The just Judge.

Des Moines Capital: A Judge at
Washington. D. C, has decided that
piano PLAYING and singing after mid
night is disorderly conduct, the same
as cursing and fighting. The Judge
said no man or woman has the right
TO play the plano or sing after his
neighbor Is asleep or IN bed trying to
sleep
Millions OF men win rise up and call
this Washington Judge blessed. There
are many people who have had the
notion that man can be kept awake
at night By a musical instrument
when It would be unlawful to keep
him awake by any other means Of
torture. Now, IL some Judge will de-
termine that 10 dog can bark after
midnight another move would be
made toward justice and sanity. But
the dog appears 10 be ADORE al law.
He can run without a nuzzle in the
hottest weather, endangering the lives
OF children and no voice dare be
raised against him. He can howl all
night and If man mentions 1t to his
neighbor he is recorded as a beast.
The dog is above constitutions, stat
utes and ordinances. In some cases
the dog is given love that passeth
all understanding.

How Los Angeles is Served BY soo
Miles Of Electric
Lines.

Burlington Saturday Evening Post:
The big man OF Los Angeles is Henry
E. Huntington, the nephew of the late
Coils p. Huntigton, builder OF the
Southern Pacific railway and one OF
the pioneer builders of the Pacific
coast. The nephew was brought up iD
the Huntington school and is keen
Drained man Of IS with determination
to build and create something worth
having. He has constructed within
the six years 500 miles Of interurban
in and out of Los Angeles. 1t is one
OF the most complete systems in the
world and The passenger traffic Is en1r-
nous. over 200 towns are served By
the lines. Covering territory of 40
miles distance there is not man or
child who cannot make quick trip
into the heart of Los Angeles.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1909-07-20
Has Acded $50. 600 People.

1t is the honest opinion OF many OF
the leading men that the interurban
system had added 10000 persons to
the population Los Angeles, before
Mr.. Huntington began his work, was a
struggling town of 10000. After hay
ing disposed Of a good share OF his
stock and bonds in eastern properties
Mr.. Huntington concluded to make Los
Angeles his home. He brought his
money there, borrowing a great deal
more and began constructing the sys-
tenn. Los Angeles was receiving Just
as many tourists in those days as 1t is
today. There was no more reason for
the city to double its population in six
years than there is for Burlington. 1t
had a steady trade the tourist popula-
ton had been worked up as the result
of 20 years Of missionary efforts. and
the suburbs-10o In numher-th through
out the valley were a disconnected
mass separate in their identities and
each one trying to form good trad
ing point
Along came Mr.. Huntington and
hitched up all OF these villages By
means of his electric cars and rails.
Instead OF 10000 persons being avail
able TO the stores in the downtown
district Mr.. Huntington made it pos
sihle for 100000 to trade on the
principal streets OF the city.
The enormous incrsa in the retail
business led TO broadening Of the
downtown district and the deye,ou-
nient Of new 50 that Los Angeles was
claiming 100000 persons within its
city limits-all as a result Of the con-
meeting up Of the 100 towns in the
valley and bringing the trade Of each
village to central point.
i was very simple problem and

Value i inesieuIabIe.

The value OF the discovery to farm
eTs and ssockmen is ERcalcnlabIe. It
means literally millions of dollars In
their pockets. and it opens to the
consumer the alIuring possibility of a
considerable rsduc tion in the price OF
the most popular OF all animal foods
It means. also. q great change In tie
stock yards business. II is not gem
orally known znat nov when hog IS
once skipped 10 a stock yards II never
leaves it except 10 go to the packing
house for its death This is due 10
the prevalence OF hcg cholera and the
liability OF hogs shipped to the yards
TO contract it through contagion.
With all hogs immune. to cholera they
may be handled as a stock PROPOSE
ton. In other words. feeders may buy
hogs at the yards, ship them to the
feed lots and fatten them and then
ship them back to market at profit
The value OF this lies Ia the fact that
at some seasons IN some sections feed
becomes scarce and the hogs lose
flesh instead OF gaining. and the
grower Is forced to market them. The
result is that the market becomes
oversupplied and prices demoralized-
Were feeders able to buy hogs al
such times and ship them out it would
steady the market 1t means great
gain 10 the big live stock markets
like Chicago, Kansas City. st. Joseph,
Sioux City. OMAHA. St Louis and the
Texas markets.

Tries Serum on 5000 Hogs.

Missouri alone in 1903 lost nearly
S., GOO 900 worth of hogs through the
rayages Of cholera, and other states
lost heavily With the elimination Of
this economic waste as his incentive.
DR.. Conneway went to work to dis
cover a serum which would render
hogs immune to cholera. Last spring,
after he had tried the serum on more
than 5000 hogs. with death rate
reduced from e5 to per cent. he an
nounced his discovery. The tremend.
