AS GERM CARRIERS.
Ex-Service Men Will Be Innocu-
lated to Get SCARLET Fever
Remedy.

CHICAGO, April 15.-Twelve for
mer service men watched the rain
yesterday against the windows at
Mccormick Institute of Infectious
Diseases. They smoked innumerable
cigarettes and discussed other rainy
days of Armentieres and Cantigny
and the Argonne.
They glanced nervously at a door
that would admit white-aproned
surgeon with $1,000 check in one
hand and swah full of virulent
scarlet fever germs in the other. All
the twelve had volunteered to sub
NIT to tests OF the germs. Once
they-had volunteered for the sake
of humanity and now they were
willing to volunteer again for the
same reason.
Two famous pathologists had call
ed for volunteers In order to dis
cover a serum to prevent the ravages
of scarlet fever. For each man Sc
lected, the physicians agreed to pay
$1,000. Three of the twelve were
chosen yesterday and germs placed in
their throats. III they show no signs
of the fever in a week others will
undergo the same test.

that this board should be composed of

FINDS MONEY IN III.
FEEDING HOGS NOW
RECEIVES ABOUT DOUBLE PRICE
FOR CORN WHEN MARKETED
IN PORK BARRELS.
(From Fridays Daily Herald)

tfrom Fridays Daily Herald.)
That there is money in feeding hogs
at the present prices of corn was
demonstrated by Sam Fl. Wiley. mer
chant at McCains. Mr.. Wiley bought
a few shoats, turned them on pasture
and fed them for a few weeks. He
weighed the hogs when he purchased
them and weighed all the feed that
he gave them When he sold his hogs
he found that he had received $3.50
for the corn that he had fed, which
is nearly twice as much as he could
have obtained for the grain had he
marketed it direct and not through
the pork barrel. Several other farm.
ers have kept record of their feeds
used and the gains made on their
hogs and they have found it ; quite
profitable also to take this method OF
corn.
