PROTECT the Family

Everybody knows the Hupmobile

lean family.
Now II is the winter car Of the
American family. because the Sedan
top gives the family complete pro-
lection on winter trips, says the Cad
lilac co. OF Omaha, the local Hupmo-
bile dealer.
I'd like you TO see the car with the
top fitted. because I'm pretty sure
you will want one for your own
family.
The extra cost is so small that Il
is out Of all proportion 10 the COM
fort afforded and the colds and doe
ter bills IL prevents.
Its appearance is handsome lit

TALLY built and firmly, though tenn
pororily, attached

And when spring comes, take Il off
and store il away for use the next

The difference in the number OF Douglas
county ballots marked for governor and for con-
gresham is only 655 and the difference be-
tween the number marked for governor and
land commissioner, whose total is the least in
this list is but 1850. With eight-foot ballot,
voted by $4,000 people, this is not much OF a
discrepancy-in fact, we challenge anyone to
show us $4,000 ballots cast In any other part Of
the state in which there is not noticeable ex-
cess of votes for governor
SO far as any discrepancy is disclosed by
these figures, IT has an entirely different eX-
PLANTATION from that which the Hub and the
Journal so Eeefully jump at Realizing that he
needed TO be bolstered up here in his home
county, the special friends of the republican
candidate for governor in charge OF the cam
paign organization provided the republican
workers at the polls with peculiar card to guide
the voters This Garland the paid workers
were permitted to distribute no other-did not
ask anyone TO vote the republican ticket or to
put cross in the republican circle. but gave a
list of recommended candidates headed by How
ell, then dropping to congressman. emitting all
other candidates On the state ticket Any voter
who governed himself by this card would throw
away his vote for all state offices except gov
ernor, and presumably that Is what several
hundred did. being measured by any falling off
in the total below that scored for the candidates
for congress. On treasurer for example, the
number OF votes so lost might have been 500
but the suggestion that $500 ballots, or any
other number marked for governor alone served
as receipts for the distribution OF ST, 900 in 50
bills Is fiction OF the yellowest order.

7,I52 saloons.
Galesburg two years ago voted for license under
promise of the vets that by doing Galesburg would
drive out the blind pigs which they said existed in dry
Galesburg. In less than three months the saloon
keepers themselves made frantic appeals to the police
to rid the city of blind pigs, which were proving to be
too strenuous competitors with the licensed saloon
keepers. Now comes report from the Cincinnati

One is the account of the death of John Lehman
Lehman died in fit of delirum tremens at the city
jail His death was witnessed by another prisoner
who unnerved by the sight that he fell to the
floor in faint The Bulletin says they feared that he
too would die.
The other is the account of a woman taken to the
city prison because she intoxicated to care for
herself The Bulletin says that this woman had her
infant in childs cab the other day and she was so
badly intoxicated that the baby's cab was upset. but
fortunately without injury to the baby. Neghbors
have complained and the result was that she was
placed in Jail matter of safety"

bring swine from such places and put
them in healthy breeding herd.
It is an excellent plan to have a
quarantine pen some distance from
all other swine, and so located that
there Is practically no danger Of
transmitting diseases to the herd. All
recently purchased animals should be
held in quarantine in such a pen for
ten days, to be certain that they are
free from disease, before placing them
In healthy herd
IL disease of swine occurs in the
neighborhood, keep away from these
farms and do not allow anyone who
has been on an infected farm to visit
your herd. If your swine have access
to a stream of running water and
disease appears on farm located
above yours, on the same stream, re-
move your hogs at once, as the in
lection is liable to be carried by the
stream. Dogs and buzzards, also, are
liable to carry the infection of hog
cholera and should be kept away If
possible. Such measures are simple,
but they are very important.
While a few swine can be raised
confined in limited quarters, if such
quarters are kept clean, they will do
better, will keep in better health and
can be grown more cheaply if they
have plenty of range for pasture. It
is desirable to have the pasture
fenced off into suitable areas so that
the hogs can be shifted from one pas
ture to another, not only to provide
fresh pasture. but also to afford an
opportunity to disinfect the pastures,
either by blowing and seeding to
forage crop or by exposure to sun and
weather. Nearly all cases of intestinal
worms, which are rather common in
swine, are contracted from infected
ground, and swine can be kept free
from these parasites by frequent
changes Of pasture.

TIMELY HINTS OF SHEEPFOLD
Animals Should Be Provided With
Shelter From Fall Rains-Let
Lambs Run In CornfieId.

Sheep need but little care during the
fall months, but they need that little
very much.
By all means provide shelter from
the fall rains. Do not compel them to
stay indoors, but give them a shed so
they can get out of the rain when they
wish.
Have some bright hay in the shed
rack, so they can eat little without
going In a sleet rain.
The sheep should have been dipped
after shearing In the spring. II any
ticks escaped destruction a dipping
this fall should surely be given. II
new sheep are bought dip before add
ing to the old flock.
Sheep fatten better If sheared be-
fore being put on feed. Close con-
fnement and heavy fleece are against
rapid gains.
The field makes an ideal place for
lambs to feed after the corn gets
cared out. They clean out the weeds,
eat enough down corn to keep fat.
and are ready for market when their
task is done.
Keep the sheep pens and yards
clean. Sheep manure heats rapidly
and filth is injurious to sheep, especial
ly to the feet.

SUCCESS WITH SWINE.
Most important Factor Is Health
of the Animals.
Extraordinary Care Should Be Exer.
cIsed In Purchasing Hogs to Sec
That They Are Free From
TransmissibIe Diseases.
By N. MAYO.l

CBy N. MAYO.)
In the successful raising of swine
there are problems, other than that
of feeding, which often determine
success or failure. The most impor-
tant Of these is the preservation of
the health Of the swine. Wherever a
considerable number of animals are
gathered together the risk from dis
ease is considerably increased. Extra
precautions must then be taken to
guard against disease and to keep the
animals in thrifty condition.
The first essential is that their
quarters be kept clean and sanitary.
In purchasing swine, care should be
taken that they come from herds free
from transmissible diseases, that they
are healthy, and have not been ex-
posed to disease in transit. Public
stockyards are liable to be infected
with hog cholera; it is dangerous to
