CHOLERA SERUM PLANT
PRAISED BY HOG EXPERT
Idaho Institution at the University
Ono Of the Best Of Its Kind De.
cIares Minnesota Man,

Idaho will boast Of the greatest
and most complete hog cholera serum
plant in the west when all of the de-
tails in connection with the one that
is being installed at the University Of
Idaho are complete. This is the
opinion of DR.. L. E. Wiley, the ex
pert from the University of Minnesota
who has been in this state for the
past month studying conditions and
assisting in the installation Of the
Idaho plant.
Speaking of the Idaho plant, Dr.
Wiley said:
There are but few plants Of the
| character of the one installed at the
University of Idaho in the west, for
it is of the very best type. Consider
ing its newness, the Idaho plant is
wonderfully well equipped and will
soon be ready to supply the hog rails
ers OF this state with a product that
cannot be excelled in potency at any
of the older manufacturing plants in
the east. Lin
Fail to Appreciate Value
THE hog raisers in the west do not
yet appreciate the value of such en-
terprises to their industry for the rea-
son that up to the present time hog
cholera has not become very widely
spread this side of the middle western
states. But the only reason that the
disease has not come west more rap
idly is that the hog industry in the
west has not grown as fast as it has
in the corn belts. AS hog raising be-
comes more extensive in Idaho and
her nelghbor states, cholera will prove
as much a menace here as it has in
the east and the middle west, 1t will
spread through stock fairs and stock
sales, and through the importation of
eastern hogs
Dr. Wiley denied the popular i'm
preston that the west is naturally inn
mune through it's climatic conditions
from the cholera pest, and pointed to
many instances where the disease is
getting foothold in sections that
had always believed themselves i'm
mune from it's ravages,
Inc government appropriation will
also assist in the conducting of further
experiments along the lines of COM
batting the malady,
The loss suffered by hog raisers in
the middle west last year as a direct
result of cholera amounted to $50, OOO,-
900. This loss was occasioned in large
part through the failure of hog rails
ers to take proper precautions for the
protection of their herds.
Preventative Cure
Tho serum vaccination process is
not recommended as a cure for hog
cholera. 1t is intended only as pre-
tentative measure. If used in time in
healthy herd the serum has an eff
cheney of almost 100 per cent. If not
applied until the herd has become in

BIG PARADE HANDLED
| BY TELEPHONE
Knights TempIar ConcIave Unusual

Denver, Colo, Aug. 11-With over
10000 mon in line General John Chase
and his committee of assistants will
form and direct the gigantic knight
Templar parade here almost entirely
by telephone. A special centra
switchboard has been installed at con
clave headquarters and by means OF
branch telephones at short intervals
along the line Of march the committee
will be kept in direct touch with the
movements and progress of the vas;
army of marching Knights,
Besides the host of Sir Knights who
are in attendance at the conclave
there are over 1000 visitors in the
city, and unusual and careful plans
have been prepared for their care and
comfort. Special plans have been ar.
ranged by the telephone company in
anticipation of the great increase in
the number of telephone calls during
the conclave. For months past that
company has been busy installing
emergency telephones, additional
switchboard facilities and training the
$50 extra operators who will be re-
quired to assist the regular force in
handling the calls. Over $50 emer-
gency telephones have been connected
with the newspapers and hotels and
information bureaus, and at various
places along the streets telephones
connected with the central exchange
have been provided for the convent
ence of the visitors.
Discussing the telephone prepare
tions for the conclave visitors, an Of
fetal of The Mountain States Tele-
phone Company said today: "Emer-
gencies such as this require that we
provide facilities far beyond our usual
daily need The present convention
with it's vast influx of visitors and
consequent increase of telephone calls
is only repetition of other conven-
lions we have handled, and will have
to handle in the future. Our plant in
vestment has always been, and must
always be, sufficient to take care Of
not only the usual daily business, but
the maximum number of calls that
come to our switchboards. This is
true not only of Denver and other
large centers but of each one of our
exchanges throughout the territory
as a unit. The provisions in Denver
during the present conclave are such
that each one of the daily 100000 call
will be handled as promptly and as
carefully as at any other time
The careful study and preparation
to provide for the telephone needs of
conventions and similar gatherings
shows quite conclusively that the bust
ness of the telephone company, as vel
as that of other service corporations
Is unusual and that the difficulties
which confront them are not to be
Judged by everyday standards.

It is designed primarily to assist in

Potatoes Injured by Careless Handling
Of Sacks
Potatoes are often badly bruised by
the careless dumping Of full sacks. 1t
would be better practice to use what
are called half-sacks, or fill the or
binary sacks but half full in the field.
They could thus be more easily and
carefully handled. There are many
little points of this kind whose appli-
cation need not involve loss of time,
but which would undoubtedly effect q
saving Of hundreds OF thousands o.
dollars annually to the potato growers
Of this state.
Irrigation Delayed Too Long
The recent field inspections showed
that many growers were permitting
their potato fields to become too dry
before irrigating. In most districts
the numerous showers of June were
deceptive. Although in the aggre-
gate the rainfall was considerable, it
consisted mainly of light showers, or
heavy ones of very short duration
These moistened the surface, but did
not penetrate to the root systems of
deeply rooted crops such as potatoes.
The growers were often misled by the
surface moisture, when the soil about
the roots had become too dry. In sue
cases the vines had become dark and
dull In color.
Frequent Light irrigation Advised
Potatoes should be irrigated lightly
but frequently, keeping the water we'll
below the tuber line. This means
clean, deep trenching and good ridg-
ing. The effect CT heavy irrigation at
long intervals is to cause irregular
growth and knotty potatoes. The fire.
quent application of too much water
is apt to cause hollow potatoes.
Every potato grower should now
look over his fields and select the best
portion for seed purposes.
It is the intention to discuss the
question of storage in. cellar, pit and
railroad car in the near future.

Good Reason for His Enthusiasm

When man has suffered for severe
days with collie, diarrhoea or other
form of bowel complaint and is then
cured sound and well by one or two
doses of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often
the case, it is but natural that he
should be enthusiastic in his praise
of the remedy, and especially is this
the case of severe attack when
life is threatened. Try it when in

sp'endidly uniform, vigorous potato

The writer was Informed that condi-
tons were about normal this season,
and that the average yield of potatoes
in the Idaho Falls district is about
125 sacks per acre. Many of the care
full growers obtain yields of 200 to
$50 sacks an acre, under conditions
causing them a loss of stand rang
ing from 10 to rs per cent and the
presence of diseased plants amounting
to about as great percentage. Is
there any other business beside farm
ing that would tolerate such percent
age of loss, mostly avoidable with a
modicum of care?
