Brown, the boss stock buyers in the
county, have purchased a hundred
head of cholera hogs. punched them
together, and are practicing on them
with the Rex Hog Remedy. So far
they are meeting with good results,
having only lost small per cent,
most of those having died. being
practically dead when they were
brought in.
Reports of hog cholera are frequent
in this community and a great loss
is prevalent where the pestilence has
come to sway. That there is neglect
among the farmers who have suffered
loss of hogs by dying from cholera is
no doubt as such germs of disease
are said to be contracted in that the
hogs are fed and have to eat out of
their own filth that has been accumu-
lating for years. By all means the
hog pens should be kept clean and
the pigs therein be fed clean feed
and water. Thus it is that the cholera
is a benefit to swine breeders to en-
courage cleanliness for health and
the production of pure, clean, healthy
meat.
Last Saturday afternoon consider
able excitement was caused on our
streets by parties resisting arrest. It
appears that J. A. Peters was about
leaving town, and desired his sou,
Henry, to accompany him, who was
reluctant as to going. W. T. Post
happening along ventured the re-
mark that he had better go home.
This angered the boy, and after the
elapse Of few minutes ran after Mr.
Post, running against him and owing
to his disabled condition was knock
ed down, breaking his crutch. Frank
Mclean, U. S. deputy marshal, of
Adrian, happened along and attempt
ed to place the party under arrest
but was resisted and assistance was
rendered the boy by his father and
another disinterested party. The
sheriff was sent for and about the
time he arrived the offenders were
made aware that they were resisting
an officer and surrendered. They
were brought before Justice Hildreth
and fined $500. -.
