A crisis seems to have been reach
unfolds in three acts. First, the
German effort to dispose of France,
which ended in their failure to take
Paris. Second, the German effort to
dispose of Russia, which failed with
the escape of the Russian army thru
the marshes of western Russia. Third
the German effort to- break through
Verdun toward Paris, which has, all
so failed. Three times the Germans,
surrounded by great allied govern
ments much stronger in men and
money, have failed to break the
circle around them, or to dispose of
either one of their foes. The Kaiser
in his efforts has simply been fol-
lowing history. In the Seven Years
War Frederick the Great of Prus-
STA first disposed of Saxony, then
Bavaria, etc. When Napoleon began
his great career, he first whipped
Austria at Austerlitz, then disposed
of Prussia at Jena, then Russia at
Friedland. So Germany has tried the
same methods Under her blows
France and Russia staggered, but
did mot fall Meantime Great Britain,
holding the seas, had ample time to
equip an army and put it on the
firing line 1t is there now, three
million strong.

HOW TO GET RID
OF HOG CHOLERA

The Virus of Hog Cholera remains
active ON the premises after an out
break for and indefinate length of
time. Instances are reported where
it was apparently destroyed in
short time from natural causes on
ly, such as sunshine and drying.
1t is unsafe to depend entirely on
literature to relieve you of your
trouble for many more instances are
reported where it has remained on
the premises for several seasons,
causing repeated outbreaks of the
disease where only natural means
for destroying it were depended up
on.
Therefore, the adoption of some
other means is necessary to assist
Nature in her efforts to overcome
the infection. The most effective way
anyone can assist Nature is to
thoroughly clean the premises
and thoroughly disinfect them, us
ing a disinfectant that will destroy
the virus.
The only portions of the premises
that need to be cleaned and disin-
fected are those where the sick
hogs were permitted to run and nest
during the course of the disease.
f all the sick hogs were isolated
as soon as they We're taken sick
and confined in a covered pen, there
would be but little cleaning to be
done. In most cases, however, tho
lots should be scraped and the lit
ter removed where it can be en-
posed to the sunshine or ploughed
under. Around the baseboards and
under sheds, the ground should be
sprinkled freely With quick lime
Wallow holes should be drained
then lined, and then filled. If the
sick hogs have been nesting around
an old straw stack it should be re-
moved or burned. If around a new
stack that portion that has become
infected should be removed and then
thoroughly disinfected with three
percent solution oflCompound Cresol

Ply, the people know the depths of
woe, and not soul is happy. But
here, where peace fulfils it's lease,

from fear we walk and hear the
sounds of honest labor. The mill
wheels hum, the plumbers plumb,
the farmers go a-seeding, and you
can wall1 a city block and see no fell

timer tins, the banker banks the
boodle---oh, happy land wherein the
band is playing Yankee Doodle. Such
peace as this is surely bliss, the
timbrel sounds our gladness, the
psalter psalts, the Walter Waits,
to whoop for war is madness. By
Europe's streams the moonlight
CLEANS on pale and CHASTITY corpses,
and heaven frowns on blackened
towns and shattered guns and horses
But on this shore no wave of gore
against the homestead washes: the
sunshine shines on pumpkin vines,
and large and luscious squashe
