 Not long ago in looking over a bunch of hogs in western Illinois we observed that most of the animals were afflicted with little sores. red spots. on the thin places in their skins
 These eruptions were particularly noticeable back of the ear and on the Hanks. The farmer complained that his hogs were not eating well and he could not understand what caused the sores to break out
 This bunch of hogs of all ages, from three-months-old pigs to three-year-old sows, ran on a pasture during the day but at night slept in houses which were used for the winter quarters.
 I suggested that the trouble might be caused by lice, and the farmer caught two or three pigs and found them almost alive with parasites. He was astonished and admitted that he had never examined one of his anil mals before.
 Many farmers do not realize that lice are a source of tremendous loss in the raising of hogs. They worry the animals and prevent their feeding well, and in many cases produce sores or eruptions which naturally retard growth.
 c It is not difficult to rid the pig of lice by dipping or spraying, but these remedies are of no use unless the pens and sleeping quarters are rid of the lice as well.
 The best dip to use is some of the tar solutions, as they are harmless. We do not believe ip kerosene emul- sion because unless great care is talk en to keep the solution very weak the animals will blister If allowed to run in the hot sun after being sprayed.
 When a bunch of hogs is badly in- fested the animals should be dipped, although spraying may be used. pro Vided the hogs are tied and thrown 60 that the spray may cover every portion of the body. It Is no use to

CAN'T BAR ALL THE DIVORCED
Monarchs of Great Britain and Rue sIa Find They Must Modify
 Their Ideas.

Queen Mary on her husbands ac- cession to the throne caused it to be known that she intended to revive the rules and regulations of Queen Victoria. She even went a step fur ther, says the Metropolitan, and in- timated that the men concerned in divorce cases, as respondents or as correspondents, would be regarded with disfavor in the highest quarters.
 Queen Victoria never visited her displeasures on the men implicated in divorce cases, save in the solitary in- stance of Sir Charles Dilke. Indeed several of her most famous and most trusted ministers, such as, for in- stance, Lord Melbourne, Lord Palmer ston and the now octogenarian Lord Llandaff, were mixed up in all sorts of divorce cases, without ever forfeit ing either their office or her good will.
 Both King George and, Queen Mary, however, found that 1t was quite impossible to put their avowed intentions into practice. They could not exclude divorced women from their court unless they barred there from the kings own first cousins, Grand Duchess Cyril of Russia and Princess Louise of Schleswig-Hol- stein, as well as host of other royal and imperial foreign personages more or less closely related to them by ties of blood.
 In Russia divorce was condemned formerly both by the court and by so- ciety. Moreover, it was extremely only on the grounds which would suffice to secure a decree of nullity from English and American tribunals, or else for infldelity. But in the lat ter case the legal conditions were ex- acting and the cost of a suit so ex- pensive that demands for the dissolu- ton of marriage ties were few and far between.
 Now, however, the situation has entirely changed. Divorces have be- come frequent in Russian society, and despite the objections of the em- peror and of his Hessian born but English bred consort, the court has had to open it's doors. Thus the wife of General Soukhomlinov, the min ister of war, one of the most popular figures at the court of St. Petersburg and in the great world on the banks of the Neva, was first married to M. de Butewitch, with whom her union was legally and ecclesiasticaily sev- cred in 1909.
 Countess Witte, wife of the former premier who represented Russia at the peace conference at Portsmouth, N. H., in 1905, and who is still . minister of state, is also a divorcee and is received at court. Moreover, there are a number of divorces in the imperial family itself, something wholly unknown until the present reign.

ouestioner FIoored.

One of the members of the school committee undertook to sharpen up the wits of the boys by prorounding the following question:
 'n had a mince pie and should give two-tweIfths to John, two-twelfths to Isaac, two-twelfths to Harry, and should keep half the pie for myself, what would there be left?"
 There was a profound study among the boys, but finally one lad held up his hand as a signal that he was ready to answer.
 Well, sir, what would there be left? Speak up loud so that all can hear," said the committee man.
 "The plate," shouted the hopeful fellow.
 The committee man turned red in the face. while the other members roared aloud.

