A CURE FOR HOG CHOLERA.
1t Ia Treatment by IBOcuIatIOn, and "a as
Proved Remarkably successful.

1t Is a Treatment by incubation, and "a as
Proved Remarkably successful.
Medical science has wrought wonders
in the treatment of all kinds of diseaes
in the past few years, ana at no time in
the history of medicine have strides in
that line been so swift as at this day.
Though Brown. Squads Elixer of Life
might not have been as successful in
abOlishing the last great enemy as many
of US might have desired great deal
has been accomplished along other lines
to minimize the fatility of different dis
eases. Up to a very short while ago the
death rate from diphtheria among chill
dren was alarming to parents, but medi-
cal science has discovered a remedy for
that disease in anti-toxine, which the
doctors say is an almost infallible cure.
Ii is treatment by incubation, as vac
cine is used to prevent the small pox.
Experiments along this same line for
the cure of hog cholera have recently
been made by Or. D. E. Salmon, chief of
the bureau of animal industry and the
results of these experiments have been
so satisfactory as to justify the belief
that the greatest drawback to hog rails
ing will be, in large measure, removed.
The latest experiment with the serum
treatment comprised sever teen droves,
or total of about ore thousand hogs,
located in different sections. Of the
hogs that were given this treatment ITO
died, or less than 20 out of 100 diseased
animals. On the other hand, about
an equal number of hogs in drOves in
different sections were not treated with
the serum remed and over 800 of them
died, showing loss of about 80 hogs
out of 100 diseased. In speaking of the
new treatment DIR. Salmon has said:
There is no question of the effective
ness of the serum treatment. Our oper-
ations have been viewed with skepticsm,
but the serum treatment is no longer an
experiment. 1t is proved success, and
undoubtedly will save to the farmers of
the United States millions of dollars
every year."
The cholera serum is procured by
keeping apart for treatment an animal
horse or a cow-and injecting into its
blood a small amount of the blood of a
cholera diseased hog. This will sicken
the subject, but it will recover, when
another dose will be administered, and
SD on time after time until its blood
becomes so impregnated as to render
it practically cholera proof. Then
this blood is let and the clot drawn off,
leaving the thin yeliowish portion,
which is the serum. This is used to
inject into the diseased hogs and Oper-
ates to render them likewise cholera
proof, or even cures them of the disease
after it has developed.
This remedy might be tried in this
section by parties whose hogs have chol-
era. If 1T does what is claimed for it, it
will be boon to the farmers and hog
raisers. There is as much philosophy in
the treatment as there is in vacciDe for
small pox or anti-toxine for diptheria.

AN EMPTY TREASURY.

1t has been discovered that the state
treasury is vacuum. 1t is not only
empty, but bonds will have to be issued
to cover deficit. The legislature has
taken cognIzance of this surprising
state of affairs, and will have an inves-
tigation by aIjoint committee for the
purpose of ascertaining the states
true financial condition before making
any of the usual appropriations.
Governor Atkinson's administration
closed with a debt of a half nils
lion dollars confronting the tax
payers of Georgia, and while there is
nothing in theldeficit of discredit-
able nature still it shows the lOOse>
ness of past legislation, and in that
way animadverts on the business sue
cess of an administration that did not
inyeigh against a growing evil that
has been allowed to go uncorrected
until now the deficiency has reached the
enormous sum of half million dollars,
and, according to Treasurer Speer,
will approximate million dollars by
the first of next July
1t will be remembered that Govern
or Atkinson went to New York some
time ago and negotiated a loan OF
100000 to supply the deficiency in the
school fund. At time so much was
said IN the press about Georgia's ex-
cellent credit, as shown in the low rate
Of interest secured, that the people
never stopped to consider that the
treasury was empty. In addition to
this, $780, has been borrowed from
other funds for the deficiency in the
school fund from year to year, and the
New York loan represents in fact only
one half the debt accumulated.
This system of borrowing or taking
has been carried on since 1895 under
the direction of the legislature, which
seemed not to consider the inevitable
elimination, and the condition pre-
sents itself that something radical
must be done, and done at once,
The common school fund draws ST..
100000 annually from the state anC
nearly 81 100000 is expended for pen
slonS, and the suggestion to cut these
enormous appropriations seems Ito be
urgently demanded. 1t is SAID that
the Legislators lack the moral courage
TO put the knife to these terrific appro.
priations, as they are afraid it would
not be appreciated by their constitu-
ents and might interfere with their no.
litical aspirations.
AT any rate, bonds Will have to be
issued to cover this deficit of 81 900 .OOC
which will exist, according to Treas.
urer Speer,' on Jaly next, or the sys-
TEN of kitlng and borrowing that has
been in vogue the past four years will
have to be continued.

