SAND DIET WAS FATAL ID THESE
 NEBRASKA HOGS

It cost a Nebraska farmer s1,o00 to learn that hogs must be supplied with mineral matter.
 Hogs to this value were kept in feeding pens where they were neither supplied mineral foods nor given an opportunity to range for them. One day wagon load of sand was dump ed into the pans to be used in repair work Shortly after, the animals were discovered dead, and on post mortem examination the large intes- tines were found to be gorged with sand.
 Swine growers should see to it that their animals have access to mineral foods. Where a considerable range is provided the animals are often able to lind such foods for themselves but in any event it is a safe plan to give the hogs plenty of mineral matter in some form.
 The following mixture is recom- mended by 4. G. Skinner of the Fix tension Service of Connecticut Agri- cultural College at Storrs: Three bushels of charcoal, two quarts of air slaked lime, eight pounds of salt, one bushel of wood ashes.

CREPPLES WILL!
 BE EDUCATED BY !. 5. GOVERNMENT

It is estimated that fully soo,ooo persons in the United States are in- Jured in the pursuits of industry each year. More than 10 per cent. of that number require complete retraining because Of the nature of their d:sa- bility, which does not permit of their return to their old positions More than 20 per cent. of these unfortun- ates have dependents. In numerous cases these dependents have become a charge upon the community
 The new law provides that half Q million dollars will be available the first year. The second year S750,O00 will be available, and the third year the government will allow S1,0OO,oOO for the rehabilitation of the handi- capped men, women and children.
 Of the money so appropriated the government will give a dollar every time the State gives one to re-educate the disabled man. The State, how ever, must enact laws based upon the Federal Act, if they desire to receive the benefits of this money The States are to have their own examining boards, such boards to determine who. is eligible to re-education and train ing, the kind of training necessary, and the institution to which the handicapped person will he sent. Each will proceed independently un- der plan agreed upon by the State. and the Federal Government ti'1
 It has been the experience of the Federal Board for Vocation Educa- ton that the legislative bodies of the. various States have been quick to meet the government in all acts wtich have provided for the good of the people of their communities in the past. There is every reason to be- Eeve that every State will hasten to enact legislation which will permit if to secure benefits under the Federal bill. The desire to reclaim the dis abled man has always received atten- tion at the hands of legislative bodies A number of states have already enacted laws modelled on that of the of the Federal Act, some giving three or four dollars for every dollar offer ed by the government to carry on this great work.

Now is a good time to prepare the cellar for the storage of winter veg etables. Where there are proper sto- rage facilities it is usually much cheaper to buy winter vegetables in quantity in the fall and place them in the cellar than it is to buy them as needed during the winter
 In house heated by a cellar fur mace vegetables may be stored to good advantage in the cellar.

The shelves should be pro- tected from the light to prevent of bleaching of the canned products in glass jars. Avoid wide fluctuations in temperature. The root cellar should be kept at not less than 32 degrees and not over 50 degrees.
 Vegetables should be sorted before storing and only sound ones should be used for storing

AMERICAN NURSE ACTED AS GUARD
 FOR MONEY BAG

AlexandropoI, Armenia, Sept. 22, via Paris, Oct. 29.-Miss Ruth Stuart, formerly of the Children's Hospital, Boston, and the Sloane Hospital, New York, but now a member of the American Red Cross, has arrived here from Tifis, after travelling three days and nights in box car, with a bag containing 100000 rubIes for the use of the Ameican Hospital and Orphanage in this city.
 In the Trans-Caucasus which is without police, money is usually brought from TifIis by a corporaTs guard, but as funds were urgently required and no guards were avail able, the bank decided to entrust the money to the good sense of the American nurse. She left without a soldier convoy and unarmed.
 As the train left Tiflis the nurse was handed a sack containing a bushel of the tri-republic notes (of Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan). |. As soon as the train was en route Miss Stuart emptied her personal eff fects from her suitcase and repacked it with the money. She placed the suitcase under the blanket on her bed, and sat upon it, beginning her watch of seventy-two hours.
 At Meganlo, three men entered her car They made signs that they were customs inspectors and must search for contraband. Miss Stuart knew that the cars of foreign missions are not subject Co search by the Georgian Government, but she said nothing and did not leave her seat. The all leged inspectors searched thoroughly, seemed puzzled, and left.
 Outside Karakilis, three horsemen, in the uniforms of Cossacks, gal loped out of wood. firing at the train. Forty shots were exchanged between riders and passengers, none taking effect. The riders attempted to overtake the locomotive, which was slowly making a grade, but were stopped by deep gully. During the encounter Miss Stuart did not look out of the car. She sat cn the mil lion rubles.
