DOE HILL BURGLARY
Jones s. Shoulders Store Entered
Saturday Night.
A BOLD. BUT BUNCLIKG EFFORT.
SOME CASH TAKEN, BUT Bulk OF
MONEY observation-disclosures
FICE ALSO ENTERED.

Doe Hill, Va, June 22.--Our
usually quiet village was all excite
ment yesterday morning when the
discovery was made that the store
of Jones & Shoulder had been en-
tered some time during the night
by burglars.
They first broke the lock on
Cameron Hoover's blacksmith shop
and took sledge hammer, a small
er hammer, some punches, and a
chisel.
They undoubtedly had a key
that fitted the lock to the store, as
there was no evidence of their hav-
ing entered otherwise. They took
between seven and eight dollars
| from the cash drawer, a smaller
amount of change from the post
Office, overlooking $40 in the p. o.
desk. They also took some tobac-
co, cigars, and macaroni. 1t was
found that they had lighted a lamp
and put it underneath a writing shelf
or table, in the Office, pulled down
the blind and tried togain entrance
to the iron safe, breaking the COM
bination, entirely off. They must
have been frightened away by some
noise, as indicated by their having
left the tools they were using lay
| ing in the office, and their tearing
loose the money drawer and carry
ing it away with them. The safe
contains valuable papers, money,
etc., also supplies for the postoffice,
which cannot be gotten out, with
out an expert. This is a great an
noyance to the firm, besides the
expense of necessary repairs. The
money drawer has not yet been
found and there is no evidence as
to the guilty parties.

Man, AMANDA AsbeaASr,

fhs death OF Mfsi hAanoa ~
Arbogast, which occurred at her
home, Buena Vista, on Sunday
night, was not surprise to those
who had heard of her critical con-
dition for several days previous
thereto, but the announcement was
received with much regret by her
old friends at Monterey.
Mrs. Arbogast was a daughter OF
the late B. A. Hansel, Esq, OF
Crabbottom, and widow of the late
John w. Arbogast, the well-remem-
bered sheriff of Highland. She
was native of this county and re-
NAMED here until some three years
ago, when, with two of her daugh-
tiers, she located at Buena Vista.
She was u years of age and the
mother of eight children, all but
one of whom are left to mourn her
loss. They are Misses Ella I. and
Sallie B., of Buena Vista, Lucy r.,
of Berryville, Messrs. E. M. and A.
W., of Marlinton, C. c., of Keyser,
w. Va, and j. Ed, of this place.
During her long residence in and
about Monterey, Mrs. Arbogast
made many warm friends. She
was a kind neighbor and an affec-
tionate mother. She was of frail
constitution, and had been in fail
ing health for several years.
Mrs. Arbogast had been con-
sistent member of the Presbyterian
church for long time, and died in
the triumphs of faith.
Her remains were brought to
Monterey for interment, coming
via Barlow, and were accompanied
by all her sorrowing children. The
funeral party reached Hotel Mon
terey late Wednesday evening, and
the funeral took place from the
Presbyterian church at 10 O'Clock
Thursday morning, a short service
being conducted by Rev. W. 5.
Trimble.
The floral tribute was the most
profuse and beautiful ever seen at
a funeral here. Some of the de-
signs were especially lovely, and
bespoke the high esteem in which
the deceased was held.
The pall-bearers were: active-W'

INocULATING FOR ALFALFA.

Those in the alfalfa sections of the
country have found by experiments
with both methods that better results
are obtained in getting a start with
alfalfa by inoculating the field to be
sown with soil from an old and well
established field than by the use of the
widely advertised and not always re-
liable nitro- uItures. Since the land for
alfalfa should be we'll enriched with
manure before sowing the seed the best
plan for inoculating the land seems to
be to scatter several shovelfuls of the
inoculated soil through the manure as
it is put Oh the spreader, whence it is
thoroughly scattered over the ground
as the manure is spread. The field
should be thoroughly disked and har-
rowed and put in the best of tilth after
the fertilizer and inoculated soil is ap-
Piled. Where there is not an estab-
lished field Of alfalfa in the neighbor-
hood from which the soil referred to
can be secured that taken from spots
where the wild sweet clover grows will
answer the same purpose, as the same
type of bacteria work in the root sys-
TENS of each plant.

