NO. 5 ROUSING MAYOR OF CHICAGO RE-ELECTION TO VOTERS OF (By the Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, April 22. — The Negro voters of Chicago, more than 50,000 in number, have been acclaimed by the democratic leaders as the one con- tributing factor in the re-election of Mayor William Hale Thompson as mayor. This fact was also atted by all of the daily papers, both in their news stories and editorially. Mayor Thompson was elected, according to present figures, by about 18,000 votes, and more than 11,000 votes plurality, was given him in the Second ward, said by the Chicago Tribune to be "the greatest Colored ward in the world." To this ward must be added the pluralities in the Third and Fourteenth wards, where thousands of Negro voters also live and it is easy to be seen that Mayor Thompson owes his political success to the Negro voters of Chicago. Every daily newspaper in Chicago opposed the mayor. The last days of the campaign were embittered by personalities, and many rampant white partisan opponents of the mayor publicly denounced his "friendship for the Negro," which the mayor just as publicly acclaimed everywhere he had an opportunity, because, he declared in a specially prepared statement for The Associated Negro Press, following the election: "I have given fair representation to the Colored people of Chicago because as republicans they have helped nominate and elect me, and, secondly, as American citizens they are entitled to their quota of representation in governmental affairs. "They contributed their quota to the armed forces of the nation and performed valiant service for their country. From the records at hand, it cannot be denied that they discharged their duties of American soldiers with as great a degree of bravery and heroism as any other element in the American armies. "The history of the Colored race in America is a record of fealty and devotion to our country, and in this election they have again demonstrated that they may be relied upon to act intelligently. They have allied themselves with those forces that stand for the highest development of our country and the greatest protection to its people. ```markdown ``` "I have maintained and still insist that the man who so nobly upheld the majesty of our government on foreign battlefields ought not to be deprived of participation in the government which he would give his life to preserve. He has earned his right to cast a ballot anywhere that an American citizen may vote under the Stars and Stripes. "I stand for the constitution of our country, the constitution of our state and the laws enacted under them. I believe in the Declaration of Independence. I am for America and American citizens first, last and all the time, without any distinction of race, creed or color." The election proves that the Negro of Chicago will not sell out, and that he believes in standing by his friends, declared Major R. R. Jackson, to the Associated Negro Press. "Chicago achievements give heart to the Negroes throughout the nation," he continued, "and we are in a position to accomplish great things if we pull together." BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—To commemorate the living and the dead who were heroes in the great world war from Jefferson county, the directors of the Civic Association went on record in favor of erecting a Liberty building in Alabama in which the names of all men in the service shall be engraved on its walls and in which the community gatherings will take place. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—For the first time in the history of Philadelphia, a colored common councilman, Richard A. Cooper, is a member of the finance committee of that body MISSISSIPPI JURY AQUITS BLACK MAN OF MURDER CHARGE OF WHITE MAN JACKSON, Miss., April 23.—A Mississippi jury, composed entirely of white men, has found a Negro not guilty of the murder of a white man. The defense was sustained that the killing was done in self-defense, and the defendant a man of high moral character in the community. Speaking of the event editorially, the Montgomery (Ala.) Times (white) says: "Character is the first requisite to full and adequate protection under the law, and whenever a Negro is able to get the approval and endorsement of the white people of a community, he is assured of fair treatment in every instance." To this the Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer Sun responds: "The Negro has no trouble getting such endorsement from the white people if he lives so that no shadow can be cast upon him." NATION'S CAPITAL HAS COLORED MEN ON ITS FIRE DEPARTMENT NATION'S CAPITAL HAS COLORED MEN ON ITS FIRE DEPARTMENT WASHINGTON, D. C., April 23.