TOY TRAVELLING CRANE.
BY A. Nicely HALL.


This is an easily carried out Idea
that will be productive Of great deal
of fun. The crane may be used to
hoist earth, and dump It to one side
out of the way, in building a miniature
Panama canal, or for excavating for a
toy we'll. or any other play engineering
feat you may think Of.
The toy crane may be built upon
your express wagon, or q homemade
wagon OF the form shown in Fig. 1.
A clothes-pole or short rug-pole may
be used for the mast "a, Fig. p. The
lower end should stick through hole
cut in the wagon-bed. and the two
crosspieces B should be nailed to the
sides several inches above the bot
tom end so they will rest upon the
wagon-bed. When the mast has been
set in place, nail pair Of crosspieces
similar to pair B to its end, beneath
the wagon.bed, to brace 1t. The stick
B, nailed to the upper crosspieces. Is
the lever by which the mast is turned.
The mast-top pulley is a thread
spool, mounted on long spike driven
through the blocks D, and blocks D are
securely nailed to the end Of the mast.

1t is conceded that permanent i'm
munity against hog cholera can be
had only by the use Of serum and
virus. 1t is also conceded by all au'
thorities that serum-alone will not
injure a healthy hog.
Virus should not be used upon pigs
weighing less than fifty pounds. 1t
should not be used on pregnant sows.
II should not be used upon sows
sucking pigs. 1t should not be used
II the animals are suffering from any
disease, or II they are infested with
parasites, or If the surroundings are
not sanitary.
In the above instances, serum
alone Should be used until such time
as the conditions are right. 1t might
also be necessary to use a second ap-
plication Of the serum before giving
the simultaneous method.
While It is possible in many Of the
above instances to use serum and
virus successfully without loss, our
experience has been such that at
times great losses are incurred.
II a pregnant SOW is given virus
she may abort or the pigs may not
develop normally. II she is sucking
pigs, virus nearly always increases
the temperature, gives them a fever
which may cause stopping OF the

to death or may even contract chol-
era.
Anti-hog cholera is used as a pre-
ventive only, and 1t will prevent no
other disease excepting hog cholera.
II there is cholera in the herd, virus
may Increase the trouble, and In this
instance, serum, alone should be used,
and when the animals are in normal
condition again the simultaneous
method may be applied. II the tenn
perature Of the animal is high, no
matter from what cause, the virus In
creases the fever which may kill the
animal.
Where hogs are infested with para
sites, the vitality Of the hog is natur-
ally reduced and the virus may kill
the animal which is also true where
the surroundings are insanitary.
II q pig weighing less than fifty
pounds is vaccinated with the stimuli
taneous method, the immunity may
not last.
1t Is always considered advisable to
use the serum-alone IN all doubtful
conditions. and II permanent immu-
nifty is desired, the virus and serum
given after the conditions are cor
rected.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2i.--Majority
Leader Underwood introduced In the
house today the administrator
emergency war tax" bill, designed te
produce approximately $105,00O.00o In
revenue to Offset the losses In customs
receipts during the European war.
The bill, the details of which were
announced Saturday night, will be re
ported by the ways and means com
mittee tomorrow and taken up In the

Except for its tax on beer, wines
and gasoline, the bill follows closely
the Spanish war revenue measure oil

One change made which will pre-
vent annoyance to thousands Is the
modification Of the method of collect
ing the tax on kilograms and tele
phone messages. Instead OF affixinl
stamp to q telegraph message, the
bill requires that the company shall
keep record Of all kilograms sent ant
remit one cent for each message.
one-cent tax Is put on telephone mes
sages also. The companies are ex
pected to add the one cent to thu
consumers bill.
The telephone and telegraph Ia,
applies to messages which cost L
cents or more, and will not affect Il
cal telephone calls.
The bill becomes effective on dat
of passage. but 1t Is provided that tn

DECLARES JUSTICE
Waited For Weeks Before Max
ing Complaint Decision Set
For Sept. "a

Police Justice Jeffries strongly inti-
mated. Monday morning. that 1t would
be necessary to dismiss the complaint
against Joseph Louwers, st. Clair
Heights dairyman. charged with vio-
iating the city milk ordinance. Health
department ofiicials said they mad
traced more than 80 cases OF typhoid
fever to Louwers' dairy. He violated
the ordinance, II II alleged, when he
permitted milk to be sold from his
place while his daughter was suffer
ing from typhoid fever.
When Louwers appeared In court
for examination Monday, he produced
evidence to show that his place had
been disinfected by DR.. w. H. Rogers,
OF No. 141 Mack-ave., as soon as HIS
daughter became III, and that the pa
tient had been removed to a hospital
without delay.
The complaint against Louwers was
not made until Sept. 10, while his
daughter became III early in August.
| "The trouble with your case Is that
you have come In here too late" said
Justice Jeffries to Health Oficer
Price. "If milk came from this mans
place after there was illness In the
family. and before the place was dis
infected, why wasn't 1t stopped at
once? Why wasn't this man brought
In Mt once"
DR.. Price told the court that so far
as he knew. there had been no disin-
lection of the place, because It was
not reported to his department.

instead Of money for automobiles. The
European war has cut on the selling

is about 10 cents pound. The cotton
output this year will be about Ia
