TO HELP THE HOG RAIsERs

The state live stock sanitary board is
 taking great deal of interest in hog
 raising, approaching the fact that a hog
 crop is good one, and that it takes
 no longer than to produce a crop of corn or cotton, It has been found that cholera IS the greatest drawback to success in
 this industry and for that reason the
 board IS urging Congress to set aside annually half million dollars for the suppression and eradication of the dis ease. With that end in view the board. at recent meeting in Jackson, adopted series of resolutions calling attention to the importance of hog raising and to the good work that has been done by agents of the United States bureau of aa- lmal industry in this state. P. P. Gar ner, commissioner of agriculture, has written personal letter to each Missis- slpp1 representative at Washington, in which 1t is insisted they use their best efforts to secure a permanent annual ap- propriation of $5O0,000 to be used in SUD- pressing cholera. He also encloses a copy of the resolutions adopted by the board and which read, in part, as follows: Whereas The importance of the work
 of the United States bureau of animal
 industry, through it's force of veterina-
 rians in cooperation with the state au-
 thorities, is manifest by the results ob-
 tained in this state, and
 Whereas, The uncertainty of a suffi-
 cient appropriation, under the present.
 system of making emergency appropria-
 tions, fails to guarantee continuation
 of the work to its present and contem-
 plated efficiency; and
 Whereas, Notwithstanding the fact that
 losses from hog cholera have been re- duced 50 per cent in the last four years
 the disease destroyed sS2, 900 worth of
 hogs in the year ending March 31, 1918, and that
 Whereas, We feel that to discontinue the work of hog cholera control would be detrimental to the whole country; therefore, be it
 Resolved, by the Mississippi live stock sanitary board, That we recommend that our national Congress provide a. regular and permanent annual appropriation of s5o0,00o to be used for and to insure the continuation of hog cholera control work in the United States

70 HOURS PAY FOR
8 HOURS IN WOODS
WORKING CONDITIONS IN THE
SPRUCE CAMPS ARRANGED
By COLONEL DISQUE.

Workmen for the government in
the forests of the Pacific Northwest
are to receive pay for eight hours at
the same rate as the 10 hours pay
heretofore in effect, and for all time
worked above eight hours in any day
they will be paid at the rate of time
and a half. All differences between
the men and their employers arising
hereafter will be referred to Colonel
Brice P. Disque, director of the
spruce production bureau. and both
sides will abide by his decisions.
Agreement upon these points was
the chief accomplishment of con-
ference in Portland the fore part of
this week between Colonel Disque
and delegates from the various
spruce districts representing the
Loyal Legion of Loggers and Lum-
bermen. All spruce districts of Ore
gon and Washington were repre-
sented.
Colonel Disque told the men that
very soon they would not have to
provide their own bedding, as the
government is purchasing 100000
blankets for them. A fixed price OF
$7.35 a week for board at all log
ging camps and sawmills was an
nounced. Improved sanitary condi-
tions in the drying rooms also were
promised by Colonel DisQue.
Colonel Disque declared his belief
that the workers will accomplish as
much work in eight hours as has
been done in 10.
Sixty representatives Of Oregon
and Washington timber workers
and shingle weavers' unions. at a
meeting in Seattle Monday. voted to
oust all disloyal workers from their
ranks. The delegates also adopted
a resolution declaring that the log
gers and timber workers in their
unions were squarely behind the
governments war program.
They officially called off the
strike for the 8-hour day, started
last summer and announced that
Northwestern loggers and timber
workers will wage a whirlwind cam
paign to oust the I. w. w. from the
camps and mills.
