HOG WORMS AND
THE REMEDY

While not as common as lice
worms are quite prevalent among the
swine of the Minidoka project.
The most common worm found in
the project is the hound worm which
lives In the small intestine. This is
pinkish or yellowish white worm
from to IL inches long.
Other worms affecting swine are
the thorn headed worm usually found
in the small intestine, and pin worm
living the large intestine and the
whipworm usually found in the cae-
cum or first part of the large intes-
tine. OF these the pin worm is the
most common. There is also kid
ney and lung worm, the latter being
quite common.
The presence of intestinal worws
may be suspected if the pigs cough
and their skins are dry, hard and
scurfy. There is a varying appetite
and if badly infected, loss of weight
There may be vomiting and suffering
from alternate constipation and diar-
rhea. The rule Of some of our best
swine growers 'if pigs are not thrifty
and the cause cannot be determined,
treat for worms" is good advice and
worth following. BY carefully exam
ing the excrement the presence of
worms can usually be determined.
In numerous cases, post mortems
for suspected cases of cholera show
the trouble to be due to worms.
Well kept and we'll fed hogs as
rule are not subject to worms, that Is
the worms are unable to gain foot
hold. A herd Of hogs kept in clean
yards, fed a we'll balanced ration and
having access to a mixture of the min
erals recommended in this paper last
winter will never be badly infested.
If pumpkins are fed the seeds are
good to drive out the worms.
The average herd of hogs is kept
under such conditions it is usually
necessary to treat for worms at least
once a year. Stagnant ponds in
which the hogs wallow and from
which they must drink is one of the
most common methods of passing the
worms to each generation. Dirty pens
and pasture lots should not be used
for pigs Feeding in dirty yards OF
on floors where there are the drop
pings of hogs should not be practised
The drinking water should be pure.
For the lung and kidney worm the
treatment is entirely preventative.
Because of their location no treat
ment is successful after hog is once
For all kinds of intestinal worms
The treatment is practically the same.
While there are numerous remedies |
such as copperas, turpentine and the |
ike, the following is the best:
Have the druggist mix up powders
of grains calomel and grains san
.onin
Starve the pigs for at least twelve
hours, or better, twenty-four hours |
Mix up a little damp feed with a
powder in each portion.
Give one powder to each 80 pounds
If pig, that is, give one-half a powder
o each 40 pound pig and three pow
iers to each $50 pound hog.
Turn the pigs in to the feed, few
It time 80 that each will get the
correct amount.
Give a dose of Epson salts to each
log to carry off the worms.

RECOLLECTIONS OF
A PIONEER MINER

(lnS 1OllOWlng personal remlnlS-
censes of a pioneer, contained in a re-
cent issue of the American Falls
Press, will be of general interest to
old-timers and others.) John Calder
discovered gold at Bonanza Bar and
located the first claim there When
! returned from Albion in the spring
of 1878, found Calder located on a
sandbar near the Albert place. He
had come in a short time before, COM
ing up the river.
Calder told me about finding gold,
and at his suggestion. myself and
four others, Ira Parks, Bill Langley
Captain Hawley and Jack Davis. all
of the country, made filings on 20
acres each. Parks was the son of the
man who had let me have house to
live in the previous winter, when
was driven out of the bottom the
winter before.
A short time later Calder came up
to me saying that Charley Lane
wanted to buy the claims.
Lane was a character and attract
ed everywhere he went. He had a
ranch on Goose creek, near Burley,
at the time he bought the placer
property, and was distressingly poor.
He had been living at Goose Greek
since about 1872, five years before
came here, and was one of the very
first to locate in Snake river valley
above Boise.
Lane consulted Spirits" who told
him to look for gold at Bonanza Bar
This was the sole reason for making
the purchase. After the deal was
closed he started to walk from Bo-
nanza Bar to Kelton, Utah, to take
a train to San Francisco.
In few weeks Lane was back, well
dressed, bringing equipment to ope-
rate the mine, with money in his
pocket, and a wagon load of the best
eatables to be had in San Francisco
lOI MS ldully.
He operated the placers for a short
time, taking out considerable gold.
He then went to New York City,
where he sold the placers to com
pany of Italians for 100000, cash.
This was the beginning of placer
mining on the bars near American
Falls, which was continued for sew
eral years with varying success. Hun
dreds of thousands Of dollars have
been yielded by these bars, but In
many the expense of recovering the
gold was as great as the value of the
gold recovered.
Frank Campbell learned early that
all Is not gold that glitters. He came
here after successful mining career
In Nevada and thought he knew all
about gold that was worth knowing.
He used to purchase the gold from |
men that placer mined, paying for 1t |
in cash or supplies and sending 1t to
the assay office In Boise One day |
two 1tinerant miners came In with a |
lump of placer gold about as big as a
mans fist and worth at s14 an ounce |
about $400. He paid $14 an ounce |
for gold brought In and received
from $16 to $18 and ounce from the |
assay office. He bought their gold |
and In about two weeks received 6 |
draft for $3.50 and large iron nut |
such as Is used in the building of |
railroad bridge. These foxy miners |
had put this nut In the center and had |
received about $3.50 for it. Mr..
Campbell kept the nut on his desk
as long as he lived.

Equipment is being installed by
the horticultural department of the
University of Idaho to conduct fruit
evaporating experiments this summer
to be installed in any farmers orch
ard, and will be used by the Idaho
experts as a means of getting the ex-

time required for evaporation of
various fruits and the cost of steam
evaporation will be the principal OBJ
jects of the experiments.

"a Little Girl in Big City" a thrilling
play of New York life. written by James
KyrIe MacCurdy. was presented at the
Casino last night fresh from the Gotham
Theater. New York.
The story OF the play deals with the ex-
periences of Laura Nelson. a young coun-
try girl. who comes to the big city in
search OF a position and falls into the
hands OF unscrupulous blackmailers. She
makes every effort to elude their clutches
and fights for all woman holds dear.
and in the end finds a protector In loyal
young fellow from her own town.
The play Is in four acts and Is dramatic
in the extreme. The playwright has
made his characters present a story that.
while It tells forcefully of an evil which
the police department Of New York Is
fighting to overcome. yet pictures no
brothels or other scenes OF degradation.

mary of official reports published by the
statistical division Of the Interstat to
Commerce Commission yesterday.

creased from 500 95l. .539 to sc52, .507. rep
resentng an increase in net revenue
from s7l.sS6,914 to se6, ,sss. 2O3. The great
est increase per mile is disclosed in east
ern territory, which was ss52 for Oc-
tober, 1915. as compared with $3.50 in

felt a thrill of satisfaction that Shakes
