The United States department of ag
riculture says that there is an increas
ed use of serum arising from the good
results of the government Inspection.
“Serum will prevent the disease but
will not cure it,” says Dr. C. P. Fitch
of Minnesota.
The fact that there have been no
swooping losses through hog cholera
in districts where the serum is used
proves its efficacy.

but they frankly occupy the position ol
desiring the issue brought to Its final
end ab the earliest possible time, and
admit 'their conviction that there is
other, as well as no more proper
conclusive, manner of ending it.
Law Says People Must Vote
In no few localities in the state
has .been found the belief exists that
locution of the state capitol is fixed by
the state constitution. In other locali
ties — though these have been found to
be but few — there is entertained some
idea that the state legislature has the
authority to fix the location of the capi
tol, and lias passed upon the question.
Neither idea is correot.
The sole authority for future deter
mination of the question of the capitol.
after the adoption of the convention or
dinance has been by a vote or Die peo
ple of the state. ,,
In the light, of these facts, gentlemen
of both branches of the 1913--'

that the point was reached when “this
capitol removal issue must be settled
one way or the other.” He Bald, as he
has Hlnce repeated, that It has become
a handicap, and will reniuin so until
it is voted on by Die people and gotten
out of the way; that It is studding in
Die way of development, repair and ex
pansion of the state’s properties to meet
the actual pressing demands.
While these are probably not his exact
words, this la the substance of his com
ment. on the situation at that time, and
as it lias been printed and repeated by
him since: “It is an issue that must
be brought to an end. It appears that
it will keep coming up ami getting in
the way of every effort to do anything
about the mansion or an annex to#the
capitol until the people have ended it.

FOOD FOR YOUNG PIGS.
[National Crop Improvement Service.1
A great variety of feeds, including
succulence and protein are essential,
but the feeder should remember that
the stomuch of the pig Is small. This
is why the pig gets the reputation of
feeding all the time because his stom
ach will hold food only for a few
minutes. The feeding of young pigs
three or four times a day at first Is
good business. Small amounts of feed
that will be cleaned up quickly, and
feeding at frequent intervals is highly
important.
PIG8 NEED EXERCISE.
Probably nothing contributes to thrift
and growthlness as exercise; or put
ting it the other way round, nothing
will stunt a pig quicker than lack of
exercise. Beginning gradually, even
young pigs must be induced to move
about.

Why the Issue Needs to Be Settled
For ten years there has been constant
ly growing an agitation for removal of
the state capitol to a location nearer
the center of Georgia. At the time of
its origin it was treated lightly, and
ten years ago was probably not an is
sue of state-wide importance. Devel-

resentativea of a majority of the
ties in the state committed themselves,
not to a movement to remove the capi
tol from Atlanta to Macon, but to the
proposition that this issue is of such
size and importance it must be passed
upon and determined by the voting pop