—For the first time in the history of the nation's capital there is a Colored fire department in this city in the southwest section of the city. The commissioners made the transfer a few days ago, placing the white men in other positions. The Southwest Civic association plans to hold a reception in the honor of the new department, and resolutions of thanks have been sent the commissioners. COLORED VOTERS TO SUPPORT CANDIDATE WHO FAVORS JUSTICE (By Associated Negro Press) Wilmington, Del., April 23.—In the approaching mayorality fight in this city, the negro voters of the community have let it be known that they will not support the candidate of any party—republican or democrat, who is not openly in favor of giving a square deal to all. It is a new style of race politics, and is giving the politicians of both parties much concern, for this vote is the balance of power. NEW YORK—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its secretary, John R. Shillady, of New York, has called the attention of Secretary of Labor Wilson and the Pennsylvania authorities of the wholesale deportation from Coatesville, Pa., of men who during the war were employed in the various industries, but who are now unemployed as a result of the shutting down of these industries. MONTGOMERY, Ala.—Based on urgent telegraphic requests from various citizens of Chicago, President Wilson requested Governor Thomas 7. Kilby to grant a reprieve to Sergt. Edgar Caldwell, who was sentenced to be hanged at Anniston for the murder of Cecil Linton, a conductor on an Anniston streetcar. The president requested a "brief reprieve" to permit "the attorney general, at my request, to examine the records in the case." ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY CALL TO MEMBERSHIP BY PRESIDENT OF COL- ORED WOMEN'S CLUBS CALL TO MEMBERSHIP BY PRESIDENT OF COL- ORED WOMEN'S CLUBS Dear Co-worker of the Northwestern Federation, C. W. C. Greetings: It has been estimated that the first 24 hours of a drive along a ten mile front, during the terrific war in which we so recently participated, represented an investment of $53,999,400 in guns and ammunition, and we had the gigantic task of raising the money to furnish them. While the government took only the young blood of our manhood to fight in the trenches along with the allies, there was no limitation to age, nor restriction to sex, of those who could enlist to fight behind the men behind the guns. Among the latter class I was privileged to work and preach the gospel of salvation through food conservation, and organize for the raising of money otherwise to help the boys over there and over here, all the time holding the home lines so that a proper morale should be existing against their return home. It was during the latter part of the struggle that I was overcome and have since that time been endeavoring to recover. This has been the reason for my long silence since the declaration of the armistice. We have demonstrated the need of our organization work and it has been going on quietly through the cooperation of loyal members of the Federation. We have a cordial invitation to hold our biennial meeting at Grand Forks, N. D., as guests of the Laides' Aid society of the C. M. E. church, who will entertain free of charge. We feel this invitation opportune; first, because of the influence which is bound to result from our meeting in that section, and again because the women of the northwest wield a powerful influence, because of their extended franchise. Now, more than at any time in the past, is it incumbent upon the womanhood of the country to speak in no uncertain tones to the legislators of the United States, letting them know our attitude and all matters relating to this reconstruction period, and terms upon which they can expect our co-operation, otherwise our eternal opposition. Again, it will be a splendid opportunity, now the war is over, to recount the opportunities grasped by each group, and the results following upon intensive adherence to unification of effort, such as has been the privilege of women as never before. We, therefore, take great pleasure in sending out this call to our membership, urging you to send your delegates to this convention the first three days of July, according to your constitutional representations. For placement send your name to Mrs. Bessie E. Turpin, 1007 Fourth avenue, Frand Forks, North Dakota JOANNA SNOWDEN PORTER, Press Minnie E. Scott, chairman Executive Board, 612 Pinewood avenue, Toledo, Ohio. GEORGIA MAYOR HOLDS CONFERENCE WITH BLACK MINISTERS (By Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., April 23.—Mayor Jas L. Key, of this city, held a conference in his office Saturday with the Colored ministers of the city and members of the executive bond and tax committee, the object being to enlist the support of the Colored people in Atlanta in the coming special election. CHICAGO, Ill.—George Dewey Lopacomb, a Negro student of the Northwestern university, has been chosen to represent the college in the Northern Oratorical' league contest to be held May 2 at Northwestern.

