Lice on Swine.

But very few farmers fully realize the
extent and injury Of lice on swine. Some
wonder why there is not ten pounds fat
and flesh in each bushel of corn fed TO
their hogs. II is ice. Some of the best
hog breeders H. tae country send ont hogs
just s%warning with lice. Not long since
we saw at a railroad station a pair Of
choice Poland Chinas from one of the
most popular breeders in Illinois going to
an Iowa farmer. There were thousands
of Ii, G on them. There is, or should be,
. constant war on lice on swine. The are
not hard to destroy, but it has to be done
n the right way, and not spasmod
ically, blu constant w~atchfulness must be
exercised. Cleanse hogs perfectly, and
it is probable in two weeks or a month
they will be infected as badly as ever.
They always operate the worst on the
weakest, but are not averse to suck the
life blood of the thriftiest and %stoutest.
DO the best you can, and there will
always be a few left to attend the funerals
and TO begin the great work of multipli-
cation again. Get your hogs into a close
pen az least twice a month and syringe
them with an emulsion Of coal oil and
butter milk.
