Sunlight is the world's champion disinfectant.
It's on the job most of the time and it's just as
necessary for the sleeping quarters of the hog as
it is for bedrooms in the house.
r
Therefore, in planning-
vide plenty of windows. See that every nook and ccriicr
fjets it? share of this reliable disinfectant. In this way. you
will al;o make sure of goo,d ventilation.
Build a substantial hog house, for the hog needs pro
tection more than any other animal on the farm. Make
tui j of ! ,od drainage and cleanliness.
We stand ready to give you any advice on the question
of material. And our advice is just like the sunlight
it's free.

The Stat 3 Fire Inspector. C. It.

Again in the same issue of our

reckless shooting, this time still more
serious. Just shortly after dinner
today as Mrs. Charley Cheery was
at work on the back porch at their
home in Rector's addition a stray
bullet struck her on the head inflict
ing a scalp wound and nearly knock

seems that more than just newspaper
