COST OF HOG CHOLERA.
Prof. Kennedy Submits Interesting
Figures for the Farmers of Iowa.

Hog cholera is costing Iowa farm
ers not less than 100000 this
year and perhaps several millions
more.
Director w. j. Kennedy of the ex-
tension department of the Iowa State
college gives those figures as con-
virulent disease. 1T is to be found
everywhere in the state" he says.
Il have visited all districts and /
have found that in community after
community % per cent of the hogs
have been afflicted. l think it is safe
to say that million animals will
have died in the year from this cause.
To put the lowest value on them,
they are worth $4,000, 200 and most
likely more"
To help meet this situation, the
extension department of the college
has added a skilled veterinarian to
its staff, DR.. j. ID. Cline, and he be-
gan his work in the field November
1st. He will lecture at short courses
at farmers institutes, at agricultural
club meetings and wherever else the
farmers of Iowa may want him. He
will speak on such subjects as hog
cholera and its prevention, contagi-
Gus abortion among live stock, the
protection of live stock against other
/ diseases and farm sanitation.
Iowa State college is the first in
stitution in the country to under
take the education of the rank and
file Of farmers along veterinary lines
1--WE can't reach all of Iowa very
soon with one man. says Director
Kennedy, but we hope to reach g
good many thousands this yeal
through Mr. Cline. We hope to dc
more work along this line as soon as
circumstances will permit. This
whole question of prevention of live
stock diseases is big question to
Iowa and means millions of dollars
annually. The state cannot afford
such losses as it now suffers and il
must arouse to stop them"

BIG DAM ABOUT COMPLETE.
Lake May Be Filled With Water
This Week-CrescO Line
Started

The new power dam of the Upper
Iowa Power Co. seven miles north
east of DEBORAH is about completed
The past week the little concrete
left to be placed between the piers
has been finished, and the filling of
the west bank has progressed rapid
ly. 1t is the hope of the company to
begin filling the lake the last of this
week. This may be prevented, how
ever, on account of the extreme low
stage of water, for if the upper dam
were shut off there would be no
water to run the power house at the
lower dam.
Work on the construction of the
pole line to Cresco will also start
this week The stakes for the line
have been set and it is hoped to
have everything in readiness to fur
nish light and power to our neigh
bors in every direction as soon as
the big power dynamos are all in
operation.

Concrete Expert for Ames.

Ames, Ia, Nov. 1.-The Iowa State
College is stepping into the lead
again in taking to the Iowa farm the
latest and most modern methods of
conducting agriculture in all its
phases. The extension department
of the college, through the agency
of Director j. w. Kennedy of the
extension division, has added to the
extension staff an expert in concrete
and cement construction. The con-
crete expert is brought from Chicago
to the state college.
The appointee, H. E. Gaden, comes
with many years of practical and
scientific experience with all kinds
of concrete construction. The serv-
ices of the expert will be limited TO
the months of January and Febru-
airy, but during those months Prof.
Gaden will address short courses,
farmers Institutes, and agricultural
clubs. His service may be had by
any community in the state without
cost to the community. His advice
will be along the line of concrete
mixture, siios, farm buildings and
everything to which the use of con-
crete has been put.

VICE PRESIDENT DEAD.
Nation Mourns Death of Vice Presi-
dent James 5. Sherman at
Home i'm Utica, n. Y.

