FarmersTo
Improve Hogs
So closely associated are the two
Counties, Union and Wallowa, with,
their problems almost universally
alike, the following story given out
by county agricultural agent, N. C.
Donaldson of Wallowa county will
have much Interest for farmer folks
of the Grande Ronde valley.
That there will be fewer runta
and less unthriftlness In the Wal-
; Iowa county 1031 pig crop Is indl
! cated from the use which local
ranchers are making of the swine
: sanitation program recommended
in the series of February meetings,
; reports County Agent Donaldson,
i Several fanners havo constucted
portable farrowing houses and are
. completely following the program
, which will effectively control round
i worms. It Is round worm infection
t found around all old farrowing pens
l which is responsible for a high per
centage oi tne runts zounu in pig
litters.
Among ranchers following this
system are Gale Crow. Fred Hlmel
wright In the Hurricane Creek dis
trict. Freedenbcrg Brothers. Dud
ley Peal and Lawrence Pratt in the
Proirie Creek section.
Freedenbcrg Brothers have fol
lowed this swine sanitation pro
gram for several years. Last year
they report that the only runts
which they had In their pig Utters
were from sows which had not been
thoroughly scrubbed in order to dis
pose of the round worm eggs prior
to farrowing.
Numerous ranchers arc building
portable farrowing houses which
makes it possible to moro easily
carry out the program. The pro
gram calls for a thorough scrub
bing with boiling water and lye of
tho farrowing house unless a new
one is used, and a thorough bath
for the sow before farrowing with
warm water and soap In order to
remove, the round worm cgKS from
legs and body. Tho sow and pigs
are then hauled to clean pasture
within ten days after farrowing to
avoid danger of Infestation. Pigs
are then kept away from old lots
and other Infested places until they
are four months old.
This swine sanitation program is
one of the major projects being cm
ph&s&ed by County Agent Donald
son this year. The aim is to pro
duco pork at & lower cost, thus In- I
creasing the profit and have the pigs
ready for market a month earlier.

