GOOD RESULTS FROM SERUM
Treatment Given in the South Cutting
Down Loss from Hog Cholera.


Washington, ID. c., Oct. S.-Th'
treatment of hogs exposed to the risl
of contagion from hog cholera will
anti-hog cholera serum has saved al
but 2.27 per cent in the southern states
according to reports received by the
L. s. Department of agriculture from
local agents engaged in demonstra
ton work in this section.
These reports show that the county
inocu!ated, in the year ending June 80
1914. total of 1896 hogs that were
in good health at the time, but were
exposed to the disease. OF this mum,
Der only 7S7 died. This loss of 2.27
per cent is regarded as highly graft
| flying evidence of the value of the pre-.
ventive treatment with anti-hog chol-
era 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 fighting chance"
The results would seem, on the whole,
to have been satisfactory. Including
sick and well animals, a grand total
of 4l,974 hogs exposed to the disease
received the serum. OF these 1904
dia6 paroaptaoa nj Lose of
In considering these figures, scien-
lists point out that the work was done
under ordinary farm conditions, and
not by trained experts in laboratories.
In addition, very large number of
hogs were inoculated by veterinarians
or by farmers themselves. In these
cases no figures are available to show
the exact results of the treatment
Department experts also point opt,
however, that inoculation alone is not
sufficient and does not remove the ne
cessity for sanitary and other pre-
for example, hogs should be
iOh lOl Il lev udyS dlltl TIE 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 fol-
lowing formula, which has been used |
by local gents throughout the South
with considerable success, is suggest
ed by the Kentucky Experiment Sta
ton:
Santonin 21a grains; Areca nut, l
iram; Calomel, l grain; Sodium car
Donate, l dram.
This is a sufficient quantity for
each 100 pounds of live weight. The
lose should be given in slop in the
evening, after the hogs have been
without food for from IL to "a hours.
rhe following morning each hog
should receive tablespoonful of Ep-
som Salts.

all over tho State. doubtless, there are citi-
zens whose incomes are taxable. but who have
refrained from letting tho State officials gain
knowledge of the fact II happened SO last
year. and there is no doubt that IL is hap
pening so this year. though not so extern
siycly.
But something else happened last year.
Grand jnries met in many counties. and many
people suddenly remembered forgotten
sources of incomes; many citizens discovered
that they were richer than aware at the
time the returns were made. We are likely
to witness in the near future a repetition
OF history. with the difference that whereas
twelve months ago many delinqucnts were
given the benefit of the doubt and granted
immunity on payment OF taxes on overlook ed
incomes, this year punishments may be melted
out to a number of surprised individuals.
Dodgtng taxes is not so innocent an amuse-
ment in Virginia 1t once was.
Auditor Moore made some reputation less
than two years ago Nemesis of tax
dodgers. There is no evidence that he has
surrendered the role, that he will be less
diligent now In urging grand juries to find
out and bring 10 taw the dodgers If there
Is TO he any change In his methods. il should
De III the direction of StcrnncSs. rather than
OF leniency. If any once granted immunity
are found among those who have given IA lsc
returns. punishment should rest heavily
upon them. Those who have not before Of
Tended should not be treated always as first
Offenders. for they have the advantage of
the experience Of others They know that
the authorities of the State have determined
mat the State income taxes shall he paid. and
II they have not paid them. IT their returns
are incorrect. in few instances can ignorance
or good intention be pleaded. There are
fewer false returns for 1914 than for 1913
Example of how the law worKs should make
II certain that there will be fewer in 1915
than in 1914.
