FARMERS TO
FIGHT 7. /"
Meeting at Ellsworth Town
ship Saturday Discuss
es Prevention of
Hog Disease.
FEDERAL INSPECTION
Each Farmer Present Sign
ed in Favor of Federal
Inspection.

The department of agriculture i
urging farmers all over the country +
keep costly II. B. out of your hol
lot and ut meeting of the Ellsworth
township Farm Bureau Saturday thi!
important question Of tuberculosis wa!
discussed by the farmers present.
Every farmer at the meeting signed
resolution favoring federal inspec
ton and recent instructions and stats
tics sent out of the agriculture depart
mcnt were studied
Hogs contract tuberculosis chiefly
from dairy COWS, which are also very
subject to tuberculosis. The disease in
Il COW infects her milk system, her
lungs, and her throat with tubercle
bacilli--the germs which cause tuber-
culOsis in men and animals. Some OF
these germs escape from the COW in her
milk or in her droppings, or she may
cough them out on feed or bedding.
Hogs get the disease from the raw
milk or droppngs, or feed infected by
q tuberculous COW. Pasteurized or
cooked milk will not pass the disease
from infected cows to other animals.
Preyentives.
Therefore, says the pamphlet, to
protect hogs from tuberculosis and to
make sure the feed will be turned into
meat instead of fertilizer, the follow
ing instructions should be carried out
See that all milk, especially all skim
milk from the creamery, is pasteurized
or cooked before it is fed to the hogs.
Keep your hogs from following dairy
cattle, unless the cattle are tuberculin
tested. Keep them out OF cow lots and
barns, and keep dairy drainage out OF
hog lots. Hogs can follow steers with
ont much dansers
Give your healthy hogs chance toI
keep healthy. Give them clean, we'll
drained lots and plenty Of fresh air,
sunlight, and clean water. Shelter
them in well-lighted and ventilated,
sanitary hog houses. Keep the houses
clean and use plenty Of whitewash and
disinfectants.
If there was tuberculosis in your
swine last year. it is safest to get rid
of that herd, especially the breeding |
animals, and raise clean hogs from
fresh stock

THOUSAND farm
HANDS WANTED
Demands for Workers in
Iowa Greatly Exceed
the Present Sup
ply.
ASK MARRIED MEN
The County Agents Report
Needs to Federal En-
plOyment Service.

DeS MOines, Iowa, March Sin re
spouse to an inquiry sent out to countH
agents recently, George b. Albert, d.
rector of the state and federal EN-.
plOyment service, with offices in the
Polk county court house, has figures
showing that Iowa farmers now want
377 married farm hands and 43S single
men for farm work. About One-fOurth
of the counties of the state are yet u
he heard from.
The prompt responses and the LIBERAL
wages offered indicate that the demand
for farm help will be even greater this
year than last. During this past week,
the Polk county Office alone has sent
out sixty men to farm jobs.
Never before have the farmers been
ready so early in March to take OH farm
help nor has there been such II large
per cent asking for married workers.
A few years ago the big majority did
not want help before the first of April
and comparatively few wanted married
men.
Labor Generally Scarce.
State Commission A. J.. Urick, who
keeps in touch with demands for labor,
states that there has been u great
change in the attitude of the farmers
in the past years in the matter of en-
ploying help earlier in the year and
in the large per cent Of married farm
hands asked for.
Commissioner Urick also predicts
that labor in general will continue to
be scarce this season. In spite OF the
high cost of building. workers in the
trades have had work right
through the winter and now that spring
is on the way there is every indication
Of scarcity of workers in the build
ing trades. The paving program over
the state in general is also an extern
sive one SO that there will be a big
demand for paving workers.
The, county crop agents are alive to
the needs Of the farmers of their coun-
lies and are already acting as agents
TO supply the farmers OF their counties
with the needed help. Employment
IF help tine year round on the farm is
also more general than formerly. I

Quit Laxatives,
Purges; Try Mr.
mr. Tonight Tomorrow Feel Right

1t is a mistake to continually dose
yourself with so-called laxative pills,
calomel, oil, purges and cathartics
and force bowel action It weakens
the bowels and liver and makes con-
slant dosing necessary.
WHY don't you begin right today to
overcome your constipation and get
your system in such shape that daily
purglng will be unnecessary? You
can do so if you get q 25c box of
Natures Remedy (NR Tablets) and
take one each night fer z week or so.
Mr. Tablets do much more than
merely cause pleasant easy bowel &C.
ton. This medicine acts upon the
digestive as well as eliminative organs
promotes good digestion, causes the
body to get the nouriShment from all
the food you cat, gives you a good,
hearty appetite, strengthens the liver,
overcomes biHoUSness, regulates kidney
and bowel action and gives the whole
body a thorough cleaning out. This
accomplished you viii not have to take
medicine every day. An occasional Mr.
tablet will keep your body in condi-
ton and you can always feel your best.
Try Natures Remedy (NR Tablets)
and prove this. 1t is the best bowel
medicine that you can use and costs
only Csc per box, containing enough to
last twenty-five days. Nature's REM
edy (NR Tablets) is sold, guaranteed
and recommended by your druggist.
