Love o all Charles Wykoff SANITATION IN THE HOG LOT Important as Preventive of Cholera and Other Diseases Cleanliness Is Railed Upon. (Prepared by the United (katea Depart ment of Agriculture.) The prenteat drawbacks to the hog industry that breeders In this country have to contend with are the logics through hog cholera, tuberculoma, and the Infestation of the animal, especial ly young pigs, by parasites. Were it not for the fecundity of awlne their profitable production In the presence of these serious dixeases would be out of the question. In the following re marks on sanitation no attempt la made to go Into the details of the dis eases affecting hogs or their treatment. The object Is merely to call attention to the simple measures which may be used by any farmer to avoid, to a large extent, the declmatton of his herd by epizootics. Cleanliness and rational methods of management are relied up on by thousands of farmers to keep their herds In health and vigor. They are the marks of the good farmer and successful hog breeder. Hog cholera and swine plague, both highly fatal diseases characterized by fever and heavy mortality, are so very similar that the breeder may regard them as Identical ao far as his practi cal, management of the herd is con cerned. .

I havea ot only Interviewed the com mittee, but the church aUlarge ns I wus able to ?et In touch with themt not only here; but in other pastor ates as well. Hev. T. S. Young of Denver has this to aay. "Vor live years of the seven years that Dro. Iayton Berved on the Board of City Missions I was alao a member and we two were al so members of the Kxecutlve Doard and ant well acquainted with his work lie wus always on the job, is a fine preachei and an untiring worker did the work of two uncomplainingly." For Mr a. Laytou he has this to say: "In Mrs. Lay ton any church will have a woman far and away above the average from every standpoint." A former member of the Church at Pueblo Colo, where brother Laytou was pastor, has this to say: "Have known Urotuer Layxou for eighteen years, have been a member of two churches where he was paator and can say he is a man of stiong spirit uality, long suflering and self sacri ficing, have never met his equal, is a tireless worker and a man that can always be relied upon. As a Bible student he cannot be excelled." These statements can be moat heat li ly endorsed by this church. i Knowing the labors ot Brother and Sister Laytou here. And in ac cord with the beat Information that can be gained here from -this church, which coincide with the other pastor ates, your committee respectively submit the following resolutions. RESOLVED That .the First Bap tist Church of Alliance, Nebraska do hereby express In a public way our kindly feeling aud our high esteem of our Brother and Sister Layton, and that our best wishes and our prayers goes with them In their new held of labor. Having been with us three and a fourth years the attachment between pastor and people has grown strong er each day. Sincerely trusting that this testimony may be the means of furthering the cause of the Master, this committee take this opportunity ot publicly making known what they have seen and known concerning the labors of Brother and Stater Layton with us. Brother Layton is an able speaker one who knows and loves the gospel truths and has the courage to pro claim them boldly, one whose stand ing is on the solid foundation of the Gospel of Christ Our Lord. i Ills kiud and sympathetic nature endeared him-to his people and the coiuunity at large. Ills great work upon the frontier as a pastor on the front and as a colportler is known throughout our Denomination as a work few men could have done. Hondicapped aa he was by poor health having to leave hla eastern home for the Hockey Mountain re gion, yet his labors have been most wonderfully blessed by the Master. RESOLVED That a copy of these resolutions be aent Brother and Sis ter Layton and the same be printed in the papers of the city ot Alliance.

However, annltnry preventive methods which nre found beneficial with one of these diseases will prove . equally enlcacious vlth the other. There are a few fundamental facts which the breeder must remember If he Is io ovoid losses through hg chol- era or sw ine plague. The tlrst Is thai they are apeciflc diseases caused by germs, and the contagion cannot be spread from one animal to another or from one herd to nnother except through the agency of these minute or ganisms. They may be carried In a multitude of ways by the hogs them selves, on the clothing of persons, on vehicles. In feed, by birds, dogs, and other animals, or by streams. The breeding or feed of a hog cannot cause either-disease, although bad methods may so weaken the constitution and vi tality that the animal becomes more ausceptlble to them than would other wise he the case. Fince these diseases can only arise from the presence of their specific causative agents, It can readily be seen that dentltlton and the presence of supernumerary teeth or black tusks cannot, as has been sug gested by many, play any part in their development A second fact to be borne In mind Is that diseases caused by germs may be best prevented or con trolled by thorough disinfection and scrupulous cleanliness. Arrangements have been complet ed by the University Department of Plant Pathology to carry on experi mental work on potato seed treat ments in cooperation with some of the largest'potato growers of wes tern Nebraska. Seed treatments have long been used 'for the prevention I and control of such diseases as scab, I blackleg, and stem rot. In the new series of experiments which will be started In May at Chadron an 'at tempt will be made to find the ehort efrt simplest and most effective metn od of controlling these diseases un der western Nebraska conditions. The treatment at present recommend ed is as foltows: Soak all seed for 30 minutes (before catting) in a solu tion of 4 ounces corrosive sublimate In 30 gallons of water. This amount of solution will treat 30 bushels of potatoes. Corrosive sublimate should be used only in wooden cont.iners. It Is a violent poison, and potatoes treated In It should not be eaten or fed to stock. V GIVING LAMB A GOOD START Ewe's Flanks and Udder Should B Sheared to Prevent Wool Getting Into Lamb's Eye. . Before the lamb la given the teat the ewe's flanks and udder should b sheared. If this la not done the lamb is likely to Injure' Its eyes with the wool or perhaps get the wool in its mouth and. then refuse to take the teat Shepherds do not all agree as to the best time to do this. But It will gen erally be found best to wait till the ewe drops her lamb, but before she recovers strength to resist the shear Ing. Care U always necessary not to cut the adder or serious Injury may result IMPROVE QUALITY OF STOCK Difference In Expense of Keeping Scrubs and Good Producers Is Not Very Largo. Better breeding stock must be kept If we are to Improve the quality of our farm animals. There Is much dif ference in the price ot a fine draft horse as compared to a scrub pony; the value of the five-gallon cow when compared to an animal that produce! but one gallon Is striking, and yet the difference is the cost of keeping the scrubs and the good producers U not (reat.
