DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inf1amed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inffan1ed you can hear a
runbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Illumination can he taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in

GOOD RESULTS FROM
ANTI-HoG CHOLERA SERUM

Treatment Given by Demonstration
Agents in the South Cutting Down
the Loss From this Disease
Washington, Oct. 3.-The treat
ment of hogs exposed to the risks
of contageon form, hog cholera with
anti-hog cholera serum has saved all
but 2.278o in the Southern states &C
cording to reports received by the L.
IS. department OF agriculture from To-
cal agents engaged in demonstration
work in this section.
These reports show that the coun-
ty agents inoculated, in the year end
ing June 80, 1914, total of 1896
hogs that were in good health at the
time, but were exposed to the dis
ease. OF this number only 7S7 died.
This loss of 2.27% is regarded as
highly gratifying evidence of the val
ue of the preventive. treatment with
anti-hog cholera serum
although many authorities do not
recommend this treatment after the
hog is so sick that signs of the dis
ease are plainly visible, the agents
in many cases took a fighting
chance" The results would seem, on
the whole, to have been very satisfac-
tory. Including sick and we'll ami
mails, grand total of 41,974 hogs
exposed to the disease received the
o
centage of loss of 7.15.
In considering these figures, scien-
fists point out that the work was
done under ordinary farm conditions
and not by trained experts in 1abora-
tories. In addition very large num-
Der of hogs were inoculated by veter-
inarians or by the farmers them
selves. In these cases no figures are
available to show the exact results
of the treatment.
Department experts also point out,
however, that incubation alone is
not sufficient and does not remove
the necessity for sanitary and other
precautions; for example, hogs
should be fed for few days after
the treatment on cooling laxative
foods. They should be removed to
uninfected and clean pens where
there is plenty of shade, and care
should be taken to free them from
lice and worms Since many hogs
are worm infested, the following for
mula, which has been used by local
agents thruout the South with con-
siderable success, is suggested by the
Kentucky experiment station:
Santonin ? 15 garins, areca nut
dram, calomel / grain, sodium car
donate l dram.
This is a sufficient quantity for
each 100 pounds of live weight. The
dose should be given in slop in the
evening, after the hog has been with
out food for from II to "a hours. The
following morning each hog should
receive tablespoonful of Epson
salts.
