feelings would be- under SINH
lar circumstances! This appeal is
indicted originally by a publisher
who saw DR.. Byers only once, has
no personal intetest in his quest
other than the bond of sympathy
that makes the world akin, and is
in spired from the belief that the
lost boy can only be found through
the united effort of the country
press of which he is proud to be a
member. His recovery will be a
triumph in advertising and no ed
itor whose heart is placed right
will refuse this appeal. Remem-
Der, it may be your child next!
The following is description of
the lost boy:

Paralysis In swine.

While opinions may differ as to the
cause of paralysis in swine. the fact
remains that in nearly every case
where the disease is found it has been
shown that the hog was largely corn
fed. In the sections known as the corn
belt this disease is more prevalent than
in other parts Of the country; more
evidence that corn IS at the bottom of
the trouble. Swine afflicted with this
trouble should be given a dose Of
EPSON salts. and after the bowels have
moved freely. fed for number OF days
on q slop consisting of wheat middlingS
and flaXseetl meal. using milk instead
Of water for the mixing. A liberal
quantity Of lime water should be added
TO each feed. After the animal i'm
proves the ration should be varied con
siderably. and corn form the smallest
part possible. If the afflicted animal
Is with Noung the pigs should be
weancd at once.
