been added oil Of American worm
seed as follows: Pigs weighing less
than so pounds, one-half teaspoonful;
pigs weighing 80 TO 100 pounds, one
teaspoonful; large hogs, two teaspoon
fuls. Each pig should be dosed sepa-s
rately if the best results are to be
obtained. Castor oil should always be
given with oil of American wormseed.
Other laxatives are not satisfactory.
Dangerous to Drench Hogs.
Drenching hogs is dangerous, as
they are liable TO get the remedy into
the lungs. With sufficient assistance
pigs may be held, the mouth kept
open by means of couple of loops of
wire or rope, or leather straps, and
the medicine given in tablespoon or
| large kitchen spoon. BY this method,
| though ii is troublesome, one may be
certain that each pig gets his proper
dose After dosing with the above
mixture the pigs may be fed and wa
/ tered. Repeat the treatment in ten
days.
Change Pastures Frequently.
Healthy hogs become infected with
intestinal worms from feed, water and
soil which have been infested by the
droppings from infected hogs. Ere
quent change of pasture is one of the
best means of reducing worm infes-
tation to a minimum. Hogs, however.
should not be allowed to run ar large
on open range, as this favors the
spread of hog cholera.
Swine can be raised when they are
confined in limited quarters if the
quarters are kept clean, but they will
do much better and stay i'm better
health if they have plenty OF pasture
!. Divide the pasture into convenient
areas, so that the hogs can be shifted
from one pasture to another. This not
only provides fresh pasture but af
fords an opportunity TO disinfect the
, pastures by blowing and reseeding OF
) by exposure to the sun and weather.

A despatch from Washington in The

r. L. ODonnell, general manager OF
the Pennsylvania railroad, as saying
that freight engineers made S392,3j a
month and compared this wage with
the salaries OF governors, some OF whom
are paid only 1888 a month. The ar
ticle attracted great deal OF attention
and evoked much discussion.
OF course, 10 was not meant that
S392.3J is the average wage Of freight
engineers. What was meant was that
under the present wage scale freight
engineers by overtime work have earn
as high as that
Scrutiny Of the records show that
one passenger conductor Of Whining

more than $500 each for the same per-
iod. Others figures for July were: Pas

Extended
IN EFFECT MONDAY;
MERCHANTS PLEASED

George W. Rush. division freight
agent Of the Pennsylvania railroad, has
just issued an announcement OF addi-
tional freight service down the penin-
sula which will be Of immense value
TO Wilmington merchants and business
men. Effective on next Monday. daily
freight service will be inaugurated on
the Centreville and Chesierlown
branches, thus extending the delivery
OF less-than-carl0ad-l0is Of freight to
the entire peninsula.
For weeks early in the year the traf-
nc committee OF the Chamber Of Com
merce' presented the claims Of this
city for this daily freight service at
conferences with railroad officials both
here and in Philadelphia, with the re-
suit that on May 10 a new schedule
was placed in effect, by which the
shippers Of Wilmington received the
concession OF daily shipments through
out the peninsula, excepting on the
two branches named. However, the
promise was made by the railroad au-
thorities that as soon as il could be
done daily shipments would replace
the thrice-a-week handling OF freight
on these branches. The fulnllment OF
this promise commences on Monday.
Merchants Of Wilmington who have
been greatly handicapped by the three
shipments, especially those
whose shipments comprise mainly gro
ceries and other food products, are
grateful for the energtic, courteous as
slstance they have received from Mr..
Rush in this matter. and appreciate his
assistance in the develop
ment Of Wilmington trade.
