TWELVE MILLION
DOLLARS YEARLY
Hog Cholera is Costing That Much to
the Farmers of
Iowa.

,AMES, Iowa, Nov. Hog cholera
is costing Iowa farmers not less than
$12,000,00O this year and perhaps
several millions more.
Director w. ]. Kennedy of the ex
tension department of Iowa State col
llege gives those figures as a conserva.
tive estimate of the cost of this vir,l-
lent disease. 1T is to be found every
where in the state.'' he says. Il have
visited all districts and / have found
that in community after community 25
per cent of the hogs have been af.
flicted. think it is safe to say that
million animals will have died in the
year from this cause. To put the low
est value on them, they are worth $12,-
100000 and most likely more"
To help meet this situation, the ex-
tension department of the college has
added a skilled veterinarian to its
staff, DR.. ]. d. Cline. and he will be-
gin his work in the field November L.
He will lecture at short courses, at
farmers institutes, at agricultural
club meetings and wherever else the
farmers of Iowa may want him. He
will speak on such subjects as hog
cholera and its prevention, contagious
abortion among live stock, the pro-
lection of live stock against other dis
eases and farm sanitation.
Iowa State college is the first in
stitution in the country to undertake
the education of the rank and file OF
farmers along veterinary lines. I'VE
can't reach III Of Iowa very soon with
one man. says Director Kennedy.
But we hope to reach a good many
thousands this year through Mr. Kline.
We hope to do more work along this
line as soon as circumstances will
permit. This whole question of pre-
vention of live stock disease is a big
question Of Iowa and means millions
of dollars annually. The state cannot
afford such losses as 1t now suffers
and it must arouse to stop them
