ponds all of the services that we demand
from government: schools, roads, police
protection, health service, farm assistance,
courts, charity, social security and so ON.
It is right and proper that all candidates
and all voters should demand economy in
government and reasonable taxation, but
good citizenship and good government de-
pend upon payment of taxes.
We may not always like to admit it, but
there is no escape from death and taxes.

WeH-Fed Hogs Need
Very Little Medicine

Good feeding practices, sanitation,
and vaccination for hog cholera still
are the best methods of producing
healthy hogs for market although
work done at Michigan State College
indicates that necrotic enteritis in
swine may be partially controlled by
feeding yeast, ground liver, and
NICOTINE acid.
Howard Dawson, animal hus-
bandry diseases always is followed
by sales campaigns for remedies.
Many outbreaks of necrotic enteritis
are associated with filthy housing or
range conditions for the hogs.
Professor V. r. Freeman, who did
the experimental work at Michigan
State, reports that hogs affected
with enteritis frequently develop
secondary diseases of the liver,
lungs, or digestive system; and, in
such cases, nicotine acid had little
or no benefit in controlling the dis
ease. 1t is apparent that Ohio pork
producers should still raise hogs in
clean quarters.
1t also appears from the results of
this experimental work that necrotic
enteritis seeks out hogs that already
are in an unthrifty condition due to
lack of proper feeds. Liver, yeast,
and nicotine acid supply consider
able quantities of vitamin B1,
Barley in the hog ration also seemed
to help ward off enteritis of swine
at Michigan State.
Barley carries quite a high con-
tent of vitamin B1, but yellow corn
is one of the poorest sources of this
vitamin. Whole wheat, wheat germ,
bran, and soybeans also should be
good sources of the nutritional fac
tor that acts as preventative OF
necrotic enteritis.
Mr.. Dawson repeats that preven-
ton of all animal diseases is less
expensive and more practical than
curing animals which become sick.
Thrifty, well-fed hogs on good pas
ture or in clean lots seldom require
treatment other than vaccination for
cholera prevention.

Twas This Way
BY LYLE SPENCER
a Western Newspaper Union.


MO ONE spent night in a hotel
IN a century ago if he could pos
sibly avoid it. The fact was, no
real hotel in the modern sense of
the word then existed.
The guest who retired for the
night in the ordinary "inn" never
knew whom he might find beside
him when he awoke in the morning.
A hotel keeper thought nothing of
telling one lodger to move over"
and share his bed with late ar
rival. Three or four people fire.
quently slept in one bed spoon FASH
ion, and women were sometimes
"roomed" with men in rush seasons.
The first inn definitely recognized
as a modern first-class hotel was
the fremont house in Boston, Mass,
opened in October, 1929. 1t con-
tanned ITO rooms, and its rate was
81 day, including four meals.
Travelling men considered 1t a
rare privilege to be permitted to
rent a single room instead of doub-
ling up with strangers. Some of
the innovations made by the Tre-
mont house were an individual key
for each room, wash bowl and a
pitcher filled with fresh water daily.
Gas lights were another attrac-
ton. A mild sensation was created
when they offered to give a free
cake of soap to each and every
guest. And the biggest sensation OF
all was "a fine supply of running
water in the eight bathing rooms in
