swerd.manship Against a Tiosr.

Swordsmanship Against 4 Tiger.
Sir James Outram, known as the
Bayard OF India. was a mighty hunt
err and an accomplished swordsman.
He once performed the hazardous feat
Of killing tiger with his sword and
from the back Of his horse. General
Nicholson performed a similar feat.
He rode round and round the tiger at q
gallOp, gradually narrowing the circle
until at last he was near enough to de-
liver his blow. He had only the one
blow and If he had failed would have
been slain. The explanation Of the feat
is that the tiger does not spring upon
the horseman during the circling proc
ess because he is watching his opportu.
nifty. As the circle draws closer and
closer upon him he becomes bewildered
by the strange maneuver, SO unlike
that Of any hunter he has ever encoun.

To the Editor of The Age-Heraid:
 During the year 1911 hog cholera be- came quite prevalent in nearly every county in Alabama. In fact all hog rais- ing states have suffered serious losses from hog cholera during that year. Up to the present time in 1912 hog cholera has been quite well spread over the state of Alabama The loss during 1910 in Ala bama ranged from S100,000 to S2000O0. At the present time inquiries concerning hog cholera and hog diseases come to my office so frequently that it becomes neces- sary for me to make a statement con corning what we can do to help the farm CTS or stock men to control and possibly eradicate this disease.
 First I must state that we have no funds with which to make or distribute hog cholera serum. Second, we do send out circular letters telling the farmers where they can get serum and how to useit. People must remember that anti hog cholera serum is not curative, out a preventative remedy. However, it will used before the disease breaks out in the herd and when it first appears in herd. If the disease is present in the herd the serum and the disease will pro- duce a permanent immunity in all hogs that recover or pass through the out break The hogs that have cholera or any other infectious disease should be kept out in a pasture where there are shade trees and an abundance of pure water. Dusty sleeping places should be avoided. because dust is liable to carry germs of pneumonia. bronchitis, or lung worm parasites. In all cases where hogs have a cough or discharge from the nose or mouth 1t is extremely important that they be kept away from all houses, barns and stables where dust is liable to accumulate: especially at this season of the year when the hot days come, it Is also essential that the hogs be given access to an abundance of pure water (not mud holes or stagnant ponds or pools). The best water comes from depp wells, protected springs and protected shallow wells or artesian water. It IS also essential at this season of the year that hogs have plenty of good pasture food, such as bermuda grass. oats. wheat. rye, green sorghum, rape. alfalfa, etc. The other foods should also be good or the best in quality, such as corn. shorts, tankage, etc. Recently I have found a number of hogs that have practically recovered from cholera 10 become infected with pneumonia germs from filthy dusty

CRUDE STEEL BEING
 SENT T0P|TTSBURG
Companies Rushed to Meet Opportunities of Con-
 sumers for Deliveries

New York. May 2G.-The steel companies are compelled to resort to all sorts of ex- pediencies in an effort to meet the inn DC rtunities of consumers for deliveries Of finished material on contracts. Although new orders are less heavy, specifications are large and pressing, and 1t is now im- possible to increase output except by sub stituting Bcssemer for open hearth steel when allowed. It is like shipping coals 10 Newcastle to send crude steel to Pitts burg. but that is being done, and more bill lets are being sought in the open market for similar shipment. Chicago is shift ing orders to Alabama to make headway against the pressure for shipments.
 The recent large buying of locomotives Is reflected in an advance of S2 per ton in the price of lap weld steel boiler tubes, and the urgency for prompt shipments for bars plates and shapes is evident in a further hardening of prices for warehouse stocks.
 Railr6ad demands for equipment are far from satisfied and building and bridge contracts are increasing.
 Last week the Illinois Central ordered 4ooo cars, the Sunset Central 175o cars and the Seaboard Air Line 26 locomotives. The Boston and Maine has prepared speclfica- tions for 1880 cars and 150 locomotives. Several bridge contracts also were placed last week by railroads. Pacific railroads ordered 5000 tons more rails and mis- ceianeous orders brought the total to fl ,ooe tons. A change of specifications has made the pending contract for 150,- coo. tons of rails for Australia more attrac- tive to American mills.

