WAR ON HOG CHOLERA.
What Department or Agriculturc /
Doing to Md Farmers.

Washington, Jan. 2p--Thc depart
mcut of agriculture. during the pas,
year. has been conducting campaigns
in Indiana. Missouri. Iowa and Ne
cioska to control the contagious dis
cdse of hogs known as hog cho!-
era lay means of auti~hog- cholera Sc
rum and farm duarantiues. In on-
county Pcttis county, MEssourD where
there was a loss of l. per cent in
1911 and 25.G per cent in 1912 of al,
t'gS raised. there was only a loss
pf li.7 per cent up t. November
1918. This decrease was due to the
GSc of the serum. which. although not
used there by the departments agents
iatil August, 1913, materially reduc-
cd the loss About 10000 hogs we're
raised during the past year and of
the 10000 that died of the hog chol-
era only about 1000 were lost after
the active use of serum and quaran-
tine measures were inaugurated.
In every county where these meas
urcS were employed, even though be-
sun after the disease had continued
It's raVagcs Tor some time, there was
less loss from hog cholera than i'm
either OF the two preceding years.
In addition to its great function as
"a ffxs.. "a
the nti-hoG-cholera serum would
cure a large proportion of hogs i'm
the early stages of the disease and
render them immune after recovery.
However, if hogs are not treated by
this serum, from 75 To 100 per cent
of all affected herds, die. This Sc
rum, SO far as is known lis the only
thing that will prevent the disease.
OF hogs actually sick when treated,
the departments inspectors lost but
20 per cent during the past summer.
OF well hogs i'm diseased herds, 2.S
per cent died after being treated and
Of hogs in exposed herds less than 1
FER cent died after being inoculated
with the serum. In an infected herd
there is always a certain proportion
o. hogs that are well.
The Inspector examines the hogs
when he arrives, takes the tempera-
ture of all hogs in the herd and sepa-
rates the sick from the well. The
temperature is an indication Of the
sickness. The temperature of a sick
hog, unless the hog is near death. will
run above 1O4 degrees and sometimes
as high as 107 degrees or los de-
grees T..
Some states are engaged in the
manufacture of serum to cure this
disease. This serum requires special
treatment 90 preserve its quality and
a qualified man to produce it. SufIi-

ion bill passed by Congress pro- vldes no payment to the railroads beyond the provision already made that five per cent, might be added to the pay of railroads on which there had been a weigh ing since January 1st. 1913
 At time when the Interstate Commerce Commission is insist l"G tHaf the Railroads shall make a fair charge for every service rendered, it seems in the high- est degree unjust that no provis- ion should be made adequately to c mpensate the railroads for pro- viding and operating the trans portation machinery without the ma service would be practically i'm ,ossiil..

HOW ID ROOT,.R0SES

A we pass thro9gh the cDgr- try we find so many bones that are desolate ard bare just be- cause the housewife hasn't time to piznta few flowers or shr9bs-
 These very nomes could be made attractive by planting some roses. Roses can.be rooted from cuttings and this will not cost anything except your labor. Whel you get your cuttings select t1e ones that have bloomed this 2 -ason; strip them from the bush never cut 20 they have tue boot at the end
 Dig a trench the depth of a half gallon frUi. Jar O. deeper. Fill one fourth of tlte'trench with surface soil. set the cuttings a I1t eight inches apart and press toz soil firmly around them. Pace an old fruit ar Or wide mJ1th bottleloyer each cutting. Fiji the trench so that only the bottom of the Jar ls visible. The jars protect them from severe weather and the plants receive the sunlight through the bottom Of the jars.
 Roses that are treated this way n the fall or winter are ready to be transplanted to their permar- eat place in May or June. Trans planting is the lmost difficult work. as the plants are-so young and tender. They. should be placed in some rich isoil. but do not use any manure in direct contact with the .plant, '..as this often injures the -r0ots. The manure shouldlbeisapplied grad ually az the plants become &C., customed to.-theih::new place. Protect them from.the direct sun rays for a feT days after trans planting.
 Roses require a lgood deal of water. The Iaundry..water is very good for them, and especial | the soap suds. When once you get them started you will have roses until frost.

INTERVIEW BY 0. H, Hflbl6

Congress has passed the Bill providing for the expenditures of the Post Office Department for the next fiscal year. This Bill, however. fails once more to com pensate the railroads for carry ing the parcel post. The Bill is based upon estimates of the Post Office Departmentthat next year the parcel post will handle 6Q0. 900. 900 packages yielding a re- venue to the Post Office of SO - 0O0.0 GOO.
 The Postmaster General in his annual repost of December l, 1913 stated that in view of the Ino ST ,tlve 'prodigious growth" oi the.parcel post, the railroads of course, Twill become entitled 10 a ldi,ional tccmpensation for this extra service imposed upon them and the Department IS engag q i1 gathering all statistical data n necessary for ascertaning q cor rect basis fixing a just, fair, and adequate compensation for the ] service rendered
 On. February l7th, the Rail roads Committee was advised by tae Post Office Department that 1t had made recommendation to C )ngress that on account of the increased weight of maiis" due to the parcel post, the Postmaster General should be authorized to add to the compensation of the railroads not more than one half of one per cent.
 This recommendation would have added only $254, GOO to the mail pay Of all the railroads in the United States.
 Congress took no action on the recommendation evidently con sidering the proposal too trival for consideration, and preferring to await the recommendation of the Joint Congressional Com mittee now Investigating the whole subject.
 In Great Britian the railways receive 5 per cent of the revenue from the pare l post. Before he establishment of the parcel .oSt the railroads in this country L eceived for transporting the mai s at leest one.ffth of the
