Senator Stone very wisely sUg-
gests that the Democratic party has
other work than the nomination OF
a United States senator. The nom.
inee must 60 before the people at
the November election and must
poll more votes than any opponent
in order to land the plum. This
suggests the necessity of eliminat.
ing personalities and factional strife
from whatever contest there may
be for the nomination, to the end
that nobody may be hostile or in
different towards the successful can.
didate in his final contest against
the Republi an nominee. The Dem
oCratic maj rity in the United States
senate is so slender and so many
policies yet remain to be solved by
legislation, it is imperative that
Missouri Democrats have in that
body a man whose influence and
whose vote will be on the side of
the people rather than on the side
of the interests. Senator Stones
suggestion is both timely and wise.
fractional strife should have no
part in the forthcoming campaign.

Whistle to Your Children.

Buy a little whistle, hang it on a
hook near the kitchen or dining
room door, and when the children
are wanted for meals, or to do err
rands, blow it, instead of firing your
self out calling them. The sound
carries much farther than the voice
and it requires but little effort to
blow. l arrange a different signal
for each: One long blast for the old

Preventing Infection.

preventing Injection
Since our public stockyards and
railway cars may be considered as
permanent ceuters of infection, it
would be we'll for the prospective
purchaser of hogs to act on the as
sumption always that the swine he
buys are coming from centers OF
infection, and then observe the
necessity quarantine regulations and
preventive treatment that would
insure him against loss. Although
no absolutely safe guide can be out
lined for every particular instance
we would recommend the following
general procedure;
|. Observe care that neWly-pur-
chased stock comes from healthy
herus..
2. Transport the animals in dis
infected wagons or railway cars,
and never unload directly into pub
lie stOCkyards.
If your own herd of swine has
been immunized, the newly-pur-
chased animals may be Similarly
treated and Immediately added to
the herd. Ii your own herd is sus.
ceptible TO infection Gf il has not
been immuDized), then the newly.
purchased stock should be kept i5o-
lated for at least three weeks before
being permitted to mingIe with the
whole herd. In all cases where
herds are not immune the newly.
purchased stock should in addition
to the above precautions be spray
ed with diSinfectant Immediately
upon arrival at the premises. This
spraying should be repeated at one
week intervals until the end of the
third week when, if no indications
of disease exist, the newly-purchas-
ed animals may be put with the
balance of the herd.
The bodily temperature of new
ly purchased animals should be
carefully observed at the time of
purchase and at three or four.day
intervals until the expiration of the
three-week quarantine period Tenn
peratures Of 104 degrees or abveo
unless they are temporary and
caused by violent exercise or hot
weather, must always be looked up-
on with suspicion The careful Oh.
servance Of these precautions, while
not an absolute guarantee against
the spread of infection, would be
quite safe in the majority of in
stances. Paul Fischer, Ohio State

and that he had never entertained
a thought of leaving them and re-
turning to the Republican party.
He declared that upon his return he
would enlist in the fight with great
er vigor than ever before and ex-
pected to stump the country next

Reeds Is of a Better Sort

The 673 Democrats in Scotland
county who voted for Senator James
A. Reed in 1910, are not alarmed
over the fight the St. Louis Repub-

will be remembered that the con-
trOller Of the Republic was the big

tor Reed and it is we'll known that
the Republic is simply trying to
stir up something so that it will
have an opportunity to name his
successor if possible. We believe