surroundings and sleeping places. Every one should remember that fresh air day and night is one of the best preventative and curative remedies for all lung trou- hles. I find also that d number of farm CTS are inclined to give too much medi- cine or to depend upon medicine to cure and prevent diseases of hogs. Hogs are not easily handled and especially they do not take medicines well when forced to do it. Forcing medicine down a hog will often mean inhalation pneumonia, be- co use the medicine is liable to pass down into the wind pipe and bronchial tubes.
 Let me repeat that 1t is impossible for want Of funds for me to send expert veterinarians to Investigate hog diseases, because we have not the funds to pay tho expenses. to say nothing of paying the men for the time actually employed. Moreover we cannot send serum or medi- cine of any kind for the same reason It is true that we could make the serum and distribute 1t among the farmers if we had sufficient funds. It is possible that at some future time the state may be able to take up this work and thus save much of the immense loss that is now coming to nearly all hog raisers in Alabama. Alabama farmers have pust be- gun to raise and feed hogs and they should be encouraged by ample state pro- lection.
 You can secure anti-hog cholera serum from the following companies:

THE COMING OF
 THE WATER LILY

"Yes. there are many tales of my people, but who cares for them now? Our children go to the white mans school and do not care, and the white man only laughs" Then she yielded and told how the water lily came.
 My grandfather told me this: When all the world was fair and there was no evil in it. our people lived near a beautiful small lake. By day We saw the sun reflected in it. unless there were clouds and by night we some times saw the changing moon, but always save when the clouds came one beautiful star reflected there. When the sun. was shining the world was filled with light so that one saw many other things in the water, but at night when the moon was away our star shcne alone So we grew to love the star and cailed her our star. The star felt our love and longed to be nearer, so she left the sky and nestled in the heart of q prairie flower. but the stamping of the buffalo startled her and she went back to the sky. Again she came to the heart of flower on the mountain. but her Loneliness was greater than before While she was hiding in tho prairie and the flow CTS of the mountain our peoplo missed her and mourned her. One cloudy night when WIG could see nothing she came to the lake to rest on it's surface, but the lake was ruffled by wind and she was driven hithcr end thither, but when the morning came the lake was covered with beautiful snow-whifo hlosscms, cach of which held q part of our star. When the people saw them thoy were glad, saying our star is with us in the day as well as the night. Thus came the water lily out Of darkness and sorrow.

their way to reach it. This has been proved in all cities where creosoted yellow pine block pavement has been properly laid. Pedestrians are attracted to streets paved with 1t because of the freedom from dust and the cleanly con- dition of the crossings.
 While ground floor tenants seek a street paved with ereo- soted yellow pine blocks be- cause of the greater travel 1t attracts, office workers flock into the upper stories of build ings upon which it faces be- cause this pavement mlnim- izes the noise of traffic.
 In New York, second stories used as storage rooms when the streets were paved with granite blocks, were converted into fine offices after the streets had been re-paved with wood blocks, and these offices are now always well filled and command profitable rentals.
 Having shown the property owner that his interests as a tax payer and as a landlord are best served by creosoted yellow pine blocks, our next will demonstrate the value of this pavement to the jobber as well as the retailer.

What makes business prop erty valuable?
 It is the travel in front of it-the travel in the street, the travel on the sidewalks. In other words, Mir. Landlord, your rates are based on the number of people who pass in front of your property. Your tenants are paying you for the opportunity to divert some of this human tide into their stores or offices.
 We are speaking broadly, but none the less correctly.
 Now it is evident that the easier the street is to pass over, the more people will use it-both in vehicles and on foot.
 It has been demonstrated that street paved with ere osoted yellow pine blocks DOES DRAW TRAVEL from streets paved with granite, brick or asphalt, because the creosoted yellow pine block presents a larger degree of at tractiveness than any or all of these other pavements. Team sters and automobiles alike prefer it and go blocks out of