ARMY To BE SLOW IN FORMING.
War Department Officials Fear There Nav
BE Much Delay.

Washington, April 25.-Those who
are looking for the assembling of a
great volunteer army on the gulf coast
by the latter part OF next week will
probably be disappointed as to time.
Experienced officers here do not think
many Of the volunteer soldiers will
reach the gulf coast camp grounds be-
fore ten or twelve days and most like
ly 1t will be three weeks before the
large army required will be in camp.
One week ago Friday the orders were
signed for the mobilization of the, stand
ing army. Not more than half of the
troops being moved have reached their
destination. That is of the nearly 20,-
geo moving fewer than 10000 have ar
rived. The war department officers do
not expect that as good time can be
made by the volunteers as has been
made by the regular army soldiers. The
reports from the adjutant general from
several of the states show that the
arms and equipment are in such bad
condition that assistance will have to
be received from the war department
before the troops can be sent to the
front
The volunteer army will not arrive at
the encampment designated in the same
orderly manner. The officials make no
concealment Of the fact that 1T will take
quite length of time to form these
volunteers into an effective army.

Washington, April 25.-Secretary Long

spent an hour with the president. The
information deeply interested President
Mckinley, and the two discussed the
possibility of bombardment being un-
expectedly precipitated. Arrangements
have been made to obtain information
with the least possible delay. Dispatch
boels will be sent from the fleet when
ever there is news of Importance.

MAY TRY TO SINK THE OREGON.
Spanish Torpedo Boat Preparing to Leave
Buenos Ayres.

Spanish Torpedo Boat Preparing to Leave
Buenos Ayres.
Buenos Ayres, April 25.-The Spanish
torpedo gunboats Temerario is expect
ed to leave here. 1t is believed 1t is to
attack the United States battleship
Oregon and the United States gunboat
Marietta, which left Valparaiso on
Monday last for Montevideo.
The Oregon and Marietta, at a rough
estimate, have about 5000 miles steam
ing between Valparaiso and Monte
video. The battleship will necessarily
keep company with the gunboat, as the
latter is better able, owing to the quick
er manner in which ii can be handled,
to successfully engage the Spanish tor
pedo gunboat Temerario, which has a
speed Of twenty knots, against the six
teen knots speed credited to the Ore
gon. The Marietta has a speed Of
about twelve knots. Therefore the Or
egon should take from twelve to thir-
teen days in making the trip from VAL
paraiso to Montevideo. AS ii left VAL
paraiso on Monday last, the Oregon
with it's consort Is now nearing Cape
Horn from the Pacific side.
Washington, April 25.-The navy de-
partment is fully aware of the where
abouts of the battleship Oregon and
the gunboat Marietta, but for pruden-
tial reasons the officials positively de-
cline to say where the vessels are.
whether or not they have been ordered
10 return to San Francisco. or in fact,
to make any statement respecting them
further than that they have no appre-
hension for their safety. 1t is known
that the department has taken steps
to have the commander of the Oregon
met by friends and warned of the out
break of hostlities and of the presence
of the Spanish torpedo gunboat Teme-
rario at Buenos Ayres in the path of
the warship on her way to the north
Atlantic station.
