Secretary Wilson, in his report of
the department of agriculture for 1906,
refers to the experiments: The in
creasing frequency of tuberculosis in
hogs, as observed in the meat inspec-
tion service in recent years, led to
experiments to determine the most
probable source of infection of those
animals, and the conclusion was
reached that the most frequent causes
of tuberculosis in hogs are found in
the common practice of allowing these
animals to follow cattle in the feed
lot and feeding them on skinned milk
or separator refuse. This emphasizes
anew the Importance of every farmer
keeping his herd free from tuberculo-
sis. Successful results have attended
experiments with view to producing
a vaccine which will prevent or cure
hog cholera The method has been
patented in such manner as to in
sure to all the people in the United
States to use it free from royalty.

Fnemen's Inspection and Ball.

Last Fridays annual inspection of the
village fire department was rather a tame
affair as compared with many similar
occasions in the earlier years, but much
interest centered in the hose races. The
morning was rainy and promised to con-
tinue throughout the day and entirely
cancel the parade, but ii cleared about
noon and the entire department was in
line soon after 2 o'clock, headed by
Wheeler's band. None of the apparatus
was decorated, but every piece was
bright and clean, as were the uni
forms of the men, and the showing made
was excellent for actual efficiency.
After the parade the hose races occur
red on Green street and n large crowd
watched them with interest as this year
was to decide the permanent ownership
of the silver cup which had been won
in 1908 and 1905 by the Internationals

TO CURE INDIGESTION.

The first thing to do in a case OF in
digestion or stomach weakness is to
strengthen the muscular walls of the
stomach and intestines, so that they will
digest without distress the food that is
eaten. This can best be done by taking
a Mi-o-na tablet before each meal. which
will restore strength to the stomach mus
cles and stimulate the secretion OF gastric
juices so that the food will digest readily
and its nourishment be retained in the
stomach to build up energy and vitality.
Use Mi-o-na and you win have no more

Six Cents Quart viii Probably be Price
Of MIX With Most Local Dealers.

OF MILK with Most Local Dealers.
The question of the milk supply and
prices, which is agitating most localities
in New England at the present time and
causing in many places a material ad-
vance in the selling price to the con-
sumers, does not as yet seriously affect
Bellows Falls. For number of years
past the price of milk sold on our streets
has been five cents for the five months
from May to September inclusive and
six cents for the other seven months,
with the one exception of dealer Dennis
brisbane. We have 10 or II regular milk
dealers distributing milk on our streets.
The price during the past summer was
five cents as usual. An effort was made
to agree upon the advance to seven cents
on Sept l instead of oct l. but It did
not go through, at least among all the
dealers. Four of them raised to six
cents Sept. l. namely. the two Wrights
of SaXtons River, Mr.. Allen of Westmins-
ter and Mr.. Young of Bellows Falls.
A. G. Rice raised Sept. Is to six cents
and the rest raised to the same price
Oct. l, except Mr.. brisbane, who pro-
duces all the milk he delivers and has
for about 80 years sold it for uniform
price of five cents summer and winter
and Mr.. Young, who raised his price on
that date to seven cents. Because of the
increased price being paid to the pro-
ducers by the Boston Dairy company Cor
shipment to the Boston market, the pres
ent price of milk bought by local dealers
Is about IL cents per can of eight quarts,
more than 1t was six months ago the
present price being 80 cents delivered to
the dealer. The present prospect is that the
price will remain with the majority of
dealers here the same as now, at six
cents, whereas in many places the retail
price has recently gone to seven and eight
cents.
