HOG CHOLERA

Hog cholera is disease that the
Mason Valley farmer must contend
with in order to raise swine success
fully. An outbreak occurs and kills
off all hogs that do not have high
resistance to the disease. The few
hogs left increase; the resistance dis
appears in the succeeding generations
and we are again visited by cholera
The only method the federal govern
ment advises fer the absolute pre-
vention of cholera is the "simultane-
Gus" treatment of virus and seruml
This treatment makes hogs choler3
immune for life.
All purebred Berkshires pigs at the
Nordyke Stock Farm have been Civ
en- the simultaneous treatment and
will hereafter be sold guaranteed tc
be cholera immune.

What We Eat,

The doctors may disagree over the origin of pelagra (they disagree on most things), but the theory of the public health service Is reasonable enough. We are largely what we eat. Diseases that once were fatal are now treated absolutely by diet and treated successfully, as all phy- sicians agree. Perhaps. in another generation, the drug store will be a food shop. Instead of paregoric or castor oil, the family doctor will pre- scribe orange juice or lettuce. Every child will know the relative impor- tance of fats, proteids and carbohy- drates. After having banished drink and tobacco, new generation will circulate pledges against sugar and pie crust. Both have slain their. thou sands and tens of thousands, and su- gar has killed way more Americans than rattlesnakes ever did. Many a man worries more over the lubricat- ing oil he puts in his motor car than on the fuel he shovels into his diges- tive motor. We call this a civilized age, but in the matter of food and food frauds, we have just begun emerging from the stone age

WAR AND DEMOCRACY.

Our political leaders tell us that we are fighting in the interest of the people. That is what the kaiser is telling the German. The czar is tell ing the same story to the Russians. And the French government, no doubt, assures the disciples of Sorel that the carnage Is for the benefit of the people. It is 8 great time for democracy-surely never so many diplomats and statesmen talked so of it before. ' t All seem to be agreed that the principles of democracy are at stake. No coun- try thinks of putting these principles into practice, but somehow they ali want the people to fight for them.- Exchange.

REPORT ON FISHERIES.

The annual report of the commits sioner of Fisheries to the secretary of commerce shows that the bureau has just completed the most successful of the forty-five years of it's existence The number of fish produced and distributed was greater, and the cost of production per million less, than in any previous year. Fifty permanent hatcheries and seventy-six sub-hatch- cries, auxiliaries, and egg-collecting stations have been conducted and the output during the fiscal year 1915 was over four billion young fish and eggs, an increase of more than 241,0O0,OO0 over the previous year. Plants of food fishes were made in every state and territory; fish eggs were distributed to the fish com mission of twenty-seyen states; and consignments of eggs were sent to Porto Rico, Cuba, India, and Japan. The distribution of the output re- quired over .146,O00 miles of travel by the five special cars of the bureau and 491, 1000 miles by detached mes sengers. The introduction of the aumpback salmon of the Pacific coast into Maine streams, which last year was an experiment, is now a reality as numbers of these fish were taken during the summer of 1915 in the Maine rivers; further more, ripe eggs have been taken from them-a proof positive of thorough standardization. The coun- Accompaniment of transplanting the Atlantic lobster in Pacific waters is still in progress. +r-

WITHHOLDING THE TRUTH.

The people of the United States for the past two years have known actu- ally less about conditions in Mexico a country bordering the United States, than they have known about conditions in the war-ridden coun- tries of Europe, despite the rigid con- sorship on all European news. The reason is that little news is permitted to get out of Mexico save through of dcial channels, and all of the news which reaches this country officially Is suppressed and withheld from the people, save such portions as the ad- ministration press agents permit to be given out.
 A correspondent representing the Chicago Tribune and the New York Sun sent on a mission to get some facts and throw some real light on conditions as they exist and on the history of the doings of the past few months, has managed to get word home to his newspapers that it Is inn possible to send the truth out of the country.
 There is strict censorship of the cable at Vera Cruz and on the tele- graph lines. The only way to get mail out of Mexico City is to send it un- sealed in the United States pouch, where it goes direct to Washington City, there to be censored.
 This amounts to direct charge that, besides withholding from the public all of the matter concerning Mexico which reaches Washington. of- fcially, the private mails are like wise censored at Washington City, in order to prevent the real truth reach ing the public from an official source. If the charge be true 1t explains why the country gets so little news from Mexico and knows 50 little about con- ditions here.
 This is still another amplifcation of "pitiless publicity"

The Hope of the Consumptive.

