Declares Wayne County Lost

Heavily By Cholera in 1911.

Education of the farmers has been

farty responsible for the decrease in jlhe number of case of hog cholera in

Wayne county in 1912 and 1913, ac

cording to Dr. R. A. Craig, veterinirian of Purdue university. Wayne 1b classed as one of the lead

ing ten of the ninety counties in which jitatistics were taken, both in the numjber of cases of cholera and in the use jDf Berum for vaccination, j Dr. Craig spoke to a large number jDf farmers at Boston this afternoon, ;that community being the center of :the hog cholera scare during this year.

He presented statistics showing the tremendous losses from hog cholera in ihe state and county, and gave details is to the cause, prevention and cure f the disease. Number Decreases. "While the number decreased, there have been far more than the community can afford," said Dr. Craig. "Union Bounty was stricken heavily this j'ear, nd that is partially the cause of the heavy loss in southern Wayne county, ts the disease was carried across the line. "About ten thousand hogs in Wayne tounty were vaccinated with Purdue lerum and the same number with comBiercial article. This number of vacfcinnations has been made during the last two or three yeans, and the number is steadily increasing. "The nearest correct estimate of the uumber of hogs in Wayne county places it at 35,000 during the first part

lit 1D12. The selling value of these i was about $275,000. During the year

1911 the latest statistics we have, 16,-

j 114 hogs with a market value of $108,-

188 were lost through cholera. This was higher than either the 1912 or 1913 losses, "The latest statistics, which have not yet been published, will show the toss from hog cholera in the state in 1912 to be 562,212 hogs with a market ralue of $3,679,000." Invites Questioning. Dr. Craig invites the farmers to ask guestion and discuss the points in his talks which impress them most or on which they have not received a clear Idea. A list of "don't" was presented to the farmers. There are as follows: Don't allow persons who travel about the neighborhood buying hogs or selling cholera remedies to walk through four hog yard. Don't allow stock or breeding hogs

Formation of a domestic science auxiliary to the Columbia Farmers association of residents of the community of the No. 6 school house on the Middleborough pike, is the desire expressed by women, following a domestic science talk last night by Mrs. A. D. Cobb, wife of the county argicultural agent. The meeting was attended by a large number of women. Mrs. Cobb treated the subject of domestic science in a general manner.

fields that receive the drainage from adjoining farms. Don't allow stock or breeding hags that you have purchased to mix with your herd until they have been quarantined three weeks. Don't harbor pigeons or a dog that is in the habit of visiting neighboring farms. Don't fail to quarantine your hogs if cholera breaks out among them. Don't fail to burn th dead hogs. Don't waste you time and money in buying and feeding so-called hog cholera cure and preventives. Dr. Craig and County Agent Cobb will be in Greensfork tonight. Mr. Cobb has received word that a large number of farmers in that community will attend the meeting. Meetings will be held tomorrow morning in Centerville and tomorrow afternoon south of Milton.

She declared that what is known as domestic science is really home ccon-

iomy or home management.

"Home making is a business, said Mrs. Cobb. "Many women may be good cocks, or good dressmakers and not be able to bring home management down to a business basis. The housewife should know why she must cook a certain food in one way and another article in another. She should be able to dl8tinguih textiles. To be able toV?ntify wool material from matt-rial which isn't all wool is one of the essentials which every woman should have at her command if she .would make a business of her home management." Howarth Makes Promise. Trustee James Howarth said he will equip No. 6 school with a domestic science department to aid the community in the betterment of home management, which will consist of cooking and sewing courses. Following a baritone solo by Charles Miles and a recitation by Miss Kenworthy, Parry Brees, a farmer residing on the Middleborough pike, talked on the fruit industry in Wayne county. He gave a number of common sense ideas in which the other members of the Columbia association were deeply interested. "Fruit trees should be cultivated as often as corn," said Mr. Drees. "Ev

ery farmer should raise a variety of fruits, including the smaller fruits

such as gTapes and currents, which are freer from pestilence than other fruits. Apple King of Fruits.

I "The apple is the king of fruits but i is subject to many pests. Apple trees need attention and especially when they are young. When any kind of fruit trees are set out. the bruises and broke places should be trimmed. If the roots are trimmed, the tops should be trimmed uniformly in order to keep j the working functions of the tree in balance." He also spoke of the methods of combatting fruit tree diseases and : pests. I Supt. Lammot of Middleborough, spoke of the number of boys and girls 1 leaving the farms. He recommended ; that farm influence be brought to bear j upon the children in a way in which ; they will gradually and unconsciously

grow to love farm life. He complimented the school principle of No. 6 for keeping the pictures on the walls restricted to rural scenes. In illustration of the influence of pictures on the minds of children he told of the sons of a friend of his. Three boys of a farmer left home, each to join the navy. The cause was an imposing picture of a battleship which had hung on the walls for years and which had been the subject of admiration constantly on the part of the boys.

As the time draws near for the natural gas to be turned into the City lines we find that there is more or less confusion as to the manner of using natural gas in the artificial gas appliances now in use. To this we say it can be used satisfactorily by reducing the flow of the natural gas by regulating the valves and opening the air supply if necessary fr proper combustion in all gas burning appliances such as ranges, hot plates, Welsbach Lights, etc

If for any reason this adjustment does not give entire satisfaction the Company will have a sufficient corps of men to call and make all proper adjustments. We will make no changes of meters unless we find the meters now in use are not of sufficient capacity and in that event we will make the change without charge to the consumer. Meters will also be installed for new consumers free, as usual. If prospective users of natural gas will call at our office instead of listening to all the misleading statements now being circulated throughout the city, they will be fully informed as to the real facts and conditions and the matter of deposits will be satisfactorily explained to every one. It is absolutely necessary for all prospective users of natural gas to make application in person promptly, as the gas will be turned in Nov. 25th, barring mishap. PLEASE CALL AT OUR OFFICE AT YOUR EARLIEST CONVENIENCE. OFFICE HOURS 8:00 A. M. TO 8:00 P. M
