HOW CHOLERA SPREADS.

Starkville, Miss, Sept.S.-An old
theory concerning the spread oi
the germs of cholera among hogs
has been exploded here By the cx.
perments Of DR.. E. X. LLOYD, who
: N charge II the live stock de-
naltment uf the Agricultural and
Mechanical College.
Ii has always been the belief of
noL raisers that the germs of cho.-
era travelled through the air. DR..
Iloyd'S experiments have proven
that this belief or theory is un-
founded,
pr. Lloyd paced hogs afflicted
with cholera in screened pens.
Near The screened pens were op-
cn peus IN which sound hogs were
to@tined. All of the sound hogs
escaped the disease.
The experiments were carried
still further, and it was found that
the germs were conveyed from
the diseased hogs to the sound
hogs by rats, birds and lice,
lhe discovery is important news
to hog raisers, for it will enable
them to prevent the spread of
