DESTRUCTIVE TO THE SWINE
seours In Pigs More Feared Than Out
break Of Cholera by Prominent
Nebraska Hog Breeder.

Scours in pigs is declared by one
Of Nebraska's prominent hog saisers
to be more destructive to the swine
industry Of the state than hog cholera.
The causes are overfeeding, change in
feed, decayed feed, lack Of exercise,
or dirty water. Sometimes filth in
pens and bedding is an additional
cause when 1t is taken into the pigs
system from the sow's udder or from
the navel. The college Of agriculture
says that the correction Of these con-
ditions is the first measure to be
adopted, and that in case securing has
started, the sow's feed should be cut
down to small amount of oats or
bran. When the trouble is corrected.
the ration should be increased grad.

depth Of eight to fifteen inches, or
more, and gives rise at frequent In
tervals to leafy shoots. Thus it will
often be found that an entire patch Of
thistles is attached to one root, and
Is in reality but one plant. The root
is exceedingly hardy, and can live
over winter or through prolonged
drought In dormant condition. Pieces
of the root that are broken off by a
plow or cultivator and carried to other
places will await warm, moist
period, and then begin to send up
leafy shoots, thus establishing new
patch forthwith. II the leafy stems
nre cut down, others will be sent up
to take their place, and this process
may be repeated from two to eight
times before the root becomes ex-
hausted. p
The point that must be kept in mind
In fighting Canada thistles is that 1t
is the roots. rather than the tops, that
must be killed. Simply cutting off
the tops few times has much the
same effect as pruning an apple tree.
But If the tops are cut of deep and
frequently, the root must eventually
suffocate through-lack of leaves. =.

In. the states north Of the Ohio

Canada thistle. This marvelously
prickly plant abounds in grain fields.
pastures, and meadows throughout the
central West, and is locally common
In the northeastern states. It is
found in parts Of West Virginia, Ken
tucky, and Missouri, and of late years
has been increasingly troublesome in
the grain-growing sections of the
Northwest. Canada thistle, or simply
thistle" has been condemned in the
laws of 25 states, and at least one
hundred local communities, no other
three plants together having received
so much unfavorable attention. Ger
tainly no plant is more generally and
heartily disliked, unless it be the sand

The winds, that blew across the, or
chard naturally boosted the total, in
the old pay envelope. But now that
the wind of competition is stilled-ah,
mel these coming days are likely in
deed to be ''the saddest Of the year."
But what will happen when the
pruning knife is taken in hand and
the farmers set in to work? If, as is
reported, salaries are really to go on
the toboggan, there's bound to be trou-

will be of the mouth variety. The

Industrial Law Branded Unfair.


Resolutions condemning the State
Industrial Commission and demanding
the repeal of the law by which it was
created were passed without dis
senting. vote by the Colorado Fedora
ton of Labor at the Colorado Springs
meeting. The resolution declared
that the commission. has usurped the
rights and liberties of laboring men
and that the repeal of the law for
every section and paragraph would
be made paramount issues of the COM
ing election. Resolutions in favor of
a law framed to wrest from judges
the power of granting injunctions
were also introduced by the commit
tee and adopted. The convention
overwhelmingly favored the resolution
urging upon Governor Carlson, labor
commissioners and district attorneys
the enforcement of the Colorado wom-
ans eight-hour law. By vote of 55
to- 27, the convention adopted reso-
luton in favor of the beer" amend
ment. This provides for the manu-
facture and sale in Colorado of beer
in original packages. Rose Winslow
of Pennsylvania, formerly a. factory
girl and now an inspector for the
Consumers league, made an i'm
passioned appeal to the convention
for organized labor to urge passage

ating the Rocky Mountain National

for the maintenance. supervision and
improvement of the park to $4,000
a year,. unless by separate act a
greater appropriation is authorized. 1t

production In. 1915, as shown by the
final figures OF Charles w. Hender-
son Of the United States Geological
Survey, was $43,426,697. This was an
increase of $9,966.571 over the value
of the production in 1914.

yer output was $685. 1872, a decrease
of $1.301,042. The copper production
of the state was valued at $1,244.694,

$339,S34, and the zinc output was $12,-

The report shows that four-fifths of
the increased value of the states min
eral production was due to the in
creased output of zinc. The state had
821 producing mines, or forty-five less
than the preceding year. Lake and
Pitkin counties produced consider
ably more than half of the states to-
tai lead output. Almost half the
mines operated were in Boulder,
Clear Creek, Gilpin and Lake coun-
ties.
The increased value of the output
was due more to increased prices
than output, as shown by the total
gain in short tons of ore treated
only 53,639. The production of silver
in the state fell off 1,67s,0O0 fine

pRoHIBITIoM AND THE FARMER.

pRoHIBITIoNs AND THE FARMER.
c,4There are In the United States
about 100000 farmers, and they
constitute ten per sscent, OF the entire
population. The value of their an
nual products Is approximately $10.-
100000, 600, or LOCO for each farm
or. The liquor interests claim that
should prohibition prevail the FARM
ers will be deprived Of their market
for this large amount Of produce.
There is another side to this Ques-
tion. Mr.. Charles Sickle has made a
careful study Of the situation. He
says:
.4The liquor industry purchases
every year about 500. 100000 worth
of produce from the farmer, and
therefore the liquor industry con-
sumes just one per cent Of all that
the farmer produces, that is, SO for
each farmer in the United States. The
question Is. what will the poor farm
err do with his SO worth Of produce
which the liquor industry cannot pur-
chase when it is put out Of business?
There are over 100000 families in
the United States which would pur-
chase the stuff now sold to the liquor
men. According to study made by
the department of labor of the United
States, the average workingman's
family spends annually about $500 for
food. This would make a total of at
least $4,000, 100000 per year for the
20,OO0,0O0 families.
"If the 10000 600 families were each
to increase their purchasing power
one per cent, or So per year. it would
amount ! to exactly 500. 600 OOO-the
sum of the liquor mems purchases
from the farmer. But let us assume
that the retail figure at which the av-
erage family would ,be compelled to
buy is twice as high as the liquor
men pay. This would increase the
amount necessary to be purchased to
$40 per year for each family, or about
twenty cents per week. There can be
no doubt that, with the increasing
earning power and spending ability of
the average workingman's family due
to the abolition of the liquor traffic.
the average family will easily wish to
spend at least twenty cents more per
week for cherries, peaches, apples, ber-
ries and the various forms of grain, to
say nothing about flour and bread and
other materials which come primarily
from the farm"

FLIRTING WITH UNDERTAKEN.

Here is something that may give
the beer drinker pause -. In Professor
Reinitzer's prisms, displayed conspic-

prism standing for IA clio pints of al
cohol, the amount a man who drinks
