Keeping hogs clean is a very
necessary part of their care, and
every hog ward should be provid
ed with dipping tank, or bet.
ter yet a cement hog wallow
constructed as follows:
For ase during warm weather
make wallow at least six feet
wide and eight feet long, one
en- ! aloping so as to give the hogs
easy access and egress. Make it
deep enough SO the dipping solu-
ton will be about IL inches
deep. 1t is best to build of ce.
ment. For use on warm days in
winter the..ordinary dippingtank
would be best, made in the fol.
lowing manner: Eight feet long
on top, four feet on bottom, four
deep and two feet wide. 1t will
be necessary to drive hogs thru
this tank during the winter, but
the hogs will use the waliow
themselves during the summer.
In this wallow solution of
from one to two per cent. of any
Of the various coal tar disinfec-
tants should be kept all the
time. In this way the hogs will
naturally dip themselves, and in
SO doing will rid themselves of
the following conditions:
HOG LlCE-Where hogs are
not properly dipped or creased
j is almost impossible to find
one free of lice. A lousy hog is
harder to fatten than one free of
lice, and why feed a hog in or.
der to raise lice? Free him of
Il these pests and let all the feed
go to make increased size and
weight. Besides dipping the
hog 1T is important also to clean
up the hog yard and pens and
dlslnfect them with the same
dlainfectant.
2. Mange-This is caused by
very small parasite that lives
IN the skin. 1t multiplies very
rapidly, causes violent itching,
and produces small blisters. The
skin. appears red and inhamed.
The pain and irritation usually
cause the hog to act restless, and
III many cases the appetite is
poor and a very general unlhrifty
condition exists. Dipping the
how IN the two per cent. solu.

ant as mentioned above will
remedy this trouble.

Organizations as Social Influences

the Metropolitan opera house in New
York city. 1t will have the world S
greatest theatrical productions and in
no concentrated form
In a social sense that city is to
be lifted above others of it's size by
the enterprise and farsightedness of
it's Chamber of Commerce. But, even
so, all credit should not be given to
the organization. The men of that
city deserve the primary credit They
deserve the credit because they were
ready to jump in and make the Com
mercial club a success, to keep it
alive so that it would be ready to
take advantage of all opportunities,
social as we'll as financial.
Now, when you go home to dinner
tonight ask your wife what she thinks
about this matter. Tell her of that
other city which is to have grand
opera and the best musical and theat-
rical attractions of all kinds. Tell her
that this town could have similar ad-
vantages if all the live men like you
who live here did their most to make
the towns commercial Organization a
complete success. Then ask her
whether she thinks you are doing your
full duty in this respect. If she is not
afraid to speak her true mind it is
almost a certainty that she will say

STREET STORIES

A prominent business man was go
ing to his office on Main street this
morning when a gust of wind carried
his hat from his head and sent it roll
ing along on the street. The man ran
after it for a short distance and when
he saw that he could not recover it he
stopped and said, We'll, goodbye old
boy" waving his hand after the hat
can get a 1913 model now without
hurting my conscience"
Bareheaded, he turned away to a hat
store and was about to enter, when a
young man ran after him and present
ed him with the lost hat The man
took it sadly and placed it on his head,
remarking at the same time, well, l
guess I'll have to wait another year
now"

By Leo l.. Reddinq.

Pretty nearly everything worth
while in this life comes to us as a
| result of our associating with our
| fellow men.
If it were not, so the hermit pro-
fession would be more popular.
We build great cities because by
nature we are gregarious animals.
We like to listen to the hum of
| industry. Why?
Not because it means prosperity,
but because the prosperity it betok-
ems means better social conditions and
| influences for ourselves and for those
| near to us.
Richmond is just what the people
| who live in it make it. Socially and
morally, as we'll as in business sense
you who make your homes here are
responsible for your Town.
All right, then; it is up to us to
make Richmond a better place-not
but what it is about the best place on
| this old footstool just as it is, but be-
| cause there never was city that
could not be improved. And so long
as we do not do our utmost to better
conditions we fail of our duty.
James j. Hill (you know him; he
put the railroads in Canada and in our
own great states of the NorthwesO
said the other day that the secret of
success in railroading as in everything
else in life, is organization.
TT is just as necessary" said Mr..
Hill, ito have your workmen organi-
zed for their social benefit as it is
to have your traffic department or
gained"
Mr.. Hill was right. He generally
is. His idea is that social improve
ment is necessary to the welfare of
business, and organization is neces-
sary always if the best results are
to be obtained.
All right, then: if Richmond is to
go forward as fast as it should an
organized effort must be made to make
it Just the most attractive place So
cially in this part of the country in
which to live There is much that
the Commercial club can do to i'm
prove social conditions here. Other
chambers of commerce are doing
things of big nature. They are doing
things because they have the loyal
support in a social sense as we'll as
in a financial sense of the men who
are recognized as community leaders.

