PATENT REMEDIES WILL NOT
 PREVENT CHOLERA

Farmers and stockmen should not depend upon stock remedies, tonics and nostrums to prevent swine di- seases. especially hog cholera or worm infestations, is the warning of Dr. J. H. Bux in charge of hog chol- era in Arkansas for the United States Department of Agriculture.
 The official reports of the chemical analysis of a number of these prepa~ rations discloses that a number of them carry large percentage of com mon salt, charcoal or some worthless filler such as peanut hull and sand A number of them contained small percentage of Epsom or Glauber's salts, sulphur, pepper or ginger but the percentage of these was so low that 1t is questionable whether any beneficial results can be obtained from them
 The various state agricultural col leges in the United States during the past few years have tried out a num- Der of these preparations with the re- suit that there was very little mater ial improvement gained in their use and some of the colleges reported that they had no influence whatsoever on the inception, course or termination of hog cholera.
 It has been found that far bette. gains can be obtained by providing clean quarters, hog wallows, feeding floors and other means of keeping the s.-;.- e, fee from lice and treating all of them with serum and virus to guard against hog cholera than by at tempting to force gain and prevent disease by the use of stock feeds. Hogs handled in this way showed S2.50 per hundred more profit than those fed tonics and patent foods.

BASE BALL GAME HERE NEXT
 FRIDAY
Lonoke vs Carlisle
Carlisle [; Devalls Bluff ,

Just Tn time to save another disap- rointment, it was learned that the Bsinkley team did not intend to play nere as agreed Friday, and Manager ]. T. Patterson succeeded in getting DeValls Bluffs team here in double tire as he did not want. to disappoint our loyal Fans any more by furnish ing them plenty of baseball on Fri days which days the team intends to play at home if possible.
 Cur team lived up to it's winning streak by defeating the visitors to 5 which now makes seven won and only one defeat for the season. not so had and too, they are just getting started. The weather was not very favorable for baseball and so chilly our team never seem to get warm ed Up and the game was not as inter esting as we have seen. Biasingame, Captain of the team, started on the mound for Carlisle and had easy sail ing until the seventh inning when things got rather rough the visitors hammered him pretty severe and hits sandwiehed with several errors by his team mates netted four runs. In the eighth, Stauber went in the Box and as usual it was all off for the visitors. Neil caught his usual good game and used the stick to count, Berry and To- lar were there with their hits in the pinches too. Sims and Hare formed the Battery for the Bluff. Sims pitch ed pretty nice ball until Hare met with an accident by running into third baseman Fauike when chasing foul fly, Hare retiring from the game weak ened the catching end of which our boys seemed to take all the advantage.
 MT "Dink" Rarrentine of Cabot is now a member of the team and will fll up the infeld at Short. This has been the weakest place on the team and with sDink" who is a bear-cat, NOW at this station we have one of the best infelds in the country. The team is indeed glad to have Barrentine with them and it's rather piece of luck and the kindness of Messrs. Ellis ard Saunders of the Gay Oil Co.,, who notified Captain Blasingame there was vacancy with their firm and that they preferred securing the services of some good ball player. There was no time lost for Blasingame kept the wires hot until he located eDink' at Judsonia where he was playing ball with the local team, and soon the two reached an agreement and now Bar rentiae issa regular Carlisle boy The writer has in mind another good ball player who would like to come to Car lisle if he can secure a position or job with someone and play ball with the team.

BAERG ASKS FOR REPORTS ON
 PERIODICAL CICADAS

The periodical cicadas whose ap- pearance in Arkansas were predicted some time ago by w. J. Baerg, Ento- mologist of the University of Arkan- sas have made their appearance. The first report came from Antoine in the southeastern part of Pike county, where the correspondent says they are present in great numbers.
 These insects are sometimes known as 17-year locusts but this is a mis- leading term because in Arkansas and many other localities of the south the insects appear every 13 years. The insects are not locusts but have a long sucking beak by means of which they feed by sucking the sap from various shrubs and trees. As rule they cause no particular damage by their feeding; but when the females begin to deposit the eggs, perhaps in a month, they cause some damage to young orchards or trees in the nurs- cry row. The eggs are deposited in slits that the female makes in the bark of the trees.
 The Entomologist will appreciate it very much if persons from all over the state will send him reports in re- gard to the time when the cicadas ap- pear, the number in which they occur and the extent of the damage they cause. The body including the head of the insect is black. It is nearly an inch long. The wings are glossy and transparent with dull red veins on them. A striking feature of the cica- das is their shrill song which they maintain all through the day from dawn till dusk. Address reports to W. J. Baerg, Entomologist, Fayette- vile.
