|, TREAT PIGS FOR WORMS.
GivetDose In Gelatine Capsule to Make
Sure POrker Gets It.

TO insure every pig getting his dose
Of worm medicine, 1t is good practice
to put vermifuge up in gelatine cap
sules. This saves medicine, too. They
are easy to give to the pigs II It Is
kept in mind to fast the pigs IS to a.
hours before treatment. Let the pigs
out OF the pen one at a time, and toss
before him small ball OF food con-
tanning the capsule. He will almost
always eat It SO quickly that he gets
the medicine surely and easily.
II you use capsule gun, be very
careful not to push it too far back
into the throat. Several herds have
lost large number Of pigs where
the sun was used roughly, from tear
ing Of the soft palate, says the veter-
mary extension man at Iowa State
college.
Another way is to set the pig up on
his launches and toss the capsule in
to his opened mouth and at the same
time follow It by small stream of
water from dose syringe. A table,
spoonful Of water will put down the
throat almost any capsule and with no
danger.
The following formula is recon-
mended from Ames for so pound
pig:
II Santonin 1 grains,
Calomel 2 grains,
Sodium Biscuit p. 8. to fill capsule.

TAKE CARE OF MANURE.

Throwing manure out Of the win
dows of the dairy barn and allowing
it to accumulate until the windows are
blocked by the accumulated pile is q
bad practice. The fertilizing mater
ial in manure is largely held by the
water contained in the manure and
nearly all is dissolved in water. The
pile Of manure is often under the caves
Of the barn, where water from the
roof washes It, After two or three
months, about half of the value is
gone. Ten cows will average about
so tons Of manure year, worth some
thing over 5000. Throwing 500 or
more away is poor sort OF conser-
walton, when hauling direct TO the
land, proper stacking or manure shed
would prevent it.
Barnyard manure is worth more
than 81 q ton.

THE FIFTH LIBERTY LOAN.

Charles H. Schweppe, Federal Re-
serve Director Of the Seventh District
Liberty Loan Organization. Chicago,
has issued the following statement re-
garding the Fifth Liberty loan. which
will be foated in the spring. Mr..
schweppe Judging the matter in the
light Of very wide experience in the
investment affairs, and as Liberty
loan executive in previous successful
campaigns, believes that the Fifth
loan will be fioated without difficulty
il the public can be made to under
stand that the Government must have
large amounts Of money to pay the
Victory bills, bring the conquering
American troops home, and clean up
the tremendous job Of saving Free
dom for the world. The official state
ment follows:
"The next loan, which I think will
be the last, should be called the Fifth
Liberty loan,' as the advertising value
of the term Liberty Loan is great and
should not be discarded. feel an
intensive campaign in the spring will
bring better results in the Seventh
Federal Reserve District than selling
bonds oyer the counter
I'm the Seventh District we will
use the same organization as
before, and / think we can count on
each and every Liberty loan worker
to help out. When the Fourth Liberty
loan campaign was over 1t was not
right for us to feel that our Jobs were
over. The governor Of our Federal
Reserve bank has sent out word that
he wished US to continue in Office.
II doubt if the Fifth Liberty loan
will be as hard to place as some an
ticipate. The money will be used to,
finance the task of bringing our men
home from France and to pay war
bills, and l cannot believe that there
is single representative of the Lib
erty loan organization in the Seventh
District who will not be ready 10 do
his or her full share.
"As to the kind of bond that may be
issued, feel short-term bond say
five years lat high rate of interest,
exempt only from the normal income
tax, would be more attractive than
one with a lower rate of interest ex-
empt from all Federal taxes. Such a
bond would have more appeal and
should be more popular.
I do not advocate having the banks
throughout the country underwrite the
next Liberty loan because I am con-
fident that the method used in the pre-
vious campaigns can again be used,
provided the Treasury Department
puts out bond with attractive invest

Historians Differ as to SUGAR.

