the South several pounds daily have
been fed with success. The more IA

ing it in connection with grains and
blackstrap molasses. Cottonseed meal
is not palatable to horses. In most
cases not more than two pounds daily

before that limit is reached special
note should be taken of it's effect. Most
horse feeders prefer the use of oil
meal. The following rations are sug-

PIGS
ARE A MEANS
OF W|NN|NGWAR
If Every Farmer in the Valley Would
Keep a Pig or Two the Pork Pro-
ductiOn Of the State Would Be I'M
mensely Increased-Plan of Farm
Adviser in This Respect.

Considerable comment has been
created by the announcement of the
Keep a Pig" movement launched by
the Farm Bureau in the county. 1t
appears to be in line with the other
war activities that Imperial county
farmers have so generously support
ed. 1t is stated by the farm adviser,
c. E. Sullivan, that the number of pigs
saved in this way probably will be
greater in Imperial county than in
any other.
The project has been most heartily
approved by the Food Administration
as war emergency activity. In an
article which was sent by Mr.. Cum
ningham to the Farm Bureau it is
-iown that the cured pork products
are the easiest to handle in shipping
to Europe, ard will be in constantly
greater demand. The government pro-
poses to purchase considerable pro-
portion of the cured pork produced in
the United States for direct shipment
to Europe.
Not only is pork to be sent to Eu-
rope to supply the army, but impor-
tations into California have already
been stopped by the Food Administra-
ton, so that California, which is nor
mally a pork importing state, will ex-
port pork products with cur: allied
supply of live hogs, which will create
keen local demand. 1t is pointed out
dby the committee that on this ac-
count the product is an important one,
because California will depend on it's
own supply for the pork consumed. 1t
the people of California want to eat
pork they will have to produce it, and
and the plan of pig on every farm
will no doubt help in the local situ-
alton.
The farmers of Imperial Valley have
performed every duty in connection
with the war, in spite of unusually
hard conditions, and apparent injus-
tice, but the reports received by the
farm Bureau indicate that the farm
ers of Imperial county will again rise
to the situation and carry out the
program of a pig on every farm.

Pekin, Feb. Is (By mail)-In spite
of active quarantine measures adopt
ed somewhat reluctantly by Chinese
authorities, the pneumonia plague,
which has been prevalent for several
weeks in northern Shansi and inner
Mongolia still causes apprehension in
the capital. The total deaths now
run into thousands.
The proximity of the infected dis
trict to the capital-Shansi is the
adjoining province on the west-and
its direct real connection, made the
danger of the infection reaching Pc
kin very real one.
1t is due to the efforts of DR..
Charles D. Tenney, Chinese secretary
of the American legation; S. Barton,
Chinese secretary of the British lega-
ton; Captain Pelliot of the French
legation and DR.. Funatsu of the Jap
anese legation, acting as committee
representing the diplomatic corps, who
took upon themselves the work of in
vestigating and making recommends
/, tions to the central government, that
the scourge is still more or less con-
fined to northern Shansi.
On their recommendation, General
Chang, former chief of Peking gen.
darmes, was appointed chief of the
Plague Committee in active charge of
establishing quarantine stations. Traf-
fic on the Peking- -Kalgan railway was
suspended and strict inspection insti-
tuted on the, Penking- -Hankow line.
Quarantine stations were provided at
all approaches through the Great Wall
and staff of experienced men sent
into the district to investigate and
isolate, so far as possible, all suspect
ed cases.
DR.. Young, head of the Union Med
ical College, and several other foreign
doctors, have volunteered their serv-
ices and are fighting the plague.
A report compiled by Shansi provin-
cial magistrates covering fourteen
towns showed that up to January 27
there had been 233 deaths, and this
represents small area of the infect
ed territory.
Greatest difficulty was experienced
at the inception Of the quarantine
campaign due to superstitious aversion
by the populace to efforts of foreign
investigators. Drs. Eckfelt and Lewis,
after an autopsy had been performed
to prove to the local magistrates the
existence of the plague, were besieged
in their quarters for several days by
a mob led by the father of the sus-

WITH N. S. POWER |
RUMORS THAT MILLS WOULD
BUY OUTSIDE POWER
ARE FALSE
NEW ULM CEREAL MILL is NOW
USING CITY JUICE AFTER
3-DAY SHUTDOWN