James Schoolcraft Sherman, Vice
one of the most generally popular
men in the public service, died on
Thursday night at his home in Utica,
n. Y, after an illness of long dura-
ton from Bright's disease. He was
the nominee of the republican party
to succeed himself as Vice President,
and in his death the nation loses a
statesman and executive who was
popular with all classes, who welded
wide influence, and whose life was
devoted to the service of his country.
He was born in Utica, N. Y, Oct
"a, 1855, and graduated from Ham
ilton College in 1878, being admitted
to the bar in 1880 and married to
Miss Carrie Babcock in 1881. In
1884, at the age of 20, he was
elected Mayor of Utica, the youngest
in the city's history. He was elected
to the fiftieth congress in 1887, and
reelected to each succeeding con-
gress to the sixtieth in 1909. He
was chairman of the New York
republican state convention in 1895
1900 and 1908, and chairman OF
the republican national congressional
committee in 1906. He was elected
Vice President of the United States
Nov. 8, 1908, and renominated fol-
the same office June %, 1912. The
funeral services were held at Utica
on Saturday.
The republican national committee
has been called to meet in Chicago
Nov. 18th, to select a successor tC
place upon the republican ticket
with Taft. Many names have beer
mentioned, the most prominent beins

was the Roosevelt manager in the

Power to DO Anything.

Gasoline engines are now made in
all sizes, for all kinds of farm work,
from the little fellows just big enough
to drive the dairy machinery, wash
er and sewing machine to the heavy
tractors for blowing, reaping, thresh-
ing, hauling and all other kinds of
seavy work says a writer in Farm
and Home. The gas engine will do
most everything, from the family
washing to saving the wood, milking
the cows and pumping the water. 1t
can be readily attached to all the
farm machinery, to the separator
and churn, to all kinds of fodder and
silage cutters, to the repair tools and
even to the grindstone. Wherever
there is a wheel to turn, the little
engine is ready and willing to per-
form its task.
The usual mistake is to get too
small an engine. AS soon as the
purchaser finds out how handy and
economical the engine is he invari-
ably finds more and greater tasks for
it to do until the poor thing is carry
ing a heavy overload. Engines, Ike
horses, do not last long when they
are overloaded Be sure to get one
large enough. A large engine will
do several tasks at once which would
otherwise have to wait their turn il
a small engine was used.

PARCEL POST RULES.
Instructions for New System Received
by POstmasters From the
Postmaster General.

Packages sent by the parcel post
which will be established as part
Of the postal system on January 1sl
must bear the return card of the
sender. Otherwise they will not be
accepted for mailing. All fourth
class matter must bear the distinctive
parcel post stamps beginning Janu-
airy LIST. Such matter bearing ordin-
airy stamps will be treated as Held
for postage" Parcels will be mail
able only at the postoffices, branch
postoffices, lettered and local named
and such numbered stations
as may be designated by the post
master

each postmaster will be furnished
with one or more copies of the Of
fetal parcel post map of the United
States, showing the unit of area in
which his postoffice is located and
the eight postal zones indicating The
distance on which the parcel post
rates of postage are based.
On account of the increase in the
weight limit from four to eleven
pounds it will be necessary to supply
postmasters with scales of adequate
capacity. 1t is expected that every
presidential postofiice and the ma
jority of the Offices of the fourth
class will be properly equipped in
this respect by January 1, 1913.
Tape lines, six feet in length, for
the size of parcel post
packages will be furnished to all

Eattening the Chickens.

Chickens having the run or the
farm seldom nut on sufficient flesh
for the most exacting trade. BY pen
ming them for 10 days or two weeks
and feeding fattening ration, a
gain of one to two pounds per fowl
can be made, says a writer in Farm
and Home. An extra fat chicken VIII
usually bring to cents more per
mound than one only in fair order.
Not over dozen chickens should
he nut together in very limited quar-
'ters. The room should be kept fair
1v dark. sufficient light being ad-
mitted at feeding time to enable the
fowls to see to eat. The reason FOR
crowding and darkening the room IS
to prevent unnecessary movements
for TO fatten readily chicken should
get very little exercise.
A ration recommended for the fat-
tening pen is composed of equal parts
of corn meal, middlings and ground
oats, to which is added 10 per cent
by weight of beef scrap. This NIX
ture is wet up with sour skim mix
and fed from V-shaped troughs. me
chickens should be fed all they VIII
eat in 10 minutes, after which the
feed troughs should be removed and
the pen darkened until time to feed
again. Feed three times a day.

struction of five locks and dams in the
