POLITICAL ADVERTISING
ELECT MAYO.


In the Republican advertising put out
in 1.-THE Montpelier Argus" Of Oct. 80
under the heading Vermont Republicans
Must Wake Up" read Of the harmony
meeting between Clement and the Repub-
lican candidates and state committee
Evidently, Clement gave them some
knockout drops, for he put them to sleep
In their sleep they went back TO the days
when Vermont voted in September and
in the advertising they urge Republicans
to give Clement large vote for its eff.
feet on other states. With all states
voting next Tuesday, the effect Of Yer
mont's vote for governor on the other
states is about as much as a fly speck on
the wallpaper of your room.
Clement must lave given the Republi.
can managers a horrible nightmare, for
in their advertising they say, Vermont
representation in national party affairs
is exactly conditioned on Vermont's vote
for governor in The November election
Nothing else counts. Don't fail to vote.
This is not eamouhage. II is described
by shorter and uglier word. In ma.
tional Republican convention, each state
has twice as many delegates as it has
men in Congress. Vermont always has
eight delegates. Each state has ono
member Of the national committee. Tn.
less there is secret chamber in party
national affairs Of which common people
know nothing, Clements defeat win not
make one iota's difference in Vermont's
representation in national party affairs
If Clement in one short meeting can
cause the Republican managers TO stulti
fy themselves in their advertising,
shudder to think what effect he would
have on them during an administration
Of two years. He certainly would have
them all eating out of his hand.
The advertisement referred to above
speaks of the large amount of money
that Vermont must spend in the next
two years. The character of Clement
activities in his political campaigns, and
the character of the editorials in the Rut.
land Herald, which he owns and controls
convince me that he is not a good man t.
have charge of the important duties
which a governor of Vermont must per,
form
Would that the Republican managers
might wake up" and at least tell the
truth in their advertising2
Oh, Republicans Won't you wake uT
TO the seriousness of the present situa.
tion2 If you do, you will elect Mayo
next Tuesday, and confer blessing on
your party by Kidding it for all time Of
this Clement barnacle, which has at last
secured firm grip upon it.

MENACE TO SHEEP INDUSTRY
Dogs and Coyotes Constitute One Of
Greatest Drawback to Wool and
Mutton Business,

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Wool and mutton are commanding
higher prices than ever before and sup
plies Of wool are being depleted SO rap
idly that it will take some time after
peace is declared to restock the wool
trade, says Bulletin 935, 1.-THE Sheep
Killing Dog" issued by the United
States department Of agriculture.
The United States is experiencing
the greatest shortage Of mutton and
wool in the history Of the country. It
is the duty Of the American farmer to
increase the supply.
The sheep-killing dog constitutes one
OF the greatest menaces to the success
OF the sheep industry.
The dog not only kills sheep but
keeps out Of the sheep business men
who are otherwise inclined to 20 into
II.
The most effective method Of dealing
with the sheep-killing dog is through
efficient legislation.
Notable progress has been made By
several states in enacting good dog
laws. and others are expected to take
similar action.
No law, however well worded it may
be, can be effective unless 1t is en-
forced and has the moral support Of
the people who are affected by II.
Uniform state dog laws are desira-

FARM
ANIMALS
TO PREVENT WORMS IN PIGS
Especially Important 70 Proteet Newly
Farrowed AnImals From Intestinal
Parasites.

prepared by the UE:sed States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Recent Investigations have shown
the importance of taking special pre-
cautions with newly farrowed pigs to
prevent their becoming infested with
intestinal worms. Intestinal worms are
very common parasites among pigs,
and cause a great deal Of damage to
the young animals. 1t appears that al
they become older pigs become less
susceptible to infection. Accordingly,
II pigs can be protected from Infection
during the first few weeks Of life they
are less likely afterwards to be serious
ly injured by intestinal worms Of the
common variety.
The worms are spread by means OF
eggs Of microscopic size which are de-
posted by the adult worms In the in
testines Of infested pigs, and which
pass out Of the body in the feces. After
q period Of incubation which varies ac-
The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1918-06-07

ters.
cording to temperature and other con-
ditions, the egg contains tiny embry-
onic worm, and Is ready for further de-
velopment when swallowed by a pig.
The eggs are highly resistant and may
retain their vitality for years. 1t 10
therefore evident that in course Of time
the ground In yards where pigs are
kept may become very heavily laden
with the eggs Of the worms.
When the eggs are swallowed the
young worms hatch out, but do not i'm
mediately settle down in the intestine.
They get into the circulation and are
carried to various organs Of the body,
including the lungs. Meanwhile they
increase somewhat in size and undergo
certain changes Of structure. In q
week or ten days they can be found in
infected pigs examined post-mortem
crawling up the wtndpipe into the
mouth and down the esOphagus into
the stomach. In the normal course Of
events they finally reach the intestine
again, where they develop slowly to
maturity. Small pigs II their lungs are
intestinal worms are liable to develop
pneumonia, which may prove fatal. It
Is not improbable that many cases Of
lung trouble among young pigs are
caused by these worms.
The question of preventing losses
among young pigs by worms, judging
from the results of the Investigations
carried on in the geological division Of
the bureau Of animal industry, largely
resolves itself into a question Of pro-
viding good sanitary conditions for the
pigs, particularly during the sucking
period. The sows before farrowing
should be kept in clean, dry places
away from mud wallows, and until the
pigs are several weeks old they should
be kept preferably in buildings and
pens with floors which can be easily
cleaned and which are kept clean.

condition which, although
they would not even notice
II in any other occupation
they regard as dangerous In
fiying. In one OF the Texas
fields recently a lieutenant
with a reputation as a skilled
and careful aviator fell from
considerable height ana

nearest friends were unani-

fall was due to the fact that
he had not been getting
enough sleep. For week
he had been giving instruc-

all night, and had not been
able to sleep well during the
day.
