FERTILE VALLEYS ONCE SEAS
NaturaIlsts of Opinion They Were
Laid Bare by Great Con-
vulsions of Nature.

Many of the most fertile valleys
and plains in the world appear to be
the bottoms of ancient lakes laid dry
an exit having been opened by some
CONFUSION of nature, in some In
stances by mere gradual operations
for the waters that were previously
enclosed by impenetrable barriers.
Most of the great rivers were
formerly SUGGESTIONS of lakes, like
the st. Lawrence river in North
America. The level spaces between
the Allegheny mountains and other
parallel chains appear to have beer
inland lakes, until the rivers which
descend from these heights formed
for themselves exists.
The Euxine and Caspian seas, as
well as Lake Aral and several 9th
ers, are the remains of an extensive
sea, which covered the great par
of the north of Asia, according tt
the belief of Peter Simon Pallas. Il
has been conjectured that the open
ing Of the Bosporous was the occasion
of the draining of this ocean in the
midst OF Europe and Asia, the memory
of this disruption of the two CONT
ents being preserved in the tradi-
lions Of Greece.

BRONCHITIS IN LITTLE PIGS
Not Much Can Be Done in Way Of
fredericksburg, Cold Pens Are
Cause Of Trouble.


Bronchitis most commonly occurs in
young pigs. Matured hogs are seldom
troubled with it. IF it attacks very
young pigs it often proves fatal, but
pigs two or three months old will gen.
era,ly survive, though their growth
may be seriously interfered with. The
disease is accompanied by distress
Ing cough, which usually disappears
with the. advent of warm weather and
outdoor exercise. Little can be done
in the way of treatment. Dry pens
free from drafts, nourishing feed and
as much exercise as possible are the
principal points to be observed. Damp,
cold pens are the most common cause
of this trouble.

| GIVING NATURE FAIR CHANCE
Sluggard Quite Willing to Lie Abed
While She Did Good Job
of Repair Work.

"Arisev We said IN a tone admir-
ably adapted for declamatory pur-
poses, addressing the sluggard, who
was still smuggling at an unconscion-
ably late hour. 'The lark is up to
meet, the sun. The bee is on the wing.
Remember the manner in which the
inexperienced schoolboy read aloud
the admonition to Lucy: He had
been taught that when he encountered
two letters Of the same kind he should
pronounce them 'double-o, or what
ever they might be, instead of "a o.
So he sternly recited, not Up, up,
up, Lucy! The sun is in The sky and
so forth. Why do you not double up,
and to your tasks away?"
"That is a very good story" replied
the sluggard, ''but it does not move
me. We are told that nature does
most of her repair work on US while
we are in bed. 1t is my intention to
lie here until she fixes me up so that

BIG REDUCTION IN CHOLERA
Decrease in Swine Loss of II Per

North Carolina.

prepared by the United States Depart
mert of Agriculture.)
An example of the benefit which
may come to a community from the
well-directed efforts of state and fed
eral agencies, coupled with the COOP
Grafton of farmers, for the control Of
hog cholera is shown in recent re-
port of veterinary inspector of the
bureau of animal industry.
Hog cholera control work was In
augurated in six counties in the north
eastern section of North Carolina Au-
gust 1, 1916. An intensive campaign
was carried on for period of IA
months. 1t included investigation Of
reported outbreaks, demonstrations in
the use of serum and virus, and the
disinfection of premises. AS the
services of practicing veterinarians
were not available, a number of lay
men were trained in the administra-
ton Of the serum treatment for onol-
era. After that period Of intensive
activities the work was withdrawn to
another section of the state, only gen.
eral supervision being given to the
original area.
During October survey was made
Of the counties comprising the district
in question, and a QUESTIONABLE was
submitted to as many of the farmers
as could be reached. Answers re-
ceived and tabulated indicate that
there has been a reduction in losses
from cholera Of over, ~ per cent, and
an increase of over 160 per cent in
swine production, due to the protec-
ton offered by the immunization Of
the animals. There has also been u

MORE HOGS ARE NEEDED NOW
Every Farmer Must Put Forth Best
Endeavors to Produce More
Pork This Season.

If we expect to continue to provide
meat to foreign peoples as well as our
own people, every farmer must put
forth his best effort to produce more
hogs. Hogs can be kept proftably
upon many farms where they are not
found today. Farmers who already
produce hogs can produce more, for
there is not much chance of producing
meat this year in excess of the re-
quirements.

FEED LIVE STOCK LITERALLY
Farmer Should Make 1t a Rule 20
Keep No More Animals Thap

Make it golden rule to keep no
more stock on the farm than you have
enough feed to supply literally. Sell

sacrifice. For there is no sacrifice
equal to that which comes from
stunted live stock.
