of the truth and veracity he now
enjoys. This snake then crawl

in his mouth and rolled like a hoop

on the ground lay the punctured
remains of his snakeship and be-

Of this in Missouri. Through the
state board of agriculture, it was
agreed that the work in this state
thus offered should be conferred in
Henry and Jasper counties. An
outbreak of cholera is now in pro-.
gress in Henry county and two
government men and govern
ment automobile are now IN that
field doing effective work.
Cholera is giving little trouble in
this county at this time but pro.
badly will be more or less in evil
dence by the latter part of the
summer. Jasper county was cho-
sen as one of the centers for utili-
zing the government aid against
this disease because of the effect
i've results accomplished through
John Parker on occasions in recent
years, with only state aid at his
disposal. Some wonderfully good
work was done in this way. If
cholera breaks out in this county
as many government men and
automobiles will be sent here as
as the character of the outbreak
may indicate are necessary. The
government will make Carthage
their headquarters and will have
office accommodations in the rooms
of the Business Mems League.
When a complaint of the pres
ence of hog cholera in any herd is
> received the automobile will be
, used for getting the government
, men on the ground with the cholera
serum very quickly and they will
give treatment as needed. For
that matter. these men will be
prepared to cope with any kind of
disease in any variety of stock and
will respond as needed whenever a
farmer is having disease troubles
with any of his stock. If oppor-
! tunity offers, these men may effect
a great saving to the farmers of
this county this year.-Carthage
