Last season kainit sold for $11 to

Last season kainit sold for $11 to
$12 per ton at this time of the year.
This year the same product is bring
ing from $25 to $27 per ton, and
those who have it on hand are not
anxious to sell at this price.
About the only way to secure this
product at this time is to buy it in
mixed fertilizer. II is being used with
other materials so as to make the
quantity CT kainit as low as possible,
and various grades of commercial
fertilizers are being made. Farmers
of this section would be foolish, so
it has been stated, to pay the present
price for this product and use it for
fertilizer for their cotton crops.
Some substitute must be used and
as a result of the shortage of this
product the substitutes are bringing
better price. Stable manure is in
great demand and it is bringing bet
ter prices than have ever before been
recorded. There is only a limited
supply of stable manure and when
this is exhausted the fertilizer prob
lem will assume q serious aspect.

ALARMING THE GOVERNMENT
AGENTS ARE ACTIVE.
CAUSE: 90 PER CENT OF loss

Serious Epidemic i'll Thirty Years.
Hog Neglected Despite Fact IL Has
Frightened Millions OF Homes,
The enormous toll OF hog cholera,
reaching $65, 100000 in value in one
year, is so alarming that the govern
ments field agents, WORKING in har-
mony with the state agricultural col
leges, are especially active in com
batting the disease the country
over.
Dr.. J. E. Gibson, veterinary field
agent of the federal bureau OF animal
industry, declares that the hogs have
been neglected despite the fact that
the hog has frightened more homes,
put more carpets on the floors, more
music in the parlor and turned the
face of more boys and girls toward
colleges than any other one factor in
our entire economic fabric.
According to Dr.. Gibson so per
event of all the losses in hog raising
is caused by cholera. The country is
now passing through the third seri-
Gus epidemic in thirty years.

President Wilson'S annual message
to Congress, delivered yesterday,
dealt principally with preparedness.
Although he touched upon . variety
of topics, the predominating note of
the message was military and naval
preparedness for the purpose of de-
Tense and the upholding Of the Mon
roe doctrine.
Every Recommendation embodied
in the document had to do with COM
prehensive plans for strengthening
the national defense. The program
included the army and navy plans al
ready made public by Secretaries
Garrison and Daniels; legislation for
government owned merchant ships; .
rural credit law; the Philippine and
Porto Rico bills which failed of final
passage at the last session; conserva-
tion legislation; law giving federal
aid to industrial and vocational edu-
cation; and the creation of . COM
mission TO inquire into the transpor-
tation problem.
