cost is very large one in herd of
less of how thoroughly the hogs are
disinfected, many of the hogs will
escape the first application. Thus
numerous subsequent applications
are necessary These frequent appli-
cations are a great deal of trouble
and lot of extra expense, besides
hog needs to be oiled many, many
times when we feel that we ought to
be doing something else; consequent
ly he is neglected. And anyhow
what is the use of doing something
for the hog that the hog can be
made to do for himself?
My hogs were infested with lice
and nits when 1 put my oiler in the
lot, and now 1 would be almost will
ing to pay dollar each for every
louise found on them. The hog oil
ers on the market to-day are filling
long-felt want. They are doing
a great deal toward the eradication
of hog diseases.
These oilers or rubbing posts are
filled with the oil and set out in the
feed lot. Don't, be afraid the hog
will rub everywhere but on the oil
ers, because he will try it at first
sight. When the lice begin to
work upon the hog the hog will
have an itch. He will go to the
rubbing post to scratch, and as he
scratches the vermin destroying oil
will flow out right on the itch, kill
ing the lice, destroying the eggs and
healing the skin of mango, scuryey
and other skin diseases.

on the hog is practically the same
as an infection of lice, and thus the
treatment is the same.
Lice and mango in hogs are the
forerunners of cholera. Out of every
ten hogs in tle United States died
last year from cholera. 1t has been
found that the greater percentage of
all hogs that die from cholera have
been found infested with lice. These
bIood-sucking individuals cause such
drain on the animals that they
fairly sap the vitality of the hogs,
and thus the animal an eacy prey
for an infectious germ.
1t has been truthfully said that
necessity is the mother of invention.
Thus we can account for the pres
ent hog oilers which have proven SO
successful on thousands of hog
farms as lice and mango eradicators.
About two months ago l wrote to
five or six hog oiler manufacturers
and received their circulars showing
construction and method of opera
ton, and believing the Nobby hog
oiler, made by the Sherman Hog
Greaser Co. of Peoria, ILL.,, the most
practical, 1 decided to install one,
and l believe it to be worth one hum
dred dollars to any hog raiser. l
am so well pleased with it that for
the benefit of the hog raisers of
Obion County 1 insisted of my deal
er to put them in stock.
The method of applying disin-
fectants by means of sprinklers or
spray pumps is no longer used on
many modern farms. In applying
the oil with this method it is almost
impossible to get it thoroughly into
the hair and skin. Another disad-
vantage in using the spray pumps is
the cost of application. The first

Lice, Mango and Hog Oilers.
By Harry 10 Naylor.

One of the most efficient ways of
wasting money on the farm is to
feed eighty cent corn to a bunch of
lousy or NANCY hogs. The man who
feeds lousy hogs is doing a lot for
the louise family, but not very much
for the hogs, or his bank account
Lice and mango are enemies of
growth and consequently enemies of
hog profits.
No matter how good the ration
which a hog receives, nor how much
of it, he cannot make steady gains
when infested with lice. Hogs have
no time to grow when infested with
these little parasites. They spend
half their time scratching and the
other half thinking about it, When
a mans herd becomes infested with
lice it is most provoking to say the
least. But the experienced breeder
has found that it is mighty Sc
rious proposition because the job of
eradication requires a lot of pains
taking effort
The hog louise is most annoying
individual. 1t wisely selects that
part of the hog where the skin is
the thinnest and here it lives and
derives its nourishment. 1t causes
a most severe drain upon the animal
and is often the cause of great
losses.
What we know as mango in hogs
is caused by the tiny parasites which
burrow under the surface of the
skin, causing scabs to form, accom-
panied by severe itching. Scurvinest
is a resulting product of the mango
organism. The final effect of mango

Football Squad Honored

Besides honorable mention and hard earned scars on the gridiron, there are many other attractions for our football squad. Last Thursday eve ming Mir. and Mrs. c. D. Thorpe proved themselves delightful hosts in honor of the teams celebration of their re- lease from the training table.
 Their efforts in working hard to put Flagstaff on the map in athletic cir cles were well rewarded. A most at tractive table with places for twenty two guests carried out color scheme of yellow and green which showed prettily under the softly shaded lights. Miniature footballs marked the places for each guest and also bore the photographs and sobriquet of each.
 A sumptuous turkey dinner left the agreeable impression with the team that one of their hosts at least could think along the lines of indoor sports as well. Others than the team and subs enjoying this occasion were Dr. and Mrs. Blome, Mir. and Mrs. Latin rop, while assisting were the Misses Blome, Jones and Stemmons.

Wilder. Her stage presence was par ticularly good-showing ease and grace-two essential points in inter esting an audience.
 Miss Mary Rickel next gave the pathetic little selection from Charles Dickens'--one we all love so much "The Death of Little Nell"
 Following came Miss Ruth Louder milk in the clever adoption of the "Ruggles Christmas" Miss Louder milk was handicapped by noticeable hoarseness which naturally detracted from an otherwise well renderod pro duction.
 Miss Iris Robertson then gave the spirited "Herve Riel'' of Robert Browning and seemed to interpret the poets meaning in a fitting manner.
 Following, Miss Mary Hanley rem dered in pleasing style Longfelow's Robert of Sicily"
 The arena scene from Quo Vadis" next held the attention of the au- dience, given by Miss Eleanor Ro- berts. This is strong selection and Miss Roberts entered into it with whole heartedness.
 The closing number of the contest was one we'll suited to Miss Elsie Jordan "The Hoosier's Romance"-of course a humorous one by Riley. Miss Jordan manifested her ease by giving her selection without break.
 The closing number by the orchestra permitted the judges to retire for comparison of notes after which the winners were announced. Miss Ro- berts it seems was unanimously awarded first place, Miss Jordan sec ond while Miss Lowdermilk and Miss Robertson tied for third place. For tunately the unsatisfactory way of drawing was disposed of and each young lady not only was entitled to but received a prize.

The poor fellows lum- bered through their meal of meat pies and coffee without a word Then all at once huge Christmas pudding, wreathed in holly and flaming with burning brandy, was brought into the hall. When they saw it deep gasp of joy burst from the assembled crowd and the whole company of them rose as one man and greeted the joy ful sight with the quavering strains of "Auld Lang Syne." It was the most touching tribute to the power of the Christmas pudding that I ever wit messed.
