Cholera Losses $5,OOO,OOo.

Different authorities have made
various estimates of Minnesota s
losses from cholera during the past
few months. These estimates have
ranged from a few million dollars up
to $25. 600, 600. At the present time
there is no practical way of making a
very accurate estimate of the losses
actually due to hog cholera In figur-
ing such a loss various factors must
be taken into consideration in addition
to the actual value of the hogs which
died Of the disease.
A shote weighing 81 pounds. dying
from cholera, rel resents loss of but
a few dollars, but if this same shote
had been properly prJtected against
the disease by vaccination. grown to
maturity and marketed, the hog raiser
would then have realized several times
the value of the hog as a shote. The
same reasoning holds true of the large
number of young pigs that were sent
to market many months before they
would have been sent under ordinary
conditions, due to the close proximity
of the disease and the inability of
their owners to procure the serum
necessary for their protection. Whole
herds were sent to market during
July and August and instead of re-
turning the owners the ordinary mar
ket value, the sellers had to be con-
tented with that ngure much below
the market price, on account of the
fact that the hogs had been exposed
to cholera and some were probably
infected and would be condemned when
slaughtered.
In estimating hog cholera losses
care should be taken to include only
those hogs which actually died of the
disease. When cholera is in a neigh
boShood and hog is taken sick the
frs thought is usually Of cholera.
Frequently when these cases have
been Investigated some other disease
instead Of cholera was found to be

ALFALFA FOOD
Good for Man and Beast, in
Sickness and Health.

Alfalfa is one of the great if not
the greatest gifts of the Creator to
man. 1t not only furnishes an ideal
ration for stock. but 1t is also a food
for man, preventative of sickness
and sorrow and solace when bodily
ills afflict.
This, and lot more is what the
members of the Morris Improvement
Union learned on Tuesday evening
when F. w. Bower. of Minneapolis,
spoke on the subject of alfalfa as
human food. He has spent much time
in studying the uses and value of al
falfa for both animals and human
beings and he represents a company
which is engaged in manufacturing
any number of alfalfa products and
putting them on the market.
First of all, as a stock food, alfalfa
can be ground up and its feeding
value increased about 20 per cent
This ground alfalfa can then be mixed
with ground fax straw which when
water is added has the feeding value
of skinned milk. The fax straw is
handled in such way as to remove
the indigestibIe woody fibre. and is
valuable on account of the oil which
it contains. This mixture can also
be ground fine a8d mixed with "red
dog and makes fine dairy feed. In
fact, the alfalfa can be prepared in
different ways so as to make the most
suitable feed for either cattle, horses
or hogs, as different animals require
that it be prepared differently.
When it comes to the use of alfalfa
as human food Mr.. Bower spoke most
interestingly. His company is now
making alfalfa -four, alfalfa green
tea, alfalfa black tea. alfalfa coffee
and instant coffee. alfalfa syrup. al
falfa candies of many kinds. alfalfa
soda water and alfalfa medicinal pre-
parations. The latter includes alfalfa
tcnic, alfalfa bitters and alfalfa pills.
According to those who have used
these alfalfa medicines. it will cure
rheumatism, kidney disease, headaches
heartaches and domestic troubles.
Samples of the candies and pills
were distributed by Mr.. Bowers and
caused much merriment.
Mr.. Bowers would like to put in a
stock food mill here on account of the
supply of both alfalfa and fax straw
available, and desires that the city
take portion of the stock of the
company. The proposition was re
ferred to the committee on industries.
Mr.. Bowers will have both at
the Corn and Alfalfa Exposition, and
exhibit his alfalfa preparations. He
will also furnish the materials for the
alfalfa banquet which will be served.
A special committee of gastronnomic
experts have been selected to par
take of sample banquet which will
be served within few days.

Choosing the Right Present.

Are you in doubt about a certain
present? The Youths Companion has
proved to be one Of the best that
can be chosen. Perhaps you have
not seen it lately, and are not quite
sure. Then let US send you sample
copy or two. Suppose you ask for the
issues containing the opening chapters
of Arthur Stanwood Piers fine serial
story of life in boys school ellis
Fathers Son." If you look TIE paper
over carefully, bearing in mind that
there are fifty-two such numbers for
a years subscription of So. 90, we are
sure you will say that better present
could not be chosen, whether for a
young person or for an entire family.
For the years subscription of So. 90
there is included copy of The Com
panion Practical Home Calendar for
1914. and all the issues for the re-
maining weeks of this year. dating

RETURNED TO OWNER.
All Samples Entered at the Corn
Show.

All prize winning samples of corn
at the Corn and Alfalfa Exposition,
and all other samples not winning
prizes will be returned TO the exhibit
ors. The original plan of the man
agement was TO sell the prize winning
samples at auction. This will not
bs done, however, and all corn. with
the exception Of the grand champion
ten ears will be returned to the ex-
hibiturs.
The entry fee of fifty cents has also
been stricken out, and not any entry
fees will be charged. 1t is the pur-
pose of the management to make this
the largest corn show that has ever
been held in Minnesota, and it is be-
lieved that the corn exhibits at this
exposition, will undoubtedly be the
finest corn raised in West Central
Minnesota this season, and should go
back to the farms upon which it is
produce.
This action should encourage more
farmers to exhibit their corn and al
faIfa, as this rule will apply to al
falfa as well as corn.
Farmers in many counties have not
received copies of the premium list,
ana they can secure them from the
county agents or from the official
secretary. P. E. Miller, Morris. Mimi.
Every endeavor has been to thorough
ly distribute the premium list and
everyone not receiving copy should
put in special call for one.
1t is also desired that the entries
be sent in as soon as possible. By so
doing much confusion will be avoided
and everyone will be assured of the
best of service.
All exhibits will be carefully
handled and returned in the same
condition that they were received.
Remember there will be no entry
fee and no corr will be kept by the
exposition.
