lasting peace assured, the natural

Dear Father:-I will endeavor to

day, and we have not been out to
the drill field this morning. We are
expected to keep busy just the
same, so we have been cleaning up
guns, shoes, etc, during drill hours.
We are never without mud here,
and it is very disasreeable, it being
the black kind of mud that hangs
on.
We will have been at this place a
month Saturday night, and | judge
we have about as desirable a place
to stay as there is, for there is no
desirable place here at the rainy
season. All the men are wild to
get home, for they are well fed up
On this country. Some have been
here a year, and most of them from
six to eight months. | will have
been here four months the first Of
January. | hope to get back some
time in January, but we can only
wait for orders, | think we are
only waiting for transportation, and
maybe on the peace conference. II

not get. home until spring, but

VAccINATE YOUR HOGS
County Agent Mcwilliams Offers His
Services To The Farmers.

There seems to be serious epi-
demic of hog cholera in this coun-
try at present. All hogs should be
vaccinated as soon as possible to
save the hog crop for this year.
Vaccination is only a preventative,
and not recommended as a cure.
1t is not recommended for hogs
with cholera. Therefore, vaccinate
your hogs before they get sick.
There are other things. that kill
hogs besides cholera. Keep your
hogs free from lice and worms.
Young cattle up to three years
old are affected with blackleg and
white scours. There is now on the
market a serum, which when used
will immune the young cattle from
these diseases.
| will be glad to 60 into any COM
munity in Sharp county and help
the farmers with these problems.
Yours for service,

Road Bill For Sharp County By
Representative Yates In Prospect

Representative Ben N. Yates
writes the Record that he is think
ine Of introducing a bill in the gen.
eral assembly to abolish the office
Of road overseer and free labor in
Sharp county His bill would then
divide the county into four separate
districts, providing for the election
Of d supervisor in each district,
who, together with the county
Judge, would lay out plans for the
repair and building of roads, and
let contracts for the work. The
Supervisors would be paid a salary
per day and necessary expenses
while discharging their duties. A
per capita road tax of SIS would be
required of all male persons be-
tween the ages of q and 60 who
are worth $1,000 or more. Under
the bill Mr. Yates has in contem-
plation all road work would be
done under contract, let on COM
petitive bids.
We are giving publicity to this
as a matter of news of course, and
at the request of Mr.. Yates, who
desires to hear from as many of his
constituents as will write him their
views of the merits of the proposed
measure.
Such a law, it strikes US, should
prove a vast Improvement over the
system of road working now in
vogue, and the Record is willing to
take it on trial at least.
