The greatest problem of the hog raiser today is the constant danger | Of cholera, If it were not for this disease the hog business would be about the most profitable in the world. Cholera can not always be’ avoided, and it can not often be recognized until the hogs begin to die. But it can be controlled far better by up- to-date methode than it could a few | years ago. Tens of thousands of Missouri hogs in the last year with the serum made Missouri experiment station. Dr. J. all the hogs innoculated are saved from cholera. In many cages the serum {is used in herds where hogs are already dying, but even then it saves most of those not too far gone. The great results obtained with the serum have induced some men to go into the business commercially, so that now there are several “immuniz- ing serums” on the market. these are either worthless, or worse, some of them having actually carried infection into well herds. The cost is so great that it is not yet a profit- able commercial proposition. The faciilties for producing the serum at the college are increased and the work systematized so that } more calls can be answered than for- merly. Still, however, there are more calls than can well be answered. The process of making the serum ig rather Tnteresting, but it is the pur- pose of this article. to suggest some of the means by which cholera is spread, and how some of these may be avoided. The germs of cholera do not fly through the air by themselves, but | Must be carried by some actual con- | tact. A dog, cat, rat or any animal | and going into one uninfected may | carry the disease with it on its feet. Birds ‘may pick up grains of corn or other feed in the lot with the diseased hogs and carry tht disease. Where a hog has died of cholera and the carcass has been dragged out ; to a ravine somewhere, there are a great many dangers.: Crows or buzz- ards may come to pick on the car- cass, They wiil take cholera wher- ever they go, Dogs may eat the flesh and scatter the germs far and wide. Other hogs may find the carcass and the disease themselves and probably infecting a whole herd. When a rain comes, the old carcass will be washed over and a _ large ried to the nearest stream, there to go down through the country, a dan- ger to every herd that drinks that water. Much cholera is carried in this latter way. The remedies for these various trou- bles suggest themselves. For the birds, it is not practical to screen them out, but some help can be got- | ten with a shotgun or a scarecrow. It will help if the lots are kept cleaner than is customary. A vagrant dog i running over a neighborhood is a nuisance anyway, even if he did not carry cholera. The matter of the disposal of car- casses is of great importance. A car- cass should never be dragged out in the pasture and left to feed buzzards. It should either be buried deeply or burned. If cholera is suspected, the latter is much to be preferred. Burning a carcass does not mean simply roasting it with a little fire of sticks, but actually burning and de- stroying it. This is the only abso- lutely sure way of getting all the germs. It will take a good-sized fire to burn a large carcass. When this is done, there is danger of the hogs of the neighborhood al along the creek having cholera on account of the carelessness: of one man. It is often advisable to spread air- | slaked lime in the pens to kill any germs that may be present or to pre- vent the spread of them. In taking hogs to the railroad sta- tion there are many ways of spread- ing the disease. If the animals are driven along the road—as fortunately they are not, usually—the droppings of the herd may leave infection all along to be picked up by other hogs, even though the herd shows no ac- tive signs of the disease at the time. Hogs should always be hauled to the and it will help if air-slaked lime is spread over the floor before loading. The spread of cholera from infected pens at the stock yards is too well known, as it has almost stopped the dealings in stock hogs. The observance of some of these | precautions will lessen the danger of | spreading this dreaded disease. Every \farmer owes it to himself and his | meighbor to be as carefu} as he can. | encanta Some men who don’t know say that skim-milk is just like so much water. | Just how much it is worth depends }on what it is put into and how skill- j fully it is fed. | hogs, and the dairy farmer already realizes its value fcr calves.
