The bulletin requests that wide public ity be given this fact, as it will be the last opportunity for former service men to get their names in for vocational training. The deficiency bill of June 16, 1921 set 18 months after passage of the bill as the final date for accepting such ap plications. This does not, however, apply to applications for compensation, which are filed on the same form. Even though a man may not be able to start training at the time of his application, he should file his application in order to be sure that his name is in on time, Applications for training and com pensation may be filed with the home L ice Beotio Red cross. located in the Social Service bureau building on North Eighth street.

The Farm and By William R.

CHOLERA IN PREBLE Hog buyers and shippers in Preble county, especially from the northeast section, have been reporting cases of hog cholera, or something equally alarming, during the past few days. It now seems that the plague is spreading to the south, judging from reports coming in. James Markev. manager of the Preble county live stock shipping com

pany, is our authority for the state-Tlive

ment that "something is killing a lot of hogs in the Eldorado section, but the heaviest losses has been incurred among the pigsj He says that while he has heard of no losses in other parts of Preble county there Is a three mile square area in the northern edge of Preble, and the southern section of Darke county, where some sort of a disease is quite prevalent and which has caused the loss of a number of hogs, mostly young pigs, but some of all ages. This has caused farmers to ship freely, rather than to take chances on their herds falling sick. Another Eldorado man tells of a lot of hogs being brought to Eldorado for shipment last week, among which were found two dead hogs the next mornin at loading time. Prevailing Disease Mr. Markey said on Monday that during September the shipping company had sent out 133,000 pounds of hogr and that they had loaded out four car loads in the last week in October. As to the prevailing disease he is not sure just what it is, but he says: "It has the earmarks of hog cholera, in his opinion. It is intimated by shippers that the losses might have. been heav ier had not a lot of farmers taken alarm and cleaned out their hogs, re gardless of weights. One Preble county veterinarian said that he has been kept very busy in the past few days, having been called to several farms to treat the hogs. He thinks the disease is slowly spreading toward the south, as on'last Saturday he was called by a farmer living south of West Manchester. In this instance the farmer had had sick hogs for several days. F. M. Emmerich,-the man quoted, says that farmers are often too slow in making reports, and that it sometimes happens that neighbors on adjoining farms are not aware of hog cholera near them. He said that he saw a number of 40 to 50 pound pigs in a recent carload shipment made at Eldorado, the seller deciding to take n6 chances by keeping them as feeders. New "Producer" Markets. The co-operatives have added two Producers' Sales associations this month, the first at Buffalo, N. Y., the second at Fort "Worth, Texas. This makes six co-operative live stock selling associations now in action. All the state farm bureaus in tributary territory, to East Buffalo markets are co-operating, which means: New York, Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, or notably the co operative live stock shipping Associations in the four states, all of which are farm bureau organizations. There are but 15 commission firms operating on the East Buffalo market. the largest of which hanlled about came upon a rudely constructed brattice on which was scrawled: "There are 29 miners behind this." But the rescuers pushed on deeper into the mine for men who had not fortified themselves. The gas was strong at this point and they feared that should they break down the barriers the weakened condition of the men would not stand the inrush of the deadly fumes. Find Score of Bodies Other rescuers later found more than a score of bodies huddled together. It is believed that thi3 group was the one behind the brattice. Five times an explosion has occurred in this mine, but the other four did not register a fatality. Damage to the mine Itself was not great, officials announced. They would not issue a statement as to the cause of the explosion but they did say that mine had been examined and reported free of gas just a short time before the explosion. An examination showed that the force of the explosion lifted the fan building from its foundations. It is located 200 feet from the tipple. This structure must be air-tight and for nearly an hour it was not working effectively. Mud was plastered about the cracks hastily and its operations continued. Movable bulkheads were being con structed today. These were attached to the front of mine cars and the rescuers were going deeper into the mine. But they had -no hope that a living miner would be found in the depths now.

Years of patient painstaking effort on the part of a well known Rochester physician has resulted in a prescription that will actually heal piles and absorb them never to return.

the Farmer Sanborn 1,500 carloads last year. The selling force at the start consists of but three members, as follows: Ernest Prentiss, of Buffalo, cattle salesman; P. C. Flourney, of St Joseph, Mo., hogs, ana Joseph Quinn, of South St Paul, calves and sheep. The new concern at Fort Worth is known as the Cattle Raisers and Producers' commission company. It was organized by the Southwestern Cattle Raisers' association, which dates back to 1847, when it was founded to protect cattlemen from thieves. All the stock associations in Texas seems to have taken a hand in the deal, and the state farm bureau was active in framing up the combination in effective form. The first step of the new co-operative was to take over Hamm Bros., the biggest commission operators in Fort Worth. It is evident that the new sales company is likely to do a whaling big business, rijht from the Jump. k-ji Handled 512 Cars. In the last week in October the foor companies operating at Chicago, East St. Louis, Indianapolis and Peon a. handled 512 cars of live stock. Of these East St. Louis ranked second with 167 cars, and Chicago third," with 124 cars. Indianapolis led the proces sion, with 195 cars and Peoria marketed 26 cars for the week, the largest number in that market to-date. While there is no comparison to be made be tween Chicago and Indianapolis as to live stock receipts it will be noted that Indiapapolis led Chicago by 71 cars on the week and the Producers' company also led all the firms at the Indian apolis stockyards. It is interesting to know that the! co-operatives have abolished the membership fee, and it is stated by the American .farm bureau that the membership fees so far collected, will now be refunded. Any producer desiring to ship to these associations, and who will simply ask for a membership card, can now participate in the refund. The growth of these sales associations is very gratifying to farmers. Not only are the six here listed to be counted, but remember there are other co-operatives in action, several of which are older than the committee of 15 itself. Take Sioux City, la., South St. Paul, Omaha, Kansas City and St Joseph, Mo., as examples. All of these points have farmer or stock raiser co operatives in the various stockyards. ' And aside from the Producers are three other farm co-operative concerns doing business at the Chicago and St. Louis yards. Thus the idea has grown. None of these claim to be able to get one dollar a' carload more money thau can the regular commission firms. But they supposedly do give the live stock good care and do rebate a part of the commission's pro-rata, depending on surplus at the end of their fiscal years, after the sinking funds are provided for. As thus far shown the rebates at the nd of 12 months of operation are likely to amount to considerable money, as a total. Corn Exports Heavy When we consider how much corn a three-billion bushel crop represente, then figure our heaviest exports, wo will come to the conclusion that our exports figure but slightly in the price? on the farm, or in our primary markets. It is now figured that our exports of corn for this calendar year will exceed those of any year since 1900, when we shipped a little more than 190,000,000 bushels abroad, as reported by the department of agriculture. So much is said from time to time about the foreign demand for our corn that one would naturally suppose the demand to be much heavier. Culling Test Results.
