JOSEPH A. SLOAN, OF ANACORTES WASH
Wilson Presidential Elector 1870

worker of a minimum wage adequate
to meet all the conditions of in
dividual, family and community life
these and other rights of labor
must be maintained, for they are
more than war needs-they are hu-
man rights.
The great democratic accomplish
ments which have made America
united and invincible as she has gone
forth to war for her birth-right,
must be landmarks of progress from
which we go forward as a people to
larger democratic service. They must
not be considered mere temporary
war-measures, from which to turn
backward towards autocracy in in
dustry and private monopoly in pub
lie utilities and public resources.
1t is plainly evident that Presi-
dent Wilson will need support in this
reconstruction period for democracy
in Peace no less than for war. AL
ready the line of division on after
war policies shows signs of a break
along partisan tendencies. Peace and
reconstruction support of President
Wilson will mean as much to Ameri-
can democracy in 1919 and 1920 as
war-support in 1917 and 1918. Con-
sequently candidates for Congress
should be measured by their capacity
to meet future needs, as we'll as their
past records. 1t is time to place
none but proven, fundamental be-
levers and workers on guard for
the home safety of democracy.
Judged by these standards, Joseph
A. Sloan will meet every test. His
democracy is not merely partisan,
but the passion of a lifetime study
and devotion. He is indeed worthy
and well-fitted for truest public SER
vice in the position for which he
has been nominated. The voters of
the Second Congressional District
will make no mistake in electing
Joseph A. Sloan for Congress, if
they desire representative who will
support President Wilson in sus-
tanning the war for democracy to
its righteous conclusion, and also in
establishing enduring foundations for
the Peace and world-democracy to
follow.
Very truly yours,
GEO. F. COTTERILL.

GEO. T. COTTERiLL'S
END0RS ENIENT OF
JOSEPH A. SLOAN

No stronger Endorsement of the
candidacy of Joseph A. Sloan for
congressman from the Second Dis
trict could be made than that of
George F. Cotterill in a letter to
this paper, for Mr.. Cotterill is one
of the best known workers in the
state in behalf of prohibition and
progressive legislation. He was for
merly mayor of Seattle, was a can
didate for United States senator and
is now state highway engineer. The
letter follows:
Olympia, October goth, 1918.
Editor Labor Journal:
Dear Sir-I note with qualification
your support of Joseph A. Sloan, the
democratic nominee for Congress in
the Second District. The people
need just such man at Washing
ton,
These are days when America is
making good" in the great cause of
democracy which gave her birth.
Confronted by the aggressive chal-
lenge of an autocratic world-enemy,
America is daily demonstrating the
organized powers Of a great de-
mocracy compelled to war to end
war, and to remove the cause of
war.
President Wilson truly leads,
voices and inspires this mighty move
ment Of democracy at its best SER
vice for others. America is indeed
living up to its symbolized express
ion in the gift of France, Liberty
Englightening the World" while at
the same time repaying in full
measure the great debt of gratitude.
But let none forget that in GRID
ing for the mighty effort which is
bringing liberation to the oppressed
peoples Of earth and protection to
ourselves, America has more than
ever democratized herself. Again it
has been found that the remedy for
every weakness of democracy lies in
supplying more democracy.
And these sources of strength for
war must be preserved for the COM
mon good in the enduring period of
Peace which is being bought at so
great a price.
The American people must con-
tinue in government control of their
railways, telegraphs, telephones and
other public utilities. The billions
Of Liberty Bonds which are being in
vested in thousands of ships, must
be kept in aforementioned

marine, manned by sailors serving
under American conditions of labor.

milton Of the right of collective bar

PREVENTION OF HOG
CHOLERA DISCUSSED

FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind, July ~
At regular meeting Of the Registered
Mems Association OF New Garden
township, j. c. Kline. county agent,
spoke to the registered men and farm.
ers Of the township on prevention and
treatment of hog cholera.
The first speech Of the evening was
given by Hal Pod Of Richmond and
was in the nature Of a patriotic ad-
dress
In Wayne county twelve out Of ev-
cry hundred hogs die each year. the
county agent said, and that makes q
loss Of 355. 900 hogs annually In this
county The most Of these die from
cholera alone.
The cholera disease is divided into
three classes. he said, the acute, the
sub-acute and the chronic. When the
hog has an acute case he Is sick about
seven days and seldom RECEIVERS. In
the sub-acute cases the hog Is sick
two weeks and usually gets well. In
the chronic cases the hog is sick about
six weeks and seldom RECEIVERS.
The county agent advised farmers
against using any Of the so-called rem
edies for cholera, because as far as
known there is no cure for the dis
ease. He said that the remedies had
been tested and were pure fakes"
He told how to vaccinate the hogs
for cholera and said the animals
should not be vaccinated until they

save q second vaccination.
The Purdue serum Is absolutely
pure. he said. and Is made by experts.
The county agent advised the farm
ers not to buy the usual run Of fertil-
izers. The usual factory fertilizer Is
twenlve per cent Of real fertilizer. he
said. and the other ei8hty-eight per
cent. Is hller which il nothing more
nor less than fine sand and gravel.
He said that the farmer could pur-
chase the material to make the fertil-
ixer and make 1t himself much cheaper
than he could buy II and that way
save paying freight on all the extra
grovel that is in the fertilizer.
He also advised the farmers to be
very careful about the kind Of seed
wheat they used as there may be
weavel and other trouble In the wheat
and II that kind is planted q poor crop
will be the result.
After the speech q business meet
ing was held and a motion that the
registered men drill with the Liberty
Guards was considered and voted
down.

RED WEEv|L FOUND
IN WHEAT FIELDS
(RY ]. c. kIinel

Several fields OF wheat are badly
infected with the larva Of small fly
commonly called the red weevil
Since this insect Is very detrimental
and since a number Of fields are badly
infected In Wayne county, am pub
fishing methods Of combating 1t, and
the history Of the insect.
The wheat nudge, conntarinia tri-
tici, commonly called the red weevil,'
is very small, delicate fly which ap-
pears on the wing sometime in June,
usually about the date when the fire
flies first appear and the blossoms of
the locust trees are fading and falling
to the ground. The eggs are laid in
cavity or groove at the upper end
of the outermost chaff, so that the
young maggots, on Matching, can readi-
ly reach the incipient kernel. These
reddish larvae imbibe nourishment
from the milky kernel, ceasing to feed
otter the grain becomes hard When
full grown they seek the earth, gen.
orally by crawling down the stalk
when 1t is wet with dew or by sliding
down in raindrop. Going about one
half inch beneath the surface, they
make cocoons not larger than mustard
seeds, very difficult to find, in which
they remain until the following sum-
mer when they again issue as flies.
However, many of the larvae have not
1ft the heads by harvest time and
these are carried into the barn or
stack; they soon become dry and
shrink away from their skins, becom-
ing ceased larvae" these do not feed :;
they again become active when thor
oughly moistened, even after having
lain quiescent for more than half a
year. Since the chair from the thresh-
ing machine contains countless num-
bers of these ceased larvae" 1t should
be promptly burned; the bulk Of the
