GOVERNMENT SENDS TWO Ex-
PERTS HERE TO COOPERATE
WITH FARMERS IN DISTRICT.

DR.. ]. w. Logan Of Marsha1ltown
has arrived here to represent the
United States government in the con-
troll and eradication of hog cholera and
will be assisted by DR.. John p. Simons
also of the federal government, max
ing Ottumwa their headquarters. The
work will probably be permanent and
it is expected to accomplish much for
the saving of the hogs in this section
of the state. The territory in which
the two veterinarians will work con-
sists Of thirteen counties in southern
Iowa, including Wapello, Mahaska,
Monroe, Keokuk, Washington, Louisa,
panoose, Des Moines and Davis coun.
ties.
For Vaccination Theory.
The value Of vaccination for the
prevention of cholera among hogs is
one of the things urged by DR.. Logan
who says that IS per cent OF the rails
ers of pure bred stock, as well as the
government and state experts all
urge the use of serum in dealing with
hog cholera. These, he says, are the
most reliable authorities and should
be the last word as recommendation
for this method Of treatment.
DR.. Logan and DR.. Simons have not
come here, however, to vaccinate hogs,
but will cooperate with the farmers
and local veterinarians throughout the
district to counterfeit hog cholera
They win give their services and ad-
vice gratis, as the government pro-
vides for all expenses Of the experts
while in the work here.
Once with County Auditor.
The two government representa-
tives will have their headquarters in
the court house in the ONCE of the
county auditor and may be reached
there in person by phone or letter any
time. Until the present there has
been twenty-eight counties given this
work in force, but now every county
in the state is given attention. With
Ottumwa as headquarters, the work
will be done from and through Ottum-
wa as the most central place and best
location for reaching the big field to
be covered.

What II Patriotism?

Among nations, France at present,
Is best entitled to answer the qucs-
ton. For three years II has been
making q supreme effort TO save Its
life rs an independent country, owing
no allegiance TO any, except It's own
representative form Of govcrnm, NJ.
Its territory Is partly ovcrrun BY the
most powerful military oganism ever
known in the worlds history. by So
perhuman efforts Il has stayed the
mighty invasion, and so far has saved
IL capital. But every frcnchman cap
able Of fighting Is under arms. H.,
youth are sent to the front ahead OF
the regular time prescribed. The
whole population is doing its utmost.
All the wealth Of the people IL freely
offered in the contest. The carnage
has been fearful, and still continues.
hut France ~ infleSibly determined,
even cheerful IN It's spirit OF absolute
sacrifice. Now this u patriotism. lc'
no country think that II can never be-
forced To enter like fiery ordeal.

4 Million Fighters.

When the new army now being call
ed to the colors Is selected and put
into training the United States will
have over 100000 soldiers ready for
battle as soon as their preparation is
complete. The new army, the regu-
lars and the national guard, will total
1,250,O0O. Setting aside u reasonable
force for the Mexican border, the
coast defenses, the Philippines and
other points which must be guarded,
this will leave 100000 Of the finest
men in the world, who will cross the
ocean within the next twelve months,
II the war continues. By the time
they leave this country another mil
lion nicn will be in training to go to
their support IL needed.
It will be magnificent army, care
fully selected, thoroughly equipped
and profiting by the experience of
others, The strength of that force
cannot he anything but q determining
factor when II hits the line In France,
or wherever the line is located at the
time. II will be the largest army ever
assembled in America and the great
est ever transported across an ocean.
When one thinks of this army, the
work it will be called upon to do, and
the sacrifices 1t may be compelled to
make, the heart beats with patriotic
pride.
Mistakes will be made in organize
tion, and experience may bring bitter
lessons, but this army will ultimate
ly b the best fighting force in the
world.
