C, Jan. 11 Th attention of the Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States De partment of Agriculture has bee called to the fact that the makers ol a medicine sold as a hog-cholera rem edy arc misusing government figure: of the results obtained by federa agents by the use of antihogcholera serum, as evidence of the efficiency of their medicine. In several maga' -ines there have appeared reading no tices in which there are statement!' that this medicine has resulted in saving many hogs from hog cholera in Pettis county. Missouri, Mongom ery county, Indiana, and Dallas com ty, Iowa. The figures given to indi cate the results art exactly those re ported to the Department by its agents as showing the use and effect of antihog-cholera serum in sick herds. For example, the government fig ures on the use of serum, which are misused in this way by the medicine concern, are as follows: Pettis county Mo., Hogs in infected herds treated, 5,904: hogs lost, 1,038 Montgomery county, Ind., number of sick hogs in infected herds treated, 4.562: hogs lost. 894. Dallas county. Iowa, number of sick hogs in infected herds treated, 5.6S6: hogs lost, 1,998 It is scarecly possible that any rem edy could have been used on identi cally the same number of hogs and with exactly the same results as the antihog-cholera serum. On this charge the inspector in charge in Pet tis county, Missouri, states: "As far as w-e are able to ascertain none of this remedy has been used in Pettis county." farmers and others, therefore, are w arned not to confuse this "remedy" with the antihog-cholera serum which is the one method of treatment used by the Federal Department of Agri culture.

By Burton K. Standish. (Written for the United Press) Washingtotn, Jan. 13. There is little boy in Washington, the son of one of the most well known men in the United States who has never last cd candy, ice cream or cake. When he goes to parties, like all other little boys and girls he takes several gra ham crackers and when his compan ions eat candy, and cake and ice cream, he eats crackers. And this little boy goes to scores and scores of parties. He has never been ill and is strong and healthy with "hard mus cles" according to his father. This little fellow with this unique record is the two and a half years old son of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, former chief chemist of the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture. And besides Master Wiley doesn'l want any of those delicacies. "Last May the Northern Pacific Railway sent him an 8 pound fruit cake with two gold plated candles on it," said Dr. Wiley. "I cut a small piece and asked him if he wanted some. "'No. daday. he said, 'Cake not good for your boy.' " Dr. Wiley said he was strongly op posed to feeding children sweets, such as candy, ice cream and cake. "It makes children fat and its a sin to bcin to be fat in babyhood. Wc get that way soon enough." added this big stout man. When the boy attended his first party, Dr. Wiley said he went along and when the other children had lunch he told his boy that sweets were not good for him and that he should not eat them. The lad a:;reed said Dr. Wiley, rnd ate graham crack ers instead. He eats his mush without sugar and cream every morning, said Dr -Wiley, "and yon couldn t make him eat it any other way. He has never been taught to eat candy and sweets and he doesn't want them. Every Sunday evening he gets some black berry preserves, which he enjoys, but they have acids and other foods in them and are nourishing." The youngster didn't eat a bite of candy, or cake on Christmas, the feast day of mose others boys and girls. Dr. Wiley said he bought no candy for his children. Instead they had fresh fruits and nufs. Dr. Wiley said children should not have candy because it interferes with their digestion, decays their teeth and makes them crave an unusual amount. No one under 18 years of age should eat candy, said Dr. W iley. And he recommended it for men and women who work h-d physically. He said it was especially good for football players and that he recommended to the Harvard coach that each player eat sugar during the game. "Sugar burns up quickly in the blood," he added. If Great Britain is still interfering with Germany's mail outside of the Fatherland it is not affecting the pay checks of the employs of the German embassy here. It was state at the embassy recently that the checks came through from the Kaiser's treas ury regularly every month. -President Wilson has been asked o aid in laving the poor of W-s' intr- n from extortion at the hands of tl e oan sharks. Reiiesenting the Asso ciated Charities of this city, Henry White, former United States ambas sador to France and W. H. Baldwin, urged him to get congress, at its ear- iest convenience to pass the amend ment to the Loan Shark Law, which sub-committee of the House Ju diciary reported favorably last -April. The affect of these amendments, Baldwin explained, would raise the rate of interest which loan companies can charge to 2 per cent a month, from the present rate of 1 per cent, and prohibiting licensed chattle loan brokers from conducting a savings bank business. President Wilson is understood to have promised to give the matter early attention, and, if further study of the question convinced him that the amendment should be passed, to urge congress to take action. Father Lane went to Portland this morning. J. A. Byers, of Tangent, was in town this morning on his way to East Independence on business. Father John A. Van Neve!, of Grants Past, is visiting in Albany. Feodore Tet-ie. of Gates, who has been spending the last few days in Portland, passed through Albany this morning on his way home. HEALTH OFFICERS WORK " HARD TO CHECK PLAGUE Washington, Jan. 13. The war ot extermination aginst squirrels being conducted in California by the United Slates Public Health Service in con nection with the precautions against plague has resulted in the death of -II,I50,(XH) rodents, according to fig ures just announced. During the epidemic of plague in San Francisco in l1?-!4-10. it was dis covered that the ground squirrel, a ru ral rodent which abounds on the Pa cific coast, had acquired the infection Cases of plague in human beings which had occurred in rural districts! were traced to these rodents. The health service at once decreed their death. Since I'X'S, the chief efforts of the Public Health Service and the Cali fornia state board of health, acting in cooperation, have been directed to eradication of plague frort anion; squirrels. The most satisfactory work, it is stated has been accom plished since July 1. 1913, due to the ' fact that sufficient funds and ade- j quate legislation were provided by the state legislature at its last session. Ninety per cent of the squirrels on an area of J.I00.tXM acres, or about i equal the sue of Connecticut, have been destroyed since July 1. 1913. The infection has almost disappeared in i this area. So effective has been the j work of the hunters that they have to cover an area of 26 acres to catch j one squirrel j 'In view of this fact it is believed that all discoverable plague has been I eliminated from California." says the I Public He.ilth Service, "and that the"! danger of its further spread has been removed. Observation will be main tained until after the next breeding season, which begins in April, when -if no further infection has made its appearance the statement can be made with certainty that no further plague exists in California. 1-argc economic benetits have accrued to farmers as a result of squirrel destruc- tioin and all are now interested in fin ally destroying' these animals. Pig clubs are the latest fad in Lou isiana, says the Department of Agri culture in a bulletin just issued. The contest of members of the pig clubs at the Louisiana State Fair at Shreve port was highly successful, the de partment reports. Although the fair authorities limited the number of en tries to 150, boys from all parts of the state shipped 185 pigs. The southern farmer, by virtue of his location and climate, is splendidly situated for the production of fowl and eggs, says the Department of Ag riculture in a bulletin just issued. The mild winters and early springs make the production of eggs an easy mat ter when prices are high. On many farms throughout the country, says the Department, the money derived from the- sale of poul try and eggs buys the groceries and clothing for the entire family. Every Southern farmer can do as well, and should aim to keep at least 50 hens for laying purposes and home con sumption.

While prices are good, the depart ment of agriculture advises -farmers should get busy and m.-.kc contract with the city folks to ship eggs by parcel post throughout the year. With a parcel post rgg market es tablished the farmer can depend upon a reliable income all the year around and utilise the mails for marketing other products If the eggs experi ment proves successful. Once having secured a parcel post market for eggs, it w ill be a very easy matter to market many other things by the same method such as butter. WM.
