Gov. Gardner. by proclamation,
placed a quarantine on the shipment
OF stock hogs from other states into
Missouri until they ire %inoculated
against hog cholera and held for
fourteen days.
This action was taken upon the
recommendation of the state board Of

slider necessary measures for the pre-
vention of hog cholera, which result
ed in losses in Missouri last year Of
more than 100000
DR.. ID. F. Luckey, state veterinarian
said that hog cholera now IS prevalent
IN % counties of Missouri, but the
losses to date have not been heavy.
Luckey's report, filed with the board
of agriculture, indicates that between
April / and June l, 1917, his depart
ment had placed 377 outbreaks OF
cholera under control. These oc'
Cured in more than 80 counties.
Luckey estimates that if the hog
cholera In Missouri now was uncon
troIled the losses to farmers this

New laus ~ eNees.
All al the nev laws that we're e..
acted b. the last session Of the geo.
erai assembly will become effective
June lS-that Is. all Of the enact
ments that did not have emergency
eiausas attached. which we're en-
proved by ~two-thirds Of the bwmak.
ers.
There are about 200 Of the new
laws. hut aside from the revenue
measures. which include the income
tax. tax commission. inheritance tax.
"~soft-drink" tax and others Of like
character. the most important is the
law creating the prison commission.
which changes radically the scheme
OF management of the penal institu.
tons OF the state.
Other important new statutes are
those generally termed child wei.
fare.' these including all the meas
ures designed for better care of delin-
quent and neglected children.
/, The biggest piece of legislation,
next to the revenue measures, was
the Halves highway act, which bore
an emergency clause and has been in
force for the past three months.
Under the Halves code, for there are
a number OF companion statutes round
ing out the Halves act proper, II will
be possible for Missouri to attain
within the next ten years a system Of
modern highways.
Operation and effect of the new
revenue laws will be watched with a
great deal of interest. There Ia nc
doubt that some of them are going tc
be big producers and on the other
hand some Of them will prove dis
appointing in the amount Of revenue
that will result from their enforce
ment.
Administration of the soft drink
law will be filled with i~ntricacies AM
multitudinous detail. as State Bee
Inspector Mosby, charged with tn
collection of the taxes under 1t, ha
discovered. Strange to relate. how
ever. all of the dealers, manufactul
ers and others interested in the "sof
drink trade manifest a keen desir
to obey the law to the letter. Tax o
the ingredients that enter into tn
making of soft drinks complicate
the situation.
Legislation that does not becom
effective until the close Of the preset
:, automobile registration year, JannaI
81, 1918. is the new motor vehic.
, license law which practically doubl'
= the state automobile tax. This a
supplements the Halves highway COZ
by supplying the sinews OF wal f
. road building, as all Of the motor G.
u tax will go into the road fund.
