HOG CHOLERA.

A correspondent writes: Gould
you give me anything that will prevent
hog cholera, or that we could use as a
cure2 Great numbers of hogs are dying
here with it daily. Please tell me if
there is any remedy or even a proven
tive"
The answer to this in sui stance was:
There r preventive measures which
may be used and which may ward off
the disease in a large number of cases.
Indeed, some breeders claim to be able
to cure cholera if they can get to the
animals before the appetite is gone, but
not after food is refused. This remedy
or preventive is carbofic acid. How
little will protect, or how much the
patient can bear I am not informed,
but 10 drops would be a dose for an
adult and less for younger swine.
The better way to feed and admins
ter medicine with food would be to
prepare all food Immediately before
feeding, stir in as much medic ne as
needed for the pigs being fed. Then
clean up and disinfect ~afterward. Clean
up all foul places to which pigs have
access. Keep sleeping places warm
and dry. Try to prevent buzzards
from visiting pig runs and feeding
places. Bury the dead, or better Gre
mate dead bodies, and disinfect with
carbolic or biChloride solutions or with
g. cheap solution made by ~suspending
a coarse bag containing 90 pounds cop
peras, (sulphate of iron in a barrel of
soft water. After a little time the solu-
ton can be used as wanted and more
water added until the copperas is gone
from the bag.
The health of the pig may be pro
noted by keeping a mix ture, made as
follows. where the pigs can get it at
will: I peck hard wood ashes; 1 pint
salt, 1 peck charcoal. This recipe might
be extended by adding ] ID sulphur, ]
black anthony and 2 lbs. sulphate of
iron, pulverized.
Great depend nee should be placed
on prompt destruction of dead bodies
and proper disinfection Immediately
afterward, accompanied by the admin
istratiOn of carbolic acid with this mix
ture kept where pigs can eat it if they
are inclined to do so.-F. b. Emeru,

=GRRRN COOKS EXPERIENCE.

In 1849 Mr.. Green Cook left his
fatherin-law's two-room log house in
the centre of a 500 acr most poorly de-
veloped farm, in Nash county, N. c.,
to seek his fortune in the California
gold fields. Six months later gold mug
gets were a~ccidently discovered stick
ing in the mud mortar with which this
Nash county house was ''chincked, ="
and within three years 81, OOO, 900 were
taken from the immediate surrounding

longed to Mr.. John Ports, was sold by
him for a mere song, the purchasers
mining it and securing the heavy gold
find, and this daughters husband, Mr..
Cook, returned from California six
years later with just $500 to show for
those years labor.

DIRECTIONS FOR CHEESE MAX
ING.

Correspondence Of the Progressive Farmer.
Can you tell me through your paper
the best way to make cheese and give
the details of the process9 Times are
hard and we want to produce more at
home. S. Fl. G..
Lemay, N. @.
Cheese making is an art that is
learned by experience. There are many
details in which we do not profess to
be an expert, hence to tell the 'best"
way may be an impossibility with uq.
There are as many variations and little
differences In making cheese as there
Ire makers and different varieties of
cheese. In order to make good cheese
on the farm, a good textbook should
be carefully studied, unless you can
secure the services of some one who
has had experience to teach a member
of the family in this work. In this
case the text book should not be neg
lected, but every advantage taken with
it and the dairy press, to master the
D0S446SSs 1u6 hESI 4CHOASASO
apparatus to handle the milk and
cheese. and then good clean milk.
APPARATUS FOR CHEESE MAKING ON
FARMS.
The Georgia Experiment Station mas
published an attractive list of articles
with which a dairyman a begin to
make cheese with 20 COWS. If he has
no thermometer he will need one or
two, and perhaps some other small ar
ticles. This list is compared with one
from a western supply house and prices
of nearly the same articles r taken
from another catalogue which will serve
to show catalogue values and give
those desiring to go into cheese making
an idea of the apparatus and its cost.
Readers must bear in mind that the
first column of prices is met" or "cost"
while the other two are subject to lib
eral discounts. The cost for cash would
doubtless be near $50 and $40, while ad-
dition of COWS, erator and Babcock
tester with thermometer to the Georgia
list would raise the amount to near $40:

THE CAUSE OF SMALL EGGS.

The steady improvement in the grade
of poultry kept by farmers has resulted
in the Increased size of eggs. This diff
ference is so marked that the eggs pro-
duced in the North always command
in the markets a higher price than
those from the South, where the i'm
proved breeds have been more slowly
introduced. In that section the under
size of poultry and eggs it doubtless
due chiefly to the lack of new blood.
The facilitating effect of the heat is
sometimes given as the explanation,
but the true one is rather the lack of
care and proper breeding, the indirect
result of the climate, which, by per
mitting. the birds to forage all the year
round, relieves the owner of much
trouble, but at the same time checks
his interests in their best development.

Cheese can be made with much less
array, however. A good clean tin YES
sci as a new wash boiler in which to
warm up the milk a hoop pressing a
knife with which to cut the curd can
be made with a broad thin blade of
wood. For a press a few blocks, a nail
cask full of stones, a lever with one
end engaged under a cleat nailed to the
house or barn and the weight hung on
the other end.
The beginner will need to buy cloth
for bandages and probably had better
use rennet extract which can be had of
d. H. BurrelI, Little Falls, N. Y. This
will be simpler and give more uniform
results than home prepared rennets.
Before beginning to make cheese s.
III. G.. or any other reader will do well
to invest in a dairy paper and a book
or two on the process which cannot be
treated so fully in a newspaper article
as it should for him to make cheese
successfully by the directions given.
A very useful little manual is J. II,
Monrad's "a. B. @. in cheese making, u
price 25 cents. This can be had from
the author j. II, Monrad, Winnethe,
ILL.,, and for 81 additional he will send
the monthly National DGirymGn.
These will give much information
which cannot be obtained from any
other than an expert specialist.
The process in brief is, for a farm
dairy to carefully strain the evening"
milk into deep cans and set in colo
water until morning. Skim the even
ing's milk and take some milk will
the cream taking two fifths to one
fourth of the milk next morning
Strain the mornings milk, after weigh
ing it, into the cheese. Weigh the re
mainder of the evenings milk and add
to the mornings milk. Now take tn
temperature. Suppose there were A

STOCK ITEMS.

The American sheep, like other prod
lots of the farm, has to compete with
the cheap lands and cheap labor of
countries like Australia.
When a farmer raises his horses he
knows their disposition, constitution
and capacity. 1t is the proper way to
get good, sound, serviceable horses on
the farm.
For o in calves, a raw egg
broken into their milk is the most
~effectual remedy. A piece of rennet
soaked in milk is also good, but we
prefer the raw egg.
During the first few weeks of a Calls
existence be very careful and not over
feed. Better err on the side of feeding
too little, and many times it will save
you much trouble.
1t is said that eight drops of ~tincture
of aconite dropped on a piece of bread
and mixed with the food at night, and
next morning four drops more given in
the same manner, will sometimes cure
garget in COWS.
The corn raised especially for sheep
should be planted in drills, three and
half feet apart, and about six inches
in the drill. 1t will ear sufficiently,
and should be shocked when the ear is
