During the past week, hog cholera
was found on the R. A. Messerschmidt
farm northwest of Nacora. Mr. Mes
serschmidt had the disease at fnrrinV

are those born since the first vacci
nation. The necessary measmes
were again taken to stamp out the
disease. Because of several cholera
outbreaks in that neighborhood dur
ing the past few months, it is very
advisable that special attention be
given the pigs, and it might even lie
advisable to vaccinate all pigs ad
joining those farms.

n crisis time was at hand, for the
wet forces are using every power
that they can possibly bring to bear
upon the people in an endeavor to
get the Volstead act so changed as
to permit the sale of light wines and
beer, and if they succeed in this it
will menu in a short time the opon
saloon again. Ninety per cent of
nil liquors sold in the days of the
saloons were light wines and beer,
and if the wet forces can get this
clause inserted it will mean that
beer and wines can lie sold nt nil

want to sell it. Rev High sounds

not to let down in their light against

that wo must never ground our arms

Next Sunday morning the pastor
will preach on the subject, "Sowing

this is his strongest sermon. Come
and hear the sins of the day handled
without gloves, in an uncompromis.

Fly Spray .Mnke.s Milking Easier
The use of some kind of sprny to
keep flies away from the cows will
help to make milking nn easier task
during the hot months. Commercial
sprays under different names and
trade marks can be purchased at
most drug stores, or one can easily
be made up at home. Tho College
of Agriculture recommends tho fol
lowing formula, tho ingredients of
which can lie found at almost all
drug stores: One gallon of fish oil,
two ounces of oil of pino tar. two
ounces of oil of pennyroyal, and one
half pint of kerosene. This mixture
may be used as a spray or put on
with a cloth or brush. A very light
application will do tho work, as it is
the odor that repels the files. By
.spraying tho cowb and their barn
lightly the flies will lie kept away
entirely and the cows allowed to rest
in peace.
