MEASLES IN PIGS.
ParasiticaI Disease Which Is Both Con.
 tagious and Dangerous.


 The pig is not affected with measles, except as it harbors the cisticercus cellulosa, or larva of the tenia solium, which last is the tape-worm of man. The cisticercus appears in the tissues of the pig as a minute, glisten- ing point, and pork presenting the ap- pearance which large numbers of these points cause, is said to be measled. The symptoms of this disease, as 1t af- fleets the pig, depend largely upon what organ serves as place in which the cisticercus perfects its develop ment. Hence, there can hardly be said to be any strictly characteristic symptoms, the diagnosis of case de- pending upon the demonstration of the presence of the cisticercus. Indeed, there may be-and more often than oth- erwise there is-absence of any thing like symptoms of illness, the pig get ting on with whatever discomfort it feels without showing symptoms of sickness of any kind. The disease is transmissible from pig to pig, and If the transmissibility stopped with that animal, the disease would be of com paratively minor importance. But such is not the case. On the contrary, one of the most annoying conditions to which mankind are subject, has it's origin in this disease. If measled pork be eaten-either raw or incom- pletely cooked-tape worm results. Nor does the parasite content itself with injuring the one who has been so unfortunate as to give it a growing place. Once the tape worm arrives at maturity in the intestine of its hu- man entertainer it sets about deposit ings, which escaping from the body of the host, are taken up by other ani- malls there to pass the larval stage, and if fortune favors, enter upon an- other round of tape-worm, and tape worm generating existence, injecting ill this way both animal and man, the extent of the infection being almost without limit Knowledge of the foregoing facts is important, inasmuch as it indicates the precautions to be taken to prevent the disease. Such precautions are few, and easily taken. Pork should never be eaten unless it has been thoroughly cooked Nor should it or any other flesh be fed to dogs or other animals unless it l,
 been so cooked. Dogs and other ami mals should not be allowed to enter pig pens. or other places where the larve of the tape worm may have been deposited. In event of a human becoming the bearer of tape-worm, 1t should be understood that the evac- uations, and matters thrown from the stomach. may contain the tape-worm egg, accordingly let such material be destroyed or otherwise properly cared for. It is because of more general knowledge of the foregoing facts, and careful following out of the indica- tions which they present, that tape worm in man and measles in the pig, are becoming less common. If tho control of our markets could be in- trusted to competent inspectors, this and like diseases would speedily disap- pear Farm and Home
