r MON TlMES. HE An Advertisement in the TIMES Brings Results V - Weekly Edition Vol 15, No 38 MONETT, MISSOURI, FRIDAY, JUNE 5, 1914 Daily Edition Vol. 6, No. 18 I- ALLEGED HOG CHOLERA CURES Government Not Approved of Any Treatment Except Pro tective Surum. Evidence of what appears to be a well organized campaign to de lude the farmers throughout the country into buying an alleged cure for hog cholera, under the impression that this has been in vestigated and approved by the United States Government, has reached the Department of Ag riculture. Articles praising this medicine, Benetol by name, j are being sent out broadcast to ' newspapers. These articles are so worded that it appears as if the Department of Agriculture had received reports from the State of Minnesota showing that the medicine had proved most beneficial. As a matter of fact the one report. ; by the department was au unofficial and unsolicited statement sent pre sumably from the promoters themselves. The department attaches no importance whatso ever to this statement. It has no reason to believe in the effi ciency of any proprietary cure for hog cholera and does not rec ommend any. Under certain conditions it urges farmers to protect their stock wit h antihog cholera serum, but that is all. In. view of the evidence that the attempt to create this false impression is persistent and widespread, all hog owners are - warned tocommunicatewith the United States authorities before ;iecestuig as true any statement that the Government recom mends any treatment other than the serum already mentioned. P. Martin and Ernest Boss went down to the Martin ranch, near Exeter, Thursday,; to look after crop conditions. r: "Mary Jane" pumps for $2.00 at Gulick's.

Medi ation waits tonight on General Carranza. He has in his posses sion a communication from the three South American diplomats which opens the door for consti tutionalist representation in the conferences here. Upon his word depends wheth er the entire Mexican problem will be settled by diplomacy or whether the constitutionalists will continue to tight their way by force of arms to Mexico City. The mediators have in a digni fied way smoothed the path for constitutionalist participation, the United States government wants them to accept. A rejec tion of thy invitation may event ually mean the withdrawal by the Washington government of moral support it has been ex tending to the constitutionalist cause. There were no conferences to day with either the Mexican or American delegates. It may be stated that all principals would like to see the constitutionalists enter the negotiations in a spirit of conciliation. There will be no obstacles, technical cr otherwise placed in the path of the constitutionalists by the Huerta delegates. , FOR SALE Nice suburban home and 2 acres of fine land, 5 room cottage, small .barn, and other necessary buildings; city water and electric lights, concrete sidewalk; inside city limits, Price for quick sale 3,250. 77 tf. - O'Dwyer & Smerdon.
