Reynolds, Minne- sota University Farm. o et e b e S ol oo oo e o o b e b b b B ok Legal Aspects of Hog Cholera. Ev-| ery hog-owner in Minnesota ought to know the principal features ot our| { state law relating to cholera, and the regulations of our state live stock san- itary board. These are for the public| good, and not for public inconvenience or persecution, as farmers sowetiwes ' think. ‘ The Minnesota law provides, con- cerning reporting, that anyons who knows of or has good reasons to sus- pect the existence of auy contagious or infectious disease in any domestic| animal shall immediately report the; same to his local health officer; and| the local health officer, in turn, must! report within twenty-four hours to the' state live stock sanitary board. Therc is a severe peénpalty provided tor the man who knows of infectious disease and does not report tc his lo- cal health officer or to the state board, and also a penalty for the local health! officer who neglects to report to the state board. Each day’s neglect con- stitutes a separate offense. Hog-chol- era is, of course, included under “in- fectious disease and this phase of the law necessarily and wisely applies to this disease. | Our Minnesota law provides ex- plicitly that carcasses of hogs that have died of any disease, shall be! buried under at least three feet of | dirt. Carcasses of hogs that have died of any disease must not be sold, | or offered ‘or sale, or transported along any public highway, under pen-| alty. [t is definitely illegal for an; owner to permit sick hogs to run at large Owners are expressly authorized by the Minnesota law to post quarantine ! notices, in self protection, in case| cholera prevails in the neighborhood. | Regulations of the state live stock sanitary beard provide that unauthor- ized persons must keep out of quar-| antined pens and yards; that hogs| must not be removed from quaran- tined pens excepting under written! permission from the state board. The | official period of quarantine is six months; but it may be terminated sooner by written permission from the | secretary of the state live stock san- itary board. Persons on quarantined | farms where the disease exists must keep away from hog-pens and yards on uninfected farms. All public stock-yards are officially declared as probably infected with hog-cholera. Hogs must not be 're- moved from public stock-yards, except for shipment by rail and for slaughter. This means that hogs coming tn for some farm must not go through the public stock-yards. Hogs imported in- | to the state, except for ‘slaughter. must come in other than stock-cars; for stock-cars are recognized Yy sanitary authorities as liable at any time to be infected with cholera. ITS MISSION NEARLY ENDED . Replaced. The mission of the “little red schoal- house” to the rural life of America seems very nearly ended. The in- crease of populations, the improve- ment of roads, the coming of the au- tomobile, the ambition of the farming community to possess a graded school “as good as that in town”—these are but a part of the influences which are now working to replace the “little red” by the more commanding and serviceable “consolidated school” building. That the latter will turn out more and better scholars is be- yond question; that it will produce greater men, is a debatable point. The hen that does not have grit of some kind in her gizzard is in about the same pickle as the fellow who has lost his own molars and has not had them replaced by a dentist’s set. e e o b Protection of Seed Corn.

We have found white twine about the edges of a corn field, strung on| high poles, and hung with strips of | tin (one about every thirty feet), white rags, etc., to be an excellent de- | vice in keeping crows away from a planted field. If, in addition to this, a few dead crows are suspended from | high poles in different parts of the field, the combination of white twine, bright tin shining in the sun, and_the dead crows as a warning to wouldtbe evil-doers, works so well that the farmer .may rest assured it wil} fe many days before his field is touched by these marauders. This remedy, or the twine alone, by the way, is in quite general use today. Crows can be poisoned by dissolv- ing 10 cents worth of sulphate of strychnine in enough hot water to soak up two quarts of corn. This should be scattered about the field where crows are working late in'the evening that they may find it there in the early morning. 1f scarecrows are used they should be changed occasionally. Forbush, in “Useful Birds and Their Protection,” advises the use of a barrel hung on a leaning pole. One of the safest and best ways of tarring corn, and yet not affecting its use in a planter, is one originating in Massachusetts. “Put one-fourth to one-half bushel of corn in a half-bar- vel tub; pour in a pailful of hot water, | or as much as is necessary to well cover the corn; dip a stick in gas-tar, | and stir this briskly in the corn; re- peat until the corn is entirely black; pour off on to burlap (bran sacks, are good): spread in the sun, and stir two or three times during the day. If this work is done in the morning, and the day is sunny, the corn will be ready for the planter the next day without any other care” A machine will eas- 1ly handle corn treated in this way. Deep planting, three or four inches, will, in some heavy soils, .discourage the crow. If one s a good enough shot with a rifle, and can pick off a crow or two at long range, the birds keep away from a field sc protected. Even if not hit, they seem to realize that it is dan- gerous ground Any birds killed should be hung up in the fleld. Crows are uot always injurious. It is a well known fact that at times they are of service In eating grubs and cut-worms turned up by the plow.

For wire cuts or open sores of any kind there is no better remedy than the “white lotion” which veterinarians use. It is made of about one ounce each of sugar of lead and sulphate of zinc dissolved in a pint of water. This is also good for cut fingers or any such injuries in man. g ofe e ofe do ol ofe ake o ol ofe o ok oo ofe oo e ol e e K3 * * < + * < L |BIG OCEAN LINER STILL HELD FAST Eiforts to Free Prinzess Irene Proves Futile: (SISTER SHIP AT HER SIDE Work of Transferring the Seventeen "Hundred Passengers Has Begun in Surf Boats, With Lifesavers Stand- ing By—No Excitement Among the Passengers at Any Time Since the Vessel Went Aground.

This was indicated by a wireless message from the Prinz Frederich Wil- helm, sent as the former was steaming out, and which was picked up here. The Prinz Frederich Wilhelm offi- cers in the message inquired if the Irene would send her passengers off in her own boats. It also asked the Irene's officers to have each passenger bring his supper food with him and to give all the passengers their noon meal on board. There was not, and is not now, the slightest sign of panic or excitement among the passengers. They have eaten their meals regularly, and have been entertained by band concerts. A Mighty Difference. Brougham used to tell an anecdote about the flight from Waterloo. Na- poleon was greatly depressed. His aid riding beside him thought he might be sorrowing over the loss of so many old comrades at arms and tried to comfort him by saying that Wellington also must have lost many friends. ‘“‘He has not lost the battle,” was the reply.

It is about the same size as the earth, and its density is about the same. The force of gravity upon its surface is only slightly less than that on the earth. The temperature on Venus is probably the same as in our own tropics, and the dense atmos- phere may be of a composition such as enveloped the earth,when in the carboniferous period. As to the ex- istence of intelligent life, the question is still open. If it is ever established that the planet Venus is inhabited it will be less surprising than if the same werk proved conclusively of any other planet, owing to the similarity in| many respects of Venus and the! earth.” | 190 50 AND 216 Minnesota Ave. Farm and Gity Loans3 Insurance and Real Estate William €.