YOUNG IUSSES RINGING APPEAL TO COLORED YOUNG MEN COL. YOUNG IUSSES RINGING APPEAL TO COLORED YOUNG MEN A Ringing Appeal by Colonel Charles Young to Youth Upon Whose Shoulders Grave Responsibilities for the Future of Our Country Rests to Fully Prepare Themselves for Proficient and Patriotic Leadership and Citizenship. Colored young men of America, you fine fellows upon whose shoulders fall and even now is falling the hope of race and country, I salute you and give you greetings: Frederick Bruce, N. Wright 'Cuney Booker T. Washington, DuBois and hosts of others have proved power of Negro political leadership and organization. Col Charles Young. Let no man innoculate you with the lie that these things are not true and that there is an inherent inferiority in any racial group in America—white or black or yellow. Dr. Crummel, Bishops Allen, Payne, Grant, Turner, Arnott and hosts of others have proved the same for church leadership of the Negro. I call upon each young college and high school man to wake up! Can you sit supine and indifferent while the foundations of your own future, that of your unborn children as well as that of the country we love so well are being undermined by propaganda against your capacity for leadership of your own people? Toussaint Louverture, Crispus Attucks, Maceo, officers and non-comissioned officers of the civil, Spanish-American and world wars have proved the capacity of the Negro for military leadership. Let no man deceive you to the contrary. Untruths are being circulated in the press to the end that you may be impressed with ideas of your innate inferiority and that as a result of the acceptance of the idea by the common Negro man, our race shall be kept bound down as a lower caste in our own country. Not all of the white people, not even a majority are in accord with this insidious and persistent plotting By patience, by acts of love and courtesy, by serious purpose and endeavor to show the salutory effects of higher education upon the Negro group, let every Negro American boy show his manhood, his virile determination to measure up to all that is highest and best in American life, so that we may keep the friendship of this friendly majority. Let us study the things that are in accord with the genius of our race that we may add these as cultural gifts to our country. Let us study the history of our own race not only in the United States, but in the West Indies, South America, Asia and Africa. Ah, Africa! land filled with the glorious history of that proud race that gave civilization to the white race; land if you knew its heroes and achievements you would thank God for every drop of black blood within you! And now to the crux of this matter: I adjure you by everything you hold sacred; God, honor, duty, country, that you take advantage of the universal military training and the reserve officers' training corps units now being organized in your high TRIBUNE COLORED WOMAN WILL PRACTICE LAW IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA COLORED WOMAN WILL PRACTICE LAW IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA Estella Henderson, Member Faculty Morris Brown College, Seeks Adm mission to Atlanta Bar (By Associated Negro Press.) Atlanta, Ga., April 19.—With offices already opened in the Negro Odd Fell low building, Estelle A. Henderson, proposes to be the first Negro woman to practice law in Georgia. Already admitted to the bar in Alabama, Attorney Henderson states that she will soon be admitted to practice here. She is already a member of the faculty of Morris Brown college. DEMOCRATIC MEMBER SAYS ITS A CRIME TO DISPISE A BLACK MAN (By Associated Negro Press) Providence, R. I., April 23.—Jewish, Italian and race support, together with that ever present group of loyal whites, was given the Civil rights bill in the legislature here. Philip V. Joslin was the Jewish citizen who spoke in behalf of the bill. Representative Luigi De Pasquale, a member of the democratic party, said in part: "To despise a man regardless of his intellectual attainments and his character, simply because his faç is black, is a crime against civilization. It is very unfair to say that certain, people should live in certain localities not because they have violated any law, human or divine, but simply because they are different in complexion from others. Race prejudice and race hostifity present a serious problem and its solution cannot be had by depriving citizens of their privileges and of their rights guaranteed under the Constitution." schools, colleges and universities: 1st. That you may qualify for efficient leadership of your own racial group in event of our country being called for future war. 2d. That you may not sink to an inferior caste in the country of your birth, having the stigma of being incapable of leading because of lack of preparation, and because you indifferently and selfishly threw away the golden opportunity for training for scientific leadership which is now being offered by the general government. 