UEWAltE OF HOG CHOLERA CURBS
Despite the fact that "hog pow
ders" are being advertised in the
state which are claimed to cure hog
cholera, there is no such cure known.
The serum treatment originated by
Drs. Dorset, McBride, and Niles of
the United States Department of
Agriculture has proved to be the on
ly successful means of combating
this disease, according to a bulletin
of the College of Agriculture.
WAYS OF SAVING THE CORN CROP
No one knows whether the greater
part of tho corn crop will mature or
not, but it is probably safe to say
that a considerable percentage will
be damaged to a greater or less de
gree even if frosts do not come until
very late. With such prospects in
view, it is believed at the College of
Agriculture that the making of im
mature corn into silage or fodder
this season will be a highly commen
dable practice. Owing to damage
from hail in certain sections the
making of silage may prove the
more profitable.
SAVED 438 HOGS
nnrlmr the month of Aueust. the
pnuntv agricultural ascent of Madi
son county vaccinated 50-1 hogs for
cholera, and 87 per cent of the num
lived. OftheC04 vaccinated, how
ever, 194 had high temperatures.
In other words, only 3.1 per cent of
those having normal temperatures
died, while 28.3 per cent of those
having high temperatures suscumb
ed to the disease. August was not
regarded as a particularly trouble
some month in the county, and a
comparatively small number were
Vaccinated.
MAY ENTER SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE
AT IB
Tho University School of Agricul
ture at the University Farm an
nounces that beginning with this fall
term the minimum age limit for en
trance will be reduced from 16 to 15
years. This will enable many boys
and girls to enter the School of Ag
riculture directly from the eighth
grado without stopping to spend one
or two years in high school. The
School of Agriculture will open 0&
tober 11. 1915. Its school term is
six and one-half months in length.
The prospects are good for a large
enrollment this year.
DREEDING AN HARLY WEEAT
A now beardod wheat different
from any other kind known to exist
and possibly one that may be of
great economic importance to Ne
braska has been bred at the Agri
cultural Experiment Station of Ne
braska. It is a cross botween Tur
key Red and Big Frame wheats, but
unlike other crosses oi these two va
rieties is very unlikoiits parents in
several resnecta. Altho of not as
good quality as Turkey Red wheat, it
has averaged for the past four years
2i bushels more in yield. It does
not grow as rank as Turkey Red and
does not ordinarily lodge. Because
of its early ripening, it was practi
cally ready for harvest this season
when other wheat was beginning to
rust badly on account or heavy rain
fall. Its earliness is also held to be
somewhat of nn insurance against
hail, by the Department of Experi
mental Agronomy which is conduct
ing the experiment. The new wheat
will be given more extensive testa at
the station and thruout the state,
and if the wheat continnes to be
promising, it is expected to bo of
great importance to the wheat-grow
ing sections oi the less humid por
tions of Nebraska.
FARM RECEIPTS MAY APPEAR SMALL
AND YET HE LARGE
The total receipts for 1914 on farms
typical of a largo part of eastern
Nebraska averaged $2,989 per farm.
Of this total. $874 came from tho
natural yearly increase in live stock,
feed, and crops held for sale at the
close of the year. The increase in
the value of young stock constitutes
about half the annual receipts from
this source. The fact that the cash
receipts are often small discourages
most of those who do not figme
closely on their farm business. One
farmer decided he was not making
anything, bo ho sola out. Tho re
turnB showed that he was getting
ahead faster than he expected. Be
fore he had time to move to town ho
was back to farming. This is an ex
pensive way of taking an inventory.
Total receipts are easily deter
mined when farmers keep an annual
inventory and a record of farm sales.
In connection with the Farm Man
agement Survey Work, the Exten
sion Service will have inventory
blanks, and farm record books avail
able for distribution in time to cover
next year's business. These blanks
are being prepared in harmony with
the ideas of Nebraska farmers who
have met with the greatest success
in keeping practical farm records.
Looking Backward.
Sioux City Journal, Sept. 2, 1895:
Covington was wide open yesterday,
and for the first Sunday since the re
opening of tho pontoon bridge tho
crowd from Sioux City was very
large. Tho town did not seem to
deserve tho wide-spread noteriety it
has gained, ana tne only thing which
occurred to relieve the monotony of
tho afternoon was a quarrel between
a negro man ana woman.

cerned the police and street depart
ments, which are combined. The
battle began after a bill for $175
had been presented by four men who
had been employed by Elmer Mottitt,
police chief and street commissioner,
to do extra work. By motion the
bill was laid on the table. There
upon Commissioner Moflitt remarked
that in the future the councilmen
could crawl out of all the mudholes
in town for all he cared. When ap
pointed to his present position Mof
fitt was instructed to employ addi
tional men if it became necessary.
J. J. Elmers, insurgent leader, told
the mayor that he had not instruct
ed the new commissioner properly.
"I hired him to do the woik," was
the mayor's retort, "while you fel
lows Bimply talk about it." "Yes-,"
chimed in Moflitt, "you can't expect
me to do anything more unless you
put it in writing, pass it as a resolu
tion and enter it on the minutes."
Since the last regular meeting May
or Kloster has called two special
meetings. P. W. Martin, clerk of
the council, sent out the calls and
was present at the town hall on both
occasions, but not enough council
men appeared for a quorum. Last
night, however, Martin presented
his bill for $10. half of it based on a
regular meeting and the other half
on the two special meetings that had
been called. The council refused to
allow the $5 for the two special
meetings. The Johnson Electric Co.
of Omaha, was awarded $315 for
stringing about 2,000 feet of wiring
from the Half-way place to Dakota
City.
