Of the disease. but It will not, be Of
much avail when used upon hogs that
are already visibly sick.
o~usssstisns 20 Farmers
THE following suggestions to far
mers are offered "a an aid 70 the early
recognition Of hog cholera in q herd:
l. keep posted concerning. the con-
dition and health Of hogs on other
farms in your neighborhood. Sick hogs
on q n%eighboring farm are q 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 hat any sick hogs may be
promptly discovered.
8 III any hogs in the herd are found
to be of 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 y ten
dency for the disease to spread In the
herd the trouble Is probably hog chol
era. This diagnosis may be confirmed
by killing one of the sick animals and
examining the rgans in the manner
described in Farmers Bulletin $40.
4. when the first symptoms OF
sickness are observed an Immediate
change of feed sometimes corrects the
trouble. This is particularly true OF
swill fed hogs.
5. IF there is any tendency for the
disease to spread in the herd do not
temporize, but Immediately treat the
herd with serum from the State College
or State Live Stock Sanitary Board.
Prompt administration Of the serum is
essential to success.
Z. Remember that hog cholera kills
millions Of hogs where other diseases
kill thousands. Dismiss from your
mind all thought Of such diseases ae
lung plague infectious pneumonia.
pig typhoid ETC., for these. are gen.
orally merely fanciful designations
given to hog cholera by uninformed
men,"

IOWA MINES MAY CLOSE.
II Workers Insist on Wage Increase
Operators Will Shut Down.

operators Will smut Down..
Des Moines. Feb. 5.-There will be M
suspension Of operations of Iowa Goa
mines pending a renewal Of the blen
NAL agreement between the mine own
ers and the unions Of the state. accord
ing to a statement issued this morning
by EG Sweeney, state mine inspector
today.
THE mine workers in their. conven
ton which adjourned at Indianapolis
yesterday asked an advance of :
cents per ton for mining said Mr.
Sweeney. "but. l do not think there viii
be any action. taken at this time by
Iowa miners. The present agreement
will expire April l.. a meeting. will be
held in Des Moines, March 10, at which
the mine operators and tae. heads OF
the miners unions will endeavor to get
together on an agreement for the com
ing biennial period.
Y see no reason for an advance in
the retail price Of coal even if the )
cents per ton increase is granted the
workers. I believe the operators will
grant the increase. The mines en-
ploying union labor can not afford to
suspend, for it would be giving the
n%on-union mines an opportunity to Sc
cure an additional part Of their busi-
ness"
Coal operators the country over
claim they are in the poorest condi-
ton in years to grant an increase in
wages to the miners in the opinion OF
Des Moines dealers. If the unions in
sist upon a fiat increase of 5 cents q
ton on the mine run basis and a 10 per
cent Increase on dead work az outlined
at Indianapolis. it will mean a Ions
hard fight according to the dealers.
Operators advance several reasons
why wage scale should not be mater
tally raised and why the miners should
not insist upon asking 1t. They are as
follows:
Consumption Of coal has not kept up
with production owing to thelmild win
ter. Operators have suffered by carry
ing an over-supply and miners have
suffered by unsteady work.
Railroad demands have been un-
usually light as it takes far less coal
to keep up the necessary steam In the
engines in mild weather.
Consumers are already complaining
Of the high price Of coal and there Is
little chance Of advancement which is
always necessary when wages are in
creased.
Dealers are divided as to the effect
Of the recommendation made at In
dianapolis which provides that in case
an agreement is not reached when the
present contracts expire April 1 the
men shall continue work indefinitely.
II 1t is found that no agreement can
be reached, 1t is suggested the men
strike outright. In the past it has been
customary to suspend work April 1

Special to Times Republican.
Washington, Feb. 6-The department,
Of agriculture is in receipt of frequent
inquiries concerning methods of dis
tinguishing hog cholera from other
swine diseases. The specialists in hcs
cholera Investigation answer these in
quiries as follows:
Attic at first thought this matter
of diagnosis appears to be of prime
Importance, in reality it is not SO i'm
portant or so difficult as it seems. It
Is estimated that at least 80 per cent
OF all deaths Of hogs from disease in
n United States are caused by
cholera. Therefore, in the case of any
fatal outbreak. the chances are about
nine to one that the cause is hog
cholera. 1t ts true that other infec-
tons may and do frequently complicate
outbreaks of hog cholera, but in such
cases the germ of hog cholera is the
primary cause Of the disease; and if
We can take care of the germ of hog
cholera the pig will usually overcome
the other infections himself.
Symptoms lndistinet.
n symptoms exhibited by hogs
sick Of hog cholera are not sufficiently
distinct from those produced by other
maladies so that a positive diagnosis
can be made only through. a careful
consideration Of a number Of other
factors with the symptoms. From a
practical standpoint the important
thing is to recognize hog cholera as
soon as possible after its appearance in
a herd in order that anti-hog-cholera
serum may be applied before the
disease progresses toe far. Good serum
may be depended upon to protect well
hogs, and even to cure a large per-
centage Of those in the earliest stages

10Y Scouts on Picket Duty

In the wake of an easterly squat
the sloop Arrow, Samuel Vinton mas
ter and owner, was making her way
along the low coast southwark from
Snip Point, Florida bay about twelve
miles northeast of Key West.
With every sail close-hauled and
drawing until the bolt ropes creaked
under the strain. the Arrow laid a
fairly straight course toward Key
West. She bore startling message,
the nature of which her captain had
considered of sufficient Importance
for him TO prolong a cruise he had
undertaken and to hasten back to the
port whence he had sailed, twenty
four hours previously, to inform the
authorities.
The sloop had sped far from the
point, and the receding shore line had
scarcely grown dimly blue on the
horizon under a peculiar yellow-gray
sunrise, when Captain Ninton's crew
began to make their appearance on
deck They consisted of five boy
scouts, an older companion who was
in charge of them, and Seminole
Indian guide called Dave, who had
been hired to conduct the boys on a
brief exploration of the Everglades.
Four of the boys belonged to a troop
of scouts who had their summer
headquarters at Pioneer camp, lar
away around the New England hills.
They had however, formed a reso-
luton to spend the present summer
at Pioneer camp, where most OF their
