SOAP AND HOG CIIoLERA.-J. r..
Busby, Lancaster, writes the Ohio
Farmer that he had known hogs said
to have this disease dissected, and the
stomach, bowels and livers found full
of worms three or four inches long,
the ends of them were pointed and
sharp, and of ahard, rough, wiry APP
pearance. In one instance the cavity
of the gall was crowded full of these
worms. His Poland pigs were at
tackled with cholera. He caught
the pigs, placed them on their backs,
one boy hDlding the legs and the other
the ears-and gave each pig table
spoonful of soft soap morning and
evening for three days. The second
day he observed in their droppings
long stringy substances, which he
found to be the skins of what he sup.
posed to be worms, which was proof
to him that the soft soap had the de-
sired effect. He also put soft soap
into the swill aud fed his other hogs,
which has improved their appear
ance very much.