3d. Because it is right, patriotic, and American that each social group in America should emulate all that is good and progressive in any other group. Do this and we fulfill our country's destiny and measure up to our ideals of what the flag stands for. 4th. You can afford the six weeks' active summer training even though you believe it a sacrifice. Let no man deceive you into telling you it is not worth while or that you cannot afford it. Lastly, I implore you to have faith in yourselves and the dignity of your manhood as such. Love the country, its flag, its people, both black and white, north and south, striving without hatred and without animosities for a better and better Americanism, to believe that the constitution and the flag for which our race has spent its blood and treasure are sufficient guarantee for our every right and privilege. Let us daily strive by acting up to the highest and best within us to make democracy a reality and a success in our national life. This can only be done by daily endeavor in which the golden rule measures our conduct. Not acting so, we but cool the love of our friends and heat the hate of our enemies and stop the wheels of progress of our race and country. May the good God nerve you and serve you, fire you and inspire you. Trusting to your patience and forbearance and that you will do the right as "God gives you to see the right," let us with joined hands and singleness of purpose face the morning and go forward! COLORED CITIZENS OF PHOENIX ROYALLY ENTERTAIN OUR BOYS RECENTLY BACK FROM FRANCE Making Love According to Reed & Kellog's Lessons in English New Britain, Conn., April 18. — A local boy with the Medical Corps of the American Army of Occupation in Germany writes thus to his mother: "You see a beautiful girl walking down the street. If she has silk stockings on, she is feminine. If she is singular, you become nominative You walk across to her, changing to verbal and then become dative. If she's not objective, you become plural. You walk home together. Her mother is accusative. You become imperative. You go in and sit down. The little brother is an indefinite article. You talk of the future. She changes to the object. You kiss her and she becomes masculine, her father is present, things are tense and you are a past participle." LAMP BLACK USED TO CONCEAL IDENTITY OF CHICAGO ROBBERS (By Associated Negro Press) CHICAGO, April 23—Chicago has been visited this spring by an unusual wave of crime. In several instances, where robberies have been committed, it has been reported through the daily press that the victims declared that the "robbers were Negroes." Three "colored" men stepped into Adam Streit's grocery when he was alone at noon. One of them put a revolver in front of Streit's face. Streit came across the counter and seized the revolver by the muzzle. There was a scuffle and the "colored" men took out, running at high speed through the street, with the grocer after them. Two of them were finally caught and taken to the police station, where it was immediately discovered that the "colored" men were in reality white men covered with lamp-black. The men were much chagrined over the discovery of their "color." Captain Thomas Coughlin of the Stock Yards station said that he believes they are the "colored" robbers who have been carrying on much of the robbery on the South Side, and which has been laid at the door of the other residents of that section. CHURCH CONFERENCE FAVORS SQUARE DEAL AND EXACT JUSTICE CHURCH CONFERENCE FAVORS SQUARE DEAL AND EXACT JUSTICE (By Associated Negro Press) Lexington, Ky., April 23.—The Lexington Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, closed a successful session here, after going on record in their annual "Message to the Country" as favoring "equal and exact justice for all, and a definite, untiring working out of the great problems of reconstruction." This conference comprises more than 50,000 members and speaks for its work in the state of Kentucky, Indiana Ohio, and the Methodist work in Chicago and southern Michigan HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss.—Ben Ingram, charged with the murder of Green Brumley, wealthy white farmer, whose death occurred after a *gun duel* on December 10, 1918, was acquitted recently in the circuit court after one of the most vigorous legal battles ever waged in Marshall county. 