FEEDING SWINE OR vERMIN7I
coaI-Tar Solution as Dip or Spray
is Recommended for Treatment
Some Other Remedies.

1t has been estimated that LOO
pound hog has $4,000 drops of blood.
If the hog is supporting 1000 lice and
each louise takes one drop of blood per
day, what per cent of the hogs blood
will be lost daily, and who will pay
the bill?
Using a coal-tar solution q per
cent? as a dip or spray, is recon-
mended for treatment, but there
are other mixtures equally effective.
These are: /, equal parts kerosene and
machine Oil mixed together and APP
piled with an Oil can, brush or swab i
2, crude oil (thinned with kerosene if
too thick) applied with brush or as
a spray. Crude oil applied to the
backs Of the hogs slowly works over
the greater part of the hogs body, but
should be applied to the ears and both
TANKS.

WINTER CARE OF EVE FLOCK
Of Great Importance in Insuring Lamb
Crop in Springfield Clover or
Alfalfa Hay.

The winter care Of the flock is i'm
portant to insure a lamb crop to be
harvested in the spring. Ewes in good
condition need not be fed grain until
about a month before Landing, when
they should gradually be accustomed
to it. Ewes in thin or poor condition
should receive from one-fourth to one
half pound of grain daily. Corn alone
is not the best grain ration. A ra-
ton of six parts corn, three parts
wheat bran, and one part linseed Oil
cake, by weight, has proved very salts
factory. A ration Of corn, oats, and
braE, equal parts by weight, can also
be recommended.
The sheep should receive as much
clover or alfalfa hay as they will eat.

CORN AND LIVE STOCK FARM
Former Produces More Feed Per Aero
Than Any Other Crop for Cattle
Except Alfalfa.

Corr and live stock farming go hand
in hand. The great corn-growing Sec
tons are also the great live stock Sec
tons. Corn produces more feed per
acre than any other crop except al
falfa. 1t should be fed with alfalfa as
these two feeds make balanced ra-
ton.
Stock relish corn and corn fodder
whether cured in the field or in the
silo. This grain is unequaled in beef
and pork production. The meat pro-
duced from it is Of a firm consistency.
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1916-12-29

The amount of hay eaten can be cut
down by the use of corn silage or corn
slower. Two pounds of clean, sweet
corn silage can be used to replace
about one, pound of hay. Well cured
corn slower is also relished by the
ewes. Ordinarily, there is little dam
ger of the sheep eating too much of it,
if the hay is fed once a day. The
greatest danger of corn stover comes
from making it the exclusive feed.
Clean salt and water should be kept
before the flock. Sheep should always
have dry, well bedded floor to lie on.

Washington, Dec. pa parliament
airy misplay by one of its friends on
Wednesday upset plans for an immedi-

action of Senator Ashurst in securing
unanimous consent to consider a land

SEES U. S. WAR PERIL
LANSING HINTS AT DANGER,
THEN QUALITIES STATEMENT.
No Change of Policy, but "FeeIer" to
Find Out Where America
Stands.

Washington, Dec. %. - Secretary
Lansing issued a statement on Thurs
day simplifying and qualifying the one
he made earlier in the day regarding
the presidents notes to the belllger-
ents, because, he said, he feared some
incorrect differences were being drawn
from his first utterance.
Secretary Lansing said his purpose
in making the second statement was
to make it clear beyond question that
there was no change in the policy OF
neutrality of the United States.
Mr.. Lansing also said his purpose in
simplifying his statement was to make
it plain that the notes to the belliger-
ents should in no sense be construed
as threat to any of the governments.
His second statement follows:
II have learned from several quar-
tiers that wrong impression was made
by the statement which / made in the
morning, and 1 wish to correct that i'm
preston.
my intention was to suggest the
very direct and necessary interest
which this country as one Of the neu-
trail nations has in the possible terms
which the belligerents may have in
mind, and did not intend to intimate
that the government was considering
any change in its policy Of neutrality
which it has consistently pursued IN
the face of constantly increasing diff
culties.
II regret that my words were open
to any other construction, as / now re-
alize that htey were. think that the
whole tone and language of the note
to the belligerents shows the purposes
1t is needless to say that ! am unre-
servedly in support of that purpose
and hope to see It accepted"
Secretary Lansing's statement was
as follows:
1.-THE reasons for the sending of the
note were as follows:
ut isn't our material interest we had
| in mind when the note was sent, but
more and more our own rights are be-
coming involved by the belligerents on
both sides, so that the situation is be-
coming increasingly critical.
II mean by that, that we are draw
| ing nearer the verge of war ourselves
and therefore we are entitled to know
exactly what each belligerent seeks in
order that we may regulate our con-
duct in the future.
mo nation has been sounded. No
consideration Of the German Overtures
or Of the speech Of Lloyd-George was
taken into account in the formulation
Of the document. The only thing the
overtures did was to delay it few
days. 1t was not decided to send it
until Monday. Of course, the difficult
ties that face the president were that
it might be construed as movement
toward peace and in aid Of the Ger
man Overtures. He specifically denies
that that was the fact in the document
itself"

WAR TO CONTINUE.
KING GEORGE PRoRoGUING PAR
! LAMENT DECLARES FOR PROS
EcUTION OF CONFLICT.
LONDON CRIES NO TO WILSON
Bonar Law Says Statement Cannot Be
Given to Commons at Present, and
/ That Entente Will Make Joint Re-
ply to Germany's Proposal.