Historians say that the sugar cane
was introduced by Columbus in Santo
Domingo, that it spread from that
island to Cuba and Mexico and that
the Portuguese introduced the cane
into Brazil, bringing it from Madeira.
Some authorities have said that sugar
cane was introduced into Louisiana in
1751 by Jesuit priests, who had 1t
brought from Santo Domingo, while
others give the date of the first plant
ing of sugar cane as 1887 and make no
reference TO its having been brought
in by the Jesuits.

ment features.
There is very large army OF Lib
erty loan workers in the Seventh Fed
eral District, and hope the Treasury
Department will recognized all those
people by issuing to them a certificate
in appreciation of their patriotic work.
Such certificate would be highly
priced by every recipient.
People should fully realize that
the United States is still maintaining
a large army Of occupation in Europe,
and during the period Of reconstruc-
ton will have many large expendi-
lures to make. We should all continue
to save what we can in anticipation OF
the next loan and be prepared to over
subscribe our quota. I believe the
Seventh District had the largest num-
Der of subscribers of any Federal
Reserve District in the Fourth loan,
numbering about 100000. To con-
tinue this very creditable record will
be distinct feather in our cap, and
II believe the Seventh District can do

When Man Ate Grass.

NJ. Marcel Baudouin, who has been
examining some human remains, dat
ing from the neolithic epoch (the
latest period of the stone age), has pre-
sented the Academy Of Science with
a curious report. The shape of the
incisor teeth of two young children
of this distant epoch leads him to the
conclusion that the present single root
teeth of human beings are in reality
a development from three germs, and
that man is descended from the herb
ivorOus animal with an ancestor pos
sessing 1872 dental germs.

Briefly Answered.

The English manner of today, of
what are called the classes, is the
growth of only century or so, John
Galsworthy writes in the Yale Re
view. There was probably nothing at
all-like it in the days of Elizabeth or
even of Charles II. The English man
ner was still racy when the inhabitants
of Virginia, as we are told, sent over
to ask that there might be dispatched
to them some hierarchical assistance
for the good Of their souls, and were
answered On your souls grow to-
bacco."

Many of the 1000 S. A. T. C. men
at the University of Iowa will keep
up the $4,000 insurance policies
taken out during the war, it
is believed. The policies are now

death and total disability. The

five years after the termination of
the war the terms of the insurance
shall be converted into the ordinary
form, as requested by the soldier

its first and only tryout in the spring

THE FIFTH LIBERTY LOAN.

A large percentage of the money
which will be subscribed to the Fifth
Liberty loan will 60 toward the re-
Mobilization Of wounded men. The
United States government is resolved
to do its utmost to restore every
wounded American soldier and sailor
to health, strength and self-support-
ing activity. He will not be discharg-
ed from the hospital until all the med
ical and surgical treatment necessary
to restore him to health has been CIV
en- him, under the jurisdiction OF mill
tary or naval authorities, according
to the branch of the service he is in,
Then his future will be considered
by the Federal Board for Vocational
education. II he has been disabled In
such way that he cannot take up the
work he left to go into the country's
service. large vocational field is
opened up to him, with wide choice
Of occupations. He is carefully train
ed to self-supporting activity.
II he needs an artificial limb or me-
chanical appliance, the government
will supply 1t free, keep 1t In repair
and renew 1t when necessary. II,
after his discharge from the hospital,
he again needs medical treatment on
account Of his disability. the govern
ment will supply it free. While he is
in the hospital and while in training
afterwards the soldier or sailor will
receive compensation as II In the SER
vice and his family or dependents will
receive their allotments.
Also, wounded soldier or sailor,
regardless Of whether his disability
prevents him from taking up his for
mer employment, may take course
in vocational training, free of cost,
and the war-risk insurance compensa-
ton will be paid him during the time
Of training. In this case no allotment
will be paid to his family.
The training branches, with their
thousands Of trained instructors, will
use millions Of the nations dollars,

That's one of the reasons why the
Fifth Liberty loan must be oversub-
scribed, The first three loans launch
ed America in the war--built training
camps and equipped and sent men ov-

fighting" loan, backed up the fighting
men and made Overwhelming victory
for the allies possible. The Fifth or
Victory loan will be just as important
in the annals ofswar loans, for both
moral and material reasons. America
would be monstrously ungrateful
should she not stay with her men in
khaki and blue until they are returned
to their homes, physically strong and
able to earn livelihood. The best way
for every person to show his personal
gratitude is to start now planning how
much he can subscribe to the Fifth
loan.
