house Saturday night to consider the
question Of the passage Of a bill now
pending in the Legislature provid-
ing for a bond issue Of $4,000 for
water and sewer Improvements in
the town.
The real fight against the bill was
presented in the form OF a motion
made by Gordon Tun for an amend
ment to the bill providing for a ref

dunn and As for II. Only the taxpay-
ers OF the town voted on the ques-
ton Afterward a motion was made

BROWN
SPRINGFASHION
Shaping Up of Soft Lids
Will Continue as Style
For Men
DERBIES STILL
ARE IN DEMAND

Let any one who hopes for an
early spring look not to the weep
ing skies for hope. but let him
glance at the burgeoning shrubs in
Brandywine Park and then take a
peep in the shop windows and sur
vey the new spring hats-for men.
Spring hats for women are apt to
appear at any time. but winters
backbone is about broken when men
start buying those soft lightweight
felt lids. And they are both light
and soft this season. and in all
colors. just so It is brown with
wide band and not too wide a brim.
Popular winter methods OF shap-
ing up the soft hats will remain in
style this spring. according to best
authorities. That is, the pinched
circle, the sunken triangle and the
four-cornered dent will continue to
push the old-fashioned straight
crease clear off the crown of the
fashionable hat.
But back TO those browns, In ad-
ditlon to all the old shades OF brown
one OF the hat importers has a new
English brown" and a "seezon
brown" which are a sort of-but II
is best to 20 look at them to get the
right idea. Then there are a few
new shades OF gray, which will
probably run second to the browns.
These include the French gray. the
blush graphite and a kind OF hori-
zon gray. The makers OF mems hats
are not as prolific in color names
as dealers in women's fabrics.
Richest looking OF them all Is a
very lightweight soft beaver hat, in
natural beaver color. which Is an
extremely light brown. so light It is
hardly brown at all. But which will
be the popular successor the com
bination velour" Is still doubtful.
Derbies still sell. however. in
spring as we'll as in the fall and win
ter. Even brown derbies are sold
now and then, and a rumor went
the round of the hatters last week
that a pearl-gray derby had actually
been sold to a visiting actor.

TRY TOCONTROL
HOG cholera
State Board of Agriculture
Will Cooperate to This
End
GIVES INSTRUCTIONS
AS TO TREATMENT

Special to The Evening Journal.
DOVER, March 6.-The State
Board of Agriculture has sent out
the following instructions relative.to
treatment OF hog cholera:
"Hog cholera destroys more hogs
in the United States than all other
diseases combined. The losses have
amounted to more than 100000
hogs in one year, and the money
losses reach many million dollars
annually. Many OF the ways in
which hog cholera is carried from
farm to farm. and by shipping and
driving feeder and breeding hogs,
can be avoided by the exercise OF
proper care.
Sanitation, disinfection. self-inn-
posed quarantine, and vaccination
when necessary are important fac
tors In protecting hogs against chol-
era infection.
The State Board of Agriculture
aims to reduce losses to the mini
mum and in order TO do this, the CO.
operation Of all concerned is essen
tial to success. There are many so
called tonlcs advertised to do won
ders for hogs, none OF them, how
ever, have any value as cure or
preventive for hog cholera.
"Anti-hog cholera serum and
virus IS now recognized as the only
reliable preventive agent in con-
trolling hog cholera. For the past
several years, the State has furnished
serum and virus to the farmers free
OF charge, large sums OF money hav-
ing been appropriated by the Legis-
lature for this purpose.
THE legislature Of 1921 decided
TO discontinue the appropriation for
free serum and virus, but did appro-
pirate an amount sufficient TO enable
the state Board OF Agriculture to
keep on hand sufficient serum and
virus to meet the demand. This will
be sold at cost to veterinarians in
Delaware for use in the State.
"As a result OF the discontinuance
OF free serum some farmers may
neglect to vaccinate their hogs when
necessary. The State Board Of
Agriculture therefore wishes to ad-
wise that all farmers shall report
promptly any case of sick hogs,
either TO the veterinarian or to the
state Board Of Agriculture. Inves-
tigation OF swine diseases will be
made free OF charge by the Federal
| Veterinarian.
THE law provides that no veter-
marian receiving serum and virus
under the provision of this act shall
charge a fee greater than so cents
per head for inoculatlon. The new
law will go into effect March Is,
1929.