Dr. E. l.. Trudeau, condemned as a hopeless consumptive at the age of 26, lived till he was 67, staying all the time in the Adirondacks, near Saranac lake. The case is interesting but it is only one of thousands. Open air, however, is what counts most, according to the modern theories of medical men, and the climate is a subordinate matter. though not un- important. Dry air is better than damp air, always. The hope of the consumptive does not hinge on such a life in the open as is possible only for people of means. That is the cheering message of modern science. There is a chance in any climate. Nu- tritious and digestible food, open windows, or preferably porch sleep ing, avoidance of alcohol and either total abstinence from tobacco or a very moderate indulgence, careful at- tention to the safeguarding of others that makes it possible to remain at home, with the psychological advan- tages of home surroundings, these are the lessons of experience to those who used to be told they were sure to die in three years, most likely to die within a year. The Trudeau H. lustration may be used to advertise the climate of the Adirondacks, but 1t is wholly possible that @ man liv- ing as much in the open as did Tru- deau at Saranac Lake, even If he had stayed on Long Island, would have done as we'll. The way of living, not the place, is what is vital for the victim.

odious Comparjson.

A little girl from Brooklyn was tak- en to visit her maternal grandmother in Connecticut. During her stay the household made much of her, and on her departure she was hugged. and kissed and wept over by each member of the affectionate family in turn. The scene made a deep impression on her young mind.
 A visit to some Boston relatives fol. lowed. At the conclusion of it her un. cle and cousins stood smiiingly waving their adieus to the little one until she was out of sight.
 The child's mother was beginning to wonder what made her so unusually quiet when a solemn little voice rang out from her corner of the car:

WATER GLASS
 HELPS FIND BODY
System May Be Used in Finding Bod les of Krause Victims-Was
 Used in Yukon Cases.

The use of a waterglass for assist ing in searching the Yukon river for Ia distance of sixty miles for the bod ies of victims murdered by O'Brien, all of which were recovered and O'Brien hanged may be used to To- cate the bodies of William Christie and Captain .unkett, who are be- lieved to have been victims of Ed ward Krause, at Juneau.
 P. R. Mcclure of Fairbanks, the man who secured the evidence which hanged O'Brien, is now in Juneau. A water glass is very simple ar engagement for searching the bottom of a channel and may be used to a considerable depth. The Yukon riv- CT was searched from where it was discovered the bodies of Messrs. Fred Clayson, Ralph Clayson and Olsen had been deposited in the river to a distance of 60 miles and all of the bodies were recovered. A violin box was also brought to the surface which contained $80 in gold nuggets, and the body of an unidentified negro, mostly decomposed, was brought to the surface. The men were murder ed Christmas, 1899. Four other men were killed by Fornea and Labell and their bodies were recovered, and the two men were hanged in Dawson. In the Brown murder case Brown was hanged and in the Mitchell murder case Mitchell was given a life sen tence.
 It may be remarked that the Yu- kon river where it was dragged is three times as wide as Gastineau channel, but from the time the search began until it was finished there was no question of expense and the work was carried along in systematic manner. The same ground was not gone over twice; every bar and drift pile was examined, and finally the bodies were recovered and the evil dence against the murderers com pleted.

