to read the stun published about the
1915 corn crop. The sharks and spec

Queer, have advanced the usual amount

crop. II the producer will just stop 10
think. this ID tile same old stun that 10
handed out zach year, with perhaps
the form varied q little. They have
tried everything this ycar that . dis
eased Imagination could produce, ana
with more or .cas success. When one
thing failed they tried Aomething else,
and among hem they had published
In glazing headlines that great maiy
people were taking out licenses to I'M
Fort corn from Argentine. Now Will
some Of these wise boys kindly step
forward and tell US how much corn
Argentina produces for export? No,
they will not tell you the truth, which
Is that Argentina produces about the
same amount OF corn that the state "
Minnesota produces, and Argentina
corn 10 of an inferior quality. Last
week they came out with the report
that there were heavy runs OF corn
from northern Iowa predicted. Now
the fact Of the matter In regard 10
northern Iowa corn Is that not over
rs per cent Of II matured. On account
OF seed conditions last spring many
were compelled to ship In seed from
the south, which did not mature. Full
~ one-h half OF the corn grown In NOR
thern Iowa has already been fed, ana
the biggest part OF the other half also
will be fed, as there are lot q OF Tar

ed Il below an average crop fhere

on account OF the dry weather. now
after the spectators and dealers gets

their propaganda
The producers Of this corn shooid
have at least $3.50 per bushei for IL

has a spark OF manhood sore to see

Dor nor expense to do IT. and oeneve
that the government should see tna'
they receive just price for their LABOR.
ANY man who has the corn can go 10

advice would be to do this and hoia
your corn until such time a. you can
get a fair price for II. They have sot

Hog Cholera Losses
Steadily Falling

Losses from hog cholera declined
greatly In the four years 1914 to 1917
and further reduction is expected for
1918. says a letter from the secretary
Of agriculture to Addison T. Smith, "A
member Of the house OF representa-
tives. t@
The secretary calls attention to tho
necessity for state CO. operation In the

over that Of previous years.
Cooperation Furthsrs Work.
"a recent article, in which conditions
in Iowa are discussed, indicates that
the number OF hogs lost in that state
from cholera in 1914 was approximately
5000, 900. while the losses for 1917
amounted to less than 100000. Condi-
tons In Iowa, however. have been more
favorable to the efforts Of the cooper
alive forces engaged in hog cholera
control work in that state during the
last two years than previously.
The reduction OF losses has been less
in certain other states due largely 70
circumstances which have handicap

ease. We can not hope TO be so sue
cessful in the states where hogs have
open ranges as in localities where herds
are restricted to the premises Of thu

contamination"

Recent federal investigations OF
tuberculosis under normal farm condi-
lions continue to incriminate rodents,
especially mice. as possible spreaders
Of the disease. Following are briehy
the results of last years studies on
tuberculosis by experts Of the bureau
OF animal industry. Thorough clean
ing Of stables from which tuberculosis
animals have been removed has been
shown to be Of greater Importance In
making buildings safe for healthy AMI
mails than the use OF chemical germi-
cides. When the cleaning Is properly
done the quantity OF disinfectant
needed 10 relatively small. Mice which
have ingested tuberculous material are
especially to be suspected as possible
spreaders of the disease, as tubercle
bacilli multiply enormously in their
bodies and are scattered freely with
thir fecee. Results obtained again en-
phasize that this destructive disease
would decline materially Is relatively
simple precautions against its spread
were more commonly understood and
practiced by owners Of live stock.
Among the principal measures urged
by the bureau are sunny, well-ventil-
ated barns sanitary surroundings. ap-
plication Of the tuberculin test to all
cattle when the health Of the herd Is
doubtful, prompt removal of any ami
mails which are affected, and the in
