Next week Is uleiin-up Week. Al
ready tho city is nearly clean and by
next week there ought not to be u
single yard, street or alley that is not
fully up to tho standard. Remember
that the city will send wagons to col
lect all refuse that is conveniently
placed in the strocts or alloys. Do it
now.
Mr. H. Peters of (initio Rock has
published a booklet on tho early his
tory of Webster county which Rive1
authentic records of tho early days
iind is interesting to old and young
alike. Mr. Peters says in his Intro
dilution that he was impelled to write
this book because he l asked so many
times to relate early day experiences.
Tho book is Illustrated with scenes of
pioneer days and Is easily worth the
modest ptice asked which is thirtyllve
cents. It is printed by thcliuido Hock
Signal antl is well piinted and taste
fully arranged. This book should be
in every homo in the county.
It has been estimated that two thous
and dollars a mouth goes out of this
post olllco to various mail order houses
every month in the year. This means
about one hundred dollars a day.
This money never comes back. If all
the residents of this community did all
their trading with the nntil order
houses we would soon be a town of two
or three hundred. City property and
farm propel ty would greatly decrease
in valuo. A f:u m that is located near
h dead town does not bring very much
on the market. Tint town rins down,
the fin m inns down and then wo won
der why thu children aie drawn to the
city. The way for any community to
prosper is fur that community to do
all its trading within itself. This is
the true theory of development. You

Must Vaccinate Hogs
Pigs from Immune sows are not al
ways fieo from tho liability of having
choleia, nccoidllig to the depm tinenl
of animal pathology at I ho University
Farm. Some litters may lo fun owed
in infected pelts and go past weaning
time without becoming infected, while
others get cholera within two or three
weeks after farrowing. Tho pigs
should be closely watched and If any
show signs of cholera they should be
given serum alono. This will usually
carry them well past weaning time
when they can be given the aim ultimo
oils treatment. If tho herd seems to
bo extraordinarily susceptible to
cholera, however, it will be necessary
to give the serum alone more than
once In order to cany them several
weeks past weaning.
Pigs given the simultaneous treat
tuent soon after weaning sometimes
lose this protection within a few
months To acquire a long tlmo im
munity, pigs should weigh nt least
no or (it) pounds at tho time or receiv
ing the simultaneous treatment At
this weight the immunity usually lasts
the ordinary lifetime of tho hog, altho
In sotno instances hogs that have
proved positively Immune at 1-5 pounds
havo later developed cholera.
Kill Gophers Now
Gophers aro just beginning to work
In your alfalfa tlcH. Hero aro some
ways to get rid of them. The roturns
from a little labor expended now will
pay big returns.
Select potatoes about the slzo of
Kiigllsh walnuts; insert an open ended
(pill I about two-thirds of the way thru
the potato, half till the cavity in tho
potato (made by the quill) with strych
nine; plug the balance of the hole with
potato, place the medicated potatoes
iu u basket or pail, allowing thorn four
or live hours to saturate before using.
Take a sharp end gate wagon rod nnd
spado and these potatoes out to tho
Held to bo treated. Uy probing with
the end gate rod into tho ground be
tween the gopher hills, tho iiuiaways
are easily located. When located, care
fully uncover the runway, drop iu a
couple of the potatoes, cover with Utter
and soil so that the dirt does not till
the original runway and that no light
penetrates Treat each colony in the
samtt manner, and the field will be
effectually cleared of the pests. (Note:
Strychnine s inked raisins can be
substituted for potatoes.
