NOT THEIRS TO ABANDON

In commenting upon the recent Alneri-
can election. as 1t may affect the league
OF nations, an Argentine paper says that
If the Latin American countries should
be forced to choose between abandoning
the league or the Monroe Doctrine. they
would probably choose to abandon the
latter.
This newspaper seems 10 have the
wrong conception Of what the Monroe
Doctrine is. 1t could not be successfully
abandoned by any or all South Amrrt-
can countries for the reason that IT Is
purely policy OF the United States. 1t
is gratifying that South American ma
tons approve of the Monroe Doctrine.
but it would still exist regardless Of
such approval.
The United States has declared against
tho introduction OF European Intrigue
on this continent. and even direct In
yitation BY 4 South American country TO
n European country To violate the Mon
roe Doctrine would not alter this ati!-
,uLe. II was not for the sake of South
America. but Cor our own sake. that We
established this wall. The fact that II
does protect South America is tnCtden-
tai, Ike the fact that an electric ljghc

BALTIMORE RUM GUARDS
TO Be TREBLED AT ONCE
Dry Agents Pass Buck and Leave the
Capture of Whiskey Thieves
70 the Police.

BALTIMORE. March 12.-On su-
thority OF the United states Bureau
OF Internal Revenue it can be said
that tho Mt. Vernon Distillery rob
berry probably will be the last of its
kind.
The rcson is that on the day OF the
haul in Baltimore 81 100000 became
available to the Revenue Bureau for
additional guards at whiskey ware
houses
The bureaus original request was
for $1,000. 900. but the single million
will be sufficient, revenue officials
said. to provide ample protection for
warehouses.
BY the first OF next week the
guard will be doubled or even trebled
at many warehouses.
Chase for the whiskey thieves who
raided the distillery in HiGhlandtown
early Wednesday apparently has re-
solved into question Of who Is the
hunter?" Officials in the prohibition
enforcement department here declare
that they are "restinE on their oars,
leaving the problem of catching the
twelve men who drove away with
sixty barrels OF whisky up to the
police.
The police. on tho other hand. arc
saying nothing and their part of the
hunt is probe natical
officials in District Prohibition Di
rector stones office yesterday criti-
rizcd tho police for their failure to
catch tho thieves. Ono said IL his de-
partment had many policemen
and detectives as Marshal Carter"
the burglars soon would be captured.
Eve have made a report of the rob
berry and, of course, our mon will be
on the trail OF the Whiskey. but tho
case is in tho hands of Marshal Car
ter" said this officer. "Wc probably
will take up an investigation of il
later"
Tho enforcement officers take tho
view that they ar" called upon to en-
force the law and that, while il is
violation of tho law to have in ono,
possession whiskcy upon which tax
is unpaid or to move il, it il the duty
OF the state officers to investigate
burclarics and robberics such as oc

BRAND TUBERcULoUS CATTLE
New York Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Orders Letter at" Put on
Affected Animals.

BY a recent order of the New York
commissioner of agriculture, al prac-
ticing veterinarians in that state are
required to brand cattle found by
them to be affected with tuberculosis.
The order specifies that the brand
shall be the letter "T" not less than
2 or more than 8 inches high and on
the left jaw.
The new regulation, which became
effective in March, was issued by Com
missioner Charles S. Wilson under au-
thority of the agricultural law. The
order applies to all bovine animals
within the limits of the state. Vet
erinary experts of the United States
department of agriculture consider it
will be of great value to livestock
breeders of New York and also an I'M
portant step for any state to take in
the progress of tuberculosis eradica-
ton. Reactors are permanently mark
ed by the branding process and in
cases where they are not slaughtered
the possibility of their being disposed
of or losing their identity is greatly
lessened, if not entirely eliminated.

RAISING SHEEP FOR MUTTON
There Are Many Areas, Especially in

Sheep are not very generally kept
on farms for supplying the home fam

especially in ihilly or mountainous re-
gions. where nearly every farm could
keep a few mutton sheep to advan-

clubs in some parts Of the country
have done much to foster home pro-
duction of mutton.
"Sheep naturally Craze over rather
wide areas and seek variety Of

HOW HOG NANCE IS SPREAD
Disease Is Contracted More Rapidly
Among Animals of Low Vital
ity-cure by Dipping.

Hog mango is spread mainly by d.
rect bodily contact, according to in
vestigations recently conducted by the
United States department of agricul-
ture. The disease is contracted most
rapidly among hogs Of low vitality,
especially those kept in small lnclos-
ures. 1t spreads more slowly among
vigorous animals kept in pastures or
in clean, well-lighted roomy pens or
buildings. Failure by swine owners
to control hog mango results in heavy
losses from shrinkage as well as from
a high death rate. The department
states that the disease can be eradi-
Gated by four dippings in lime-sul-
phur or arsenical solution with in
tervals of 6 to Z days between dip
pings.