German Capital in Gala At
tire in Celebration of 18th
Year of the Reign of the
War Lord.
(National News Association,


BERLIN, June 9-Divested of it's
gala wedding attire, Berlin today has
burst forth in even more festive COS
tune in celebration of the beginning
of many days of celebration of the
twenty fifth anniversary of Emperor
Williams reign.
While there are not nearly so MANY
distinguished visiting foreigners in
Berlin today as there were for the
wedding of Princess Victoria Louise,
all European countries and the United
States are represented by special en-
bassies. Berlin, and entire Germany
for that matter, is entering into the
spirit of the occasion even more en-
Enthusiastically than was the wedding of
the kaiser's only daughter celebrated
A former private of the kaiser's guard
company, which he was captain of
while crown prince, has arrived from
the United States to be his personal
guest. He is William Duning, of Rich
mond, Indiana.
Many athletic events are scheduled
to take place in the great Olympic
stadium on the edge of Grunewald for
est, which was erected at a cost of
more than 100000. and in which the
Olympic games are to be held in 1916
is the Second Largest.
This stadium is the second largest
in the world, and was dedicated today
in the presence of the kaiser, his court
and twenty-five visiting sovereigns of
German states, among them the king
Of Wurtemberg and Saxony and the
regent of Bavaria. who are here to par
ticipate in the celebration and to pay
their respects to the emperor
There is an air of suppressed excite
ment among many prominent Ger
mans. for it has been said that the
kaiser planned bestowing many titles
and presenting many orders and deco
rations. 1t is also said that Andrew
Carnegie, who is here to attend the
celebration, will be presented with the
insignia of high order.

William Duning Arrives I'm Berlin
as Guest of the German EmDeT o.

| Announcement of the fortunate win
ner of the Noble prize for peace is to
be made during the festivities, and it
is said that Kaiser Wilhelm expects
that he will be the recipient. If An
| drew Carnegie is decorated, ii Will be
| in recognition of his work in behalf
of international peace. 1t is asserted
that the kaiser regards himself as
one of the principal causes of the con-
| tinued peace that European nations
have enjoyed. Great armies and
| great navies make for international
peace" is the kaiser's assertion.
If the decorations for the wedding
were elaborate, the plans for the jul
bilee are gorgeous. 1t is said that
more than 100000 has been spent in
decorating the streets alone. Inter
der Linden, Friederichstrasse, Leip-
Zigerstrasse, Pariser Platz, Potsdamer
platZ, the Brandenburg gate and other
leading streets have been decorated
under the direction of Germany's most
famous artists. such as Profs. Schultz,
Bruno, Paul and Pater Behrens.
Jubilee Opened Yesterday.
The dedication of the Olympic sta
dunn yesterday opened the jubilee.
The climax of the festivities will be
reached on June Is, when the kings
of Saxony and Wurtemberg, the re-
gent of Bavaria and other German
monarchs will congratulate the kaiser
and be his guests at a banquet. After
the banquet the kaiser, surrounded by
the twenty-five German rulers, will at
tend gala performance of the third
act of Die Walkuere." Putnam Girls
void, the gaiser's favorite singer, and
an American, has been especially in
vited to sing the role of Wotan. He
is the only American who has ever
sung the role on the German operate
stage.
All the hotels of Berlin are again
crowded as they were only few
weeks ago for the wedding. Many of
those who came to attend the we'd
ding remained to be on hand for the
jubilee. Thousands of other visitors
have poured in since, with the result
that the hotel men are hard pressed
to accommodate all. 1t is estimated
that three thousand American tourists
have arrived for the jubilee.
More than 5000 athletes took part in
the games in the Stadium.

Passing Gases Through Iron.

It has been known for some time
that gases will pass through metals
when they are highly heated. Thus
platinum at a red heat will allow air
to pass through it. Iron is also per-
meable for hydrogen when hot and
Recently it has been shown that nitro
gen does not penetrate iron below a
temperature of 800 degrees centigrade.
, Hydrogen passes more easily, and at
