Farmers Report Heavy Los

Farmers throughout Marion county
claim that they have suffered an ex-
ceptionally heavy loss during the
present warm season as result OF
diseases breaking out among their

hogs in the western part OF the county

sheep have spread with disastrous re-
suits. The farmers are unable to ac-
count for the spread OF the stock
diseases and consequently have been
unable to do little towards prevent.