HOGS AND TUBERCULOSIS.

The likelihood of infection with tu-
berculosis in the case OF hogs following
cattle known to be infected with the
disease has been very effectively DEM
onstrated in recent experiments which
have been conducted at the Iowa ex-
pertinent station. A bunch of twenty
six hogs were placed in a feed lot to
follow cattle which were known to be
infected with tuberculosis and like
number put after cattle which were
not affected with the disease. At the
close of a given period all the hogs in
both lots were killed. In the first
bunch twenty-one were found badly
infected with tuberculosis, while in
the second case, where they followed
healthy cattle, not one showed any
signs Of the disease. With from 20 to
so per cent Of the dairy COWS of the
country having tuberculosis and with
hogs following the great majority of
these diseased animals, the alarming
spread Of tuberculosis among the
swine of the country is not difficult to
trace.
The Democratic advocate., 1908-06-19
TREATMENT FOR HOG CHOLERA

A conference that bids fair to be of
more than ordinary value to the hog
raisers of the country was held at the
Iowa Agricultural college the latter
part Of May. The department at Wash
ington was represented by Secretary
James Wilson and two eminent ami
NAL disease specialists from the ami
NAL husbandry department The con-
ference took place on farm which
has been used as hog cholera expert
ment station for several years. AS the
result of years Of experimental work
the department has developed a meth
cd of treating hog cholera which is
effective in saving large per cent
of hogs in affected herds The method
Of treatment consists In inoculating
hogs with serum taken from animals
which have died from the disease, much
in the same way that human beings
are rendered immune to smallpox by
vaccination The work of the federal
department has been confirmed in ex-
periments conducted by the Minnesota
and Missouri stations. As instances
of the effectiveness Of this serum treat
ment 1t Is stated that in a number Of
herds which were treated and after
ward exposed to cholera contagion
The Democratic advocate., 1908-06-19

only 7 per cent OF the treated animals
died, while the loss among the un-
treated herds was GA per cent. In
herds which had been exposed to the
disease, but were not sick at the time
of treatment, AZ per cent of the treat
ed and 80 per cent Of the untreated
animals died. In other herds In which
the disease had already broken out be-
fore treatment began the loss among
treated hogs was 1872 per cent and
among untreated hogs "a per cent. The
chief point which was considered by
this conference on hog cholera was the
most feasible plan for supplying the
serum used in the treatment to the hog
raisers of the country, Secretary Will
sons idea being that this can be most
effectively done by the several state
experiment stations. Representatives
from different states were present at
the conference and were given oppor-
tunity to witness in actual operation
the method of producing the serum
and applying the treatment. If the
conference shall be as productive OF
results as is hoped long step will
have been taken toward relieving the
farmers from a source of loss that at
times has been enormous.

TUBERCULOSIS BAcILLI.

Circular No. 127, issued by the de-
partment of animal husbandry at
Washington, contains an interesting
summary of a series Of experiments
which have been carried on with a
view to ascertaining how long tuber-
culosis germs will keep their vitality
in dairy butter made and kept under
average conditions. The butter used
in the test was made from the milk
of a tuberculosis infected animal, diff
ferent portions of the product being
kept for different lengths of time and
then used as a means for inoculating
fifty guinea pigs. All Of these died
within a given period of time, the test
showing that some of the animals died
from inoculation with butter that had
been kept under ordinary conditions
four and a half months, which proved
conclusively that the tuberculosis bac-
ILL kept their vitality during that
length of time. This experiment as it
becomes known will simply add to the
diligence which city boards of health
are already exercising in the matter OF
examining carefully into the sources or
supply of milk, cream and butter fur
nished their constituents.
