The New Dairy Regulations The proposed dairy ordinance, which is now so exercising our councilmen, has been described as "drastic" in the extreme and certain to boost the price of milk. Dairymen and their supporters have given us lurid prophecies of milk at anywhere from ten cents to four dollars a quart. All this, of course, is the effervescence of excitement. The ordinance is not at all drastic in comparison with the regulations in other cities which have undertaken a really thorough control of the business. Not only are some of our own dairymen now carrying out the most "drastic" provisions of the proposed ordinance and selling at the regular price, but dairymen in other cities have found it not only possible, but profitable to comply with the demands of sanitation and still sell their milk at eight cents. Dr. Gillie, who was himself a dairyman for many years and who has been Fort Wayne's dairy inspector for six years, testified that Fort Wayne dairymen are conforming to more rigid requirements than are being asked of our own, yet find it profitable to sell at the old price. In fact, as he said, they would all refuse to return to their former methods. As for the threat made by a few dairymen to go out of business and so bring on a milk famine, that is the old bluff used in every town to frighten off the efforts to protect the public health. It was the bluff used at Fort Wayne, at Dayton, at Los Angeles, and in almost every other city where a demand has been made that milk be de
livered to the consumer free from disease producing germs. It is a bluff and nothing else. Men of good business judgment are investing in dairies to supply cities demanding far more rigid exactions than our own and they would likewise invest here.
cent corn, thirty par cent shorts and ten per cent oil meal. Tankage and oil meal can be substituted by skim milk, and I believe that Is even better for a balance ration. Alfalfa Good Food. "Another popular winter feed which is excellent is good, bright second or third cutting alfalfa. This with the balanced ration will result in larger litters, larger pigs and more strength and vigor. At farrowing time It is highly essential that the sow be in good health. Keep active, vigorous brood sows which are good breeders, good feeders and have good motherly dispositions. "Pigs Bhould be eating well before weaning, and plenty of good pasture., shade, exercise and sanitary surroundings should be provided. More attention should be given to good forage. I have found that in this county this is too often neglected to produce good results. Alfalfa pasture, red clover and rape or a mixture of oats or Canada field peas serve the best. In the general system here, I have found that this is one of the big things about hog raising that the farmers of Wayne county really need to learn." Mr. Schwab said he has found that about half the men who handle hogs are really hog Jobers, who buy from breeders and fatten to pass on to others. This, he said, is a good thing for the county. The Jones & Pike farm was call a "home missionary," because, through it, good strain hogs are being introduced extensively in the county, instead of being shipped away for foreign trade.
SCHWAB TEACHES FARMERS
10 RAISE GOOD HOGS
The Indiana Baby Book "Every child has the inalienable right to be born free from disease, free from deformity, and with pure blood in its veins and arteries." This is the ideal for Indiana's children as cherished by our State Board of Health. To help Hoosier mothers attain to this ideal, the board, under the direction of Dr. J. N. Hurty, its hard-working executive head, prepared the "Indiana Mothers' Baby Book," a little volume compact with the best possible advice on the care of children. Part One is devoted to the life of the child during that wonderful and mysterious period before birth and to the care of both child and mother at birth. These pages are brief and simply written, but their faithful study by the women about to be mothers would save the life of many a babe awaiting the adventure of birth. .Part Two, which comprises the bulk of the volume, is composed of pithy directions for the care of the babe from birth on, its food, its clothing, its diseases, its teething, its play, etc. These pages of golden advice contain what the most learned authorities have agreed on, but are set forth in such language as the most unlearned can understand. This little volume of eighty pages is bound tastefully in blue cloth and is well illustrated. It could easily self at seventy-five cents on the market, but the State Board of Health has none for sale. The books have already been paid for by the state and are given to first mothers for the asking. At last the child has c.omnelled recognition

One resident of North Fifteenth street lost even three-weeks-old chickens last Saturday night and no trace has been found of the men who did the work.
MAKE HANDLEY GIFT Cambridge City Odd Fellows Praise Work.
About seventy-five members of the Oriental Encampment of Odd Fellows here, including the First degree team, went to Cambridge City last night in a special car and gave the First degree to five candidates in Hormah Encampment. Lawrence Handley was presented with a silver toilet set from
the Cambridge Encampment as a taken of the appreciation of helpful suggestions he made. After the degree work a chicken dinner was served the Richmond visitors and members of the Cambridge City Encampment. Mr. Handley suggested the county meetings in which the varieus encampments entertained the other encampments. This suggestion proved so beneficial to all that the Cambridge City lodge marked its appreciation with the tt. In presenting it the toastmaster said that not only have encampments been, helped, but subordinate lodges have been given new life.
Dcn't Doc;
Have Courage. If there is one thing more than another that will cause discouragement it is indigestion, but you should bear in mind that hundreds have been cured, permanently cured, and at very small expense. Mrs. E. Foster, Lima, Ohio, writes: "I was troubled for a year or more with indigestion. Chamberlain's Tablets afforded the first real relief I obtained, and by taking two bottles of them my whole system was put into a healthy condition." For sale by all dealers. (Advertisement)

Only eleven farmers attended thei 8. The younger the animal the more hog raising educational meting held at economical the gain.
Cambridge City, Wednesday, at which
J. W. Schwab, field agent, from the department of animal husbandry of Indiana, and Chester F. Starr, a Missouri hog rasing expert, spoke on breeding hogs, with the idea of raising the standard in the county. The prospects of better hogs and more of them, less disease, less expense, more profit and the general betterment of conditions in Wayne county are excellent, the men stated, but there are many of the present methods which must be corrected. Ten Commandments. A summary of the ten chief points, the essentials of successful hog raising, with which Mr. Schwab completed his address last night are: 1. Love your stock and your stock will love you. 2. Select the breed which will best meet your conditions. 3. Keep only pure-bred stock. 4. Mature stock will yield larger, healthier and more vigorous pigs. 5. Feed a balanced ration. t;. Good pasture and forage crops produce more economical gains and healthier hogs. 7. Give the brood sow plenty of exercise.
9. Provide comfortable quarters. 10. Prevent disease and parasites by sanitary conditions. Mr. Schwab first pointed out that the decrease of hogs in Indiana in two years amounted to more than half a million. In 1911 there were 4,156,000 hogs in the state; 1912 there were 4,030,000; in 1913 only 3,709,000. He then showed the farmers how to increase the number of hogs economically, and with the idea of making the strain healthier. Clean Quarters Essential. "Of the essential points in hog raising, the quarters can not be too much emphasized,' he said. "First, a practical hog house is needed. There is no fixed rule for hog houses, because animals can not be raised by fixed rules. The site, the drainage, the sanitary flooring, the light and ventilation, a convenient arrangement of pens, door, troughs, feeding floors and the whole to be built as cheaply as is consistent with the surroundings, are the points the successful hog raiser pays especial attention to. "Breeders should be careful to have good, motherly sows. Attention should be paid that they are not too fat, are gaining in weight and are improving in
