A Serious Epidemic.

The whole state of Kansas IL nov
suffering from the most serious cpl.
demic of hoy cholera tina, has ever
been known In the state, In spite Of
the hog cholera serum used In yacci.
nation and the long years Of exper.
fence In dealing with the disease.
The state live stock sanitary commits.
sioner j. now simply devotiny his
time TO determining how the disease
IL carried long distances, from one
farm TO another and from one count
10 another. II that could he deter.
mined 1t would only be a step to de.
wise some means to prevent It's
spread.
u Is estimated that more than a..
100000 has been lost by Kansas far
mers and stock raisers this fall
through hog cholera. The state vet
Urinary board has sent out warning
10 the farmers throughout the state,
urging that all cholera hogs he burn.
ed or buried to prevent the birds
from getting at their bodies. IL Is
believed the disease Is carried In some
cases 10y this agency. There Is no &C.
tual proof OF this, but IL Is said by
people who have watched that birds
will eat from the carcass Of hog
that has died Of cholera, they fly
away to some feed yard where there
Is no cholera and that In time the
disease breaks out there. Whether
or not the birds are responsible Is not
known, but II they are, the burning
or burying of the dead hogs will pre-.
vent the spread Of the disease by
that means. 1t Is possible that the
state will make an order repairing
that all hogs dying OF cholera be
burned or buried. Litter dropped
from a car In which there was chol-
era wiped out i've herds Of hogs at
Leloup. The hogs in the car were
dead and were being shipped to "A
soap factory In Kansas City.
That proved TO the investigators
that cholera may be transmitted on
straw or any other litter that may be-
blown from one place TO another, 1t
has also been determined that cholera
will remain with sheds and buildings
for long time after herd has been
wiped out. 1t also stays with a car.
Farmers at Salina lost their hogs be.
cause small bunch was shipped In a
car In which dead cholera hogs had
been shipped To a soap factory. The
hogs the farmers shipped were
healthy, but soon took the disease
and died, transmitting II to other
hogs In the vicinity. The disease
was In the car.
