HOG CHOLERA IN CHASE COUNTY
Serious Outbreak Near hatfield Green
Alarms Farmers.

Cottonwood Falls. Kan, Jan. g.
Hog cholera is said to have made its
appearance in this county. A serious
outbreak of the disease is reported
near hatfield Green, where a well
known shipper has already had severe
losses. A state veterinary specialist
has been here this week and an effort
is being made to stamp out the disease
and prevent it from spreading.
Farmers in this section of the state
say hogs have been unusually free
from all contagious diseases during
the past four or five months and that
scarcely any losses have occurred in
that time. The appearance of the dis
ease in midwinteF as is now the case
is unusual, they say.

Knocks and Boosts.

Los Angeles Tribune: An editorial
recently printed in the Tribune felic-
itated the people Of California on the
fact that two big eXpositions were to
be held in this state in 1915. The as
ser!ion was made that these shows
were not to be regarded as rivals but
as complimentary the one Of the
other. At the same time the Oakland
Tribune printed comment concerning
he san Diego exposition that knock
cd its prospects without in any way
increasing the chances of success for
San Francisco's big show.
AnalyZing the cost of maintaining
the san Diego exposition the Oakland
Tribune figures out that the daily at
tendance, even supplemented by the
receipts from concessiOnaries, will
leave a huge deficit. Declaring that

1t is indeed brave thing san Diego
has attempted. Our compliments to

surance that Los Angeles will indeed
