may be cited that yesterday the top Of

there were no hogs received here which

some time. and indicates if anything that
the farmer. breeder. and shipper will as
suredly net more money by consigning

Chicago yesterday suffered decline of
5 cents. This was caused mainly by a d.
minished demand for hogs from eastern
shippers, and the consequent reduction OF
outside competition This naturally plac-
ed the local packers in a position 70 dc

again heavy. There were six cars shipped

HOG CHOLERA CURED
BY the Serum Treatment, No
Longer an Experiment
UNCLE SANS HOG DOCTOR
Tells How the Remedy Ills
Prepared and Used.
UNCLE SANS HOG DOCTOR

Washington, Oct z7.-During the past
two years the department Of agriculture
has conducted series OF experiments in
the use Of q serum as remedy for hogs
affected by cholera, or swine plague. The
experiments were conducted by Dr.. D. Z.
Salmon. chief Of the bureau Of animal in
dustry. and the results were -,ninently
satisfactory, proving ~ the dreaded
disease can be successfully treated easily
and insxpensively.
The losses suffered by the farmers OF
the United States annually firm hog
chodera aggregate an enormous us-n- Ia
Iowa alone during 1856 II is estimated
that the hog raisers lost through the raw
ages of the disease SIS. 90. 0l1. Scores u
remedies have been tried but nothing
even approx!ulating remedy for the dis
ease has ever been discovered until the
department. Of agriculture began its ex-
perlments.
Last year the experiments were con-
Quoted in Page county, Iowa, the results
showing a loss OF only - per cent OF the
affected droves. This year the expert
ments have been extensive and far-reach-
ing. The bureau treated go hogs. Of
these 10 died. the number saved being 81
out OF every 100. The loss was only ls
per cent The animals comprised seven
teen droves and of these six droves los,
only one hog each. On the other hand.
l. 107 hogs in other droves were served and
not subjected 10 the serum treatment. OF
rhaSe S7a died showing a loss OF 70 < hogs
out of every loo.
Speaking Of the treatment, DR. Selmon
said:
There is no question about the effect
iveness of tbs serum treatment. Our op-
eratiOns have been viewed with skepu
cisn but the serum treatment for hog
cholera is no longer an experiment II IS
a proved success and will undoubtedly
save to the farmers of the United States
millions OF dollars every year"
The cholera serum is procured by keep
ing apart for treatment an anirnal-a
horse or a cow-and injecting into its
blood a small amount OF the blood Of
cholera diseased hog This will sicken
the subject. but he VIII recover. when
another dose will be administered. and so

becomes 50 inpregnated as 10 render him
practically cholera proof. Then his blood
IS let and the clot drawn off, leaving the
thin. yeIlowish portion. which IS the Sc
rum. This Is used TO inject into the dis
eased hogs and operates 10 render them
likewise cholera proof. or even cures

HOG MARKET STRONG
Good Supply and Active Trade
Quality Fair.
TOPS REST ON S3.42 ~
Cattle Market Steady With
Light Run.

The local hog market yesterday was Of
& varying nature. controlled by the quail
ity OF the hogs or sale entirely. II may
be said that in ali the wagon hogs were
generally sold weak 70 8 cents lower,
while the car lots went ar prices full stea-
6y and strong with Wednesdays avera &c
price The wagon trade was not heavy
In point Of receipts and not at all fancy
IN quality, very few small lots only ex-
oepted. AS for the car stuff there were
10 hogs receiped which on any market
anywhere would be classed or counted as
top hogs. In fact, all that can be said for
the run of car hogs is fair. with none Of
fered at all extra The average weight
was rs pounds for car hogs and this.
while not bad. is not especially fattering,
either. There were mixed hogs in. but
usually al cars sold straight, some few
being sorted Dold was the only buyer on
the market practically. and paid IN every
instance prices which were not only high
for the grades offered. but high with 9TH
er markets. The average weight was ten
pounds under that Of the day before. and
& IS a significant fact that this lower
weight was the same as Oh Tuesday. 235,
while the top was al just the same figure
and the bulk range also the same, show
ing that hogs Of equal worth will al all
times receive the same treatment when
ever they come il. The receipts yesterday
wre about 100 under those of Tuesday, and
just a few above Wednesday. II may be
sid that II was strong market yester-
day. and no hogs went at prices a single
point under what they could rightfully
command. Il is equally significant that
this market in face Of fairly good receipts
end on a par with those Of the day previ-
Gus should hold strong when Kansas City
with greatly diminished receipts went of
