Overalls-Get pattern one size

tern off just above the knee, and if de-
sired raise the material under the
arm, also over the back and chest.
This is not always necessary; it de-

Cape-Circular cape; length, a lit
tie shorter than length inside of the
elbow, to give perfect freedom.
Sleeves-Plain, not full, cut by any
ordinary sleeve pattern.
Place the cape and the sleeves on
the child and where the sleeves nat
urally join the cape, pin over the
shoulder and haste. The underpart
of the sleeve is left free, and is bound
with narrow bias fold of material or
tape. Stitch the military strap on top
of the shoulder of the cape to pre-
vent the stitching showing. This adds
strength and gives trim effect.
When the costume is complete, dip
in melted parafi1n (Which has been
removed from the stove) in a kettle
large enough to allow the goods to be
we'll immersed. Leave In the hot So
luton for ten or fifteen minutes, allow

the hem and allow to drip. When dry,
the garment will be stiff. Rub between
the hands to reduce stiffness and re-
move any unnecessary paraffin, which
is apt to be too thick in heavy places.
The garment may be redipped at any
time and the same paraffin may be
used again. Generally two clippings
annually give perfect satisfaction.

1t is very necessary that we recog-
nize hog cholera and swine plague in
the very early stages in order to pre-
/ vent them from spreading In some
outbreaks the symptoms are not
typical and we cannot diagnose the
disease by the symptoms alone. In
such cases we should destroy a sick
hog and make a careful post-mortem
examination.
If the disease proves to be hog
cholera or swine plague, and 1t is
practical under the conditions. the
herd should be divided into small
punches. The sick animals should be
separated from the well ones and all
possible precautions taken against
the spread Of the disease.
Do not move the hogs to different
parts OF. the farm, nor scatter the dis
ease over the farm. If the yards and
hog houses are in such a condition
that they cannot be properly cleaned
and dislnfected we should move the
herd to some convenient place and
build temporary quarters.
When the weather is warm the only
protection needed is shade. In cold
weather 1t is necessary to provide
quarters warm enough to prevent the
hogs from piling up and catching cold.
Portable hog houses are very useful
for this purpose.
The yards, feeding floors, troughs
and hog houses must be kept clean.
