said Johnson in reply to question
as to the outlook for the coming sea
son, 1T may not affect the Pacific
Coast League because the changes
made here seem to have strengthened
your league a great deal. Even the
American League should stand up well
this year. The clubs are strong and
at least four teams should be punched
at the top all year.

TO ATTRACT ATTENTION OF
CITY FATHERS.

There is to be no more smoking in
the City Council chamber during
working hours--at least during the
sessions of Common Council. This
edict went forth at the meeting last
Monday night. when Councilman Rog-
era, with his pocket full of matches
and not a cigar, moved that the rules
regarding smoking In the chamber be
enforced.
Before the city spent seven thousand
dollars In beautifying the Council
chamber Mr.. Rogers was the first to
move suspension of the rule. and
the first to light his cigar Mr.. HRddon
was the nrst to ignite the fnecut in
his pipe. and Colonel Joe Welsh was
the frst to putt on his cigarette

Councilman Pollock, In objecting to
the enforcement OF the rule. said he

member of Council with the request
that he vote for the rule. on the
grounds that some of his constituents
d,sapproved of the use OF tobacco, and
he wanted to have Council set the
example.

In the current issue Of Farm and

lished at Springfield, Ohio. d. 8. Burcal,
writing an interesting and useful ar
dele entitled. Fences That Laugh at
Father Time" tells what materials will
last the longest and cost the least. He
makes the point that fence posts that
have been treated with some form OF
preventative are OF special value and
ts1en he tells the following story OF
how Texas farmer got his posts:
Getting creosoted posts free OF
charge is not very common. but this Is
the way a homeseeker in Texas man
aged It. He noticed that discarded
railroad ties were burned to get them
out of the way. go he had his friend.
the section boss, save them for him.
In two years time he had fenced his
$40 acres, including several cross
fences using the old railroad ties for
posts. He cut away the rot, but nearly
always got strong post. for the ties
has been creosoted Some ties that
seemed soft and weak from soaking In
mud dried quickly and made perfectly
good posts"

Vaccinate Your Hogs When They Arc
Little.

Farm and Fireside, the national
farm paper published at Springfield,
Ohio Is presenting the facts about
the rivages of cholera. together with
the most practical suggestions as to
now farmers can escape the greatest
losses. On the subject of vaccination
for the disease, the curren article sets
forth, as follows. the reasons why II
ID cheaper for farmers TO vaccinate
hogs when they are small.
ITO do the cheapest good Job oil
vaccination. do II as soon as possible
alters the pigs weigh Atty pounds.
Give them the simultaneous treatment
at that time and. except in rare cases
the immunity will he good for life.
The bigger the hogs are when market
ed the less the vaccination will cost
you in proportion to their selling
price.
For example. we win say you
vacclnate 5o-pound pig as a cost
Iof 35 cents when that pig grows
up to weigh ESQ pounds won sell him
for $3.50. The cost of protecting that
pig against cholera Is only per cent
of the selling price according to plain
arithmetic.
Now suppose you vaccinate a 10e-
pound hog That will cost you at
least 60 cents If you sell that hog
at the weight of ITO pounds. and he
brings $1a, wour vaccination has cost
per cent of the selling price, WHOA
Is pretty high insurance. 1t Is SO
high that the expense would hardly
be tustified unless there was cholera
In the neighborhood and you were In
danger of losing your hogs.'
