Control Of Mango
in Hogs is Urged
Infested Hogs Are Discount
ed From $3.50 to So Cwt.
Remedy Simple

A little time and money spent
on controlling mango in hogs will
prove a very profitable invest
ment, says the weekly market bull
letin issued by the Central CO.
Operative association at South st.
Paul.
The value Of hog to the pack
er is lowered from $1.50 to even
So per cwt., when it is infested
with mango. That loss on the pre-
sent average weight of hogs
amounts to approximately S. to
81 per head.
The best pork cuts cannot be
obtained from NANCY hogs, since
it is necessary in virtually every
instance, to skin the animals. This
involves labor and destroys the
market value of carcasses. Con-
sequently, market prices for man.
gy hogs are severely penalised.
: Several classes Of dips are re-
commended for controlling this
parasitic disease. The most econ
omical is the oil remedy. Crude
petroleum oils drained from crank
cases of automobiles or any gaso-
line motor are commonly and sue
cessly used for treating NANCY
hogs. A simple method used BY
many farmers is by dipping man
gy or "lousy" hogs in a vat filed
with water to within six or eight
inches of the dip line, to which OH
has been added. Oil floats on the
water forming a layer six or
eight inches deep. AS the hogs
swim through the vat, their bod
les become coated with oil. This
dip is used cold and one treatment
usually is sufficient to completely
eradicate mites or lice.

ELSBERG MAKES
2 YEAR REPORT

Work Of the state highway de-
partment in 1888 and 1884, as out
lined in it's biennial report just is
sued, includes the following:
Grading, 529 miles; crawling,
TAP miles; bituminous surfacing,
451 miles; paving, 154 miles; paw
ing base, 1877 miles; shouldering,
14S miles, new bridges, 81; brid-
ges widened, 80; bridges rebuilt
or repaired, 633; grade crossings
eliminated, 27; dangerous center
piers eliminated in underpasses,
Is. In 1885 the report says, it is
hoped to eliminate all remaining
center piers on the trunk system.
Official mileage of the system,
by types, is shown asss follows:
Total system, 1889 miles, which
is made up of 1856 miles of con-
crete paving, 1O1 miles of blum
nous pavement 3s086 miles Of
bituminous treated gravel, $3.50
miles of untreated gravel, "a
miles of graded dirt roads and 872
miles Of ungraded dirt road. A
considerable portion Of the gravel
ed roads, the report states, hardly
comes up to that classification be-
cause the crawling is so light and
is on inferior grades or founda-
tons. Much of this type of road
was added to the system in the
1884 expansion.
Owing to federal regulations
governing most of the highway
construction of the past biennium,
the work was broken up into
many small projects widely scat
tered over the state. This was
done as an employment measure
and resulted in providing more
jobs, says the report, but it also
increased the cost of the work.

CITY Will PRESS
EFFORT TOSTAMP
OUT BOOTLECCINC
Warning Says Maximum Jail
Term Will be Asked
for Offenders

With the sentencing Friday of
Glenn Bolick, 20 years old, to 80
days in the county Jail on a liquor
charge, Leon II. Brown, city at
torney, issued a warning to Red
wood Falls bootleggers that the
city is determined to stamp out
all traffic in illegal liquor and will
deal drastically with offenders.
81 will recommend that boot
leggers be given the limit in Jail
sentences, 80 days." Mr.. Brown
stated, with no let-offs on fines.
In addition" he added, police Of
ficials have been instructed to stop
spiking with illegal liquor in pub
lie places.
"Those who try to evade the
law by filing legal bottles with il
legal liquor" the city attorney
concluded, will be guilty Of fell
ony and subject to prosecution by
the state. Convictions will bring
from one to seven years imprison-
ment in the state penitentiary."
Appearing before Judge Thomas
F. Reed in municipal court, Bolick
was charged under the state law
of having possession with purpose
of sale, illegal liquor without the
necessary manufacturers name,
registration number and tax
stamps. Three half pints of alco-
hol were found in his possession
when he was arrested February
%. C. L. Maurstad made the ar
rest. Bolick had been warned re-
peatedly.
Werner Brockhoff of Vesta who
pleaded not guilty February 26 to
a drunkenness and disorderly con-
duct charge at a dance at Vesta
changed his plea to guilty Satur-
day and was fined $13 by Judge
Reed.

Another administration measure
is one to increase the tax on
money and credits from three
mills to five mills. This will add
little revenue unless the collec-
tons Of this tax are improved. It
is reliably estimated that only
about Is per cent of the money
and credits is taxed now so the
crux Of the matter is q tighter
grip on the leakage in this re-
spect. Increasing the tax, will
chase more of the money to cover
and very little more revende will
be realized unless a fool-proof sys-
tenn of assessing is adopted.

of England, France and Germany
- other enlightened countries -
they would realize that we in
America have only scratched the
surface as regard to these taxes.
1t is conceded, however, that the
combined income from the pro-
posed taxes would not bring in
sufficient revenue to replace any
substantial part of the now pro-
hibitive tax on property. To replace
any great amount of the present
levy on real estate, a broad and
general tax must be adopted along
with the governors proposals. 1t
appears at the present time that
a gross income tax would meet
this requirement and, what is
more important, would be fair to
the general public.
Hunting Laughs
Interesting indeed and laugh
able also are the attempts of
members of the house to inform
the others in regard to good legis-
lation when they are uniformed.
When the bill which asks that
hunters obtain the permission of
the occupant before they proceed
to hunt reached the floor some of
the Twin Cities representatives
viewed with alarm the idea that
they must ask permission before
crossing private property. They
pointed with pride to the fact that
the huntsmen from the two cities
paid heavy hunting license fees;
that they are very interested in
the propagation of wild game and
appealed to the country members
in the name of craftsmanship to
oppose this malicious bill.
In spite of anything that the
state or city sportsmen can do,
the propagation of pheasants and
other game birds depends directly
on the good will of farmers. Real
sportsmen who have studied the
situation believe that it is only
fair and sportsmanlike to seek
permission from the owner before
hunting. If hunters and land
owners would send their stand on
this measure, it would be greatly
appreciated.

at the Luverne hospital. Death
was caused by the rupturing of a

pressure against the chest in using

and the strain by using the tool
was too much for him.

D. c. TOPS STATES
IN SUICIDE RATE
Figures, However, Show
Capital Is Fourth Among
Cities of Nation.

The suicide rate in the District tops
that of any State, the Census Bureau
revealed yesterday. but Washington
ranks fourth among the cities OF the
Nation on self destruction statistics.
The rate per 100000 here in 1898
was 341. Nevada was the ranking
State with 33,3, while San Francisco
heads the list of cities with 80.
The rate in the Far West is ahead
of all other sections of the country.
Excluding Nevada, high suicide States
are California, Colorado, Wyoming
and Oregon.
Ranking ahead Of Washington and
below San Francisco on the city list
are Denver, 37.g, and San Diego, Calf,
36.9. The fifth city Is Portland, Greg,
32.4.
Southern States, mainly because Of
large colored population, rank lowest.
Mississippi in 1888 had only SIS sui
cides per 100 900; Arkansas, 64, and
South Carolina, ST.
The Districts rate was more than
twice the general average for the coun-
try, 15.9 per 100000, a downward step
from the previous year for the first
time since the depression began.
The urban rate was per cent
higher than that of the country as a
whole, with New York City far in the
lead numerically with 1856. How
ever, the ratio in the Nations metropo-
lis was only 10 per 100000
The three cities with the lowest
rates are Somerville, NJ j., 85; Fail
River, Mass, 81, and Jersey City, 8.8.
