ANTI-HOG CHOLERA
SERUM TO FARME RS
Department of Agriculture Been
Endeavoring for Years to Pre-
vent Spread OF Disease.

The United States department Of
agriculture has been engaged contin-
uously for more than 25 years in en-
deavoring to discover some method of
preventing or curing hog cholera. AS
is now quite generally known, these
experiments of the department finally
resulted in the discovery of serum
that will prevent the disease when
properly prepared and administered
The results of these experiments of
the department of agriculture were
brought to the attention of the author
tiles in all of the states, and as a re-
suit approximately 80 different states
are engaged in the distribution of anti.
Log-cholera serum to farmers.
This work has undoubtedly resulted
in great saving to the indigidual
farmer, but it has not resulted in the
of the disease in the country as
whole. The department of agricul-
ture believes. that with this serum to
use as basis, countrywide cam
paign, looking to the elimination or
control of hog cholera should be un-
dertaken Congress has recognized
the Importance of such work by an
appropriation of $4,000. This appro-
priation authorizes the department of
agriculture to demonstrate the best
methods of controlling hog cholera
and the work thus authorized has al
ready begun, although, owing to the
small amount of money available, it 10
necessarily restricted to few local
tiles.

lions We're matters of almost daily
occurrence. There are records of de
clines of fifty cents per hundredweight
in prices within an hour. The large
western shipper was obliged to fore
stall such ruinous conditions. This
was done by establishing feeding sta.
tons on the railway lines tributary to
Chicago from the west Most of these
are owned and controlled by the rail.
road companies. The large shipper
consigns his sheep to some one Of
these feeding stations and then awaits
the advice of his commission firm as
to the number of sheep and the time
he shall send them to market.
A shipment of say twenty thousand
sheep is thus distributed over a period
of week or ten days instead of all
being dumped on the market on the
same day. Since from sixty-five to

to the feeding stations. it can readily
be seen how much they aid in prevent
ing market Cutting. The record run
of sheep on the Chicago market for
one day is about 10000 and a run OF
10000 is considered very heavy, but
were it not for the feeding stations it
is claimed that there would frequently
be days when the run would be nearer
100000 head.

Powder Puffs for the Purse.

Little crocheted powder puffs are
the latest novelty for the purse. They
can easily be made at home.
Crochet two circular pieces about
the size of a silver dollar out of mer-
cerized cotton of any shade desired.
Carefully sew them together. leaving
small openings through which to pour
in the powder. Fill the bag full with
the powder, so that it will sift through
easily when patted gently on the face:
Then make pretty edge around the
circular piece by crocheting few
rows of plain chain stitch, each added
row to be caught into the middle Of
the preceding one, which gives a sort
of ruffe effect. An opening can safe
ly be made by cutting stitch or two
when it is necessary to refill the putt.

Hail to the Chief

Jones had not wanted to go to the
gregarious feast where the speeches
strung out endlessly. Circumstances
obliged him to stay. The speeches
were strung out partly because the
chiefest and dullest orator was not
expected until late. Finally he came.
and there was a rush of committee
men to escort him to his place.

ion, what is that they are making
such pother about?"
