CHEATING CHEATERS.

In Philadelphia the position OF
traffic policeman is open only to men
who are six feet or more in height
Such positions are so much sought
after that many applicants who fall
short of the required height by only
a small fraction of an inch are tempt
ed to cheat a little by rising on theiT
heels.
An ingenious application OF cleo
tricity is now used to circumvent this
trick, and any attempt to register a
fraudulent measurement is disclosed
at once. The applicant, as he stands
upon the platform under the slide
rule, sets his feet upon two metal
plates that are normally a trifle above
the platform. They are just large
enough to be covered by a mans
heels, and when the candidate stands
with his heels on the floor the plates
are so depressed that they make a
contact and form a circuit that lights
lamp overhead. AS long as the
man stands with both heels on the
ground the lamp stays lighted but the
moment he raises either heel the
smallest part of an inch the contact
is broken and the lamp goes out.
So does ne.

Hogs and The Home Table.

Nearly two-thirds of the meat eaten
on the farm is pork, the average farm
consumption OF pork being over 500
pounds per family. The greater por-
ton of the pork products used by
Farmers are produced on the home
farm. Swine specialists of the U. s.
Department Of Agriculture call atten-
ton to the fact that small number
of pigs can be raised cheaply. Kitch-
en- and garden wastes, and sometimes
dairy by-products, are available for
feed. The farmer usually kills the
hogs and dresses them on his own
place. The hogs furnish good va
riety of meat and also lard. The
smoke-house, common improvement
on the farm, provides a convenient
way for curing pork

Immunity to Hog Cholera Lasting

Immunity to Hog Cholera Lasting
A series of recent experiments on
duration of immunity to hog cholera
following simultaneous incubation of
young pigs supports the conclusion
that the protection is lasting. The
Investigations were conducted at
Ames. Iowa, by specialists of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture.
Altogether III pigs, inoculated
when a week to six weeks old and ex-
posed to hog cholera, at times vary
ing from months to 9 months and
256 days later, were found without
exception to be immune to that
disease.
Three of the pigs, however, died
during the period of exposure from
causes other than hog cholera.
There was no apparent ill-effect
from the simultaneous incubation in
any of the pigs.
There was no difference in the i'm
munity of pigs from immune and nom
immune sows.
Pigs that were approximately one
week old received 10 cubic centime-
ters of anti-hog cholera serum and
one half C. c. of virus. Pigs that
were three weeks old or more re-
ceived from Is TO 20 c. C. of serum
and from one-half to three-fourths
C. C. Of virus.
Immunity was tested by injecting
5 C. C. of virus into the animals when
they had attained weights exceed
ing, in many cases, 200 pounds. None
of the hogs contracted cholera. The
experiments appear to disprove as
sertions by some observers that SIM
ultaneous incubation of young pigs
is not lasting and that immunity dis
appears at stages of growth variously
placed from weaving time up to 50
or 60 pounds in weight.

Contrasting records based on 49,
$50 dairy cows from 10 contrasting
associations are being annalyzed by
specialists of the Dairy Division, U.
S. Department of Agriculture. The
tabulations have brought out a num-
Der of interesting relations between
milk production, butterfat test, bu5-
ter fat production, and income over
cost of feed. The larger COWS ex-
celled the medium and small cows
in production of both milk and but
terfat.
The average annual milk produc-
tion of all the animals was 1896
pounds per COW, and the average but
terfat production 246 pounds. These
figures are considerably larger than
the average for the United States, in
dicating that dairymen who are mem
bers of cow-testing associations eth
er dispose of their poorest cows or
else make them more profitable by
better feeding and handling

Fowls and the Family.

A large proportion of the poultry
products Of this country are produced
on general farms. Nearly every farm
has its poultry flock. The average
American farmer reserves about 3
dozen eggs a week for family use and
about so fowls are consumed by the
family during the year. These food
products can be secured absolutely
fresh, which considerably enhances
the value of this contribution from
the farm. OF the meat furnished by
the farm to the operator and his fam
lily, poultry constitutes about 10 per
cent.
A small flock of poultry can be
kept on the farm at little cost, as is
pointed out by poultry experts Of
the United States Department Of Ag-
riculture. The fowls find scattered
grain about the farmstead and on the
adjoining grain fields after harvest.
Garden refuse and kitchen waste are
usually available for them. They al
so feed on insects and worms. In
many cases the farmers wife and
children find pleasure in caring for
the flock.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

You are often told to beware of {

Every cold weakens the lungs, low.
ers the vitality and paves the way
for the more serious diseases. Peo-
lie who contract pneumonia first take
cold. The longer cold hangs on
the greater the danger, especially
from the germ diseases, as cold pre-
pares the system for the reception
and development of the germs of
consumption, diphtheria, scarlet fever
and whooping cough. The quicker
you get rid of your cold, the less
the danger of contracting one of these
diseases. Chamberlain Cough Rene

for colds and can be depended upon.

FARM DEPARTMENT.

This is shown by a recent report by
the Bureau of Crop Estimates, Unit.
ed States Department of Agricul-
ture. The value of these animals now
exceeds that of horses and cattle 9th.
er than milk cows, the two classes
formerly standing higher on the list
On January 1 of this year there were
approximately 23,747,OOO milk cows
in this country, an increase of 272,-
600 head, or 1.2 per cent, as compar-
ed with year ago. Their aggregate
value is placed at $2,021,6S1,OOO.
Ten years ago the average milk
COW was worth $500, compared with
$3.50. 1t is generally recognized
that the quality of the milk cows of
this country is improving at the same
time that their number is increasing.
The class of cattle, consisting of
calves, steers, bulls, and cows, not
kept for milk production and desig-
mated as "other CATTLE" shows a de-
crease of 100000 head, or lie per
cent. Ten years ago the average
value per head of animals in this
class was $19.07, a year ago it was
S44.22 and $43.14 this year. The
of "other cattle" in the coun-
try at the present time is approx
mately 44,3S5, 900, and their value
200.

Produce Feeds at Home.

Is the farm producing the neces-
sary feeds for the proper feeding Of
the family, live stock, the farm work
stock, and the commercial live stock
of the farm as far as they can be pro-
duced economically under local con-
ditions?
Farm management studies conduct
ed by the United States Department
of Agriculture indicate that the most
profitable farms not only produce the
necessary farm feeds but have a sur
plus of them to sell, and that usually
on the farms producing a surplus the
like stock is of better quality and
is better cared for than on farms
where staple feeds are bought.

MANY LOSSES IN KENTUCKY
FROM Firing" TOBACCO

New York, March 2O.-Tobacco
firing" in Kentucky this season has
been attended by an unusual mum.
Der of destructive fires, owing large
ly to more general redrying. accord
ing to reports compiled by the Nation
al Board of Fire Underwriters Ac-
turarial Bureau. This additional
step in the process of curing tobacco
is undertaken because IL enhances
the value of the weed and is effected
often by the crude method Of digging
a trench in the center of a barn and
piling it with logs, which are then
fired. During the firing" the farm
er concerned keeps an eye upon the
process and usually manages to safe
guard his premises.
The figures gathered by the Actu-
arial Bureau show that during the
periood from September 10 to No
vember 16, 1919, there were ninety
two fires of this Nature in Kentucky
with aggregate losses of $101.4S9,
whereas in the entire 1918 year there
were only sixteen such blazes in the
state with property damage
amounting to S23,OS7.
There is no suggestion of fraud in
connection with these cases, since in
a majority the insurance carried was
appreciably less than the actual loss
incurred.
