HAULING SWINE IN SUMMER
Arrangement for Getting Hogs I
Market in liot Weather Should
Be Made In Advance.

Since there are many hogs lost

side. Not only the hot weather, but
wagon causes them to worry and over
aeat themselves,
Bolster springs on the wagon In
which hogs are marketed will greatly
diminish the danger from jolting.
Next, the floor of the wagon box
should be covered with leaves OF lit
ter of some kind and thoroughly
dampened with cool water before
starting on the trip to market. II
all but the lower box of the wagon
can be constructed of Stats, similar to
fence of boards, a free circulation
OF air Is established, which is of great
assistance in keeping the hogs cool.
After these precautions have been
taken, make sure that you do not
crowd the wagon and smother some
of the fatter animals; then cut some
green brush with heavy foliage, and
form a canopy over the load of hogs,
to protect them from the broiling sun.
Hang a bucket on the wagon, and
stop occasionally on the road TO mar
ket, splashing some water over the
animals and on the litter. Where the
hogs are pretty hot, however, it is
well to be careful in applying the
water.

ROAD
BUILDING
ROADS AS CROP PRODUCERS
Government Studies show How AerI-
cultural Outlook Of Country De-
psnds Upon Its Highways.

That an improved road will increase
vastly the productiveness Of the area
through which It runs has now been
satisfactorily demonstrated by studies
conducted by the United States depart
ment Of agriculture in Virginia. Con-
diuons In Spotsylvania county were in
vestigated with particular care. and
the results have proved surprising. In
1909 the county voted 100000 to i'm
prove 20 miles OF roads. Two years
after the completion Of this work the
railroad took away In IL months from
Fredericksburg, the county seat, IL.
900 tons of agricultural and forest
products hauled over the highways to
that town. Before the Improvement
Of the roads this total was only $4,000
tons annually; in other words the
quantity Of the county's produce had
risen more than as per cent Still
more interesting. however, is the In
crease shown In the quantity of the
dairy products. In 1909 these amount.
ed to 114,S15 pounds, In 1911 to 273,-
O2S pounds, an increase of practically
14O per cent in two years. In the
same time shipments Of wheat had in
creased SO per cent, tobacco 81 per
cent and lumber and other forest prod
ucts as per cent
In addition to this increase In guam
tity the cost of hauling each ton OF
produce was materially reduced. In
other words the farmers not only pro-
duce more but produce more cheaply,
for the cost Of transportation to mar
ket is, of course, an important factor
in the cost of production. From this
point Of view 1t is estimated that the
100000 spent in improving the roads
in Spotsylvania county saved the farm
ers Of that county 1000 a year.
In the past two years the traffic
studies of the federal experts show
that approximately an average of Co.
600 tons of outgoing products were
hauled over the improved roads in the
county, an average distance of eight
miles, or total of 100000 ton
miles" Before the roads were i'm
proved it was estimated that the aver
age cost of hauling was 20 cents a
''ton-mile;" after the improvement this

WHAT CAUSES HOG CHOLERA
Organism Apparently So Small That
Most Powerful Microscopes Fail
to Show II.

Hog cholera is caused by a germ
that exists in the blood. 1t is an or
ganism apparently 80 small that the
most powerful microscopes do not
show it. However, 1t is easy to demon
strate its presence by inoculating a
small part of the blood from a sick
hog into a well one, which produces
the hog cholera.
Hog cholera is a disease which
seems to be stopped to a degree BY
the frosts Of winter, although frost

HOW WE GET THE NEWS.

In her voice reproved us for not men

told her that she had not let US know
anything about II and that therefore.
we did not know that she had a visi-
tor. Then she said. "Well, you should
have known. I thought you were
running q newspaper" Wouldn't
that rattle your stats? Some people
think that an editor ought to be q
cross between Argus and Anna Eva

upon requests for records in the trial

were received of officials there from,

Clement is prisoner In the Spar

Clement "a pardon. II was said these

phia girl who made 5000 children
happy last Christmas and who Is push
ing big scheme for making many
times that number glad this year.
Through energy, persistence and an
unusually pleasing personality, Miss
Wilson has enlisted in her work the
cooperation of the city authorities and
OF people all over the country. Fol-
lowin Is an extract:
THE country knows OF Miss Will
son from the fact that she managed In
defiance OF law and precedent to get
the local Dostoffice authorities to de-
liver her all the letters addressed to
Santa Claus which came through the
mails, which have heretofore gone di-
rect to the dead letter office and
thence to the Junk men: and from the
further fact that ille has tried to get
from congress the frapking privilege
on all packages sent IN response to
these letters. In the latter respect
she has not been successful as yet,
but she has by no means given up
hope. Last December she went to
Washington on the matter. Knowing
no one, she called on Speaker Clark,
Secretary Bryan, Admiral Dewey. Os-
car Underwood, who surrend-
cred at once ad then she
hapuened to run across the
vice president, who was immed-
lately interested and secured her an
interview with the president. who is

Unfortunately the law does not
permit the president to give tho frank
ing privilege, or Miss Wilson would
have come home with 1t. No one can
resist her appeals. Finding that shs
could not possibly get her bill through
In time. Miss Wilson wasted no hours
in vain effort, but started in on the
Christmas work. From city mission
aries she secured additional names
until there were Eve Thousand on her
list. She sent out q circular letter to
thousands Of prominent men and wo-
ren all oxer the country, not asking
for money. but approval. She got
both. Ninety per cent. OF the letters
were answered. mostly with checks,
