These men must be supplied with all living essentials us they were during the period ot actual Warfare, It takes money to do thla. In years past both In homos and in offices, Christinas gifts have been given in the form or money. What is a better way. In order to supply the necessary funds to our Government (Prepared by the United Btatea Pepnrt mant of Asrlculture.) Feeding gnrhngo to hogs Is In keep ing with the national movement for the utilization of waste products and (or Increasing the production of pork nd fats, at least during the war. There Is reason to believe, how ever, thnt many of these emer gency enterprises will prove to be iufflelently remunerative to remain (ermanent after the war, especially If ogs are fed on garbage from cities of 10,000 or more, from which, doubtless, the garbage will be disposed of and ptlllzed In this manner. Already this knethod of fesdlng has produced good results, MM tnuny who have entered (he Held probably would not have en gaged In the production of pork under tny other conditions, owing to the for the support of our armies. Instead of giving actual cash, to give Thrift Stamps and War Saving Stamps? In doing this two things are accomp llahed. First, a very acceptable gift is given, which is as good as cash. Second, your Government is suppli ed with funds now needed. To make It a more attractive gift many of the department and station ery stores are selling Xmas cardH with appropriate designs on tteW Small envelopes, in which stamps can lie placed, are attached to these cards The Treasury Department feels confident thnt this suggestion will meet with the same approval and sup port, as have Its other suggestions in regards to the sale Of War Saving Stamps.

So far as can be ascertained In cases In which failure bus been met with the trouble has been mostly due to the fact that hog cholera was allowed to claim a large portion of the animals; In other words, the owners failed to Immunize their stock In a proper man ner. The belief thnt hogs fed on garb age are exposed dully to the danger of cholera Infection Is well founded. There la always the possibility that garbage contains scraps of pork, such as rinds and trimmings from hams and bacon, or products of cholera car casses that have been prepared for .Markets at amall local slaughterfng bouses where no Inspection Is main tained. These pieces of choleraic pork, without doubt, will reproduce the dls ense if consumed In the rnw state by susceptible animals, besides creating a source of Infection which may be re tained on the premises under garbage feeding conditions. The bog raiser who feeds garbage In a limited way only to supplement in part other classes of feed can read ily arrange to cook the garbage thor oughly before feeding and In this way eliminate, to a large degree, the dan ger of cholera infection. If, however, large herds are fed on garbage en tirely,' cooking is not practicable and from the feeder's point of view it is not advisable. Therefore, In all such cases It Is of the utmost Importanct that the animals be Immunized and thus protected from hog cholera; In fact, owners of such enterprises should be sure that hogs are permanently Im mune before they nre placed on such feed. Pigs farrowed from Immune sows have a natural resistance to hog chol t i'ii during their suckling period. When they are about to lose this degree of Immunity, about weaning time, they should be given the simultaneous Inoc ulation (serum and virus). Even with this method of treatment a few in dividuals may become again suscep tible ; therefore the head should be observed closely at all times and treated again if any of the animals show Klgus of Infection. . ssmmm Considering the Income derive! from hogs uud the reasonable rates at which garbage has been obtained, the extra expense of treating the animals must fee viewed a.s part of n business prop osition, such as Insuring against de atruction by Are or against accidents jf any kind ; and feeders of garbage cannot consider their business as safe unless they protect It against all pos sible reverses, of which the most seri ous is bog cholera. v m tmrrso statss v bs Cf Back These Boys With YOUR DOLLARS AU. S. Government War Savings Stamp is as secure as a National Bank Note. Both are backed by the United States Government. About the only difference is that the stamps pay you 4 per cent interest compounded quarterly, on January 1st, 1923. If you are pressed for money at any time, you can cash a War Savings Stamp for its current value at any money-order post office on ten days' notice. War Savings Stamps are convenient and easy investments, no "red tape," and are backed by the entire resources of the people of the United States.

A great many farms that have been cropped year after year are rapidly losing their productiveness, and there la no class of live stock so well adapted, to building up of the soil as sheep. Their droppings are extremely rich and are scattered over the fields In a manner which neither man nor machine can duplicate. Advantages of Sheep. Sheep will live and thrive where a cow would starve to death. They will clean out the weeds In the fences and corners, but If you expect to make money with them they must be given a certain amount of care.
