Vaccination Reports of hog cholera have come to us from several parts of Illinois. You should vaccinate your pigs when they are young, about the time they are weaned or 8 weeks old. Don't run the risk that we did last year. It is cheaper to vaccinate them small. Results of Liming The lime that was placed on the fields which were sown to alfalfa in the spring of 192C are now showing wonderful results. At Emil Borne meier's west of Elmwood this lime plot was cut and compared with the unlimed. It out yielded the unlimed plot three times as much, and show ed no winter killing, while the un limed plots winter killed 50 per cent or more. The same thing is true of the fields of Carl Day. of "Weeping Water. The plots where manure was spread before seeding alfalfa, show the same results, practically no winter killing. After talking with several farmers they say that they would not have enough manure to cover the piece which they woMld sow to alfalfa, because it should be spread at the rate of about six to ten tons per acre. The lime was put ou at the rate of one ton per acre. Nebraska No. 60 Wheat This is the leading wheat in Ne braska and Emil Bornemeier of Elm wood has a field of 3 0 acres. It looks exceedingly fine.

Davis r torm LOOtlS Burlington In stalls Large Size Scales in Yards One of the Largest Scales on the Western Part of System Just Being Installed. From "Wednesday's Daily The Burlington railroad is com pleting the installing in the upper yards here one of the largest type scales used for weighing cars that is in use on the system and in a very short time the scales will bo ready to operate in weighing loads that may be handled over this great line of railroad. The new scales are located in the north yards some 200 yards north of the passenger station and in a very suitable place for handling a great many cars that was not possible at tho old scale in the south yards save by blocking the main line of t-he road at times with the cars. Tho new scales are manufactured by the Fairbanks company and are known as type "S" 150 ton scales and the length of the scales cover some fifty feet. The scales are a splendid type and the work of installing them has been no small job to the force of work men that were called on the job as there is a heavy and strong concrete pit prepared for the scales proper three foot concrete piers being pre pared for the placing of the main por tion of the scales with the sides and ends of the scales being strong and of heavily re-enforceel concrete, while in the concrete floor of the rcales there are drains that will carry any surface water off and drain to the east into the bottom land. Large ven tilators at the ends of the scales will aid in keeping the scales dry. The center beam of the new scales is almost as heavy as the entire old scale and the balancing beam is so delicately adjusted that it will re fpond to the object that is being weighed in a second and leaves a printed record of the weight of the car and contents. The beams in the scales are of tho heaviest steel and adjusted to give perfect weight. Adjoining the scales proper is the small building that will hold the ad justing portion of the scale and where the printed record of the weight will be made by the scales. The scale and its equipment will cost in the neighborhood of $10,000 and will be one of three that will be placed on tho system in the next year, one at Dos Moines and later at Hast ings. Nebraska. The scales are well situated for the purpose of car weighing and will permit from fifteen to twenty cars to be handled at a time by the local switching crew which was not pos sible with the limited track space of the old scale and which required the leaving open of switches when weigh ing cars that they might be kicked onto the main line tracks in order to handle any number of them.
