HOG YARD SURROUNDINGS

Damp, shady surroundings, as well
as stagnant water and mud holes,
around hog watering troughs should
be drained and filed In now to pre-
vent parasitic infection of young pigs,
suggests DR.. J. B. Taylor, assistant at
the animal health laboratory at State
college. The hog houses should be
regularly cleaned and disinfected and
troughs for feed and water should be
kept clean. A feeding floor of cement
Is best.
Large pastures and lots may be in
tested with the eggs Of parasites, says
DR.. Taylor, and under such conditions
1t is hard to successfully enforce pre-
ventive measures. In such cases hogs
should be given medicinal treatment
and then removed to new grounds and
the old grounds put under cultivation.
The removal of old manur piles and
straw stack does away with the grub
worm which harbors the egg of a GER
tain worm which infests hogs.

In this exceptionally refined car seems

luxurious comfort. Cleanly chiseled
body lines rejecting the latest foreign
practice flow squarely back from tho
cowl. The body is painted richly
toned dark green, with the upper quarter
done in black. Square side lamps are
carried. Disc wheels hide the springs
and under parts from view. Individual
doorsteps, with seperate tenders, add
note of dignity to the whole ensemble.
The interior appointments closely fol-

such success seems assured.
This Is evidenced by the fact that
