treatment -..-...-...--......-------..-
Number of infected herds treated
in which hog cholera later re-
appeared
The temperance of hog cholera
upon eight farms may be explained by
the fact the farmers upon this num-
her of farms did not properly clean
and disinfect their hog lots and pens,
thus harboring the disease.
The above table shows the number
of herds, also number of hogs treated
with the serum alone treatment by
the Bureau of Animal Industry dur
ing the period of July 1, 1914, to June
80, 1916.
1t will be noted that there were 49,
291 hogs treated in 165 herds with a
loss of $50 hogs, or 51a per cent
This makes a total saving to the
farmers of Twin Falls district of 9412
per cent of hogs within the infected
herds, or II ,622.
The following table shows the num-
Der of hogs raised and lost from chOl-
era for the years of 1912 and Is within
all the territory in which hog cholera
control Unconstitutional work is now
being carried on by the bureau Of
animal industry; these demOnstra-
were begun July LIST, 1914:
Year. Hogs Raised. Lost from Cholera
1912 4S,116 3,163
1913 S3567 1878
The greatest losses occurred within
the South Side Twin Falls segrega-
ton. Thus it is known from a survey
made that the farmers of the Maroa
school district, independent No 5,
north of Filler, Idaho, lost SO per cent.
of their hogs during the year of 1913.
The total losses in the South Side
Twin Falls tract during the year Of
1913 alone amounted to l0,SS7 hogs.
During the year of 1913 no proper
precautions were exercised by the
farmers to control the disease, the
losses amounted TO twenty times the
losses that have occurred since the
Unconstitutional work was begun UNI
der the direction of the bureau of ami
NAL industry.
The above statistics prove cOnclu-
sively that hog cholera can be sue
cessfully controlled where the me-
thods advocated by the bureau of ami
NAL industry are put into practice;
these are outlined as follows:
1. Proper organization of farmers
4. OO-OpeIdliOu Ol part VI la hACl
in promptly notifying proper author
tiles of the presence of disease within
his herd
3. Prompt immunization of hogs
upon farms with potent anti-hog chol-
era serum.
4. Quarantining of all infected
premises.
5. Proper maintaining of quaran-
tine by owners of herds, such as keep
ing all visitors off premises during
presence of disease. Keeping sick
hogs properly confined, and off pub
lie highways.
g. Warning neighbors. Of disease.
z. Proper cleaning and disinfecting
of all infected premises

MEXICO MAY SEE NEW REVO-
LUTON

FL Paso, Texas, Jan. birth Of q
new revolution in Mexico to overthrow
the recently recofnized Carranza gov
ernment was announced today. Gen.
erals Fracisic Villa and Emiliano
Zapata will be the chief actors In the
new movement, according to handbills
which are being secretly distributed
in Mexican circles.
This manifesto, which was drafted
at Pachuca on December 25, Is signed
by Antonio Sotoy Cana, recently pro-
claimed president of Mexico by Cen
eral Zapata.
Cana, who has been Zapata's chief
adviser since the revolution started
five years ago, is one Of Mexico's most
talented lawyers and speakers. He
was Zapata's personal representative
at the revolutionary convention held
at Aguas Calientes a year ago and
made himself famous by calling the
Mexican flag q dirty rag, causing
riot at one Of the sessions which
nearly cost him his life.

The public hasn t time to seek you out. It's busy
It is YOUR duty to make the noise that attracts
attention If you don't other noise is going
to get the attention.
The best way to beat the tomtom is by advertising
And the best way to adverstse right is through your
local paper.
good local paper depends upon the home mer-
chants for support. 1t is only by being good tna1
it can give them the advertising service they require
If the merchants fail to utilize the columns OF the
local paper properly they are cheating themselves
and making it possible for the distant mail order
houses and the merchants advertising In the outside
papers that hit the town to get the advantage OF
local patronage.
The local paper reaches out to hundreds OF homes
which can be reached in no other way; and through
the local paper you can tell good merchandising
story that will bring the reader to the store the nrst
time he comes to town. And remember, the rural
reader likes to come town great deal better tnan
he likes to send away for stuff.
Readers also want the adertisng trade stories they
read to be attractive to offer bargns to induce them
TO trade with the advertisers They probably know

tell them through the medium of printers ink that

valuable as yours is to you They want to kno"

Negro Wanted For the Alleged Killing
. Of White Man In 1906 Brought
Back From Pennsylvania.

Columbia, Jan. Joe Grant, tne
negro who. "a wanted for the klllng OF
6 s.lssts nae es z. ~
who has been resisting extraditlon
from pennsylvania, was brought to
Columbia last night under heavy guard
and lodged in the state penitenhary.
The negro arrived at Z 40 on special
passenger tram which was running III
the place Of 81, the Augusta Special,
which was In wreck yesterday morn
ing. Grant was brought from Penn
sylvania to Columbia BY Sheriff Swear
ingen Of Edgefeld county. At the sta
ton he was met by two guards from
the state penitentiary and they
brought him up to the stape house on
a street car where he was transferred
to another car and taken to the state
penitentiary.
The fight to get the negro Grant back
to this state has been waged for sew
eral years. He was accused Of kill
ing MIR. Minis at Johnston in Edge
ueld county in 1916 and tied to Penn
sylvanIa. A reward was offered for
his capture and he was recognized by
Il detective while working in barber
shop in Philadelphia. After his ar
rest, he interposed every legal obstacle
possible and fought fxtradiction to
South Carolina. The then governor
of Pennsylvania, Tener. hOnored the
reQuisitiOn papers from the governor
Of South Carolina, but an appeal was
taken to the courts, the case finally
reaching the United States supreme
court. That tribunal as all others up
held the requistion and then the new
governor Of Pennsylvania suddenly an
nounced that he would not honor re-
QUESTION papers. The negro Grant In
his appeal to the United States su-
preme court made sensational charges
to the effect that he could not get q
fair trial in South Carolina owing to
race prejudice.
Attorney General Peoples and So
licitor Zimmerman made several trips
to Pennsylvania to get the negro, and
have used every effort to this end.
Governor Manning took the matter up
actively and in a letter to Governor
Brumbaugh set forth that Grant could
get fair trial in this state and he call
ed On the Pennsylvania governor In the
name Of juctice to surrender the negro
to the South Carolina authorities.
Nothing was known of the matter
again until Grant was brought here
last night. He was in the wreck Of
the Augusta Special In Virginia Fri
day night and his name as we'll as that
of Sheriff Swearingen OF Edgefeld
were sent out on press reports as
among the number injurd. Their in
juries are said to hav been only slight,
however.
Grant was very tAlkative when be-
ing brought from the union station to
the penitentiary and mentioned his
trip and the wreck. He was well
dressed, wore a neat looking brown
suit, overcoat and hat with black shoes
which were freshly polished. He were
gold spectacles and appeared to be in
good health. He complained Of being
tired from his long trip.

PROPOSES LAW WITH TEETH.
No Opportunity to Escape Personal
Punishment by Payment of Fine.

A bill which provides that every
person convicted Of violating the pro
hibition law shall be sent to the chain
gang and shall not be given the oppor'
tunity to escape such personal punish.

81 shall be successful in securing the
passage of this bill and its enforce

rids South Carolina Of the evils Of the
liquor traffic. The failure Of the pro.
hibition laws Of this and other States
has been due largely to the fact thar
the penalties imposed did not suf-
fciently punish. This will not be the
case under this bill.
Fear OF Punishment.

are concerned, fear Of punishment Is
the greatest incentive to respect and re-
gard for law. And If conviction OF
selling alcorolic liquors means as this
measure provides, a chaingang SEN
