at all. True it is that the disease fro.s
quentiy makes its appearance within
her borders, but it is not allowed to
spread, on account Of the rather en-.
ergetic way they have Of dealng with
it. a -
Canada employs what is commonly
known as the slaughter method when
an outbreak of the disease occurs. Up
on a diagnosis Of cholera being made,
all hogs in the herd are appraised and
slaughtered. The owner is compen-
sated in full for all carcasses that
fail to show any evidences of the
disease, and receives two thirds value
for the affected carcasses. All expos
ed herds are dealt with in the: same
way, the work being in charge Of
veterinary inspectors under the Veter-
iary Director General Of the Canadian
Department of Agriculture
A very interesting fact ii connec-
tion with hog cholera in Canada is
that it has been found, with few ex-
ceptions, that the probable source of
infection has been uncooked bits Of
pork rind, etc., which have been eat
en- by hogs fed on garbage. A largo
quantity Of pork consumed by Canad-
ians is imported from the United
States where the disease has been
prevalent for long time It is
possible for hog to be in the incu-
bative stage of the disease when
slaughtered, and the carcass passed
for human consumption. This pork
apparently has no bad effect on hui
man beings, but will convey the dis
ease to susceptible hogs unless it is
thoroughly cooked. Picking and
smoking apparently fail to destroy
the cholera germs.
Vaccination Of hogs is not permit
ted in Canada. A regulation Of the
Canadian Government reads as fol-
lows: The use of hog cholera serum
or virus, being considered source Of
danger, the importation, manufacture,
sale or use Of such serum or virus is
prohibited. =
of hogs into Canada from the United
States are very strict. Hogs that
have been vaccinated by the double
method cannot be admitted. Hogs
coming from localities where there
has been cholera within the past SIX.
months are refused entrance. Hogs
which are not excluded for these rea-
sons are held in quarantine for one
month at the Canadian border before
being allowed to go to their destina-s
tion.-H. Preston Hopkins, Assistant
Veterinarian, University Farm, ST.:

study OF these plantations of different
ages and species and on various sit
uations cannot fail to be of intense
interest to educators, foresterS, 1unl-
hermen and tree planters. This trip
includes a drive OF several miles
through some OF the most beautiful
natural scenery in North Carolina and
consequently in the world, varied in
places by the highest art of the land
Scape architect.
The trip to Mt. Mitchell is abso-
lutely unique. The logging railroad
has only been built q short time and
never before, so far as it is known,
has any convention been given the
privilege of going over this road and
visiting the numbering operations in
connection with it. The railroad itself
is a marvel of engineering, while the
scenery through which it passes IS
unsurpassed in this county. The APP
palachian National Forest, bordering
this company'S property, can be VlSl-
ted, as we'll as the top of Mt. Mitchell,
the highest peak in eastern North
America, Sill feet high. To all North
CarolinianS this peak On which Pro
lessor Elisha Mitchell lost his life
has in addition to its scenic and com
mercial interest greatly added historic
interest. The railroad fare from
AshevilIe TO Black Mountain is forty
cents and this is the only expense in
cident to this trip. Delegates, how
ever, are asked TO provide their OWL
lunch, which will be eaten in tn
woods.

acres which are devoted to rice cul-
ture and general farming; the loss
has amounted to about $4,000, 900,
and Sc, 600 persons are in need OF
help, according to an official report
1T continues:

been unable to feed their babies and
have made a milk substituted u Of

a powder and miv with boiling wa

in search Of work, while the aged and
the children are left behind to freeze

trict whose wife was dying from star
walton and illness, stole d bale of po-
tatoes from his landlord.
The wife was grateful for the kind
ness of her husband, but said: Il dc
not wish to live any longer if it must
be on stolen food and urged him to
return the goods.
The husband, conscious-stricken
was carrying pack the potatoes WheL
he met the landowner. He confess.
ed his theft, and asked forgiveness.
The landowner was impressed b.
the sad story, and not only forgav.