5 Cents a Copy; $2 a Year OLDIERS OF PHOENIX TAIN OUR BOYS ACK FROM FRANCE Monday night, April 21, the colored citizens of Phoenix turned out en masse to honor our returned heroes. Tanner chapel, A. M. E. church, was the scene of this brilliant affair and the house was packed and jammed. Standing room was at a premium and many were unable to gain admission. The meeting was opened by singing "The Star-Spangled Banner," after which Rev. R. E. Herring, pastor of Tanner chapel, invoked Divine blessing upon the audience. A few musical selections were rendered by Mrs. L. A. Walker and a company of school girls delighted the audience with a flag drill. The master of ceremonies introduced Rev R. H. Herring, who read a letter from Governor Thos. E. Campbell in which he stated his regrets for not being able to attend the meeting, and assuring the colored people of Phoenix that he was with them, heart and soul, in all their efforts to uplift the race. Rev. Herring delivered a short address in which he heartily welcomed the returned soldiers and told how firmly we had stood behind them while they were fighting to make the world safe for democracy and of our desire to give them due honor and credit, which they so richly deserve. the principal speaker of the evening, in the person of Private Floyd Shomo, No. 137 Motor Truck Corps, 92nd Division, was then introduced. The speaker told of his experiences in the various training camps in this country, of his voyage across the Atlantic, and of his training and fighting on foreign soil. Private Shomo bears the distinction of being a member of the 92nd Division, and as this division did the hardest fighting of any Americans in the last hours of the war, its members are well qualified to tell of actual conditions over there. The 92nd Division was the only complete Negro unit that fought under the Stars and Stripes and was composed of men from nearly every state in the Union and trained in various cantonments in this country before their journey over-seas. It saw service in the Vosges mountains, Argonne forest and in the Marbache sector, operating against the wonderfully fortified city of Metz. Private Shomo said that their division took over the area surrounding Metz on October 7 and held it until the signing of the armistice. He also stated that the entire division was very active on this front, taking many towns and capturing many prisoners. The speaker said that it rains 336 days in the year in France and that he and others slept many nights in the rain. Their rations for a time consisted of corned beef and "hard tack," nothing more. He told how the boys there are now suffering and longing to return home. He made a fervent plea that the colored people purchase Victory Bonds to the limit as the government was sorely in need of money. His talk on his experiences overseas and in behalf of the Victory Loan struck a responsive chord and he was enthusiastically applauded, showing that the audience was in perfect accord with him. First Sergeant Ford M. White, Co. B, 349th M. G. Bn., was next introduced. He read an order from Commanding Officer Blue in which he appealed to the people to support the Victory Loan. Sergeant White then explained the uses of the gas mask and of the manner in which they affected the victim. He stated that the mustard gas was the most poisonous of all the gases used by the Huns. Prof. P. Landry, principal of Douglas school, was next introduced. He told the boys that we were glad to welcome them back home. That we had backed them with Liberty Bonds while they were fighting, and now that the fight is over we are going to continue to back them by purchasing Victory Bonds. Prof. Landry's talk was opportune and to the point.

Our boys went forward THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND strong, and their records on the battle-fields of France are unsurpassed by those of any other race. The women and men of the race, who stayed at home, did their bit in all the Liberty Loan campaigns and other war relief agencies. In the recent United War Work drive, the colored people of Tennessee were asked to raise $150,000. They took the "bit in their mouths" and succeeded in raising over $200,000. One colored man in Louisiana, who had made a fortune in oil wells discovered on his land, subscribed and paid for $100,000 worth of Liberty Bonds and bought the limit of war saving stamps.

Some of our boys who have recently returned from France have told us of the suffering and privation endured by them and their comrades behind the lines, also of the more than 2,000,000 United States soldiers now in France, who are suffering, sorrowing and waiting for the American people to alleviate their suffering and stop their sorrow by buying bonds of the Victory Loan, thus furnishing the means for their safe return to the dear old U. S. A. Arizona must go "over the top" in this final Loan Drive and our dollars should play an important part in helping her to reach this high water mark. It is needless for the Loan Committee to beg, plead and issue ringing appeals to the colored citizens of this State. We esteem it a privilege to aid the government and we are going to buy bonds until it hurts and then buy some more. Sure, we'll help finish the job. Colored Americans, AWAKE! Our record is at stake.

