As an aid to Oregon farmers who are becoming more and more interested in hog raising, the Agricultural Department at Washington is sending out a number oi instructive bulletins, of which the following is a partial list: No. 379, Hog Cholera; No. 23, heeding Harm Animals; No. 205, Pig Management; No. 339, Al falfa; No. 372, Soy Beans; No. 462, Uailization of Logged Off Lands; No. 350, Dehorning Cattle; No. 272, A Successful Hog and Seed Corn Harm; No. 272, Boys’ Pig Clubs. Any farmer who desires any or all of these bulletins may obtain same tree of charge by writing to any of the Oregon representatives or senators at Washington. I hereby announce myself at a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the office ol County Surveyor. Edw. J Himes. (P aid A d vertisem en t.) POSTAL VOTE. A topic which is increasing in importance with each sucessive election, is called to general attention by Secretary Bryan, in his expression of the hope that voting by postofiice will yet be put in practice in tins country, tor that large body oi American citizens who pursue business occupations which keep mem almost constantly away from home and so render their actual presence at the polls a matter of great dilliculty, and, not infrequently, oi impossibility. Secretary Bryan’s iuea, ii put in operation, of course, would not alter the general methods of elections. The incidents and scenes of election day, would be about the same as they are now. A casual onlooker would not be likely to realize that there had been any change whatever. But there would be a very important change in the circumstance, that while the citizen of fixed habitation would vote as he always has the citizen whose occupa tion necessarily makes him a transient, would be able to vote without the trouble and expense of a literal re turn to his place of residence— that is, he could send his vote by mail. It is a well recognized fact, especially in presidential elections, that thousands of voters, earnest and patri otic, who are engaged in business requiring continual travel, are put to heavy cost and harsh inconvenience by the rule requiring their physicial presence at the polls. Take for example the hundreds of thousands of commercial travelers in the United States. Theirs is a conspicuous instance. SEWAGE IRRIGATION IN NEW JERSEY! A profitable means of disposing of sewage from institutions and small communities in districts where no genearl system of sewage disposal is available is disclosed by a report of experiments carried on by the department of agricultural at the New Jersey Training School located at Vineland. In the past the sewage from this institution, which has a summer population of 600 individuals, has been a nuisance, ruining the land and creating a breeding place for mosquitoes unless well covered with oil. In 1913 this sewage was spread over about twice as much ground as formerly, and this land, instead of be ing injured, was made to produce heavy crops of al falfa and silage corn, thus doing away with the nuis ance and securing a valuable crop at the same time. It was possible to run this sewage over part of an alfalfa field planted previously and compare the yield from the Irrigated and the unirrigated tracts. The part of the field in which the sewage was run yielded at the rate of five tons per acre for the season, while the part of the season receiving no sewage yielded at the rate of three tons per aree. The yields of corn were not determined but the yield on the land on which the sewage water was run was so much larger than that on the land not watered that the directors of the school are putting in the equip ment necessary to spread the sewage over still larger areas in 1914. GOOD F O R 50 VOTES T H E P O L K C O U N T Y ITEMIZER VOTING CONTEST Void A fto r April 15, 1914. Your correspondent was pres ent at a meting of the demo cratic county committee of Marion county last Saturday just before Chairman Dan J. Fry called it to order. The fore noon was exceedingly stormy and only 16 of the 33 members were present. A poll showed that 14 of the 16 were Manning supporters and that two were pledged to Dr. Smith. These iien, who would brave the inclement weather to attend a meeting, not in itself very im portant, can all be classed as "enthusiastic” workers in the cause of democracy. In Multnomah county Mr. Manning is certain to receive a majority of the votes cast, un- ess something very unforeseen recurs during the next five j weeks. That is, a majority over the combined vote of Dr. Smith, Judge Bennett and Rob ert A. Miller. The vote of the latter two, as far as this county is concerned will be scattering and negligible. It is more ap parent around the Imperial Hotel than in any otheA part of 'he county. The republicans have a big T ger split, and more enmities have been engendered thus far in the campaign, especially as regards the governorship, than in any previous time in the polit ical history of Oregon and many of the most widely known re publican war horses privately assert that they have given up hope of electing a governor this year, “ unless,” they add, “ Ben nett takes enough votes away from Manning to give Smith the nomination.” ROUNDERS. I hereby announce myself as a candidate for the nomination on the Republican ticket for the office of Circuit Judge. I was admitted to the bar in 1874 and have had a wide and varied ex- perience in the practice of law, and if elected I shall administer the law on principles of justice and not on technicalities. Glen O. Holman. For Sheriff. I hereby announce myself as a candidate for the office of Sheriff of Polk county, Oregon, upon the Democratic ticket, subject to the will of the voters i at the primary election, and if nominated and elected I will, to I the best ot my ability, enforce the laws on our statute books without fear or favor, and es- pecially the laws regulating the sa'e of intoxicating liquors, and * will practice the utmost econ- oniY h\ the management o f the county’s business.

Mrs. Btrarland, o f Frankston, Texas, found after using Peruna that not only did the Incessant cough disap pear, but the dropping of mucus into the throat had also ceased.

There was almost a continual dropping of mucus into m y throat, which caused frequent expectoration. M y entire system gradually became involved, end m y condition grew worse.