Rumors to the effect that the two
big mills of the city intend to secure
power from the Northern States Power
Company have no foundation at the
present time. Some inquiries had been
made concerning cost of securing power
from the Northern States people, not
with the intentions OF Immediately
making any. changes but it was done
more for the purpose of securing a
comparative knowledge of what power
costs are. It is true that the Power
Company are prepared to come into
New Ulm if they get any encouragement
but it is not likely that this will take place
for considerable time at any rate.
Breakdown at N. u r.
The dynamo at the New Ulrn Roller
Mill broke down last week Thursday and
the mill was obliged to shut down for
several days. Owing to the impossibility
of securing anything to replace the
detective machinery because manu-
facturers are so far behind ON their
orders that it would be likely to be two
or three months before the dynamo
order could be filed, the mill purchased
from the city light plant the motor
which was formerly used at the hill
reservoir and it has been installed and
the cereal mill is now running on city
power. This is not permanent ar
1angement but will hold until the mill
can again be equipped with its own plant.
Wheat Mill Thru
The wheat mill at the New Tim Roller
plant is shut down as they have ground
their allotment of rs per cent. They
are, however, taking care of all their
local trade as the Federal regulations
allow them to grind enough for this
purpose but they may not ship any
carload lots. The end of March marks
the end of the third quarter of the crop
year and the mill may possibly be
allowed to grind after that, provided no
further restrictions are placed on flour
manufacturers. In the meantime, they
expect to use the wheat mill as a rye
mill. They turned out one car load of
flour for government purposes last week
but are not running at the present time
Eagle Will Grind Till April
The Eagle Mill still has enough Of
it's allotment left to keep the wheels
turning until about April SO they do
not expect to be shut down very long
unless the restrictions are continued
after that date.

ORDERS
HOLD Up SUPPLIES
CITY PUMPING OUTFIT NOT
COMPLETE FOR LACK OF
SEVERAL PARTS
STREET IMPROVEMENTS CALL
FOR SPECIAL ATTENTION OF
CITY COUNCIL

AT special meeting of the City
Council held last Tuesday evening the
plans and specifications prepared by
architect Carl A. Hers, for the new
pump-house to be erected in North
German Park were presented and adopted
and the city clerk was authorized and
instructed to advertise for bids for the
erection of such pump-house. One of
the bids is to call for a brick building,
one to be constructed of cement blocks
and the third for a stucco building.
The pump house viii be 20 80 feet,
16 feet high and will be surmounted by
a cupola IS feet high.
It was mentioned at the meeting that
the pump which had been ordered from
a st. Paul firm had as yet not been
delivered and installed because the
jobbers were having a great deal Of
trouble to get the necessary appliances
from the manufacturers, due to the fact
that the many contracts for munitions
crowded out every other work.
It may become necessary for the city
to lay their water pipes on North State
Street, North Broadway, Front Street
and Center Street deeper than they are
laid at the present time because in some
places the water mains and in others
the service pipes have been frozen and
the abutting property owners could not
get any city water. Complaints have
been coming in quite frequently during
the past few months. The matter was
up for discussion at Tuesdays meeting
and the blame for existing conditions
was laid upon former city engineers
who drew the plans and specifications
under which these local improvements
were made
The matter of grading, crawling, and
boulevarding Front Street from Center
to Fifth North Street was discussed at
some length. This street improvement
was urged by some Of the abutting prop
erty owners last year but nothing came
of it and the matter was disposed Of at
this time by referring it to the street
committee for the purpose Of finding
out if a sufficient number of the prop
erty owners desired such Improvements
made. If enuf favor the proposition,
the matter will be referred to the Board
Of Public Works and if reported favor
ably may be completed some time

Each Gets Comfort Kit
Each man was given comfort kit
by the Red Cross and several boxes of
cookies and other home goodies were
packed for the men and sent along with
them. They were sent to the various
hotels in town for their midday meal.
Three Bands AS Escort
Three bands attended them; first
coming the Hofmeister band, next the
Union Concert Band and winding up
the procession came the Bauer Band
which had been in attendance on the
boys from their section of town all day,
and if reports are correct, all night as
well. At any rate, the last named
organization was on the job first thing
Saturday morning, bringing their men
up to the armory bright and early,
cheering their way with stirring strains
of martial music.
Tie three members of the Turn Verein
were also escorted to the hall by members
of the society in body about three o.
clock in the afternoon and these society
members also marched to the station
a number of the Red Cross workers
were in the procession and school children
with flags followed their elders. The
soldiers had supper at Mankato served
to them by various church organizations
and left Mankato on time in the evening.
They were scheduled to arrive at Camp
Dodge Sunday morning.