COVE HILL BILLY
DISSERTATES ON
GOVERNMENT, ETC.
Much of the material used in writ
ing my views on "Government" is
taken from, the many observations
Jotted down from time to time for
more than forty years. The conclu
sions at which I have so far arrived
touch the subject from an altogeth
er different angle than the many
ideas I havo had the good fortune
to read and hear. My humble posi
tion in life as a Hill Billy, in most
Instances would stop my entering
into such a profound discussion
It would at least perhaps make mo
apologise to my superiors for my so
apparent temerity. But I have no
apology to make. I .write these, my
own conclusive Ideas of today not
set ideas for tomorrov I may learn
better for two reasons. The one and
foremost Is that: the All Mind, the
source of all intelligence which
focuses in any other man's brain,
focuses In my own. I have tho same
apparatus the same mcphaiusm
tho same Inalienable right to receive
or reject wisdom. It is up to me to
know or not to know, and with Wil
liam Ernest Henley, I say;
"It matters not how strait tho gate,
How charged with, punishments the
- scroll,
I am the master of my fate;
I am the captain of my soul."
The other reason Is that tho onglc
taken is a most interesting one. And
I am sure that all will read with
somo satisfaction my views on "Gov
ernment." As all matter pertaining to such
question of importance is invariably
moro or less ambiguous hard to ar
range In a clear and concise manner,
please bear In mind that the text
carries these fundamental points:
The word' "government' is im
mensely broad in its own sense. In
man, it means tho self governing
affairs of each individual. It means
tho governing of the family by the
family. It means the governing of
a community of families by tho com
munity. It means the governing of
a countv'of communities by the coun
ty. It means the governing of a
sluto of counties by the state. Jt
moans tho governing Of a nation to
States by the - nation. It moans the
govorning or a world of nations by
the world's international rules. Be
yond man's domain,, it means the
governing of the whole universe or
worlds planets, stars, suns and
moons with oil there is and ever
will be by the universal law. This
law is recognized best as the one
natural law and the law of God.
With this you oan. readily under
stand that all must pay allegiance to
tho hlghesfsteps in the order given
until all must conform themselves in
obeisance to the natural law and the
law of God. Understand alsp that in
reality there is no toleration what
ever, all must pay the penalty of
transgressing any part or all of the
superior law. Then, remember that
my observations of man's Ideas of
"government" are compared and con
trasted .with those natural elements
and things governed by that superior
natural law of God where man has
not altogether hampered its progres
sion. And don't forget this point:
everywhere In post records and his
tories where I find a people emigrat
ing, whether It Is from on overruled
and despotic country, or simply for an
adventurous desire, when in their
now country and practically with no
other law than the natural law gov
erning. I find a people which soon
conform themselves to their new sur
roundings end materially, morally
and spiritually advance to greater
heights of happiness and contentment
for the Individuals, homes and fam
ilies in general. And I find that as
soon as a so-called "government" Is
set up. then begins tho tearing down
of thoso realistic older Ideas of home
making and in its Etead the nevfr
Idealistic ideas of wealth and power
soon makes a people entirely discon
tented and unhappy. 1
One moro point I want to Impress
upon your mind Is that of all tho
groups, tribes or clans of mankind
that took Belf possession or a new
coimtry, I find none that can come
up to the standards or the so well
governed families and as a whole,
the early immigrants of the West.
I Just love to 'read about or to hear
old timers tell of the doings of these
old pioneers, especially those before
1870. I mean their morals their
spirit of human fellowship. I would
not perhaps relish their physical
struggling with their crude imple
ments and manner of working yet
I fancy that if we wero back In those
days wo could and would do tho
same and they would also do tho
came as we are now doing if with us
today; but I love and want to live
their spirit of humanity In other
words I want to have the heart and
conscience of an Ezra Meeker, when
he was driving an ox team and I am
now driving an automobile.
It was In 1862 that the estnblfrthcd
Immigrants along the Old Oregon
Trails began to send away for locks
to lock their doors. That tells me
that a new spirit was getting in the
country. But previous to that time,
no other group of people can give
mo a better lesson by their almost
self governing method, following as
near as could be that same natural
law which gives that instinctive pow
er to all natural things in so well
living.
Now that you have the subject in
mind with the few points or keys to
the spirit of its text. I want to take
you on a little Journey to where I
found tho material to write this
"government." And on the way I
will tell you why 1 wrote it.
First of all I want you to under
stand that I am not mad. soro or have
a great kick coming at tho present
conditions of this country, but I am
possessed with the spirit, hnt it
ought to be better. I am ono of
those that today is never good
enough I want a better tomorrow,
although I am contented of today I ,
am not yet satisfied. A satisfied
person is a dead nonetlty. Second, i
I am forever searching high and low i
for the Pause of what Is today. w I

makes me a regular question mark.
Observation -without questioning Is
a dead issue. Third, whatever I have
found in my observations I must tell
them to others, so that they may
clean what Is Rood, thereby help
me to live better collectively, and tell
mo where I am wrong, which win
satisfy my questioning mind. ' To
know things and Keep tnem untoia is
also like being dead, "for a dead man

am writing this and will continue
to write until I can't tell "no tale."
Now then on to this journey we
will proceed where I made observa
tions at every place and of every
uersori and things worth while ever
since I can remember. Prom Jack

My grandfather was a learned man

six languages. Although not a wealthy
man, and somewhat humble In his
everyday life I havo here a history
of Madawasko, New Brunswick, that
tells ho was one of tho early educa
tors of that time and held numerous
government positions. He was my
tutor during my school days. Many
things which I have observed there,
ore still fresh in my memory. I
went to a private Institution, a col
lege for men and boys aspiring to
clerical vocations, but ran away from
there and landed. in the west. Quite
a short experience at college, but I

to Portland, Maine, on three different ,
trips across tho continent east and :

During all tills, I have studied all

say that I did steal one book. It was
a Bible. My mother's religious Idofts
forbidding tills, sho burned the book.
I had to go and ask the man I had
taken the book from, to givo It to
me In order to square my conscience
with" my God. From all these things
I have observed the doings of man.
In the lumbcrcamps, railroads, mines
and mills I havo learned much of

different spheres of life. My books
