SAVE THE HOGS; THEY
ARE NEEDED

TO suggest that we should save
our hogs, at any time, but more
especially In the oountry's present
crisis, may seem quite uncaIled
for, or even ridiculous. However,
there are one or two points In this
connection which may DO over
looked, and will bear stressing.
The first Ia with reference to the
use and abuse Of serum. Serum,
as every hog-owner knows, IL q
valuable protective against hog
cholera, the demand for which
seems to be on the increase; and
from all accounts, the State serum
plant is having all 1t can do to
meet the requests for serum that
come to Ii.
The intelligent and judiclous
use Of serum is all right, and is to
be commended. But may there
not be some hog owners who order
serum when not really needed, or
order quantities far in excess Of
what they actually require at the
timei II 80, and we think IL not
improbable, 1t means a waste of
serum, and il probably depriving
others Of ita us, on account OF q
temporary shortage Of the supply
thereby occasioned.
In intelligently conserving the
serum supply, therefore, 1t means
conserving and increasing the peo
ple's food supply In hogs.
On the other hand, the one who,
through the wastcful use, or
abuse, Of serum deprlves some one
Of It's use in trying to save bis
hogs, is not only not aiding con.
servation, but the very opposite.
The second point Ia, the adop
tion Of strict sanitary measures in
connection with hog cholera. The
man who does not effectually de
stroy his cholera infected car
casses, but permits them to lie
around exposed to be the means
Of spreading infection to his own
still healthy hogs, and to his
neighbors' herds, is surely not us
ing his best efforts to conserve
and increase the hog supply, and,
therefore, the food supply of the
people in hogs and hog products.
And the same may be said with
regard to thorough disinfection of
cholera infected premises, ETC., 10
order TO destroy infection and keep
It from spreading and killing more
hogs with cholera w. II. Dial

Washington, May---The central

THINK, MAN!

Five years ago the cane top had
a value Of *17 90 per acre az feed
for cattle. Thousands OF tons of
cane tops were allowed to rot. the
only known practical way OF dis.
posing of them, In the fields. The
silo made 1t possible to keep the
supply till 1t could be used. AT
that time, bran was worth 80 cents
per 9. W. Today bran is wort b
o. 70 per @. W and relatively the
cane tops should have value of
at least $50 per acre.
Dear reader, are you making
any provision to save the cane
tops which have heretofore rotted
IN your fleldsi
II You get for your cane, this
fall, 20 or % per ton, and bran
values should sink to 90 cents per
q. W. again, the probabilities are
that you will need all the cane
tops you can store to keep your
stock from want. The country
has been repeatedly warned
against transportation difficulties
at least often enough to prompt
one to take all reasonable meas
ures possible to guard against
emergencies. Bran will probably
not be sold as low as 80 cents
again In years to come.
Save your cane tops and you
will guard against car shortage
this coming winter.
Corn, oats end bran will make
meat, butter and milk; but these
latter commodities will not be az
profitably produced to the farmer
as they could be out Of the silo.
II the silos are not built or
made ready now for their work
this winter they will not be availa-
BILE when needed.
Re q general, and prepare for
the coming struggle against ad-
verse conditions and abnormally
high prices. Drive-don't be al

white draperies, the stains and
splashes on their faces and hair
and their unrestrained jollity give
them the appearance OF victims Of

In India, halls which may be sc.
cured for a small rental, are pro-
vided for these ceremonies. But
weddings are also celebrated ia

attendance. In a Hindu temple a
