ture. The department also outlined
in bulletin the campaign it is
launching to save the big corn crop
expected next year from the corn
borer. 1t is believed at the Capitol
that the feeding of hogs next year
will be on an even more extensive
scale than in the year just closed
and that much of the corn will be
used for pork.
The figures issued by the depart
ment show that at the end of 1918
there were in the state 100000 hogs
compared with 1.06S,000 the year be-
fore. The hogs in the state were
worth S14,S40.000 at the close of
1917. and a mid4year estimate for
1918 made them worth $19,T66, 1000.
The increases during the past year
were from one to fifteen per cent,
with the following counties showing
additions of five per cent. or better:
Adams. Allegheny, Armstrong. Blair,
Bradford, Bucks, Butler, Cambria,

Washington, Feb. 1s.-Eight thou
sand Costa Rican troops have been
mobilized on the border between
Costa Rica and Nicaragua and
threaten the invasion of the latter
country. Dispatches to the Mica

threat to the peace OF Central Amer

Julian Irias. Premier of Nicaragua
under the Zelaya government, which
was overthrown by revolution ten
years ago.
With the exception of police and

DON'T EXPERIMENT
WITH CATARRH

breath you take is difficult,
when the throat and nose are so
clogged up with offensive mu-
Gus that you are constantly
hawking and splitting in an eff
fort to clear your nostrils, every
effort you make to get relief by
the use of sprays and douches
is promptly followed by new
accumulations, so that no head
way whatever is made toward
getting rid of the disease.
Realize that the Catarrh
comes from a germ which in
tests the blood, and that the
disease cannot exist when these
germs are routed from the
blood. The rational and sue
cessful treatment, therefore, is
one that reaches the blood, and
cleanses it of every trace of inn
purity and rids it of these tiny
Catarrh germs. OF course, no
local remedies can reach the
blood supply, and that is why
Catarrh is not cured by sprays
and lotions.
The one great blood remedy
that has made wonderful rec
ord is S. S. S., which has been
on sale by drug stores every
where for over half a century.
If you would be rid of your
Catarrh, get a bottle of this
great old remedy to-day, which
will give you satisfactory re-
suits, as it has in so many cases.
You will find that you are on
the right treatment at last, as
s. S. S. will do for you what it
has for thousands of others.
Start taking S. S. S, to-day, and
write a complete description of
your case to our head physi-
clan, who will give you all
necessary instructions by re-
turn mail, without charge. Ad-
