The hog is more infected with intestinal worms
than any other domestic animal. These worms
created by impure accumulatfons along the in
festival tract and generally produced by poorly d.
gested food
The nature Of the hog and his manner Of eating
renders him more susceptible OF intestinal worms
than any other animal. Under the present domes-
icated conditions he is allowed the Of his
natural instincts to obtain the necessary elements
that would destroy these intestinal parasites. Be-
Ing shut up pen he is not allowed to follow the
dictates Of nature. The hog that is wormy
neither grow thrive for the that the
worms destroy all the nutrition furnished in the
food. Liquid Koal put in the drinking water in
the proportion Of quart to the barrel and given
them twice week will destroy all intestinal
worms and keep them free from their formation
and multiplication. 1t strengthens the appetite
and tones up the system.

Butt Fights Carefully

Britt said he would fight a careful
fight, and he kept his word. It was a
safe plan and wise one, no doubt.
and II has landed him shoulder TO shoul-
der with Joe Cans in the race for the
worlds championship. Had he cared 10
take more chances he probably would
have scored knockout
When the bell sent them together last
night for the final round, nothing but a
knockout by Nelson could reverse the
decision. Jimmy felt this, no doubt. and
so did the men in his corner, and many
warnings were shouted after him TO
take things easys and the contest was
won. Britt WAS all cooineSs and conf
dence. while the Dane was making des-
perate attempts 10 turn defeat into
victory. One clinch succeeded another.
and try as he might, Nelson could not
indulge IN the free-arm work he loves
so well.
The Washington times., 1907-08-01
Even NOlan Admits Defeat. :

AS already stated. it was the best
fight Britt ever fought, and there can be
no two opinions in regard to the merits
OF the decision.
Britt was trained to the minute. and
carried out the plan OF battle he had
formulated before going into the ring.
Billy Nolan said, when it was all over,
thGt his man had been beaten fairly
and Nelson said:
He won from me in the last round. -

had won in nearly every round Ii Is
