DECLINE PREDICTED
IN HOG SHIPMENTS
Data Secured From Farmers In
dictate Pig Crop Is Much
Smaller Than Last Year

The decline in the number Of hogs
to be marketed by Minnesota farmers
this fall. as compared with last year.
will probably be at least IS per cent
greater than that shown by the gov
eminent pig survey issued late this
week. says H. G. Zavoral, livestock
specialist. University Farm, St. Paul,
who explains that losses of pigs from
disease have reduced the numbers
materially since the government fig
ureS were taken.
Data secured from farmers through
the aid Of rural mail carriers indicate
a decrease in the pig crop for Min
nesota of a. per cent, compared with
1928. Mr.. zavoral. who contacts
thousands of hog producers all over
the state and keeps closely informed
on the swine situation, declared that
mortality in young pigs has been
markedly higher this year than last,
and he estimates the total crop for
the state will be at least s per cent
lower than for 1923.
These losses have been quite gen.
eral over the state and have oc-
CURED mainly in pigs six weeks old.
While these deaths mean a financial
loss to individual owners, the decrease
in total numbers will tend to improve
prices for those remaining. MI. Zavoral
asserts, and to that extent will bene-
fit the industry in general.
DR.. G. p. Fitch, chief of the veterin-
ary division at University Farm,
states that more complaints have
come in from farmers this spring than
ever before. in regard to what is COM
monty called ancmia Of young pigs
and it is this condition which has
been partially responsible for the i'm
creased mortality, he says.
The causes, as well as the exact
nature of the disease is still in doubt
by veterinarians. However, DR.. H. G.
H. Kernkamp of the division is MAX
ing an intensive study in hopes of
finding a prevention 1r remedy. Many
farmers have sent specimens Of dead
pigs to University farm Tor EXAM
ination. In some cases, the blood has
been found to be definitely affected.
while in other cases the heart MEN,
branes have shown evidence of dis
ease.
Worms and necrotic cnteritis have
taken their usual tolls of the spring
pig crop, says DR.. Fitch, and a few
cases of cholera have been reported
SO far. Danger from anemia is now
past SO far as spring pigs are con-
ccrned, he believes. since the bulk of
them have reached an age of i'm
clunity.

NATURAL GAS
SUPPLY FOR M|NOT
farmers North Of Maxbass Seek
Capital for Drilling Add.
tional Wells

Proposals to supply Minot with
natural gas may be made by a group
OF Bottineau county farmers If their
dreams conne true. A we'll which al
ready is producing gas north of Max
bass Is the foundation for their hopes.
Gems Nelson of Ross. N. D.. here to
obtain a permit to drill additional
wells as provided by a new state law.
said q group Of farmers brought III a
gas we'll last October which they be-
lieve capable Of producing a million
cubic feet Of gas a day. When the
we'll was brought III, he said. it
showed a pressure of % pounds. Only
a little Of it has been used. however.
and the pressure now is 100 pounds,
he said. e. A. Schulthcis. a farmer
living near the well. has been using
the gas for cooking, lighting and
heating. Nelsoo said.
Nelson and others plan to raise
$4,000 by subscription and put down
ten additional wells. The one on the
Schultheis farm Is only 10 feet deep
ait. cost less than $500. In putting
down ten additional wells. however. 1t
will be necessary to connect them with
pipes and to install other equipment
which will use up all Of the $4,000.
II the additional wells are pro-
ducers, Nelson said. the field will
have been tested and farmers living
In the vicinity then may be able to
interest capital In the development.
In drilling the new test wells an cf-
fort will be made to ascertain II a
dome which may contain oil exists in
the vicinity. II such is the case, he
said, they may be able to raise money
to drill . deep we'll to prospect for oil.
Many water wells In the vicinity
produce gas. Nelson said. and some
farmers have lighted their homes
with It for years.

GOLD STAR MOTHERS
May VISIT FRANCE
Privileges Are Promised for Rel
atives Of Soldiers Buried
OF Foreign Fields

indianapolis. July l.-Gold Star
mothers and widows of World war
veterans buried in France will be in
tercstei in an article that will ap-
pear in the July issue of the Ameri-
can Legion monthly. which tells of
plans the government is making to
conduct free pilgrimages to the Amer
lean cemeteries in Europe and the
battlefields of the World War. Let
tiers are now being sent out by the
al department in an effort to find
out how many mothers and widows
desire to make the trip.
Since the World War there have
been many simple pilgrimages by
mothers and widows to the cemeter-
les in France" the Legion articles will
say. but most of the bereft mothers
OF America whose sons bodies are
still buried in France and most Wild
ows have found the difficulties of a
long voyage to a strange country in
s~urmountable.
Nov, however. every Gold Star
mother of a service ma buried over
seas and every widow who has not re-
married since the death of her hus-
band may make the long overseas
journey to q loved ones grave, UNI
troubled by any difficulties. The
United States government has made
provision for conducting them on
quiet pilgrimages TO the cemeteries
abroad. Congress in last March
passed a law making the pilgrimages
possible and provided that all ar
rangements should be directed by the
secretary Of war and all expenses
should be met out Of public funds.
National Adjutant James F. Bar
ton has asked that all posts of the
American Legion and all units of the
American Legion auxiliary do every
thing possible to inform mothers and
widows of the pilgrimages. He has
requested that posts and units report
the names of the mothers and Wild
owS of their communities to Major
General B. F. Cheatham. Quarter
master General, War Department,
Washington, d. G. Full name of son
or husband should be given. the
branch in which he served and the
cemetery in which he Is buried over
seas.
Congress has provided that the pill
grinageS shall be made by small
groups during the period from May l,
1880. to October 81, 1888. and each
group will be in Europe for a period
Of two weeks. Cabin class accommo-
cations will be furnished on steam
Ships for all those making the pill
grimages. The secretary Of war will
prescribe regulations IS to the time
for each group pilgrimage, itineraries,
the composition Of groups, accommo-
dations, transportation. program,
management and all other details.
"Stepmothers, mothers through
adoption and any woman who held
the place Of q parent to a deceased
member Of the military or naval
forces for a year : before he entered
service Will be entitled to the priv
'Aese Of the pilgrimage. Only widows
who have not remarked since the
deaths Of their husbands are eligible

It is the belief of F, o.

II is known that these products oi the glands, called sexual hormoncs. exert an influence on the psychic state of the individual and deter mine also the development of the various sex characters, such as tho hair, beard and Whiskers in man, the depth Of the voice, and the special characters that appear in women.
 Manoilov has been working for some years in an cndeaNor 10 find in the blood the specific substances that are responsible. As result, he has developed chcmicaI test which he has used on all sorts of species, including the human being, and other investigators have re peated his test with considerable amount of success.
 Practically all Of this work has Teen developed in Russia and pub ished in Russian periodicals The most recent contribution by Man- oilov appears in the Am"r.csn Journal of Physical AnthropOlOgy.
 As result of a summary Of all of the evidence, it is now asserted that the Manoilov test permits the distinction of blood from a man from that of woman in from 90 tu gG per cent of cases. It is as serted also that it is possible tO dctcrmin" by the mothers blood the sex or he child before its birth
 in from SS to 96 per cent of cases.
 Obviously, here is a test of the greatest scientific importance, one which will have legal value just as soon as it has been tried on a suf- NCiont number of cases to cstab- fish definitely its limitations. The test is one which can be performed | only by trained tochnician in l physiologic and biOlogic chemistry.
