HOG CHOLERA IS
PREVALENT OVER
ESCAMBIA COUNTY

Farm Demonstration Agent c. W.
Burnett says there is lots of hog chol-
era in the northern portion of the
county and that It will soon spread
over the entire section If the farmers
do not take some precaution in regard
to the matter.
There is no cure for hog cholera
and of course the only safe way is
prevention, and there is only one way
to prevent it and that is by the stimuli
taneous treatment with hog cholera
serum and virus, and this treatment
is an absolute prevention II admin
istered at the proper time, but the
mistake that most farmers make is
that they wait until their hogs are
infected before they have the work
done, the cost is very small compared
with the value OF a hog.
DR.. Baxter, of the State Live Stock
Sanitary Board, is in the city and will
be here just as long as the people will
take advantage of the opportunity to
use him and have their hogs treated.
His services, as we'll as those of
Agent Burnett, are absolutely free and
it is the wish of both these parties that
every hog owner will see or communi-
cate with one of them and have their
hogs inoculated before 1t is too late.
There is a great possibility ahead
of the farmer in the raising of hogs
if they will only take advantage of the
opportunity and keep their hogs free
from disease as there is more money
to be made in the raising of hogs than
any other branch of the farm work, so
please see these men and take advan-
tage of this opportunity.

PUBLIC DEBT OF
u. S. TREASURY
S24,8 34,3 5000

Washington May 3.-Public debt of
the United states government was re-
ported today by the treasury as $24,-
-S24345, 600. Most of this represents
Liberty bonds of the first, second
third and fourth issues but the victory
Liberty loan is not included to any
great extent. The addition of victory
loan bonds will be largely counter
balanced by redemption of outstand-
ing certificates of indebtedness. No
deduction is made for the $3.50. 100000
loaned to foreign governments. Con-
sequently the net debt will be approxi-
mately $4,000 100000.
The treasury plans to issue other
bonds later this year and next year
to meet the flag ends of war expenses,
but in the aggregate these are not ex-
pected to amount to more than S5,-
600 .O00, 600, so that the gross public
debt of the United States is expected
by treasury officials to be in the neigh
borhood of $4,000. 000, 900 when the Pc
riod of war financing ends.
The treasury now has a working
balance of s1.0520 900, 900 of which
$685., $40, 900 is on deposit with banks
throughout the country on account of
bills of certificates of indebtedness and
victory Liberty notes. The treasury
holds $2.568. 599, 900 in gold but little
more than half of this belongs to the
gold settlement fund of the federal re
serve board. Silver dollars in the
treasury, which a little more than a
year ago amounted to $3.50, 900, 900 had
been reduced to s22s,711, 900 by melting
down of approximately $3.50. 00o.0 900 of
silver dollars for export to India

Got Ready Three Times
But Never Even Started

Lloyd T. Rigdon, former city alder
man, now in the service, had his pack
rolled and ready to start for France
three different times, according to
letter received few days ago by sew
eral Of his Elk friends. But he didn It
even get started as about the last, time
the order came to pack up the armis-
tice was signed.
Mr.. Rigdon is now at Camp Lee, Vir-
ginia, and of course doesn t know
whether he will be kept in the service
six weeks or six months. In moving
from Camp Mills to Camp Lee, he
writes that he had a 30 hour ride on
the ocean in one of the big army trans
ports, then had a night ride of eight
hours on river boat up the james riv-
er and then a ten mile hike to Camp
Lee.
Virginia in that section is about SO

mitted to sell even a cigar On Sunday.

from the state house to the post ottlce
grounds The cows ran at large in those
days in Salem and fences were one OF
the household necessities
When the effort was made to secure
the ground for the post office, it was
necessary to buy off all the Wilson
heirs, as the land had originally been
given for public uses only After all
the Wilson heirs had signed quit
claim deed, the post office block was
sold to the government and the money
received partly given to the heirs.
In the original deal between the
Rev. Wilson and the Oregon Method
ist missionaries, it was agreed that Mr..
Wilson and wife should take up the
$40 acres on which Salem is mostly To-
Gated and that after his four years
occupation and patent issued it should
all be returned to the Methodists, al
lowing Mr.. Wilson and wife a certain
percentage for sale of lots.
AS was customary in those days, in
issuing patent for the $40 acres, Mrs.
Chloe Wilson was given title to the
north half, which happeAed to be north
of State street and Mr.. Wilson the
south half. There has been no contro-
versy as to title Of the land south Of
State street, but as Mrs. Wilson had
not signed the original agreement with
the Methodists, to return the land af-
ter patent had been issued, 1t seems

General Grote Hutchinson Puts ouietus
That Camp Will Be Closed.

Camp Custer, Battle Creek.-Major
General Grote Hutchinson officially put
a quietus on rumors that Camp Custer
is likely to be abandoned as demo-
bilization center. The report started
through an article published in a,Chi.
cago newspaper to the effect that
Camp Grant had been selected to dis
charge men from 13 states, "includ-
ing Michigan, statement which
civilians and soldiers alike construed
as Camp Clusters finish.
"This is not true" said General
Hutchinson, las not only will men from
Michigan be discharged from Camp
Custer, but also men from following
states: West Virginia, Ohio Indiana,
Kentucky, Wisconsin, Illinois and Mis-
souri,"
Asked If there would be any public
recognition of the return OF the Eigh-
ty-fifth and Thirty-second divisions by
units or in whatever form they come
back, General Hutchinson said
mo, the men are merely coming to
Camp Custer to be demobilized, and
they will be demobilized.

troit or Battle Creek or some other
city wants to have a parade of the re-
turning Michigan troops, it can prob
