PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY

Bntered at the postoffice, Greenfield, Ind., as •aoond class matter.

NEWTON R. SPENCER, Editor and Proprietor.

If men thought as much of their father, mother, wife and family before they are caught in violating the law, or in other disgraceful conduct, as they do afterwards, they would never be guilty. Their solicitude for their family friends whom they would not grieve for the world, is not very sincere, and no one knows it better than the newspaper man, whom they seek at once "to keep it out of the paper." The newspaper man out of true sympathy for the poor old father or mother, or the devoted wife, or innocent children, readily complies with the request. He is not deceived, however. He knows that the person the guilty party wants to protect is himself. He does not care so much for the feelings of his family friends, or he would not engage in such practices". It is a good thing, perhaps, that the newspaper man does not have to tell all he knows: "the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth." It might really be a good thing for the newspaper man to tell all he knows, but out of sympathy for innocent friends who would suffer— "mum's the word." It is best that it is thus.

STH ABOUT JUNK

There is a Cash Value Fop Every ffc Old Thing.

What becomes of the junk? What do the junk dealers do with the iron, rags, bones and grease which they collect on their rounds of the city?

These questions are becoming as common as the now famous, 'what has become of the pins.' And the answer to these foregoing questions can be found in the shipping slips of any junk leader in this city. Most of the junk from the iron to the rubber goes back to the dealers from which it or similar products first came, according to local dealers, and is there worked up into products of the factory, and sold as new goods.

Anything from wheels for a gocart to the throttle of a threshing machine engine can be found in almost all of our junk shops. Tallow, rubber, iron, paper, brass, copper, cloth and even strings are carefully packed in these establishments and shipped to other cities. The paper, string and cloth to the paper factories, and the rubber to the factories manufacturing boots and the other rubber articles the tallow and grease to soap manufactories. Almost everything in fact, considered useless by the ordinary person is sold for profit by the junk dealer.

Iron, probably the largest item of the junk buying business, is piled in stacks many feet in height in all the city junk yards. Oil and gas pipe, engine parts, wheels, horseshoes, and nails can be found in these almost mountainous stacks. Practically all the iron is shipped back to the makers of iron articles, where it is remelted, mixed with pig iron and worked up into new products.

Paper, bought by the tons yearly, also has its commercial value. The paper used in the daily newspapers is carefully separated from the coarse grain paper which usually accompanies it and is packed and baled separately. When the product reaches the paper factories it is shredded and is remade into paper. Into the pile of newspapers is thrown the string which also is used to make the very best quality of paper. The second grade of refuse after being separated from the newspaper stock is placed with card board and all other articles with paper as one of their component parts, and sent with the newspaper stock to the factories to be made into the second grade and wrapping paper.

Rubber, whether it is taken from the outside of a garden hose, or comes directly from a pair of boots, is eagerly sought for by junk buyers. After reaching the factories, the strictly rubber part is extracted and placed with the stock that is fresh from, the trees. The rubber in this condition, according to the manufacturers, is practically as good as the newly refined variety. Makers of rubber boots are extensive users of the second-hand rubber.

Prices of brass have increased to great extent in the past few years. The utilizing of every available piece of this metal has been the result of this jump. Clock words and other pieces of mechanism containing brass are eagerly sought for by dealers in junk. The fact that brass is an alloy of copper and zinc makes

the latter two metals in great demand. Articles representing zinc, which are in evidence at the junk yards, are tea-kettles and plates for washboards. Copper wire probably is the most representative article whose main component is copper to be found in the metal stacks in local yards.

Fertilizer in large quantities is manufactured from the bones collected. The slaughter houses are the main source of supply. A good supply is procured from other sources. The skeleton of the animals are placed in huge grinders and ground to a powder. The bone is also used in its ground state for the winter forcing of hens for egg laying.

Soap is the article into which the greater part of the tallow bought by junk dealers in manufactured. Several large factories are located at Wabash, Ft. Wayne and Indianapolis. A high price is offered by these manufacturers for the tallow.

The motto of junk dealers over the country is "don't waste a thing." It is from saving discarded articles considered practically worthless by others that the main source of the junk dealers' profit comes. And from the appearance of the articles and the methods used by manufactories to work them into new articles the dealers live up to their trade, saving in every way.

Results of Work Done By Purdue University Station—How the Serum Should Be Used.

H. H. Madaus, assistant in veterinary laboratory at Purdue University, has issued the following bulletin on "Anti-Hog Cholera Serum." "Anti-hog cholera serum has been produced at the Purdue Experiment Station for the past three years. About 50,000 hogs have been vaccinated and treated. The results of this work have been highly satisfactory. Reports sent to this station by farmers who have used serum on their hogs show that the average loss in the infected herds treated was 9.5 per cent., and following the vaccination of the healthy herds in these infected localities, 2.25 per cent. "In neighborhoods where the hog cholera infection is present, all the herds in the near vicinity or on adjoining farms to the cholera herds should be vaccinated. This precaution, if taken, would prevent the spread of the disease and result in the saving of the exposed herds. Anti-hog cholera serum is chiefly a preventive agent. Because of the losses that sometimes occur in the badly infected herds that are treated and the large doses required, we refuse to furnish serum for the treatment of such herds. "As practically all of the vaccination work is done in cholera infected localities and exposed herds, it is very necessary to determine whether the exposed hogs are infected before giving them virulent cholera blood. In hog cholera, the animal is feverish several days before it stops eating or manifests marked symptoms of disease. For this reason the body temperatures of all hogs should be taken before injecting the virulent blood. If the animal has a body temperature of 104 degrees or more, serum alone in an increased dose should be given. Virulent blood should not be given when fever is present, whether it be from hog cholera or any other cause. Failure to practice the above precaution has resulted in heavy loss in a number of herds where serum has been used. "The most desirable size at which to vaccinate hogs is when they weigh from 40 to GO pounds. At this size the dose of serum is comparatively small and the young hogs can be easily handled and rendered permanently immune. In infected localities it is sometimes necessary to vaccinate small pigs. This is frequently practiced, but it may be necessary to re-vaccinate them within a few months, as the immunity is not permanent. "It is essential that the herd be given good care during and after vaccination and treatment. Hypodermic syringes appropriate for the work should be used and these be carefully cleaned and disinfected before using. The inner sides of the thighs where the injections are made should be w7ashed and disinfected. After vaccination the hogs should be kept out of dirty pens, manure piles and muddy wallows, in order to prevent infection of the small wound made by the needle. The herd should be given clean, dry pens, free from dust and well bedded, and fed a light ration for a few days following the vaccination. When the abscesses form, they should receive the necessary treatment. Badly infected herds should not be treated with serum. If the infection is recent, serum may be used, but in addition the herd should receive proper treatment and care. "It is impossible for this station to produce sufficient serum to fill the orders received. Requisition blanks are furnished the veterinarians, and orders for serum are made through them. It is necessary to charge for the serum and virulent blood, as this line of work receives no state support. The average cost of vaccinating hogs has been about 60 cents per head."

Mrs. George Kline and daughter, Madge, of Eaton, Ohio, are guests of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Scott for a few days.
