We never carry fabric over from season
to season. But this is the second time in our
history that we've cut every suiting in the
house to one price-and to such a price
$1,000. We make the reduction greater this
year in order to make the clearance quicker.
The Washington times., 1911-06-26

We guarantee to maintain the standard,
and there is none better, throughout the build
ing of all garments. Workmanship, lining,
and finish must be put in every garment just
as though regular prices were charged, instead
of $1,000.

HOG CHOLERA===NO. &.
BY Dr.. M. n. Reynolds, Mime
sofa University Farm.

Vaccination-It seems to the writer
that you progressive farmers ought to
be greatly interested in this question
Of vaccinating hogs against cholera.
You may perhaps be interested in a
general statement of the theory and
plan upon which this vaccine is pro-
duced l-.
Preparing Vaccine-As every farm
er well knows, certain hogs are nat
.urally immune; i. e., resistant to hog
cholera Infection. When such hogs
pass through an outbreak, receiving
infection from which they recover,
they become, as rule, permanently
and for all practical purposes abso-
sure-immune hogs may occasionally he
made, under certain abnormal condi-
tons, to take cholera.
1t has been proved that when such
ic:ln,n lie hogs are treated with large
doses of virulent blood from sick
~ OOCS uVI Mil luCI, o1IAOuSh
very small doses of the same blood
may kill susceptible hogs in i few
days. The immune hogs. treated by
large doses of this virus. develop in
tEeir own blood something which has
the power of protecting ordinary sus-
ceptible hogs from infection. The
immune hog, after receiving the large
doses of virulent (disease-producing)
blood, becomes what we call a hyper
immune, i. e., q very highly immun-
lied hog, and will hereafter be re-
ferred to as the hyper" or the "hy-
perimmune" The ordinary immune
hog may be converted into hyper
immune by either one of the several
different methods. He may be treated
either by incubation under the skin
with very large doses of blood from
sick hogs, or by inoculation with
much smaller doses directly into a
vein. or by injection of the virus d.
rectly into the abdominal cavity. We
now prefer the vein injection method,
because it requires only about one
half as much virus blood, and is quick
err and perhaps more certain of pro-
ducing fully potent serum.
When blood from such specially
treated immune hogs, i. e., from the
hyperimmune, is injected into the
bodies of susceptible hogs. they in
turn become immune for a time.
During this short period of immunity
we can expose such vaccinated hogs
to cholera in the pen, or give them
injections under the skin of very
small doses of virulent blood. In either
case, we have given susceptible hogs,
first, treatment which enables them
to resist the disease; and. second, we
have given them the disease, from
which they recover and become per.
manently immune

Matching, Brooding
and Colony Coop.
BY c. II. WEIGH, Extension Di-
vision, Minnesota University
Farm,

+
+ !. = !. J. !: X !. = :: !. ). J. ;. J.
Inasmuch as large proportion of
the chicks raised on Minnesota farms.
are Matched and reared by hens, the
farmer who intends to do anything in
the poultry line should provide such
equipment in the way of coops as will
make the work most convenient and
successful. The coop shown in the il
lustration serves the purpose excel
lently, not only for Matching purposes,
but for brooding and use as a colony
coop.
One of the most important things
to be considered in making such a coop
is the matter of cleanliness and san
itation. In order that all parts may
be easily accessible for cleaning, the
floor is not attached to the upper part,
and the entire upper works" may be
tipped over for cleaning. Before u.s.
ing the coop in the spring, and at in
tervals during use, it should be
thoroughly disinfected with 3
per cent solution of creolin; and, by
the way, if an incubator is disinfected
in the same way before starting 4
hatch, the mortality among young
chicks will be greatly decreased.
Part of the rear of the coop is
hinged, so that broody hens can be put
on or removed from the nest and the
nests cleaned or other such work at
tended to. Three small doors are
placed in the front of the coop, and
the upper half of the front is made of
a hinged frame covered with muslin
During cold nights or bad weather,
the foOt-board seen in front is turned
up to close the lower part, and the
muslin frame dropped down or partly
so, to close the upper part All neces-
sary ventilation is obtained through
the muslin or the slight opening left
around the edge of the frame. Open
ings are covered with wire netting,
to keep out marauders.
The Use Of the Coop-For Matching
purposes, two light partitions are put
across the coop. dividing it in three.
Next boxes are placed at the rear of
each division, loose loan is filled in
the bottom of the box, covered with
straw, and everything is ready for
starting work. Each broody hen is
furnished with small covered yard
in front of her "room,'' in which she
may take exercise, dust herself, and
get some green grass. When the
chicks come off, very often one hen
may be removed and her brood di-
vided between the two remaining 1t
may happen sometime. in case of a
poor hatch, that one hen can take care
Of the entire lot Of chicks. The hen
and chicks are kept to their part of
the coop and yard until the chicks are
old enough to be given a larger run.
when they may be given an opening
through the fence. When the chicks
are old enough, the hens are removed
and the chicks given the coop for a
colony coop; and little later on the
pullets should be removed to othe,
quarters, where they may be brought
on rapidly enough to be ready 70,
laying in the early winter. The cock
erels are kept in the coop and pushed
for market as rapidly as possible.

Joint Ownership Of Expensive Mactin.
cry Advisable.
So long as the results remain un.
determined, which will follow the
growth of intelligent cooperation
among small farmers in the ownership
of the costly machinery, and in the
use of wholesale methods, now sup.
posedly available only on very large
farms, no one is entitled to claim
economic superiority for the large
farm, as does Professor L. H. Bailey,
in deliverance which has recently at
tracted so much attention. The large
farm, devoted to a single crop, has al.
ready proved not as profitable as
number of small ones, collectively oc.
cupying a like area, devoted to di.
versitied farming. In the few cases
where large capital, coupled with su.
perior technical skill and business
ability, has made diversified farming
on bonanza" scale more profitable
than on small scale, it may we'll be
believed that new and improved meth
DDS on the big farm have been brought
into comparison with old methods on
the small one. Cooperation between
the owners of twenty eighty-a acre
farms, in competition with the owner
of a 1600-acre farm, might cause the
telling of different story, giving sup
port to the small-farm idea on econom.
ic as we'll as on social and political
grounds.-C. r. Barns,

be an innovation to the followers Of the
billiard game in this city. and, last if
not least. the President had expressed
a desire. after Hopes exhibition at the
White House Saturday night, of seeing
the present champion in a game where
something was at stake and he would
have to extend himself to the limit to
win. The President was not the only
one who showed an eagerness to see
the champion in action. as the Cabinet
officers seem to have been inoculated with
the billiard fever. as well. The President
expressed regret at being unable to at
tend Hopes exhibition at the Royal
Alleys ten days ago. but stated that in
the event OF his ever returning to the city
for another engagement he would be one
of those at the ''ringside.'
Mr.. Mank before leaving the city. said
that he had practically closed a deal for
one Of Washington's largest auditoriums.
in which to hold the match. and had
decided on the 18th. 18th. and 18th Of
February as the dates for holding it.
That the billiard game is growing in
the number of devotees, is only too
strongly brought out by a visit to any
of the local parlors. and in view of the
fact that the match would be for the
worlds title. it is needless to say that
standing room would be at a premium.
Should the coming championship prove
successful from an attendance point of
view. other matches between the various
billiard wizards will follow.

leagues. have been authorized to re-elect

thority over the game in the United

usual. will be entertained by Mr.. Herr

it is probable that some business will be
transacted. The schedule committees are
ready to work in harmony. The Ameri-

tarp Heydler. As these officials have no
