(From a Staff Correspondent)
UNCOIJC, Neb., Nov. .-Speclal Tel
egTatn.) According to a census bulletin
made public today there are more hogs
In the state of Nebraska than In all of
the states west of here, with Maryland
thrown In for good measure. The num
ber Is only exceeded by Iowa with 7.527,
1(3, Missouri with 4.429,429 and Illinois and
Indiana with almost the same number.
In other words, there are Just 3,434,93S
head of swine In this state. Iowa has
the largest Total value of swine on
farms, amounting to 170,000,000. Illinois
ranks second with $36,000,000. Nebraska
Is fourth In the list with 23,600,000.
On the face of the returns there was
Sl decrease Jn the number of swine re
ported, being about 7.7 per cent on a to
tal of 68,000,632.
The law of supply and demand Is
working overtime In the hog business.
In spite of the significant decrease shown
In the number of swine, there was a
material Increase In the value of all
wine, amounting to $166,025,000. or 71.S
per cent, the present value being $39S,
000.000. As a necessary result the aver
age value of swine Increased, the change
feeing from .69 to $6.86, which Is S3.17.
r 86.9 per cent. One of the more im
portant reasons for the higher relative
value la the fact that the 1910 report In
cludes a much larger proportion of ma
ture hogs and a smaller proportion of
Wprlng pigs than the census of 1900. The
effect this change would have Is evi
denced by the fact that In 1910 the ma
ture hogs were' valued at $10.02 on an
kverage, while spring pigs were reported
mt $2.06 per animal. There has, however,
keen a general rise In price of swine of
pomparabl ages.

the records of the city health department
chow that every month a report has been
sent to the state board giving the num
ber of the various dlseoses in the city.
Klther the members of that body were
negligent In looking over their reports
or they did not realize In the considera
tion of the reports the Importance of the
epidemic."

Prefers Life of Tar
, to "Rasslin" Cows
"I want to enlist," was the simple state
ment of Herman Miller, a six-foot cow
boy who appeared before Lieutenant
Nathan Post at the navy recruiting sta
tion Thursday morning. After .the phys
ical examination and other preliminaries
were finished and his name was enrolled
upon the navy records the new recruit
startled the recruiting officers by drawl
out that "he was Jest about dead tired
fer sleep." Subsequent Investigation
brought out the fact that Miller had rid
den a diminutive cow pony all the way
from Butte, Monl., to Omsjoj. and that
for the last few nights he has slept In the
saddle.
Miller says he was "rasslln coaws" for
$30 a month and that he was tired of the
Job; that the life of the Jack Tar ap
pealed to him, so he decided he would
enlist. The reason he came to Omaha to
enlist Instead of signing up at the recruit
ing stations he passed while enroute here
was that he wanted to see what kind of
a town Omaha was. He spent a few
hours roaming about the city, attired in
a picturesque sombrero and corduroy
trousers, and then asked to be Immedi
ately transported to wherever he is to be
sent. He was accepted.
The recruiting officers put In a busy
day Wednesday and the early part of
Thursday examining prospective recruits.
Eight young . men . enlisted and of this
number seven were farmer ' boys from
surrounding counties.
