Just as Good as Any.

While Reginald Wright Kaufman
the writer and war correspondent, was
in town last week, he spent much of
his time in the lobby of the Hotel Sew
erin talking with the guests.
Because he has spent much time on
the western battle front the war was
the usucl topic. When one member of
an interested group asked Mr.. Kaufr-
man When the war would end, he re-
piled:
Il shall not answer you like I heard
General Foch answer an American

was an ambitious young chap who had
not been in Paris long. One morning

In his amusing book, "Old Irish
Life" Mr. L. nj. Caldwell tells a story
of young peasant woman-Sally
Sweeny-who used to walk into Gal
way twice week to do shopping for
his family
She could neither read nor write. yet
she never made mistake with any of
the messages that were intrusted to
her.
Once, however, her memory did fail
her. One of the ladies of the family
had commissioned her to bring back a
yard of satin, and the unaccustomed
word had slipped out of Sally's recol-
lection.
She did not allow herself to be beat
en-. however. and made an effort to re-
call the word; so she went into the
principal shop in Galway still thinking
hard.
''What is't that We call the divil ?" she
asked. with it's not divil that We say
to him?"

The narrowing house or pen should
be comfortably warm, we'll ventilated,
and well lighted. Above all else, it
should be we'll bedded. Do not allow
any circulation of air under the floor.
Too many hog growers make the mis-
take Of bedding too lightly. Heavy
bedding naturally makes the SOW COM
Portable and warm-conditions neces-
sary If she is to be quiet. Use wheat
or rye straw. Wild hay is good, as is
millet. Do not use oat straw unless
there is absolutely nothing else at
hand
Do not confine the SOW in her far
rowing pen more than 4S hours before
narrowing time if it is possible to avoid
doing so. Reduce the heavy feed to
some extent, probably about half, for
that length of time.
Under no circumstances should the
SOW have any feed whatever for "a
hours after narrowing. She must how
ever, have plenty of water at frequent
intervals. This water must not be icy
cold-that drawn directly from the
well is about the right temperature.
Commence after "a hours feeding light
1y, increasing the feed gradually for
probably week or ten days, when she
may be gotten onto full feed, condi-
toned on the size of the litter and the
milking qualities of the SOW.
A good herdsman, for the first week
at least after narrowing, will look the
pigs over carefully before each feed
ing. If any indications of scours ap-
pear, the sow's feed should be reduced

fewer HOGS DIE OF DISEASE
annual Death Rate for Year Ending
March, 1918, Reaches Lowest
..st.e Mark in 35 Years.

Frepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Inc death rate of swine from all
diseases for the year ending March,
1913, was 42.1 per 1000, and is the
lowest in IS years, according to rec
ords kept during that period. This
unprecedentedly low rate of mortality
presents great contrast with those
OF earlier periods, particularly with
the losses of 1888 per 1000 in 1887,
IA per 1000. in 1897, and 1889 per
1000 in 1914, years marked by severe
outbreaks of hog cholera. This is even
q remarkable reduction from the nor
NAL low rate Of losses which has re-
manned slightly above 50 per 1000
when the disease was least prevalent.
The approximate number of hogs on
hand January 1, 1918, was 71,374,O 600.
The loss Of 42.1 per 1000 for the year
ending March, 1913. therefore repre-
sented approximately 100000 of these
animals, equivalent to the consumption
of pork and pork products by the en-
tire population of the United States
for 1917 for 25 days.
These recent losses should be COM
pared with that of 100000 hogs in
1914, which curtailed production to the
extent of the national consumption fo,.
:: that year for 81 days.
The marked reduction in the losses
of swine in 1918 over preceding
periods, in view Of the fact that 80 per
cent of these losses are due to hog
cholera, indicates clearly the benefit
from the combined efforts Of state and
federal agencies in protecting the
farmers against the ravages of this
exceedingly fatal disease.