THE COLORED PRESS A VALUABLE ASSET IN WAR WORK An asset of incalculable value in pushing war work among the colored people of the country was the Negro press, the larger portion of which is actively identified with the National Negro Press Association, the organized instrumentality of the race for the propagation of sentiment looking to its general uplift. These papers, large and small, of every denominatio, fraternal or geographical section without exacting a peny of compensation, gave column upon column of their space to the war news that cherred the millions of colored Americans throughout the period of hostilities and kept them fully informed as to the helpful activities of the masses in the work of winning the war. This service proved to be of the greatest possible assistance to those charged with the conduct of the war, as it won and held the confidence of the people maintaining their morale and stimulating their patriotism at the crucial hour, when this nation needed the loyal and earnest co-operation of every element of its citizenship to assure victory to its cause. The superb and generous support given by the colored press to the war aims of the American government was one of the outstanding and most gratifying features of the trying conflict with the foes of civilization. Rousing Welcome to Returned Soldiers (Continued from page 1) form were: Private F. Shomo, Srgt. Ford M. White, Privates Morris Sims, Larue Moore, Emmett Lewis, John Hightower. The Boy Scouts of Phoenix also were on the platform. Just before the meeting closed Srgt. White and Pvt. Shomo passed out several hundred Victory Loan pamphlets, title, "Where the War Money Went." At the close of the meeting a reception and banquet was tendered the soldiers, Boy Scouts and others. Everybody went away happy and with a firm resolve to continue backing our boys by purchasing the limit in Victory Loan Bonds.

It happens Thursday evening, May 1, at the A. M. E. church. Well, what is it? Mesdames Charles F. Carter and I. F. Silvers will stage a living picture show at the church. In addition to the many beautiful lassies who may be seen in different poses, Messrs Shomo and White will take part and show how the soldiers came out of the trenches and other interesting features. This affair will be given for the benefit of the Day Nursery that the Self-Improvement Art club is planning to establish here. The admission fee is ten cents—a dime—two nickels. Everybody invited. Excellent music will be furnished for the occasion. South Second street is destined to become a popular place this summer. There have been many new enterprises opened up the past week. One that is the peer, if not the best, is the sanitary and up-to-date cold drink and cigar stand at 27 South Second street. This establishment is owned by Mr. Fred Gardner and he has spared neither money nor pains in making it a first-class cigar and root beer stand. A big wooden barrel with a large stone jar on the inside of it, is the receptacle that will contain the "none such" root beer to be served at this stand. Nothing like it in Phoenix, and if you take one glass of this famous root beer, you'll come back for another. Easter Egg Hunt The Douglas school kindergarten enjoyed one of the grandest Easter egg hunts in the history of their little lives. It happened Good Friday, April 18. The Kindergarten Mothers' club furnished a lot of candy eggs for the purpose, and Mrs. J. A. Green, one of the members of this club, took the candy to the school, where the egg hunt was pulled off. Mrs E. M. Hollowell brought a few dozen real eggs for the kiddies and all this combined made Friday, April 18, a day of real joy for the little children Mrs. Phoebe Gardiner, teacher of the kindergarten, assisted by Mrs. Ardmore-Jenkins, helped the ladies entertain the kiddies and all found delight in the work. Sunday was grand rally day at the C. M. E. church and there was plenty of entertainment for everybody. The children's exercises were interestingly carried out and favorable comment was made of same. The grand musical program, Sergeant Ford M. White's address and the splendid reports of the various club leaders were the crowning features of the day. The rally proved a big success and the funds raised by the various clubs more than came up to the expectations of the pastor. The A. M. E. church was the scene of a brilliant Easter program, both afternoon and evening. The children rendered a splendid program in the afternoon and the A. M. E. choir held forth at the evening services. The program in the afternoon was all that could be expected and much credit is due the ladies who drilled the children. The evening program was fair- Pho Wholesa ly good. A cornet solo by Mr. Chas. Fish, director of the choir, was the feature of the evening concert. Birthday Party On Sunday, April 13, a delightful birthday party was given at 1342 East Jefferson street in honor of Mrs. J. F.

