SHORTAGE OF FREIGHT CARS.

HE business revival throughout the West
- and Middle West has reached the point
where shortage OF freight cars is again in sight
and the local Offices of many of the biggest roads
in the country are being urged to begin at once
the problem OF relieving the car situation.
Reports from the West indicate that in the
large centers factories are nearly all working to
the limit Of their capacity and that in many cases
factories are enlarging to meet the improved de-
mand.
This industrial activity coupled with the
movement of grain, is responsible for the threat
ened car shortage 1t is believed to be only
a question Of brief time until the entire sur
plus Of cars will be wiped out and many ship
pers are alarmed, lest the shortages by next
spring should be as serious as that OF few
years ago.
Farmers are buying more heavily than ever
before, especially of the luxures, including
pianos, automobiles and higher grades Of furni-
ture, the Western reports say.

1O-Case Buying

The cheapest way to buy Van Camps Is

When bought in this way, Van Camps costs
about six cents per quart, figured on the

9Five-Cent Cans

No s-cent can Of cvaporated milk contains
more than six ounces. That is what you get
in a scent can of Van Camps.
But the tall can of Van Camp's-pyce 10
cents-contains sixteen ounces, or full pint.
Thus you pay third more for the same
grade Of milk when you buy in Scent cans
That is useless waste. An opened can OF Van

In Van Camps we evaporate two-thifds OF

thick cream.
In Van Camps you get z8 per cent solids

About Germs

There are myrisds of germs in every drop
of raw milk.
There are germs of typhoid if the milk cans
are washed in bad water.
There arc germs of consumption If the COW
is tubercular, and one COW in ten is infected
There are germs that cause bowel trouble,
and tWo-thirds Of infant mortality is attrib-
uted to them
Van Camps is an absolutely germless milk.
Our cows are inspected, and the milk is ster-
ii1ed

6-WhoIe Milk

Miikman's milk separates. The butter fat
rises and the solids fall. You get differ
ent milk from every part of the can.
When you skim that milk, and use the
balance in milk dishes, you are cooking with
less than half milk.
In Van Camps you get the whole milk
all of the butter fat all of the solids.
1t gives to milk dishes a richness and favor
that will surprise you-you who have used
raw milk

The biggest real estate deal ever
consnm2ted in Ward county was the
sale of the 500 acre farm, owned by
C. A. Grow, two miles east OF Mlnot'
tn the T. F. Renwald Land Co. last
week, for $4,000. This is practically
$35 an acre and shows that real es-
tate in this vicinity is on the advance.
Mr.. Grow bought this sand within the
past three years and more than
doubled the money on it. This shows
that he is a far sighted land dealer.
The farm is we'll improved, and is
provided with a large house and barn.

mitted that his views had been great

within the past few weeks. He was
in London when some of the greatest
demonstrations for woman suffrage
took place. .... e,
1T is surprising that so many men
should associate themselves with
the women in the movement" said
Mr.. Blaisdell, and to his mind this
was the most significant feature OF
the present agitation for universal
suffrage in England.
He ventured the opinion that the
movement would spread to this coun-
try before many more years and In
support of his views called attention
to the fact that English women are
more domestic than our own and
with suffragette movement in de-
nestle England why not similar

ly to see that every pig is eating with
a relish. II the pigs cough it is prob
ably due to a dusty shed. Worms
will also cause a cough. and if the
hair becomes starring and dead in ap-
pearance, it is well to give a worm
powder. Lice can be gotten rid Of
by nipping. and all of the market dips
can be improved by adding crude oil
or petroleum. The pigs will be ready
for market at any age after six to
eight months.
In raising hogs to be used as breed
ers the object is very different. They
are not to go to market at six to eight
months of age, but to grow up to ma
turity- They should be pushed for
rapid growth but must be fed for
growth of frame and bone; not fat
tened on corn, but expanded by a
feed Of rich protein. At six, eight or
ten months of age. they should show
more length of body and more scale
than the market hogs, and be smooth
and well covered, but not so fat as for
market
This can be very easily done by
feeding mixed grain ration, with
ten per cent of tankage or ten per
cent of oil meal. Use corn, barley
and oats ground together. mixed thick
ly with water, and fed at once while
sweet. It is much better to mix three
pounds OF milk to one pound of grain
If one has no milk the next best feed is
ten per cent tankage If one has
the corn and does not want to buy
the mill feeds, he can use so per
cent. of corn and 30 per cent. of tank
