SENTENCE
FOR B0L0 PAShA
AND ACC0MPL|CE
Court martial DeIiberates Only
Is Minutes; Accountant In
voIved Receives 3 Years
Imprisonment.

Paris, Feb. 14.-Polo Pasha was
sentenced to death this afternoon.
The court-martial which condemned
Bolo Pasha to death deliberated for
only IS minutes.
Darius Porchere, an accountant who
was a co-defendant, was sentenced to
three years imprisonment. ...
Filippo Cavallinie, another code
.fendant, who is under arrest in Italy,
was sentenced to death. although he
is not within the courts jurisdiction.
Paul Bolo Pasha' court-martial was
one of the first of the so-called cases
of intelligence with the enemy" and
came UP for trial before the third
court-martial of Paris on February 4.
Bolo Pasha was charged with having
capitalized the company that bought
the Paris newspaper LIE Journal with
money obtained from the Germans.
Bolo Pasha was an instrument of
German propaganda, one of the first
to find exposure in the French inves-
legations of 1917, and his name has
come to be used as typifying the en-
tire system OF "Boloism," by which
Germany 'strove to break down the
French morale and instil desire for
peace by spreading the idea that Ger
many could not be beaten and that it
would be we'll to make the best terms
possible with her as soon as they
could be arranged.
Huge Sums From Germany.
1t had been charged that Germany,
in attempting to bribe French states
men and leaders and to influence
French opinion by subsidizing news
papers in France or founding new
publications to disseminate the spirit
of pacifism or defeat, voted a sum
of money in the neighborhood of
100000 marks. Bolo, himself, was
said to have had the use of a fund
of more than $1,500,000 to be used in
attempting to corrupt the French
press.
Darius Porchere, a co-defendant
with Bolo Pasha, who was sentenced
to three years Imprisonment, is a
business agent who was charged with
receiving correspondence relating to
the affair as an intermediary of Bolo
Pasha.
Filippo Cavallinie, who was judged
by default and sentenced to death, is
a former member of the Italian cham
Der of deputies.
He was charged with having intro
duced Bolo Pasha to Abbas Hilmni,
the former khedive of Egypt, and with
having facilitated the negotiations.
Captain Mornet acted as prosecut-
ing attorney for the military authori-
ties.
Involved United States Banks.
The files in the case contained no
less than 1000 separate documents,
some of which, including the Amer
lcan report and the report of M. Doy-
Ell, an expert accountant, were of sew
eral hundred pages each.
Bolo Pasha's activities were of pc
culiar interest to America because it
was charged that of the funds at his
disposal $1,683000 was transferred
from the Deutsche bank in Berlin to
France by way of New York. 1t was
as a result of the discovery of his
manipulation of this fund through five
New York banking houses that the
New York state attorney general was
able to obtain information which was
forwarded to NJ. Jusserand, the
French ambassador at Washington,
and which brought about Bolo's ar
rest in Paris.

HOW TO AVOID TUBERCULOSIS
Disease Renders More Pork UNIT for
Human Food Than Any Other
Trouble Except Cholera.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
With the exception Of hog cholera.
tuberculosis renders more pork unfit
for human food than any other disease.
In 1916, under federal inspection. which
represents only 90 per cent of hogs
slaughtered in the United States, there
were found infected with tuberculosis
594, 10S hogs. which were condemned
in part or in whole, nearly as many
as were raised In the entire state OF
New York for that year. Aside from
the monetary loss sustained from tu-
berculosis, the fact that 1t Is transmits
sible to the human makes II doubly
important that strict measures for Its
eradication be inaugurated.
Hogs contract tuberculosis chiefly
from dairy cows, which are also very
subject to tuberculosis. The disease
in COW infects her milk system, her
lungs, and her throat with tubercle
bacilli-the germs which cause tuber-
culosis in men and animals. Some OF
these germs escape from the cow In
her milk or In her droppings, or she
may cough them out on feed or bed
ding. Hogs get the disease from the
raw milk or droppings, or feed infected
by tuberculous cow. Pasteurized or
cooked milk will not pass the disease
from infected cows 60 other animals.
Therefore, to protect hogs from tu-
berculosis and to make sure that the
feed will be turned into meat instead
of into fertilizer
/. See that all milk, especially all
skim milk from the creamery Is pas
teurized or cooked before 1t is fed to
the hogs.
4 2.NKeep the hogs from following
dairy cattle unless the cattle are tu-
berculin tested. Keep them out of COW
lots and barns, and keep dairy drain
age out of hog lots. Hogs can follow
steers without much danger.
3. Give healthy hogs chance to
keep healthy. Give them clean, we'll
drained lots and plenty of fresh air,
sunlight, and clean water. Shelter
them in well-lighted and ventilated,
sanitary hog houses. Keep the houses
clean and use plenty Of whitewash
and disinfectants.
II there was tuberculosis In your
swine last year, it is safest to get rid
Of the herd, especially the breeding
animals, and raise clean hogs from
fresh stock.

