importance concerned the substitution
of another agreement In which all Of
the Powers concerned would be parties

agreement was voiced by Prince Toku-

cause of the difficulties in communlca-

circles that the reply would be received

1t is a common practice for farmers

Farmers Bulletin 1874, Hog Cholera,
especially the discussion Of modes OF
infection with hog cholera.
''Threshing rings" are quite popular
and no doubt under present conditions
crops can be handled speedily and
economically in this way, but the dan
ger Of carrying hog cholera from in
fected hog lots should be kept IN mind
and precautions taken to avoid It. In
the instance cited the thresher was
set in the hog lot, although 1t was
known at the time that some of the
hogs were sick.
It is much safer to thresh grain in
the field and avoid driving into in
closures where hogs are kept. If drN-
ing through the hog lots is unavoid-
able, the members of the "threshing
ring are advised to rinse their shoes
In a disinfectant and remove their
overallS; also wash their horses feet
and legs and the wheels Of the wagon
with the disinfectant before returning
to their own premises, and especially
their hog lots. Hog cholera is high
~ contagious disease and often losses
can be avoided by using the simple
and easily applied precautions speci--
fed.

DIAMOND HAS MANY VIRTUES
But According to Superstition the
Gem Must Be a Gift to Person
Who Wears It.

According to superstition (and to

is lucky, indeed. The diamond should

Of greater virtue there, for the
strength of it's growing is toward the
North, that is the left side Of the
world, and the left part of a man
when he turneth his face toward the

have strength anG manhood; it will
keep him from harm, especially from
broken limbs. 1t will give him VIC
tory over all his enemies if his cause
Is righteous. It will keep him from
strife and riots, and is a talisman
against entertainments. In fact, if~an
enchanter tries to work a spell upon
the possessor Of a diamond he will
find it will work upon himself instead.
No wild beast will attack the diamond

troubles If poison be brought near

virtue. the diamond must be given

Farmers from far and near were ex-

One of the leading shopmen went to
the nearest city to buy supply Of stuff

all had many experiences where we'll

we'll with good plans to be able to
stretch them to meet any emergency.
It is important that the family be
fed on well-balanced meals; this may
not be-done at every meal but if the
days meals balance the results are
as good. The food should be so pro-
vided that there is never an over
abundance of any one food principle,
like starchy foods, meats or sweets.
Meals should be prepared in regard
to the people served. Children and
old people need easily digested food,
often served more frequently than to
those in the prime of life. An Office
worker cannot digest food that is
needed. relished and wen digested by
a man working In the open. An in

In many homes the bread is mixed

or husband may do the hard mixing,

Some cooks who are, clever at saw
