the names OF which are obscure and
hard to remember. but visible there was
long white dress pinned at the bottom.
to protect the woolen- -sock-covered toes.
Then, on top OF that, there was a white
knit Jacket with a blue edge: that is, blue
wool had been woven into the fabric
around the edge, and this coat was
pinned In place. But the remarkable and
most unusual feature OF this case" was
that a thick blue and white down quilt,
with flower design, and worth several
dollars, covered the baby entirely. head
and all, and the opening left for the child
TO breathe through was as deftly ar
ranged as any trained nurse could have
done II.
In short, nothing had been left un-
done to insure that baby from catching
cold, granting, OF course, that the neces-
sary problem seemed to some one to be
the question of leaving Il out at all on
such night. But even the house was
carefully chosen as the best for Today
old babies, for Mr. Carrolls house has a
porch, and so the rain could at worst
only send a few casual drops upon the
quilt.
Mr.. Carroll took the child in and tele-
phoned for the police, and the boy, who
is quite fat and has blue eyes, was
finally sent to the Philadelphia Hospital
The search for the parents was, as usual,
futile. The nurses at the hospital said
the child was pretty.

 The double method consists of using serum and a small quantity of hog cholera virus (blood taken from a hog about to die from cholera) The dou- ble method usually produces immunity against cholera for life.
 In using the double treatment con- siderable caution should be used A veterinarian should be summoned as there is danger of producing hog chol- era if the doses are not properly given. If eases are brought to the al tention of the state veterinarian i'm mediate aid will be given.

TREATING OATS FOR SMUT
Mixture Of FormaIdehyde and Water a Practical and Effective Method.

Seed oats this spring must be treated for smut Nearly all spring oats last year smutted badly and all seed now available are probably badly infested. Treat the seed with formal dehyde and avoid loss from smut.
 l. Mix one pound tone pint of for maldehyde with forty gallons of water in a large size barrel.
 2. Put a bushel or more of oats IT. two bushel bag Ga cheap gunny sacl. of very coarse open materiaD.
 3. Dip bag and oats into the solu. tion and shake up and down until all oats are thoroughly wet Elevate and drain.
 4. Allow the oats to remain in the bag for about two hours, or empty ID heap and leave for about two hours.
 5. Spread them out to dry. When nearly dry, drying may be hastened by sprinkling them with thoroughly air slaked lime.
 6. Sow about ten per cent more per acre to allow for the swelling
 2. The machinery and receptaclec to be used in handling the oats after they are treated should first be thor oughly cleaned with the solution.
 Note. Mix the solution just before using. Apply the treatment just be- fore seeding.
 For convenience, a pulley may be arranged directly over the open end of the barrel and through it a rope can be used for dipping, shaking and draining the bags of oats.
 Another method sometimes used in treating seed with formaldehyde, con- sists of spreading the seed out in three-inch layer on a smooth, clean floor, sprinkling them with the soiu- tion, and then shoveling back and forth to insure contact of all seed with the solution. The treated seed are then shoveled into pile and GOV cred with sacks or canvass to keen the gas enclosed. After six or eight hours the covers are removed and the oats spread out to dry

EVERY HOC RAISER KNOWS
 CHOLERA |S CONTAGIOUS

Methods of Prevention and Cure-Sin-
 gle and Double Treatment With An
 ti-Hog Cholera Serum Properly
 Given Effective.
 Every hog raiser knows that hog cholera is contagious and infectious disease. If no germs were brought into the herd there would be no hog cholera. The germs are frequently carried by dogs. birds, the feet of peo- pie, wagon wheels and running water. All new hogs brought on the farm should be quarantined 30 days before they are allowed to run with other hogs. In cases of death by hog cholera all carcasses should be burned. Quick lime is a good disinfectant, and can easily be scattered about the hog lots. Another effective disinfectant is six ounce solution of U. s. P. creolin to one gallon of water.
 If hog cholera is in the herds of the neighborhood, vaccinate at once with antihog cholera serum. This will not SuAU tlC dlScdSt Uul VIII pISNShl tHC healthy hogs from becoming infected.
 There are two methods of vaccina- tion, the single tor serum alone) and the double Cor simultaneously methods. By using the serum alone method, there is no danger of infecting healthy hogs with cholera.
