TO PREVENT HOG CHOLERA.
Gratifying Results From the Use OF
Anti.Toxlne Serum.

Gratifying Results From the Use of
Anti-Toxlne Serum.
Washington. Jan. 1.-THE Chief Of,
the bureau Of animal industry. DIR. D.
i. Salmon. has submitted to Secretary
Wilson a report upon the experiments
made in the treatment of hogs for hog
cholera with anti-toxine serum. This
serum is made upon the same principle
as the anti-toxine of diphtheria. 1t was
last fall tested in Page county. Iowa,
on several herds of swine containing
altogether 27S animals, and 39sdied out
of 2i4 animals treated, OF which IS were
sick. Consequently 1913 per cent of the
animals in these herds were saved OF
untreated herds kept under observa-
ton during the period referred to about
IS per cent of the animals died.
Secretary Wilson remarked that un-
doubleday the results reported by DIR.
Salmon were most encouraging to hog
raisers. The cost of the serum, said
the secretary. Is but ten cents per head
OF animals treated, only one dose being
required, and doubtless in course of
time this light cost may be still fur
Their reduced. He said further:
1.-THE losses from hog chole1 are SO
enormous, and have weighed 10 heavily
for years upon the farmers, That ! cam
not imagine that congress will for a
moment hesitate to make the appro-
priations necessary to carry on this
work thoroughly. 1t will be a great
mistake. now that so great discovery
seems to have been made, not to finish
the work by giving 1t thorough an
extensive test"

mills there will undoubtedly follow.
The Lawrence mills are the last to come
into line. They employ about 1900
hands. The reduction in most of the
New England mills amounts either to

Civil Service.

Certain Democrats are great stlcklers
for adherence to civil service rules In the
appointment TO office In the National
Government, but In our municipal and
State offices, they cannot tolerate the con.
tinuanoe Of Republican that 1t is possible
10 remove The writer Of Democratic
Glasses in the Sunday Star, condemns the
deadlock IN the City Council because it
will lead to the continuance in office Of
the vaccine physicians for three years more
The plea Is not that the physicians are not
competent, but that they are Republicans
Continuing the writer says: When the
people elected the present majority Of tho
members Of Council, they did SO because
they were Democrats and the people want
ed Democratic officials. The Democrats Of
Council will certainly not be doing their
duty to their constituents II they let the
present Republican office holders contiue
tohold their places"
Republicans may properly retort: when
the Republicans elected VIM. Mckinley
President, they expected him to turu out
q great many Democratic office holders
and appoint Republicans in their places
and he will not be doing his duty should
he fail to do So

Donnell, special agent of the state de-
partment of agriculture, has submitted
to Secretary Edge report covering an
analysis of $50 samples of milk selected

be made of the milk supplies in all the

much better than that Of Pittsburg.
