CLEAN PIG PASTURES
HELP FIGHT DISEASE

Bookings, S. d.. April 10.-A system
of management which provides a
clean pasture for the pigs as soon as
il is possible to move them from the
permanent hog lots is recommended
as one of the most effective means OF
combating necrotic enteritis, which
disease probably kills more pigs htan
any other. Something may also be
accomplished in the way OF prevent
ing this disease by giving an internal
antisceptic such as a copper sulphate
solution, suggests DIR. G.. S. Weaver,
extension veterinarian at State Col
,lege. Pigs weighing from 40 TO GO
pounds are especially susceptible to
this disease.
"Necrotic cnteritis is a form OF
NEGRO bacillosis," says DIR. Weaver,
land is caused by a germ that is
present on nearly every farm. The
germ has the power Of killing tissue
and this ~characterizes the disease, as
various kinds of ulcers develop at
the point of infection. The internal
..orns. known as IecTotis eRteTitis.
causes a general unthriftiness of pigs
along about the time they are eight
or ten weeks old. The Innings of the
intestines die and slough of. AS a
result the pig cannot digest his food
and has chronic diarrhea. He may
cat and drink somewhat but gets poor
and thin. finally wasting away. Most
,ips 81 affected finally lie
Treatment OF the sick pig is lot
very satisfactory and any sort of vac
cine is an experiment as yet. All sick
pigs should be separated from the
other hogs so hat the disease will
not spread SO rapidly"

QUARTERS
FOR HOGS IMPORTANT

If hog raising is to be a profitable
business the animals must be kept
healthy. This requires that sanitary
quarters and equipment be provided.
Hog houses can be designed and
built of concrete block so as to salts
fly every requirement. They possess
all the advantages of houses built of
other materials, and when properly
built have none of the disadvantages.
Concrete block is used in construct
ing not only the walls of the house
itself, but also in inclosing small run
ways at the front. A good design is
known as the half-monitor type. 1t

that sunlight may enter through both

dows. A passageway runs from one
end to the other, which facilitates
cleaning the bins, which are located
at both sides of the passageway.
At one end some space is set off
for feed storage and mixing. Provi-
sion is made here for the cooking Of
feed, which is especially advantag-
eous in cold weather and for early
spring filters.
The swine house should be kept
comparatively warm, either with q
small heater or by insulating the walls
so that the animal heat is retained

French economic activities has been
decided by the French government.
This decision, which, according to ad-
vices received by the Bankers Trust
Company from its French information
service, was foreshadowed by Mr..
Poincare In a recent speech to the
French Chamber Of Commerce, aims
at the adjustment of all commercial
treaties in the interest of French

Will Make Soil Study
In Irrigation Sections

MOSCOW, Ida.-By. special request
of Dr. Elwood Mead, recently appoint
ed commissioner of reclamation, VINO
recently investigated irrigation prof.
ects in southern Idaho, the Agricul-
tural Experiment Station of the Uni
versity of Idaho will cooperate in soils
Istudies Of certain sections OF south
western Idaho included in the pro-
posed Owyhee irrigatio on project.
Plans for the investigation were COM
pleted at recent meeting with DR..
Mead's party and Prof. G. r. McDole,
associate professor of agronomy and
soil technologist of the experiment
station.
The Owyhee project, which it is
proposed will use storage waters of
the Owyhee River, will include approx
imately 10000 acres Of land in the
northernmost part of Owyhee County
and 100000 acres of land in eastern
Oregon. The Idaho section is what
is termed the Gem District and is now
partly included in pumping projects
and includes somes portions of desert,
non-irrigated land.
The work which the University Ex-
pertinent Station has been asked 70
perform will be soils survey to de-
termine the feasibility Of the proposed
project and those lands in the project
best adapted to irrigation farming
Information regarding the depth, tex
ture and productivity Of the soil will
be obtained, and two men now doing
similar work near Soda Springs, F..
10. Youngs Of the U. S. Bureau Of
Soils, and A. j. Kerns of the Univer-
sity of Idaho Experiment Station,
have been detailed to commence the
survey Immediately.
DR.. Mead, who has had eight years
experience of reclamation work in
Australia and further work in CalifCr-
mia, has inaugurated the plan of OBJ
tanning such data prior to installation
of irrigation projects, which would
eliminate the possibility of including
lands which from an economic stand
point it would not pay to include in
irrigable lands, mistake which has
been made many times in the past in
Western irrigation projects. Such a
system of prior investigation has been
advocated by the Idaho institution for
several years, and the experiment
in furthering the work on the pro-
posed Owyhee project, concerning
which considerable discussion has
been made for the past several years.

