Judge, I paid my fare, and had

my hand, and having no place to put
it, 1 put it in my mouth. It's the first
time it has ever happened, judge"
"All right, Murphy" answered Judge

this time. But suppose you had an
umbrella in your hand?"
Murphy grinned, and left the court

first eliminate the probability of sick
ness in swine as being cholera. In
other words, the importance of cor
rect diagnosis cannot be overesti-
mated.
1.-THE proper direct remedial agen-
cies necessary to control hog cholera
are anti-hog cholera serum and hog
cholera virus when certain conditions
exist For the treatment of hogs with
anti-hog cholera serum, two principal
methods are recognized, one, where
only the serum is used, the other
when virus is used in conjunction
with serum. Anti-hog cholera serum
contains substancesvwhich oppose the
causative agent of cholera; it cannot
under any circumstances produce
cholera. Hog cholera virus on the
other hand is the causative agent and
will produce the disease. =.
1.-THE immunity conferred by the in
lection of anti-hog cholera serum alone
in normal and healthy hog is one of
rather short duration, it being consid-
cred between four and six weeks,
while in many instances it Is less than
that Immunity produced as a result
Of the use of serum and virus is be-
lieved to be life long. =. 1s'- =
"Many hogs develop hog cholera aft
or being injected with serum and VI
rus. Some become very sicl and some
die as a result of this treatment, but
the majority never show physical evil
dence of this disease. Pigs sick with
the disease will often scatter and
spread the infection. For this reason.
it is considered that every time swine
are double treated (serum and virus)
hog cholera is introduced upon the
premises. - H. ~.
"The State Livestock Sanitary
Board has declared that an area with
in a radius of six miles of point
where hog cholera exists shall be con-
sidered as infected territory. In es..
tablishing such territory, a description
Of the farm on which the disease is
found must be forwarded to the board.
This is recorded and legally establish
es the area as infected territory. A
permit to immunize any or all the
hogs within this area with serum and
virus is issued to qualified and
licensed veterinarian. On farms where
cholera exists, a placard announcing
that hog cholera exists on these prem.
ises' must be posted. On farms where
serum and virus are used, a placard
stating that hogs are quarantined'
for at least 81 days and longer If the
hogs are sick must be posted. -
''When a farmer wishes to have his
hogs immunized by the serum and
virus method, he should request his
veterinarian to apply for a permit to
the State Livestock Sanitary Board.
He must sign a quarantine agreement
that none of the treated animals or
any article or thing that is likely to-
convey contagion shall be taken off
the place: that sickness or death OF
any Of the swine viii be reported i'm

LOCAL MANAGERS PRAISE REHEARSAL Theatre Managers Criticize Dress Rehearsal of "The
 Microbe of Love"

That every detail, even of minor importance, would be perfect, the managers of the Jefferson, Loew' s and Eyric theatres were asked to at tend the first dress rehearsal at the Southern club, last night of the Legion play. The Microbe of Love"
 Walter Crosby, Harry Portman and Brown Parkes, the latter acting for R. S. Douglas, were asked to give their candid opinions.
 I'm really surprised at the ease of manner with which the chorus girls handled their parts. Twenty under twenty truly describes them and as pretty a bunch as anyone would want to see on any stage" commented MT. Portman, manager of Loew's."
 Say for me-" advised MT. Crosby of the Lyric. Birmingham theatre goers have often paid top prices for performances that were not equal to the Legion's staging of the Microbe of Love.'
 Brown Parkes statement was as follows: "Candidly it didn't look like rehearsal, not play staged by amateurs. It certainly is smooth running play. If the actual perfor- nance on May equals the dress re- hearsals, and there's no reason why 1t shouldn't. the American Legion will certainly have accomplished a big thing"

Auditorium Money Draws
 Interest While It Waits
City Has Half Block Site and $427, ,36244 of Half Mill lion Bond Issue Voted by People in 1919-Dixon
 Opposed to Auditorium With Only 1000 Seats

Of the s50o,000 auditorium bond issue ratified in August. 1919. the city now has balance of $42736244 on hand and an auditorium site, one block in length and one-half block in width, purchased for $92,650,50.
 The bonds were sold December 1, 1919, at par and an additional pre- mlum of $50, making q total of s500,- 050 derived from the sale.
 Local architects and Commissioner w. F.. Dickson, under whose super vision the construction of an audi torium would be placed. have esti- mated that an additional bond issue of S500,000 would furnish ample funds to construct an auditorium that would seat at least 5000 persons. Ac- cording to Commissioner Dickson, the present balance on hand Is suffi- cient to construct an auditorium with a seating capacity of less than 4,000 and such step would. in his opin- ion, be q serious mistake on the part of the city.
 The original bond issue which brought S500,050. was voted in Au- gust of 1919 and in the latter part of 1920, according to H. NJ. Taylor, city comptroller, the auditorium site was purchased on the corner of Twentieth street and Eighth avenue directly north of Capitol park at an expenditure of s92.650. No other ex- penditures, of material consequence.