PROTEST MADE
 AGAINST HUNTER
No Reason Why Farmer Should be Expected to Tolerate Band Of Trespassers Every
 Fall.
By BESSIE L. PUTNAM

A few years ago. when the pioneers along the line commenced to object to the depredations of the hunter, they were charged by hunter and surround ing farmers alike as stingy and un- accommodating. But more and more is there a growing sentiment against having ones farm. used as hunting ground.
 At this season it is very easy to start fire, very difficult to check one that has once commenced. Even though the majority of hunters are careful never to toss aside a lighted cigar, never to strike matches in im- proper places, one never knows when the careless one may come along and do untold mischief
 There is the annoyance to stock. The old saying, "One might as well be killed as scared to death" is ap- plicable with peculiar force. Sheep, worried by hunter and dogs. soon be- come so wild that not even the owner can approach them readily.
 Cattle have been known to stam- peed when a gun was fired in close OuCn lACdlAnCnl ID to the dairyman, to say nothing of the frequent accidents, when valuable animal is sacrificed. the hunter mak- ing of with his game and leaving the owner of the land that much poorer for his generosity.
 Finally, the game is rapidly being exterminated, and much of 1t is really the farmers friend. The quail. the clear note of which fills all bird lov- CTS with joy, is one of the best insect and weed destroyers.
 A flock of quail in the potato patch renders the use of Paris green un- necessary, and the detested cut-worm is their favorite dessert.
 The farmer feeds the world" br there is no reason why he should D- expected to tolerate a band of tres passers every fall, endangering the life of his possessions. In many com munities farmers are banding togeth- ar against the hunting nuisance.

the Austrians, so indignant were they that the country which was once theirs, and from which their prince had busted the Turks, should be given away by Europe to Austria.
 Envoys came in from all the villages eagerly asking, "Will there be war to- day?" The standards were on their way to the church. One was carried by an old man over 60. who was told that he was too old to fight He re- torted that his family had held the banner for 300 years, and that until his son, for whom he had cabled. re- turned from America he would yield 1t to none. But the envoys went sadly back to their villages to say that there would be no war. The prince coun- seled peace and his loyal subjects obeyed him.

RACE TROUBLE
IN COT TON FIELDS
TWO SERIOUSLY HURT - BRlAR-
BLACK PIckERS-SHoOTlNG. .

/ Muskogee, Okla, Sept. 23.-Three
well known farmers living near
Briartown, thirty miles south of this
city, were seriously wounded in a
fight last night with angry citizens
who objected to the importation Of
negro cotton pickers from Eufala
and Muskogee. The wounded men
are Sam Robinson, shot through the
body; w. II. Larrimore, shot in the
head, and John Hilton, shot in the
shoulder
The sentiment in Briartown is
strong against negroes and the out
break is said to have been caused by
the white farmers sending for negro
cotton pickers after an effort had
been made to induce idle white men
in the community to go to work.
Whe nnegroes from this city and
from Eufala arrived they were warn
ed to leave Briartown on the first
train. They took up quarters in
shacks furnished by Robinson. Larri-
more and Hilton and were besieged
Friday night but none Of them were
iniured sr' .
Shots were fired outside the
shacks Saturday night and the ne
groes appealed TO their employers
for protection. The three farmers
decided to defend the shacks last
night and when the first shooting
was heard the fire was returned.
The wounded men were carried into
tie shacks by the negroes after the
had ceased. Another attack
is expected tonight. The citizens
of Briartown are said to have served
notice on the negroes to leave town
this evening. Deputy sheriffs from
this city have been sent to the
scene of the trouble. 1t is said
that Robinson and Larrimore may
not recover.
