Hog Cholera

About so or so hogs in Carroll
county have died Of cholera this
winter, and it has required the
vaccination of about 500 head to
bring the situation under control.
According to 9. Fl. Moody, county
agricultural agent, most of this
could have been avoided by OBJ
serving the following rules when
the first outbreak was observed:
1. Burn all carcasses of hogs
dying Of cholera.
2. Don't buy, sell, or move
hogs from a sick herd or infected
territory.
The law is very strict on these
points, and in spreading cholera
by violation of these laws a serious
crime is committed. Hogs are too
high and meat too scarce 10 this
country to be lost through care
lessness. When your neighbours
hogs get sick immediately notify
a veterinarian or the county agri-
cultural agent.

NEW SUPERINTENDENT
Prof. John }. HendfieksOn Is
Highly Commended

Prof. John j. Hendrickson, who
takes Prof. j. II. Bayer's place at
the |. L. S., comes from Green
field, Tenn, and comes highly
commended as a man and as a
teacher. He took charge this week
and is making a very fine impress
sion upon our people. Last weeks
Greenfield Times contained the
following with reference to him:
Prof. John j. Hendrickson, Of
the Greenfield Training School, re-
signed his position last Thursday
night and his resignation was ac-
cepted by the school board. He
leaves here to take charge of the
Industrial and Training School at
Huntingdon, which is a large board
ing school. We regret very much
to give up Prof. Hendrickson and
his very interesting family, but
wish for them the greatest success
in their new field. The resignation
came as a surprise to the school.
The professor gave as his reason
that he had an opportunity to make
more and that the opportunity to
build up a large school was greater.
The professor says he is leaving
Greenfield with the best of feeling
for everone, and that he shall ever
be a friend to this school and the
people of Greenfield. Prof. Hen
erickson is a school man Of :he
very highest type, and we recon-
mend him to the good people of
IIuuVl1EhOu'
Mrs. Hendrickson also resigned
her place, and will take charge Of
the dormitory at Huntingdon. She
has made many friends while here,
who regret to lose her. The other
teachers will remain and the school
will 60 on as usual.

INCOME TAX RETURNS
Officer Coming TO Huntingdon to
Help Make List

1t will require a small army Of
men to take the income tax returns
of persons subject to the new law.
Collector Of Internal Revenue
E. B. Craig started 40 officers
from his headquarters on January
1, and on January 2 every one of
them was on the job in the county
assigned him to meet the people
and help them make out their In
come tax returns. The officer as
signed to this county is due to ar
rive at Huntingdon on January 81,
and to remain here until January
81, both dates inclusive.
1t will be we'll for every unmar-
ried person, whose net Income for
1911 is $1,000 or over, and every
married person living with his
wife or husband whose net income
for 1917 is $4,000 or over, to call
on the income tax man and learn
whether or not they have any tax
to pay. The person subject to tax
who doesn't make return in the
time prescribed, is going to regret
it. The government will get after
all income tax slackers.
There's hardly a business man,
merchant or professional man who
won't have to make return of in
come. Farmers, as a class, will
have to pay the tax. The safe
thing to do is for every person
who had total income of 81, 900
or So. 900, as the case may De, and
who is not sure about what de-
auctions the law allows him, to
play it safe BY calling on the in
come tax man.
The man in the field will have
forms for everybody, and persons
who expect to call on, him need not
trouble themselves to write the in
ternal revenue Office for them.

TAKE OVER RAILROADS
Secretary McAdoo Named Direc-
tor General

Government possession and OPP
Grafton of the nations railroads
for the duration of the war was
proclaimed by President Wilson
Wednesday night, December 26,
to become effective at noon Friday,
December 80. William G. Nc
Adoo, retaining his place in the
cabinet as secretary Of the treas
ury, was placed in charge as di-
rector-general of railroads.
Every railroad engaged in gen
eral transportation, with its APP
purtenance. including steamship
lines, was taken over and all sys-
TENS will be operated as one under
the director-general.
The presidents move, although
forcasted for weeks, came as a
great surprise to everybody, IL
Guiding railrord officials. He acted
through Secretary of War Baker,
under authority conferred in the
army appropriation act.
Direct management of the roads
will remainin the hands of rail-
road officials and the railroad war
board, composed of five railroad
heads, will continue to direct act
ual operations under Secretary Nc
Adoo's general supervision.
The practical effect of govern
ment operation will be to permit
a complete unification OF all rail
systems, impossible under private
operation by reason of statutes
prohibiting pooling of rail traffic
and earnings. The roads them
selves had gone as far as they
dared in this direction and it be-
came known that they had been
warned by Attorney General Greg
DRY that a violation Of anti-pool-
ing laws could not be permitted.

MORALS OF SOLDIER GOOD
Their Conduct In Accord With Finest
American Traditions.


Correspondence Of the Associated Press.)
LONDON, March 20.-"Ten weeks
spent in the war zone convinces me
that the morale and morals of the
American soldier in France are in full
accord with the finest traditions of
American arms and a credit to the
social and religious standards of
American society,"" said DR.. Daniel A.
Polling, of Boston, associate president
of the United Society of Christian
Associated Press when he arrived in
London on his way to America.
my investigations" DR.. Polling said,
carried me into every American land
ing port in France; into rest camps
and training camps, and for ten days
was practically in our front line, in
cluding two nights and three days in
front-line dugout. l was with our
men all the time, l messed with
them, slept with them and experienced
two barrages with them.
My whole experience convinced me
that the administration of our war
activities in France is amazingly eff
cient Our railroads, our camps, our
food, our water supply, and our rapid
ly increasing military equipment are
miracles of swift and thorough
achievement
In the business of keeping our SOL
nh nd
program of our military authorizes
is the most comprehensive and ag-
gressive ever laid out by a nation at
war The stories of wholesale drunken
ness and vice circulated in some quar-
ters at home concerning the AmeIi-
can Expeditionary Force were false.
While some men and groups of men
have committed grave excesses and
shamed their uniforms, the small num-
ber of those in proportion to the total
number under arms is a source of
qualification and pride to every citi-
zen who believes in the moral sound
ness of American society. My own
Investigations substantiate the figures
already made public by the Army
Medical department, which prove that
the American soldier in France is
living on a higher moral plane than
the moral plane of American civilian
life. General Pershing and his assO-
ciates deserve not a resolution of in
quiry and censure but a vote of con-
fidence, and the assurance of the ma
tion's wholehearted cooperation and
support.
THE work of the Young Mems
Christian Association in the American
army zone cannot fail to receive the
enthusiastic commendation of every
visitor The organizations many-sided
work makes it the mightiest con-
struciye agency of. its kind in