London, Dec. 26.-Parliament was
prorogued by King George until Feb
ruary z. In the address from the
throne proroguing parliament King
George declared that "the vigorous
prosecution of the war" would be the
single aim of England until the secur-
ity of Europe had been established. he
indicated that peace is not yet in sight.
The kings address follows:
"The vigorous prosecution of the war
must be our single endeavor until we
have indicated the right so ruthlessly
violated by our enemies and have eS-
tablished the security of Europe on
sure foundation. am confident that
we shall finally achieve the victorious
confirmation of the aims for which we
entered the war;"
An Exchange Telegraph dispatch
from The Hague says it is announced
semiofficially that should the entente
allies in their reply to the peace pro-
posals of the central powers leave the
door open for negotiations Germany
will make known her chief peace terms
Immediately.
The British government will make
no statement at the present in regard
to President Wilson's peace note, con-
sidering it a question that can be dealt
with only in communication with the
other members of the entente.
Mr.. Law was asked whether state
ment would be made regarding the
American note. He replied:
SIT must be obvious to the house
that this is a question that only can
be dealt with in communication with
our allies and that it is absolutely inn
possible to make a statement now"
The general public had it's first news
of President Wilson'S note from the
morning papers. The people. like the
press, were rather taken aback, as they
had about arrived at the conclusion
that Premier Lloyd-George's speech
had put an end to all peace talk, I'M
less the central popwers, in their reply
to the premier, were prepared to de-
fine their terms. That the president
or any other neutral ruler would take
any action was furthest from their
minds.
The evening papers, which do not
print editorials, came out with big
headlines which expressed their views.
The Evening News, which is the after
noon edition of the Daily Mail, heads
a reprint of the comment Of the morn
ing papers with the one word mo" in
large black type, and under it "our an
swer to President Wilson" and again
mo, no, no, that is the answer Great
Britain gives today without moments
hesitation to the surprising note from
President Wilson,"
The morning headlines, such as
President Wilson's Strange Peace Es-
say" president Wilson's Peace
Feeler,a Amazing Note" indicate in
slight measure the astonishment caused
by the communication.

BIG YEAR FOR ROADS
GREATEST PROSPERITY EVER
KNOWN FOR CARRIERS SETS
STARTLING RECORDS.
CARRIERS EARN OVER BILLION
Increase in Income Is Far More Than.
the Growing Cost of Labor and Ma
teriaIs-Eastern Roads Show the
Largest Profits.

Washington, Dec. 27.-More than
$1,O0O,OO0,0OO net income from opera
tons was made by the railroads Of
the country during the year now clos
ing. The huge total is the peak OF
prosperity in railroad operations, and
stands more than One-third higher than
the total of 1913, hitherto the banner
year.
Statistics gathered by the interstate
commerce commission complete for
nine months and made the basis for
calculation for the entire year, indi-
cate that the total net income from
operations will be approximately 81
O9S,OO0000. For the first nine months
of the year complete returns show
$785 ,558,266. Even this does not rep
resent the full amount, as roads whose
income is less than $1,OO0,O00 are not
included.
The estimate 81 O98, OOO, coos re-
garded by officials as conservative.
For the first nine months of the
year, the commissions figures show
that the railroads collected $2,654,829,-
CAT from all sources Of operation, the
chief items of which were as follows ::
Freight, $1,875, O19 $780, passenger traf-
fic, 1922, 103,9O7; mails, $45,348,6O9;
from express companies, $65,OS9,474
This total using the first nine
months as basis, will reach $4,000
estimate, and without doubt will ex-
coed it. Never before in the history
of railroad operations have the roads
had so great gross income.
Expenses have not kept pace with
the rapid rise in receipts, although
they have measurably increased. From
total of $751;, 1881, 269 in January ex-
penses had increased to $2O3, 235,394
in September, approximately III per
cent During that period receipts had
increased from $26O,O54,306 to 1924
954, 1901, approximately 25 per cent.
All operating expenses totaled ST.
IA, 160O22.
Alone 230,5O0 miles of railroad were
in operation during the year.
On the same basis, the years ex-
penses will approximate $2,346, 066,9 800,
leaving net revenue from operations
81 ,254, 1882. From the last figure,
however, must be deducted the rail-
roads annual tax bill, approximately
$155, 625, $40, and bad debts-down on
the books as uncollectable revenue
approximating $965,928, total Of
$3.50, 591, 474.
Compared with previous earnings,
net income for 1916 shows an increase
of more than 50 per cent over the
fiscal year of 1915; SO per cent over
1914, and "a per cent over 1913.
Wide divergence in receipts among
the roads of various sections is dis
closed. The overwhelmed railroads
of the East have skinned the cream
of the traffic.
While the usual eastward trend or
traffic, the great demands Of nations
at war, and the location of most OF
| the country's factories, munition and
otherwise, in the East are given as
prime causes for this condition, sec
ondary reasons are said to be that
eastern roads for the most part have
short hauls and traverse densely pop
ulated areas.
