Hog, Cholera

The farmers in the five southwest
counties in Missouri lost $211 900 from
hog cholera last year. The loss was
largely preventable. The time has
come when farmer need not lose 80
per cent of his hogs. He can save 80
per cent even when cholera strikes his
herd, by the prompt use of hog cholera
serum.
II your hogs are sick notify the near
est deputy state veterinarian. His
services are free.

Must Increase Prices?

The Missouri Press Association
was in session at Kansas City last
week and many very interesting
newspaper discussions were held
during the session. A very prom.
inent part on the program, quite
naturally, was devoted to dis
cussion of the jump in the price of
print paper and other, supplies and
how best to meet these increases.
]. W. Powell, advertising expert
connected with the course of jour
nalism at the state university, gave
it as his opinion that any news
paper publisher who does not in
crease his advertising rates and
subscription rates is quite likely to
be brought face to face with bank
ruptcy during the next year. 1t
must be admitted by any one at
all familiar with paper prices, that
something must be done" and it
already has been done by most of
the larger papers and many of the
smaller ones.
When the whole sale grocer is
compelled to increase his prices,
the retailer must, in self defense,
do the same. The newspaper pub
Usher, on the same basis, would
have been justified in increasing
both his advertising rate, and his
subscription prices some months
ago--and many of them did so
Others postponed any increase in
hope that the paper market was
temporarily "crazy," but there is
no indication that prices are to be
lower soon--and most experts pre-
dict that paper prices will be much
higher before they hit the lower
trend.
The answer seems very plain
The publisher must increase their
prices the same as any other bust
ness house does, or stand to lose a
large sum of money which most of
them are in no position to lose.
If present prices prevail for any
considerable period of time. or if
these increase, many a newspaper
is going to be forced out of bust
ness, especially those already being
operated on a very close margin.
Self. defense points the way-the
rates for advertising and subscrip-
tions will have to be increased un-
til such time as the paper market
gets back somewhere near the place
where it was before the jump
| came.

The Old, Old Story
BY IMRI ZUM ALT

l.
VX7HEN the meadow by the river
" Robes itself in velvet green,
And the red and yellow tulips
By the garden gate are seen,
And the cows go out to pasture
Down the narrow, hoof-worn lane,
Where the alder buds are opening
To the April sun and rain
When the purple lilac blossoms
Scent the early morning air,
And the snowballs in the sunshine
Robes of dazzling whiteness wear,
And the robins and the bluebirds
In the elms about the lawn
Fill the morning air with music
From the very peep of dawn,
Memories of other mornings,
Fresh with dew of other springs,
Flood my fancy, and vision
Of a girlish figure bring.
Gown the shade of lilac blossoms,
Lips that shame the garden rose,
Eyes that sparkle like the dewdrops
Where the morning sunlight flows.
Thus to love does manhoods fancy
In the spring forever turn,
And the fire of first devotion
Still with youthful fervor burn,
And as long as ilacs blossom,
Roses bloom and dewdrops fall,
You, in youth or age, my darling,
Shall to me be all in all.

the first three years of its organized
existence, acted as POSTMASTER, having

Richards, treasurer of the church, who
called on those to stand who knew
Mcknight when he was pastor here %
to % years ago, bringing IS people to
their feet Mr.. Richards suggested
that the number might have been
greater had all the ladies wanted to
acknowledge that they could remember
! that far back. After happy introduce
tory remarks Mr.. Mcknight set the pro-
gram going.
So interesting was the program, set
| and impromptu, that the people did
not realize it when the hour of II came,
and they didn't stop even then.
