Very truly yours, B» E. Ha.vden, Proj. Mgr. One evening last summer the writer together with Mr. W. D. Buchholx were looking over the school property and talking over .school matters in a general way when the latter suggested that it might be a good thing to ask the government for an additional block that we might expand a little in the direction of agriculture in the high school. As a result of this conversation the matter .was. later brought up and discussed at meeting of the board of education. A petition was prepared and pres ented by the board to Mr. Hayden who expressed himself at the time as being favorable to such a move at* being a good thing for the schools and for the project. Thru his efforts from that time up to the present we have the tangible result announced in the above letter. The entire community will feel very much indebted to the government and to all who have in any way helped this matter along is the belief t»f, Yours truly, A y S u Watch For Thumps In Early Pigs. 1 humps is quite a common dis ease in young pigs, particularly in winter and early spring. Thumps very seldom, if ever, attacks a litter in the summer time, when the sow has plenty of range and the little, pigs follow her, thereby getting the necessary exercise to keep them in good health. But with the litter farrowed early in the spring. When the winter weath er is cold tud it is impossible to turn them out, other measures must be taken to insure that they have proper exercise, enforced if nec essary. If weather conditions are such that the sow and pi^s cannoi be turned out, a good plan is to put the little pigs outside of the i Qi, and in running around trying to get back in, they will get the exercise that they need. The direct cause of thumps is an irritated condition of the nerves leading to the diaphragm. The diaphragm is the fen-shaped muscle which separates the organs of the abdominal cavity from those of the stank. XJiu U cawed &, •w\ .W»u-1 ""m? r- *,„.,. X, r, y J* principally by digestive disorders, overloading of the stomach, and lack of exercise. In hog cholera, thumping often develops as a com plication late in the course of the disease. Watch the little pigs parefully, as thumps is nearly always fatal, and always leaves them stunted when recovery does occur. Medi cine is hard-to yive. and is not satisfactory.—By W. ,T. Wilson, Assistant in Serum Production. Farmer Develops Case of Insanity.

Cream Separator Should Have Level Solid Base Be sure that the cream separator stands level on a good solid founda tioD. No separator can do perfect skimming when itstands^on a plank iloor that is vibrating at every turn of the handle. The separator should stand on a solid concrete foundation. If this is not possible take a large box, fill it with con crete, and put the separator on the top of this chunk of solid concrete. This heavy material takes away tbe vibration and will cause the separator to run a good d^al smoother than if it stood on a wooden floor dirccl.—Professor C. Larson, S. D. State College.
