important Thing Is to Recognize Ola

1t Is estimated that at least 80 per

case In the United States are caused
by hog cholera. Therefore, La the case

The symptoms exhibited BY hogs

can be made except through u careful

hogs thai are already visibly sick
The following suggestions TO farm
ers are offered as an aid to the early
recognition Of hog cholera In a herd:
/. Keep posted concerning the con.
ditfon and health OF hogs on other
farms In your neighborhood. Sick hogs
on a neighboring farm are a positive
menace, for the germs Of hog cholera
are easily carried on the feet of men
or animals.
2. Look over your herd regularly IN
order that any sick hogs may ba
promptly discovered.
J. II any hogs in the herd are found
to be "off feed or appear In anywise
sick. separate them Immediately from
the remainder of the herd, and keep
them and the main herd under close
observation daily. II there Is q ten.

A mad world will perhaps be the
final outcome If the recent statistics
on lnnacy in England continue at the
present rate of increase. One -erson

officially declared to be insane by the

issued recently These figures show
that the total number OF insane people

counsel and succor of Almighty God,
humhling ourselves before Him, con-
Tossing our weakness and our lack of
any wisdom equal 10 these things;

peace;
Therefore, |. Woodrow Wilson,
