REPORT MUCH HOG
CHOLERA IN STATE
DR., Hadley of Agricultural Col
lege Gives Conditions.
SERUM SUPPLY INADEQUATE
Manufacture of Preventative at Uni
versitY Unable to Keep Pace With
Demands = No Danger to HUI /
Beings from Disease.

Madison. There is more hog chol-
era in the state of Wisconsin than
there has been for years. This dec
laration made by DR.. F. B. Hadley of
the Wisconsin College of Agriculture
is based on reports received from all
sections of the state. Last May the
college began to manufacture anti
serum for the prevention of hog chol-
era. The demand now far exceeds
the supply.
There is no danger to humans
from this disease" said DR.. Hadley.
In my experience as United States
government official inspecting chol-
era, ] cannot say that l have known
of single case where a human be-
ing has been affected"
DR.. Hadley said, that the disease
could be prevented, but that cholera
cannot be cured after the hog has be-
come seriously ILL., Hogs are made
immune from the disease by injec-
ton of an anti-serum composed of
the blood of healthy pigs which have
d
This blood is obtained by cutting off
the end of the pigs tail until by
successive bleedings no more of the
tail remains. The pig is then killed
to get the last ounce of blood. En-
ough blood can be obtained from a
pig to treat about 400 hogs that
weigh less than 100 pounds each.
At the regular commercial rate for
anti-serum, enough blood from a pig
can be sold to realize $3.50.
Among the things first noted in
an outbreak of hog cholera is the re-
fusal of feed by a number of hogs, !"
said DIR. Hadley. "They have chills
and are depressed, stiff and sore;
there is a tendency for them to hide
in the bedding. A short, hacking
cough will frequently be noted. In
most cases hog cholera runs a rapid
course, ending in death about two
weeks after exposure"

Neenah.-Whether John Young,

own confession is guilty of robbing
the Northern Pacific train in Buffalo,
n. d., July 8, aroused such a differ

hours to agree on a verdict They

Railroad officials say the disagree

as they will not be compelled to pay
the reward of $4,000 to Burr until
he proves the man in the penitentiary

NEGRO is HELD FOR MURDER
Charged With Shooting Woman Near
Tony---Two Were Neighbors
and QuarreIed Over Hog.

Tony.--Ira Broadly, a negro, was
arrested charged with the murder of
Estella Hill. The examination was
adjourned to Dec. 6. Broadly was
a neighbor of the Hills, and the
authorities say that circumstances
point to his guilt.
Mrs. Hill was found uead in her
yard with a shotgun wound in her
body. She was killed instantly. De-
velopments show that a 10-gauge
shotgun was used. Broadly is said
to be the only neighbor that has that
size gun.
There was evidence at the coron-
er's inquest of a dispute between
them over a hog owned by Broadly
and cared for by Mrs. Hill.

Ne know of some instances where
common lath has been used, but it
seems to us better to use the lath made
from one-half-inch material
The 2x4's will not need any sort Of
iron hoops. The inside sheeting and
the beveled lath are strong enough to
resist all lateral pressure. If inch
lumber is used and lath as suggest

outside some wooden hoops three feet
apart. These hoops may be nailed to

The capacity of the silo is sufficient
for 15 milk cows. We believe that a

MAY COLLECT DRINK BILLS.
Wisconsin Saloonkeepers Viii Ask
Legislature to Pass New Law
at the Next Session.

Milwaukee. - Wisconsin saloon
keepers intend to ask the next legis-
lature for the right to proceed with
punishment action against delin-
quent customers. according to John
Langan, president of the Wisconsin
Retail Liquor Dealers association.
Mr.. Langan states that the execu-
tive committee of the state associa-
ton has decided to ask the legisla-
ture to enact such a law, and also
to pass a bill investing the license
granted by any municipality in the
saloonkeeper himself, and not in the
building in which he conducts a sa-
loon, to make it possible for the pro-
prietor to move, should he so desire,
without asking for a new license.
In regard to punishment proceed
ings, President Langan holds that
the liquor business is as legitimate
as any other, and that the saloon
keeper should have as much right to
collect his bills under the law as a
grocer or butcher. Another meeting
will be held on December 4.