This is the unanimous verdict of experienced oil men who know the new lease taken over by your company. "Eighty acres, undivided, taken jointly by the T. O. P. company and Mr. E. J. Lambert. This acreage was selected by Mr. Lambert and your company's Texas representative, after a careful survey of the Ranger, Burk-Burnett and Duke fields.

Washington St. RELIEF FOR STOCKMEN Live Stock Sanitary Board Offers Help Against Black Leg and Hog Cholera | Stockmen all over Arizona will be ‘interested in the newest activity of the State Live Stock Sanitary Board, hy which, under the enactment by the! legislature, they are supplying those "rho need it with “Black Leg” vaccine and “Hog Cholera” serum in small | quantities for just what they ‘cost in big wholesale lots. After studying | the experiences pf other states, and |as a result of considerable personal experimentation, State Veterinarian |R. J. Hight has procured a stock of \the most approved germ free liquid | vaccines. The black leg vaccine, will cost seventeen and a half cents per ‘dose. It is put up in bottles contain- |ing five, ten, twenty and forty-five doses. The hog cholera virus and the | hog cholera serum cost one and a halt “cents per cubic centimeter, Since the size of the dose varies with the size of the hog, the cost per dose will vary from 45 cents (approximately) to | $1.50, Few’ people “realize how great a drain black leg is on the state even | now and in spite of the fact that the ‘disease is preventible, It is estimated | that at least 25,000 young cattle have | died in Arizona each year in the past few years entailing a loss of approxi- "mately $1,000,000 yearly to the cattie | interests. ‘The most exasperating "part of the thing is that the loss could “have been avoided entirely by care | and at a very slight expense. | When black leg gets started, It ts | very hard to tell where it will stop. | Since, when one animal dies, a large | area of range is liable to become in- | fected. | When an animal is infected, it gets feverish and stamps around stiff and lame for a little while. ‘Then swell- ings appear on various parts of the body. These swellings are usually on the legs, from which fact the disease wets its name. In a few days the ani- _mal dies. One dose of black leg vac- | cine which could be procured trom the Live Stock Sanitary Board for sev- enteen and a half cents would have given the animal immunity for life. Hog cholera has been almost eradi- | cated from Arizona, thanks to the ¢o- operation of the federal authorities | ana tho state velerlaarian. ‘There ts never any telling, however, as to when and where the disease will appear again since the -infection often re- | mains in the premises for many months and hogs placed thereon may take the disease. There is little hope for the recovery of a hog stricken with cholera unless the serum can be ad- ministered very ‘shortly after the ani- | mal is afflicted. The ‘chief work of the farther will be to save the rest of his stock. ‘The well animals should be treated with the hog cholera virus and serum. This gives them immun- ity from thedisease. Unless the farmer has had experi- ence in administering the serum, he should call in a veterinarian as ‘the treatment requires knowledge and skill. Should there be no veterinary surgeon in the neighborhood, notice should be sent to the Live Stock Sani- ary Board at Phoenix and a veterin- | arian will be sent out, as hog cholera in any district is a menace to the en- tire state. Administering the black leg vaccine requires. no. special training. The steckmen must have a hypodermic syringe which will help him measure the dose accurately. The vaccine is injected under the skin on’the neck or behind the fore-leg. his ) “Those desiring more information these diseases and their treat- ara Write to the Live Stook CLASSIFIED ADS H | arvest Is In Sighi! . : esi get er hh a a ee nn a Have you placed your order for a harvester?
