JAIL. COMMITTEE IS
IN QUANDARY ABOUT
SHERIFF RESIDENCE
WILL PROBABLY DEFER ACTION
UNTIL MEETING OF COUN-
TY COURT.
ON FIRST MONDAY IN OCTOBER
Bids, Which Have Been Rejected, All
Ran Around $4,000, Which Was
1000 Above the Amount Appropri-
ated-TWo Alternatives Presented,

The committee from the county
court in charge of building a new res
idence for the sheriff is in a quandary.
They are limited in the amount that
they can spend, $4,000, by the court,
and the bids, all of which have been
rejected, run around $4,000. They
have not advertised for others vet.
but 1t is probable that they will do
so, according to Judge Mcknight, the
chairman, before the court meets in
quarterly session on the second Mon
day in October.
All of the committee seem to think
that the bids are too high, and that
it should not cost $4,000 to put I'D a
sheriffs residence. Included in the
bids that were made was the present
home of the sheriff, in which there is
large amount of good brick. One
OF the contractors has estimated that
it is worth only 5000 The committee
believes that this is rather low for
such a building, although it will be
rather expensive to tear it down and
remove it to make way for the
new one.
The court, when it meets on Octo-
Der II, may have to modify the plans
somewhat to get inside of the appro-
priation that it has made, or it may
appropriate more in order to build
the residence according to the pres
ent specifications.
One thing may be said in favor OF
the plans that have been drawn by
the architect, they certainly provide
for a comfortable, convenient home,
at which no state commissioner of
charities can make complaint when
he makes his report a year hence.
The court seems to be up against
the proposition of either reducing

QUARANTINE LAWS
HOG CHOLERA MEN AGAIN IN
SYST ON BEING NOTIFIED
EARLY.

A great deal of misunderstanding
has arisen in regard to the hog choIe
ra quarantine. If a farmer has
herd of hogs, some with cholera and
some immune, and the latter are
ready for market, all that is required
OF him is that he spray the immuhe0
with a go solution of compound Gre
sol if he is going to drive them 10
market, but if he is going to haul
them, the spraying may be dispenser
with.
If there is a bunch of hogs Win
cholera, in which there are seVerdl
immune hogs, these latter are handleu
in the same way as the former, unless
they can be turned on part OF tne
farm that is away from running Wa
ter and public roads until they can
be sprayed.
This quarantine law is a benefit u
all, both to the man with the SIGN
hogs and his neighbor whose NOES
are well. If the hogs are allowed u
run at large on the farm after the!

The hog cholera officials are AGAIN
insistent in their request that lHe
farmers watch their hogs almost ''i''
at this season, when there is SO lHu'"
cholera, and notify them as So'1 a.
they see even the slightest indI7P'7l
ton among them. In this way HIu'"
trouble will be avoided and H''n'
hogs saved.
