TALKS ON THRIFT
Bringing Up Children

There is but one thing women can do now and that is tu choose foodstuffs carefully, cook them to the best advan- taee and disseminate their knowledge of right eating and living among those who are not so well informed. Hen rietta D. Grauel.
 A mother who is bringing up fam ilv of nine children in these times ought to know a good deal about how to manage, and her experience should be of value to others, even to those with much smaller families. There IS such family i'll Minne- sota city (there are seven girls and two boys, ranging in age from to 24). The mother gives some facts about her domestic arrangements which are very interesting. They are summarized as follows:
 FOOD-Saving is considered to be largely wise buying. So there is no hand to- mouth buying in this family.
 A cement walled and floored cold stor-
 age room in the cellar makes possible
 the purchase of thirty bushels of pota-
 toes when they are cheapest. Propor- tionate quantities of cabbages, beets, turnips, carrots, celery. etc, are also
 bought and stored at the proper time.

Motoring Public More Ap- preciative of Valley Tour ing Since Cool, Damp Weather Came, Bringing Reduction of Dust Evils

A snap in the atmosphere that is the only indication winter is here, has not lessened the motorists pleasure in cir cling the city on some of the valley $ better roads-rather, it has increased it-and the practice of sightseeing by automobile and motorcycle has grown within the past few weeks.
 on q Sunday afternoon like yester- day-the motoring population took. al most unanimously, to the highways and byWays and such favorite thor "ltghfares as Central avenue and the Mcdowell load were literally black with automobiles There are many good places to go. In spite of the pessimis Tie remark of the fellow who has seen the half dozen or so outstanding scenic features of the valley, there are within easy riding distance of the city a hundred interesting things. The south side of the river has been too long neglected as q sightseeing region, but, fortunately, the populace is com ing tG know the many quiet paths that lead to nice farmsides and impressive wayside scenes.
 The chaps who took the corduroy ont of Central avenue boulevard be- tween the McDowel road and the little canal have done great deal to stimu- late motoring out north A mighty pleasant drive is now out to the Coun- try club. west along the Arizona canal toward Glendale, and back-either on Northern or Grand avenue. Of course the latter is still q bugbear. but really it's net so bad as it used to be And besides. there are a score of alterna tives-including the roads south ot Glendale to Alhambra, north, leaving the sugar factory on the right, and all the zig-zag courses between the two.

FEDERAL COOPERATION IN
 ROAD MAKING ENDORSED

That exactly the same reason does not exist in the several states for the improvement of their roads was set forth in the unanimously adopted of the American Road Congress just held in Atlanta. Ga, with the larg- est attendance ever attracted to higways meeting.
 With delegates from all over the country it naturally followed that federal aid in good roads called for much attention in the deliberations of the congress. accentuated by the fact that the American Automobile Association cooperated with the American Highway Association in the conduct of the notable gathering
 Chairman ". Tom Vim of the resolutions committee presented this reference to Federal Co-operation: .
 Resolved, That the American Road Congress emphatically endorses the principle of Federal Cooperation to- ward the construction of main high ways, and thus assist the several states to build the main market roads in the one-half of the country which is devoted to agriculture and
 to build through main roads in the ! one-half of the country which is not predominantly agricultural. but whose prosperity depends upon min ing, the raising of live stock, and the

 roads hoard. and the Missouri repre- i sentative thus summed up the situa- l ton: Tt is easy enough to shout i good roads and to convey the adroit ! impression on the minds of every
 hill farmer that he will have the
 road pass his place; but when we get down to practical business we will ! find that only a very limited per
 centage can ever be improved to a
 high condition and that these roads must be the ones which will serve l the greatest number of people. IL i is very easy to defeat the whole plan by appeals to the prejudices of
 those voters who would be led to
 believe that they will get no direct
 benefit from the roads. It is possi-
 ble even to inflame them to high in
 dignation against the people whom they think will he benefited
 Tt will be necessary in my judg-
 ment to classify all existing high ways into at least three classifica- tions The first is the great cross ing into every county in the state,
 and opening up every section to the
 benefits of the improved land values, freer social intercourse, and higher | intellectual life The second is the main feeders or great country roads;
 and third, the byroads, local roads or lanes. These various classes of maintained with view to the amount of traffic that they can bear and must bear The first class should be of the most permanent and scien tific construction. The second class could be of d less expensive nature and would need less maintenance The third class could be improved only 10 the extent that the com
 munity required. The expense oi building and maintaining these roads should be distributed upon the same

risk of contagion from hog cholera
with anti-hog cholera serum has
saved all but 2.27 per cent in the South
ern states, according to reports received
by the U. S. Department of Agriculture
from local agents engaged in demonstra-
tion work in this section.
These reports show that the county
agents inoeulated,. in tho year ending
June 80, 1914, total of 1886 hogs
that were in good health at the time,
but were exposed to the disease. Of
this number only 7S7 died. This loss of
2.27 per cent is regarded as highly
gratifying evidence of the value of the
preventive treatment with anti hog
cholera serum.
Although many authorities do not
recommend this treatment after the hog
is so sick that signs of the disease are
plainly visible, the agents in many cases
took "fighting chance" The results
would seem, on the whole, to have been
very satisfactory. Including sick and
well animals, grand total Of 41,97e
hogs exposed to the disease received the
serum. OF these, 1904 died, a percent.

by trained experts in laboratories. In
addition, a very large number of hogs
were inoculated by veterinarians or by
farmers themselves. In these eases no
figures are available to show the exact
results Of the treatment.
Department experts also point out,
however, that incubation alone is not
sufficient and does not remove the
necessity for sanitary and other precau-
tions; for example, hogs should be fed
for few days after the treatment on
cooling laxative foods. They should be
removed to uninfected and clean pens
where there is plenty of shade, and care
should be taken to free them from lice
and worms. Since many hogs are worm
infested, the following formula, which
has been used by local agents through
out the South with considerable success,
is suggested by the Kentucky Expert
ment Station
Santonin ............2s grains
Areca nut. dram
Calomel ...............1 grain
Sodium carbonate. .....1 dram
This is a sufficient quantity for each
100 pounds of live weight. The dose
should be given in slop in the evenir g,
after the hogs have been without food
for from IL to "a hours. The follow
ing morning each hog should receive

the hog uses 275 pounds of dry food