PROTEIN ESSENTIAL TO sow
Strength and vigor at narrowing
Time Necessary for Young Animals
to Do Their Best.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agrlculture.)
Every hog grower knows that IL he
is going to have pigs that will do
their best from the start they must
necessarily be strong and vigorous at
narrowing time. Proper care Of the
brood SOW usually lnsures such pigs,
and one essential included In this
proper care is feeding the brood sow
ration containing q good percentage
of protein.
Protein feeds In the form of shorts,
tankage, oil meal, or alfalfa hay should
be supplied. Self-feeders can be used
for these feeds, and it is quite sue
cessful to grind the alfalfa hay. Sows
will eat larger percentage Of alfalfa
hay fed in the ground form than
when fed in racks unground. This
alfalfa Is generally cheaper on the
corn-belt farms than any of the other
protein feeds end Is a good balance
to the corn ration.

middllngs and tanknge.
Lot one. settled on cornmeal and
tankage, made an average daily
gain of 1.61 pounds, or slightly more
rapid gains than lot two, which was
fed by the self-feed plan on shelled
corn and tankage, and made daily gain
of 1.53 pounds. Both these lots made
more rapid gains than the pigs in lot
three, which were hand fed on corn
meal, middllngs and tankage. Lot one.
however. required 81 pounds more
grain than lot two to produce 100
pounds of gain. The most expensive
gains were made on lot three (the
handled lott. where 1901 pounds Of
mixed feeds were required to produce
100 pounds of gain. The gains were
very profitable In all lots but shelled
corn and tankage settled produced
the best results.
These tests are borne out by results
obtained at number of state expert
ment stations. In all nearly 600 pigs
have been used In tests at these sta
tons. and the results show clearly that
more rapid gains are obtained with
the self-feeder than by the best hand
feeding methods, partly owing to the
larger daily consumption of feed per
head, pounds compared to 5.47
pounds, and partly owing to the more
efficient use Of grain feed. These tests
show that the average daily gain per
head by the handled method was 1.2;}
pounds, and by the settled method
1.92 pounds. The average amount of
feed per 100 pounds of gain was AS
pounds by the handled method. and
Alt pounds by the settled methods.

Animal Diseases and Parasites.
II has been estimated that diseases
OF animals, such as hog cholera, tuber-
culosis, contagious abortion, dourine,
Texas or tick fever. and others, cause
annual losses aggregating many mil
lions. Many of these diseases. to n
still greater extent, can be prevented
or their rnvages reduced considerably.
The department has greatly extended
its facilities for dealing with these
matters and will assist farmers In
every feasible way.
The annual losses from insects and
plant diseases are enormous, II has
been conservatively estimated that
SHUTS of-wheat alone cause losses ng-
gregating $60,OO0,O00 annually. The

Young Pigs Helping Themselves.
pigs had free access at all times to
the three feeds placed In separate
compartments of the self-feeder. The
handled pigs were given ration con-

pounds Of middlings, and pound Of
tankage. They ate total of 2,6045
pounds of feed and gained 675 pounds,

middlings and 1 pound of tankage.
They consumed total Of ABB pounds
of feed and gained 1913 pounds, maxi
ing an average daily gain Of 1852
pounds. In this lot II required 1904
pounds Of grain to produce 100 pounds

rapid gains by consuming larger
daily ration in proportion to live

tests in which the self-feeder and