Where the Land ls Valued at Over
 $16ooo,ooo Per Aero.
 There is an amazing price set upon the land of London. In the center of the English metropolis tiny lots have been sold for fortunes.
 An acre there is the dearest in the world. Many transaction over ground In the heart of the city has set the figure of $1G.250,O0O per acre. One square mile of London is valued at $750,O0O.O0O. The land beneath the Bank of England at low estimate Is worth $35.O00.O00. and there are only three acres in that tract too.
 There are places on Queen Victoria Upper Thames. St Mary-at-Hill and Cannon streets where one square inch is worth $1.25. In Lombard street and King William street prices have ranged from $2O0 and s25O to S35O per square foot.
 Cornhill property has been bought for more than $12.OOO.O0O an acre, Thread. needle street land for $35O per square foot. and church in Austin Friars. not such large church either, was tempted with en offer of $5.OOOOOO for the land beneath it.
 The steady lifting of London land in price has brought fabulous riches to the owners. Families have risen to prominence on no other ground than that they owned small bits of ground in valuable sections. Rents are high there. and sales have made owners per. manently wealthy.-Philadelphia North American.

LIGHT ON LIGHT.
What is Really Is and How It's Wavss
 Affect Our Eyes.

What is RcaIly Is and How It's Waves
 Affect Our Eyes.
 How many of us could say what light" Is!
 Could we explain why the gloom of the streets seems increased ienfOld when we leave n well lighted room! ! And do We know why all of Us suffer discomfort. If not actual pain. when from darkness we cutter a brilliantly lighted place!
 The discomfort on entering lighted room after darkness iS because the optic. nerve. which receives light just as the drum of tue ear receives sounds. is suddenly burdened with light rays before the pupil of the eye has had time to contract to receive them. The pupils dilate very much in the dark in order to admit every ray possible, and dilated pupil cannot. without discomfort, suddenly receive an abun dance of light rays.
 When the pupils contract there Is an automatic adjustment to the quantity of light When we peer" we are really only adjusting our pupils. Go ing from brilliant light to darkness. the pupils do not dilate instantly They remain contracted and cannot for time collect what light there is So the darkness appears intensified.
 Cats. owls and other animals see in the dark because they have the power of enlarging their broad pupils and collecting light which is invisible to Us
 Light itself is fluid of luminous ether. which fills up the spaces in the air particles. It has an undulating vi.. bratory movement. which. strikes on the optic nerve. giving us the sensa- tion of light. Weekly.

Father Corbett Comments on Churcf
 Scandal.

NOA ~SoS O>e ~e.s~~ ~.. .. Scandal.
 The local paper,f which prints the press dispatches as it receives them, records the fatal fight that took place in the Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, at Dupont, Pa. Whilst we might wish that those who control the Associated Press dis patches would give out only edifying news, still we realize that they give out what they think of interest to the public and the public dearly loves the rehearsal of a scandal.
 The facts as related are presumably true as the Prospector printed them.
 Regarding the unfortunate incident Father Corbett begs to make the fol- lowing comment
 Dupont is town of about 15O0 in- |habitants near the county seat of Pittston, Pa. The Sacred Heart par ish belongs to the diocese of Scran-: ton, Pa. The 1915 Catholic Direc- tory names Rev. Henry Cichoki, M D. A., J. as the parish priest. His ap- pointment as the appointment of ev- cry Catholic prisest is made not by the people but by the Catholic Bishop of the diocese nor can he be removed except by the authority of the bishop
 His congregation is made up of Polish people. The Polish Catholics on account of their factional fights amongst themselves, have in various parts of the U. s. caused great deal of trouble to the bishop, whom they recognize as their lawful superiors in Church matters.
 When a faction of these passion tossed, misguided foreigners attempt ed to eject the lawfully appointed Parish priest, in defiance of the Bish- op, they were acting in the spirit of anarchy and communicated them selves from the Catholic church.
 The Catholic Church, in common with all good men, deplores the aw- full scandal enacted within the pre- |cincts of a Church consecrated to the worship of God and to show her ab- horrence for the fatal violence will close the church to all religious wor- ship. .
 The loyal Catholics will submit to the Bishop; the .disloyal Catholics will be no, longer recognized as Cath olics.
