MalleIn for Chambers.

We have on the highest veterinary
authority that the diagnostic agent
known as "mallein" is a sure test for
the existence of CHAMBERS in the horse
and mule. There is an article in the
American Veterinary Review by Pro.
lessor Nocard of Abort, in which he
begins a resume of the results of test
ing over 5000 horses with mallein and
closes by saying: From all that pre-
cedes it results that the systematic use
of mallein constitutes the surest, the
quickest and the least expensive means
to relieve the most seriously affected
center Of CHAMBERS" By the use Of this
agent CHAMBERS can be detected in its
earliest and mildest form, and it can
be clearly told whether a suspected
case is of CHAMBERS or of some less seri-
GUS disease Of the air passages. Cali
fornia veterinarians are now receiving
mallein from the Bureau Of Animal
Industry at Washington and are using
it under the. authority Of the boards of
supervisors in some counties. Every
facility should be given the horse own
ers for the application Of the test, to
the end that CHAMBERS may be stamped
out. We notice that the colony OF
Queensland gives notice that it will ap-
ply mallein and make its quarantine
against imported horses less severe

" KnlInr Cholera Germs.

Mr.. ]. c. Hanna, the well-knOwn
breeder of Poland-Chi hogs, takes
the position very positively that bury
ing the hogs that have died Of cholera
is merely storing up the germs of the
disease for future USE" and insists
that they should in all cases be burned.
The very destructive prevalence OF
cholera this fall makes it important
that methods of future protection shall
be efficient. and if IL be not sufficient
to bury the carcasses, the swine-grow-
ing public want to know 1t. The
Bureau of Animal Industry in Farmers
Bulletin No. "a. issued for the express
purpose of giving the farmers of the
country practical information as to just
what they should do to prevent out
breaks of the disease and its continued
propagation when it has once broken
out, says that if any hogs die their car
casses should be Immediately burned
or deeply buried and the places where
they have lain or the ground over which
they have been dragged should be dis
infected with carbolic acid or lime.
The laws Of the various states also re-
quire that cafcasses of dead hogs shall
be burned Or buried. The Iowa statute
requires burial of two feet. The Kan
sas statute requires burial, and Secre-
tary Coburn, Of the Kansas State Board
OF Agriculture, in recently calling at
tention to the necessity for compliance
with the statute, says that burial at
once not less than three feet is the
safest and most practical way to dis
pose Of" the carcasses. The laws OF
other states doubtless contain the same
provision, and all seem to be based
upon the belief that if the carcasses be
bur!e'l, the germs will die before they
nave time to work to the surface. Now,
II this be untrue, and if the burial OF
the carcasses is only storing the germs
up for future use," the swine-growing
public ought to know it. Burning is GER
tainly an efficient remedy. There can
be no question when this course Is
pursued about the destruction Of the
germs; but there are objections to
burning, part of them founded upon
scarcity of fuel and part Of them upon
the objections of the community to the
stencil and foul smoke which arise
from the imperfect methods of crema-
ton practicable on the farm. Still, If
burning is essential to the destruction
of the germs, burning it ought to be.
And here is one of the points to which
we have been urging the organized at
tention Of breeding associations. Are
the laws which provide for the burial
Of carcasses adequate to the prevention
of the spread of disease? If not, then
that clause should be amended out Of
the law. The statutes all need to be
improved in their executive features,
too. They are left to execute them
selves, and no human law will do that.
The systematic disinfection of cars and
the efficient prohibition Of all traffic
in diseased animals are absolutely es-
sential to the preservation of the swine
industry, and those engaged in it
should move and move in force

Keep Up the Quality.-It is of the
utmost importance that we maintain
the quality of our live stock, and the
only way to do this is to strive hard to
improve it. Good beef never lacks de-
mand either at home or abroad. In
fact, it is potent influence in creating
that fellow feeling which makes a
mortal wondrous kind" The Britisher
has warm spot in his heart for good
bit of American roast, though he may
not tell about it, and the American
epicure keenly relishes bit Of English
mutton, well prepared, though he may
not tell about 1t, either. Our export
trade in live stock and meats has
reached enormous proportions. Our
products, however, have to stand sharp
competition in the worlds markets,
and in order to hold our own we have
got to give close attention to the
healthiness of our live stock and to it,
quality.
