GREAT SHORTAGE OF
COAL IN ENGLAND
Industrial Unrest Results in De.
creased Production
sBy Associated Fress

49, assecia.'d fress
London, July 1S.--A shortage of
more than 100000 tons of coal, as
compared with the 1913 output is
faced by Great Britain in the coming
year, according to Sir Auckland Ged-
des, president of the Board of Trade.
He announced in the House of Com
mons that for the twelve months from
July 16 next, when the miners seven
hour day comes into effect, the pro-
duction of British coal is estimated al
between 214,OOOOOO and 217.0O0,OOO
tons. In 1913 the output was 2S7,-
100000 tons.
Those newspapers which cham.
pioned the miners in their successful
fight for shorter working day re-
fuse to concede the claim made by
pessimistic prophets that reduction
in hours means a corresponding re-
ductin in utput, but there is general
agreement that war strain and in
dustrial unrest have caused decline
for the moment in production per
man, and a serious view is taken Of
the sitcation.
Even II the amount of coal kept for
home consumption is held down to
the amount used last year on strict
rationing basis, 196,0O0OOO tons, the
export surplus available will amount
to about 20,00O0OO tons.
This, it is said, will have highly Sc
rious results, for not only must Eng
lands continental allies go without
the coal for which they are almost
entirely dependent on Great Britain,
but this country itself will be ire
mendously handicapped by the fact
that it no longer will be able to rely
upon coal as substitute in foreign
trade for currency. England, accord
ing to analysts of the situation, will
how have to pay for her imports in
other goods or in money.
The increase in the price Of coal
for domestic consumption is varlously
estimated at from $1,0S a ton by Sir
Auckland Geddes to about So by the
manager of a Welsh iron and coal
company. This is expected to in
crease prices in practically all
branches Of industry.
Newspapers say the coal problem
affects the entire national life of this
country and it's world position as
trader as well.

VETERINARY QUESTION
ANSWERED BY DR.. SPENCER
Member OF the Staff at the State Col
lege of Agriculture

A number Of inquiries have been
made recently asking for a remedy
ior mango on pigs. Mango and So
called mango in pigs is due to so
many causes that it is hard to outline
a course of treatment that will COM
Dat them all. So-called mango, or
more properly speaking, eczema, Is
due to improper feeding, which
brings about Indigestion; to hog lice;
and to irritation from sand. The
removal of any of these causes IL
generally all that is necessary. Where
true or parasitic mango exists. the
pigs should be thoroughly disinfect-
60 In per cent coaltar dip, such
as kreso, at least once a week, un-
I'll the parasites have become de-
stroyed. After the first dip they
should be given new quarters where
tire parasites do not exist. In addi-,
ton to dipping, it is good to smear
the pigs over freely with a mixture of
sulphur and lard in the proportion
or one to four, and then keeping the
pigs in clean quarters.
Flies are great annoyance to
horses, especially during the summer
months. Where they are extremely
troublesome, it is advisable to spray
with small sprayer, any Of the fly
repellants commonly used on cattle.
In case one is unable to get these, a
very good one consists of one part
carbolic acid, rs parts crude oil, and
20 parts OF fish oil. This may 10
either sprayed or sponged on, but
should be done daily. This same
remedy is good for lice on hogs. If a
large sprayer is used, and the hogs
sprayed about once a week, the lice
Will soon be destroyed.
Pigs should not have access to
stagnant water, which is a breeding
place for all such parasites.
A letter received recently from one
farmer says his calves have a dis
ease something like wart in ap-
pearance, spreading on their head
and neck. 1t kills the hair, and It
seems to itch somewhat. This disease
is robably ringworm, and is contag-
cus. Treatment: Scrub briskly with
a stiff brush, all infected places about
the head and neck, using warm
solution of creolin. After removing
the scales by this treatment, paint the
places freely with tincture of iodine
and repeat the operation in about four
or five days.

THEY ALL WANT IT-FREE

Every mail that comes in brings
with it a request for free advertis-
ing space from some one or other
of a dozen or so alleged Govern
mental or charitable schemes. We
have not the space and do not
think we are called upon to furnish
it free if we did have it. No one is
furnishing us free paper, ink, house
rent, labor and the hundreds Of
things which go to make up the ex-
pense account of a newspaper Of

waste-basket with their numerous
and insistent requests for space.

JACK wINN AGAIN HoNoRED

The following article appeared in
recent issue of the Louisville Post
relatives to John j. (Jack) Vim,
son of Hon. and Mrs. John G.. VIM,
of this city. This is only one of
the many compliments that has been
bestowed upon this young man dur
ing his stay at Princeton. The ar
ticle follows:
"That Jack VIM, of Mt. Sterling,
was voted the best athlete by the
Senior class at Princeton College at
the same time they designated the
son of Grover Cleveland the most
popular member of the class, was
no surprise to his home city.
"John j. VIM has always been a
fine athlete. He got his athletic
start at Culver, where he played on
the football and baseball teams and
was a member of the famous Culver
Black Horse Troop of Cavalry. In
September, 1915, he started at
Princeton and Immediately landed on
the Freshman team. He later made
the varsity and was elected captain
for the season of 1917-18. That
year, however, their was no inter-
collegiate football for the Tigers be-
cause of the war. Vim is now presi-
dent of the Senior Glass, president
of Tiger Inn, one of the social clubs,
and member of the undergraduate
council. He was among the quota
of Princeton boys sent to training
camp and picked the artillery school
at Camp Meade. When all of the
artillery schools were CONSOLIDATED
he attended Camp Zachary Taylor,
receiving his commission August
31st, 1918. He was one of the five
honor men in the battery and re-
ported for duty at Camp jackson.
In October, 1918, he was promoted
to a first Ieutenancy. In December
he was discharged and returned to
Princeton where he will graduate in
June.

splendid physique and in every way

hood"

A produce company at Harrods-
burg, KY, put in a mammoth incu-
bator this season to test the demand
for baby chicks in that territory.
Although the first hatch is just now
off, the demand for day odd chicks
has been greater than the supply.
The manager of the company writes
at looks as if next year we viii
either have to give up this work or
put in a larger machine"
1t would appear from the above
that the baby chick business had
great possibilities in Kentucky.
