Congressman Evans in commenting
upon the article In question, stated
that he thought the article unfair to
the "Committee of Seventeen," tho
American Farm Bureau Federatior
and to Agriculture. The article,
while conceeding the present distress
of the agricultural interests, suggests
a course that permits labor, capital,
mercantile, manufacturing and other
interests to continue their organiza
tion and allows the agricultural in
terests to use only moral suasion to
secure remuneration for Its products.

Spring litters will soon be found
on every farm whore swino raising is
a part of the income, as it is in the
corn belt. Tho number of pigs 'to
be farrowed will be somewhat small
this year because of the limited nuni
her of sows bred. For this reason,
it behooves each hog raiser to take
the best possible care in starting his
now crop. This should begin befcro

ly cleaning and disinfecting the far
rowing pens and placing a small
amount of clean straw for nonting.
Large amounts of bedding makes it
ihaid for thu young porkers to move
'around and gives thu mother a chance
o make a hole in which many pigs
ire killed by being laid upon.
Just before she farrows thu sow's
udder should be washed with soap
nd water and a siinall amount of
some good disinfectant. If weather

litter should be removed from the

Tnbciciilosls In Poultry
Becauso the older birds furnish
the greatest number of tuberculosis
oases, tho flock may woll bo kept
free of those two years old or older,
snys extension bulletin 03 of the
college of agriculture, "Tuberculosis
in poultry." The elimination of tho
older birds is always a good practico
and will undoubtedly help to Vetar.l
tho spread of tuberculosis. Sanita
tion is also an important considera
tion in thu prevention of this dis
ease. Cleanliness of pens, houses,
eating and drinking uionsils, woll
lighted and ventilated houses, havu
an excellent influence on tho general
huidtli of tho Hock as well as on tho
resistance of thu birds to Infection.
Overcrowding should bo especially
avoided, boeause should an infected
bird bo present the intimate contact
with many birds In close injiirtera is
the best possiblu faclor for tho rap
id spread of the disease.
