She was told that the war tax was
counted in the purchase price. Then She
explained that another store had added
the tax to the $50 she had just paid for

DIFFERENT SHOPPERS
FROM OLD TINES.
The people who are buying diamonds
are not those who usually buy them,
according to Mr.. Sipe. He explained
that persons who previously have bought
diamonds are not buying them now be-
cause they know the price has gone up
tremendously, While persons who have
never bought diamonds do not know
anything about prices and do not care
particularly.
Many persons are converting their war
savings into luxuries, Mr.. Sipe explained.
He said that thousands of dollars worth
of Liberty bonds had been brought to
his store and exchanged at their market
values for jewelry.
Mr.. Sipe's experience Is similar to that
reported by numerous other merchants

"The other day." Mr. sipe said, "a
man from a small Indiann city came
to me to buy a diamond. showed him
a perfect blue stone and quoted him a
price which I thought would knock him
off his chair. Instead OF objecting 70
the price he asked if I couldn't give him
something better l told him that |
could give him a bigger stone. He re-
piled that he did not desire a bigger
stone but more expensive one. Then
| almost fell from my chair"
PEOPLE HAVE QUIT
ASKING CHEAP GOODS.
Mr. Sipe said this is merely an example
of the way sales are being made without
any regard to price, although diamonds
are higher than ever before. He said
he did twice as much business during
December as he had ever done before.
"Ssles of single diamods for 5000 ana
3d. 600 are not at all uncommon" he said.
During the Christmas season we had a
line of women's watches at $675 apiece.

The rush for luxuries is explained by
some as an attempt to satisfy a craving

METHODS OF TREATMENT

The treatment of the affected ami
mails with medicinal agents is of little
or no value and is usually not attempt
ed. When the disease appears the SICK
cattle should be isolated and il an ami
NAL dies the carcass should be de-
stroyed by burning. The building or
parts of them which were occupied by
the infected animals should be cleaned
and disinfected. All the animals should
be vaccinated as soon as possible with
Hemorrhaglc Septicemia vaccine. This
should also be given to the sick cattle
but repeated In them two or three
times at intervals Of four or five days.
In extremely vlrulent outbreaks it is
sometimes necessary to reyaccinate
the entire herd in two or three weeks.
1t should be remembered that vaccina-
ton is primarily preventative instead
of a curative and results may be ex-
pected accordingly Experience In
vaceinating sheep has been satisfac-
tory.
Hemorrhagic Septicemia as an indie
pendent disease, is not difficult TO con.
troll, but ii will require vigilance on
the part of the owner or attendant so
that proper methods for protection
may be applied as early as possible.

Msmorrhagic Sspticemia .,
! Known Also as Swine Plague
and "Hog Fiu'Threatens
the Industry

Among the various infectious dis
eases to which animals are susceptible,
.Hemorrhagic Septlcemia, Is more or
less frequent in its occurrence, and Its
control offers an exceedingly important
problem at the present time. Every
state and every country has its losses
from this disease and experience in the
past has impressed the importance Of
bringing II forcibly to the attention Of
our livestock people, says DR.. N. ia
cob, state Veterinarian. An enormous
amount of lnvestigational work during
the past few years has given a clearer
conception Of this condition and the
ability to recognize 1t has been simpli-
fied very materially. 1t is not new
disease, but simply matter Of new
being able to diagnose conditions which
were formerly not understood. 1t oc-
ours most frequently in cattle, sheep
and hogs. In Tennessee, at this time,
its occurrence In cattle is most imp0r-
stant according to DIR. Jacob.
II seems that the germ is prevalent
in the soil Of many localities which
under certain conditions becomes dan.
gerous and will readily produce the
disease. Furthermore when once the
animal develops the disease the vari-
Gus body tissues and excretions may
carry the germ, consequently, the dis
tribution of the carcass, blood, bowel
excretions, etc, may be the means of
spreading IT, This should be kept in
mind when measures for its control
are undertaken. While the various
species of animals are susceptible, 1t
does not appear to spread directly
from one species to another. Conse-
Quently, If the disease were to appear
on the farm only among cattle, ii would
not be essential to administer pr0tec-
tive treatment to the sheep or hogs.
Altho the disease is contagious, II
varies considerably in its vlrulence aud
affects most readily those animals of
the herd or flock which are in the most
thrifty condition, resembling in this
respect the frequent fatal examinations
of Influenza and its complications, In
strong, robust people during the rather
recent epidemlcs.

Harding and Wood Fight
In Ohio, Hottest Contest
For Years in Party Ranks

Senator Warren G. Harding advised
his audience at the Republican rally
Tuesday night that he did not know
why the other candidates for the Re-
publican presidential nomination could
not be present, although he knew that
one of them was ''in Ohio wasting his
time. He referred to General Wood.
Whether Ohio is to remain loyal to
the ''favorite son" tradition in the ex-
preston of choice for presidential
candidates will be decided at the
statewide primary. April 27.
So far as the Democratic party is
concerned, the "favorite son" tradi-
ton will be ma intained by sending a
solid delegation of As members to the
San Francisco convention, pledged to
Governor James NJ. Cox.
Candidates for delegates, pledged to
General Wood, have been entered in
all but three of the % districts and
two candidates for delegate-at-large
also are in the field. A complete list
of candidates for district delegates
and delegate-at,large, pledged to
Senator Harding, are in the race.
In general, the Wood organization
is headed by men who were prominent
in the Progressive party in 1912.
Senator Harding's campaign for the
most part, is in the hands of men af-
filiated with the local party organiza-
JiOnS.
