The Weather-Fair, followed by cloudy tonight and tomorrow.
Bridgeport, Conn,
 Monday, Jan. 22, 1912.
Mill End days are fairly flying.

These saving days of the Mill End sale actually seem to have fairy wings, 50 fast do they fly.
 It hardly seems possible that they should whirI by at such rate. And what busy days they are! How full they are of enjoyment and of economy!
 Busy days are always swift-moving days. When the time Is all-too-short for the things it has begun. Such are Mill End days. They are days of wonderful and continuous activity. Each is crowded full of opportunities to save money. Each sees splendid lot of merchandise spread out for one to choose from. Each Is a day when a dollar does far more than dollars of merchandise.
 But Mill End days are numbered They must be made use of as they go flying along. One cannot afford to let the chances they bring go unimproved To spend money Is always easy, to save 1t Is not always easy. But to save it in the Mill End sale Is just as easy as to spend it. That Is why the Mill End days should be taken advantage of why they should be improved
 Make 1t your personal business to share in the Mill End savings now. They are well worthwhile. They are many. They are varied They are large. And the days in which they may be enjoyed numbered. Be sure to share in them now.

Hog Cholern.

Cholera among hogs probably
causes more loss than any disease,
says Professor Barnes OF the Colo
RADIO Agricultural College. II makes
its appearance SO quickly that 1t IS
difficult to check its spread before
a great loss is sustained. Hog chol-
era is caused by a specific organ
ism and is highly contagious. 1t is
easily transmitted through drink
ing water. food and litter
The first symptoms appear IN
about a week or ten days after
healthy hogs are exposed to the
disease The first manifestations are
lack of appetite, coughs, water
green diarrhoea and an inclination
for the animal to remain in a re-
cumbent position.
From time to time, the effected
hog may have spasms. the attack
lasting half minute or longer.
The animal dies within few hours
after the spasms begin.
The prevention OF hog cholera is
highly important as the very con
tagious nature of the disease viii
warrant the taking OF every pre-
caution against 1t.
In disposing OF the hogs that
have died from cholera. 1t is best
to burn them. The infected yards
should be plowed and houses. after
all the litter has been removed and
burned, should be whltewashed
Healthy hogs. which have not been
exposed to cholera should be inoc-
ulated.

Charcoal For Young Chickens.


There is nothing better for bowel
troubles in little chicks than fresh
ly burned charcoal. The charcoal
grains are also excellent. and are
said to be efficacious in roup. The
greatest problem with little chicks
in brooders is bowel trouble, which
arises from several causes chilling
too much heat, crowding, lack of
exercise, and a wrong diet. If char
coal is Npulverized every day aud
mixed With the food the bowel tron-
BILE quickly disappears, provided
other faults are remedied.
Charcoal is corrective and not
medicine. 1t absorbs gases and
promotes digestion of the food. 1t
is most efficacious when freshly
prepared. for when allowed to stand
It, absorbs odors and gases from
the atmosphere which partially de-
stroys its healthful qualities. 1t may
be fed in any quantity, for the fowls
will not use too much of 1t. but for
larger birds it should be placed in
boxes and put where they may
have access to it. OF course, IT
must be renewed often II used in
this manner. For little chicks. which
need 1t at once, 1t should be mixed
in their food in small quantities
until some effect is seen, and then
the quality moderated to regular
proportion each day. For the brood
er chicks 1t will be found one of
the best regulators known.

uble condition. This latter work Is
accomplished by several classes "
bacteria. One class ferments and de-
composes the refuse. forming am
monia; another class attacks the
ammonia and forms It into nitric
acid. The nitric acid unites with
certain mineral constituents in the
soil to form nitrates. Nitrates are
available as food for green plants.
The whole process OF the forma-
ton OF nitrates out OF manure is
called nitriflcation. and the bacteria
producing the change must have
the conditions necessary for their
growth. such as plenty OF moisture.
proper temperature. and good aera-
ton.
The process of cultivation, which
stirs the soil. gives these conditions.
Cultivation, therefore. assists in do
ing more than the conservation OF
moisture; 1t reaches farther and
deeper in that it is requisite in or
der to give the "nitrifiers" oppor-
tunity to produce an available
plant food.

Write Home OFTEN.

my boy" writes a white-haired
mother to her son, busy man in
a distant state, write home often.
You do not realize what your let
tiers are to me, and how long It
is between them. No, he had not
realized it, and unhappily there
are many absent sons and daugh-
ters who need a similar remind
er. They would be indignant at the
suggestion of wanting filial deyo-
ton, but in the stress of business,
in the happiness of a new home
circle. how rarely they spare an
hour for good long letter to
the aging mother in the old home
the loving mother whose heart
ache, as the passing days fail to
bring the longed-for letter, Is one
of the most pathetic tragedies Of
old age. The decline of the letter
writing habit of an earlier genera
ton has often been deplored, but
this feature of the decline can
neither be excused nor defended.
The post card substitute for let
tiers is little less than mockery
when the cards are sent to the
mother who wants, and should haze
80 much more than that AS youth
lives in and for the future, SO does
old age always look back over the
slope as it nears the summit. The