OF ESTATE RESTS
ON TIME OF TWO DEATHS

NEW YORK-New York attorneys
were working recently on case in
which the disposition of 100000 es
tate depends upon which of two men,
who met death on opposite sides Of
the globe at almost the same hour,
was the first to die.
The estate is that of Captain Cole
man of the San Francisco Vigilantes
of Argonaut days, His. heirs were a
son, Robert Louis Coleman, San Fran
cisco financier, and a grandson, Will
liam T. Coleman Of Monrovia, Cal.
The son, with George B. De Long
New York broker, was slain by high
waymen in Albania last April 6, while
on tour of the world. At that same
date the grandson died at his home in
California. How the 100000 estate
shall be divided, and whether the de-
scendants of the son or grandson
shall receive the major share depends
on which of the two died first.
John F. Bowie, an attorney of this
city, has been requested to learn the
hour and minute when Robert Louis
Coleman and his companion were
slain on the Tierana-Scutari highway
in Albania. Gable dispatches, which
thus far have been Mr.. Bowie's only
source Of information, placed the hour
at 10 A. M, April 6, Albanian time.
William T. Coleman was reported to
have died at 1 A. NJ, April 6, San
Francisco time.
AS there are nine hours difference
between Albanian time and San Fran.
cisco time, it would appear from the
news dispatches that the son and
grandson died at the same hour and
that disposition of the estate hinges
upon determination of the approx
mate minute of death. Mr.. Bowie said,
however, that the official records
showed that William T. Coleman died
at $3.50 A. NJ, which would indicate
that he survived his uncle in Albania
by two and half hours

THE WHEAT SITUATION

had no great nor any surplus of mill
ing wheat last year; that all Of the
wheat produced has been absorbed,
the good wheat in this country and
the poor wheat, grown east of the
Rocky Mountains, in foreign countries.
1t has all gone into consumption and
1t would all have gone into consump-
ton had the farmer received, as he
should have, 10 or Is cents bushel,
at the lowest, more than he did re-
ceiye. The country, not raising mill
ing wheat as much as needed, our
mills during the past IL months have
imported 26,0O0,OOO bushels of Cana
dian wheat and paid the duty on it.
Tie price Of our milling wheat in the
light of these facts should have been
he world price, plus the duty.
Now, everything that he said year
ago is admitted. The alleged surplus
has disappeared: with relatively
small decrease in the world produc-
ton, the price of wheat has gone soar
ing, for previous production was not
of any great surplus, but was barely
sufficient to meet the worlds con-
sumptive demands. The world has not
produced enough wheat this year to
fully meet those demands; the carry
over of last years crop is hardly up
to the normal; the world has Weakened
up to the fact and the price of wheat
goes up. But had it not been for the
propaganda about over-production and
tremendous surplus, against which Mr..
French fought his losing fight, the
millers and exporters would have had
to pay much higher price for tue
wheat Of last years crop. The propa-
ganda cost the wheat farmers of this
state from $6,0O0,OOO to $1O,000,000.
At that, however, the persistent fight
to bring the truth to light did result
in creating the condition that the Sc
attic price for wheat was, throughout
the entire season, relatively higher
than the Chicago price.
Here is the present world situation
in regard to wheat: The crop Of last
| year LIDS HpAOC0ly O1Sdpp0dk-
ed into consumption. The crop in the
United States is practically back to
the prewar level, with estimated pro-
duction of 74O,0OO,OOO bushels, 46,000,
200 bushels less than last year. The
Canadian crop promises to be at least
150,000,000 less than that Of last year.
The crops in Europe are smaller than
last year. Taking the whole northern
hemisphere, the crop promises to fall
short of that of last year by possibly
10 per cent. But that is not all. The
rye crop of Europe is also hurt, some
estimates being that it will fall Is per
cent below that Of last year. If there
had been, as claimed, tremendous
reproduction last year, there would
have been carry-over sufficient to
make good this deficit. AS there was
no such surplus, the work faces a
serious shortage of breadstuffs, and,
as the facts are now known, the
farmer will get fair price for his
wheat this year. Had there not been
persistent distortion of the facts and
persistent propaganda of the tire
mendous surplus" fake, the farmer
would have received fair price last
year.

more than S24, 100000 year in fertilizing
elements of farm manure. This loss comes
from the failure to save the liquid content;
uncontrolled fermentation OF the manure;
and teaching or the washing out of soluble
plant food. Pound for pound the liquid
content is worth more than the solids and
the greatest single item of loss is the
liquid content. Where the manure is
thrown outside the barn, with no protec-
ton, the liquid content soaks into the
ground, the plant food is washed out by
the rain, and uncontrolled fermentation
largely destroys the value of the remainder.

As it is usually not practical to use
enough bedding to absorb all liquids, a
cistern should be built near the pit to
hold the unabsorbed portion. For the
cistern and pit floor use concrete mixed
in the proportion of one sack of portland
cement to two cubic feet of sand and
three cubic feet of pebbles. The proper
ton for the walls should be 1894. The
walls of the pit should be built first.
When the floor is placed a one-half inch
space should be left around the edge
which is later filled with tar to make
watertight joint. For ten COWS pit 10 feet
longby 10 feet wide and 4 feet deep is large
enough. For 20 cows the pit should be
"a feet long by 20 wide and 4 feet deep.
