DANIEL , CITY CLERK THE BARTOW TRtBUNE-fHE CARTERSVILLE NEWS, SEPT. 27, 1917. SHE M HOGS SAYS BEPARTHENT It is recognized that there is at the present time a shortage of meat pro ducing animals, and it would seem that this shortage will increase, as far as hogs are concerned, as recent sta tistics show 7 that there are now nearly 5,000,000 less hogs in the United States than a year ago. In view of the above mentioned shortage of meat producing animals the state and federal departments of agriculture propose to extend greater efforts of assistance In the suppres sion of hog cholera by covering a greater amount of territory, making the campaign which has been and is row conducted co-operatively by the State Department of Agriculture, through the office of the state veterin arian, and the U. S. Bureau of Ani mal Industry as nearly statewide as possible. Experience in the past, based on ac tual field observations, has proven the value of the serum simultaneous or double treatment, when administered by fexperts. All men employed by eith er the state or federal governments are trained veterinarians and have had wide experience in the control of hog cholera and other diseases of hogs. There will be no charges for the services of these experts. The depart ments mentioned earnestly solicit the co-operation of all farmers to increase pork production in Georgia. The State Commissioner of Agricul ture in his yearly report for 1916 em phasizes the fact that Georgia paid, to people outside the state, $5,251,920 for side meat. These figures were ob tained by the number of pounds of this meat shipped into the state figur ing 15 cents per pound. During almost the entire year of 1916 hog prices were about one-half of what they are today. If Georgia buys the same number of pounds this year, under existing pric es, it is not placing the figures too high to say she will send to the hog raising states $10,000,000 for this class of meat, provided, of course, she is able to get meat shipped in at all. Much of the meat formerly shipped to the south from the central states must now go to feed our allies in the pres ent war. It would seem, therefore, that it is up to us to raise our own pork and keep this money at home. Although there lias,been a decrease of 10 per cent in the last year in the r umber of breeding stock in some of the leading hog raising states, Geor gia has increased her production in this line in the last three years some thing like a Ealf million hogs, her in crease in the last year being about 3 per cent, or 73,000; notwithstanding this, if Georgia is to feed herself,"if slie is to feed the people within her boundaries, she must still increase her pork production about 700,000 bogs. These figures are important, it is vitally important a,t the present time that every state that has nol heretofore done so produce enough food for home consumption, and Geor gia. needs to raise uearly 100,000 more bogs to do this. We will not have to look elsewhere |or a market. We need ar least 1,000,000 more meat hogs an nually to supply’ home demands. How ever, it will not add much to the meat supply nor to the hogs raiser’s purse if he grows many hogs and then al lows them to die of cholera or some ether disease, that is preventable, be fore killing or selling time. Conserva tion is as important as production. The days of experimenting with the anti hog cholera serum have passed. No well informed hog raiser today doubts the value of serum. Do not wait until the disease makes its appearance in your herd. Apply the motto “Safety First” in your hog raising. Have your hogs immunized before cholera gets to your herd.

Bahnsen, state veterinarian, or Dr. A L. 1 fir' email, care of the State Veter inarian, Atlanta, Ga. 10 CENT “CASCARETS" BEST laxative FOR LIVER AND BOWELS Don’t Stay Constipated, Headachy, Bilious, With Breath Bad or Stomach Sour.

SURVIVOR OF SUBMARINE ATTACK ENLISTS IN NAVY. Herman L. Dupree, twenty years of ffge, from Birmingham, Ala., walked aboard the U. S. S. Recruit In Union Square at five o’clock Tuesday after ioon and said he wanted to enlist in the United States Navy. While he was being examined by Surgeon J. J Kaveney he casually remarked that he had the experience of submarine gun fire during the past summer. Dupree had shipped from Portland, Maine, last J une on the Norwegian tanker, “Kongsli’ bound for Rotterdam. On the return trip in the third week of August, out four days, from the coast of Rotterdam at five-thirty in the morning three shots were sent across the bow of the tanker. Dupree said: “I was on watch on the hurricane deck. The weather was clear and calm. No warning was given except the three shots. Twenty more were fired and in ten minutes we were sunk. The crew of 28 took to the three boats and immediately the submarine arose and came within fifty yards of us. This was the conversation the captain of the submarine had with our skipper. It was all in English with no trace of German accent.” “ How long have you bad this ship?’ said the submarine captain.” “ ‘A year and a half,’ answered our skipper." " ‘Where was she built?’ he asked.” “ ‘Baltimore,’ was the reply.” , “ ‘What kind of a crew have you?’ ” “‘Mixed: Danish, Swedes and Nor wegians.’ ’’ “ ‘Any Americans?’ ” “ ‘None.’ ” According to Dupree the captain of the tanker asked for a tow and he was told that an English cruiser would be a’eng in the morning. The next day the cruiser came along but paid no attention to the men, it being a rule of the British Admiralty not to pick up life boats. A'ft.er floundering in the rough sea with no rations but a few biscuits and very little water the men finally landed at St. Nazares, France. Dupree has been three years at sea having shipped from Norfolk, Va. He was educated in the public schools at Birmingham. He vvas sent to ie Training Station at Newport.