RECALL POLICY


Ann Arbor Mich, June 23-'New
doctrines. crude, but dangerous, the
result not OF careful study and deer
thought, but largely of impulse, ana
a desire for something unusual, are
confidently promulgated and secure a
numerous following said President
H. B. Hutchins of the University of
Michigan, i'm the course of the bacca
laureate sermon which ne delivered
to nearly 1000 candidates for degrees
i'm Hill auditorium.
Il have in mind particularly the
doctrine of recall, as applied To judges
and the crude. bungling, unsettling.
unscientihc and i'm every respect un-
wise doctrine of the recall of judicial
decisions. 1t is not an exaggeration
To say that in much that is fundamen-
tai and essential, we have largely de-
parted from the original principles, as
worked out and promulgated by the
founders of our government, both
state and national and as practically
interpreted and successfully applied
through many years of remarkable
growth and development.
In Uncertain Field.
1--WE are again i'm the uncertain field
of experiment where apparently no
proposition is too absurd to receive
recognition If ii is only i'm the name
of progress and labeled as remedy
for some public i'll. The general re-
suit of it all is and probably will be
for some time to come, Co impose on
the people duties and obligations for
which the vast majority are in no way
prepared, either by training or by
temperament.
while | believe most thoroughly in
the plain people, in their loyalty and
patriotism, their desire for the right,
and in the wisdom of their decisions
where they are fitted by temperament
and experience ana instruction To de-
eide, yet ! recognize there are some
questions that because of their tech
nical and professional character, the
people can never he fitted to consider,
wisely and decide intelligently and
consistently. Generally, without in
struction and wise leadership, the
people are sure i'm these new fields to
make grave ana far-reaching mis-
takes.
Public conditions to which ! have
referred. should challenge the atten-
ton Of the young men and young wo-
men who are just entering on the ac-
tive affairs of life. Make ii an inn
pressive part of your duty to study
carefully and conscientiously the pub
lie questions that are pressing for
solution and the new and the revised
doctrines that are clamoring for rec
ignition"

NO QUORUM FOR COUNCIL.
ADJOURNED Meeting Scheduled For Las.
Evening Again Put OFF.

The Hancock common council failed
10 meet in adjourned session last
evening because of the lack of a quor-
uih' Mayor Opjala and four members
ot the council were present early but
aiter waiting until nearly . o'clock
'hey learned that the other four mem

work was started yesterday nj the
city hall on maps of the city's water
system one of which will he filed with
the state board of health, according To
= law passed by the last legislature.
For several weeks the engineering
department has been gathering sta
ustics, which were used in making a
map of the city's sewer system, the
law requiring that one of these mans
must also he filed with the state board
OF health. The sewer map was COM
pleted Saturday.
1t is not expected that the task of
making a map of the water system
VIII be as difficult as that of making
the sewer map. 1t was necessary to
go over the entire city for data on
the sewer system because since Han
cock became city no records of
sewer extensions were on file although
1t was generally supposed that the
city had all this information. The maps
and data covering the water system
are on file and the new map will not
be difficult drawing To make.

WILL BE INSPECTED AGAIN.
Hancock Naval Reserve Will Benefit
by Government Appropriation.

The Hancock naval reserve Will UNI
dergo another inspection this summer
The recent visit of Lieutenant Johnson
of the Chicago training station is to Dc
followed with an inspection by another
officer. although no date has yet been
set.
These inspections are due in meas
ure to an appropriation by the gov
eminent for the reserve of the differ
ent states, and of the sum already al
lowed Michigan will receive approx
mately $4,000 for the two battalions
This money will be deposited with an
officer whose duty it will he to see that
it is properly disbursed. The officer
will be placed under bonds for the
proper discharge of his duties. How
much of this money the upper PENN
sula battalion will receive is not
known.
The reserve is showing much in
terest i'm the annual cruise next Au-
gust, which will take them on trip
of several hundred miles on the Great
Lakes. owing To the nature of the
maneuvers planned for this year every
member of the Hancock division is
trying To arrange his vacation as to
be able To make the trip.
