Diseases Of Hogs

WHENEVER and wherever hog ehol-
~ era prevails all other epidemics to
which swine are subject arc apt to be
classified as hog cholera. Hers is an
incident that took place in VIII county,
III, which is ease in point. The same
is related by the Farmers Review as
illustrating the value Of county ad-
wiser:
One day hurry up call was received
from a farmer whose hogs were dying
from supposed cholera. Of 300 head bit
50 were left, and the external appear
anee of these did not indicate cholera.

e well organized campaign to de-
lude farmers throughout the
country into buying an alleged cure for
hog cholera, under the impression that
this has been Investigated and approved
by the United States Government, has
reached the Department of Agriculture.
Articles praising this medicine, Bene-
tod by name, arc being sent out wide
spread to newspapers. These articles
arc so worded that it appears as if the
Department of Agriculture had re-
ceived reports from the State Of Mime
sofa showing that the medicine had
proved most beneficial.
As matter of fact, the one report
received by the Department was an un-
official and unsolicited statement sent
presumably from the promoters them
selves
The department attaches no impor-
tancs whatsoever to this statement. 1t
has no reason to believe in the eff
cheney of any proprietary cure for hog
cholera and docs no! recommend any.
Under certain conditions it urges farm
ers to protect their stock with anti
hog cholera serum, but that is all.
In connection with this attempt it
may be said that the medicine, which
is now put forward as good for hogs,
was advertised some time ago as a
means Of killing tuberculosis, typhoid
and cancer germs, according to an
article Published in the Journal of the
American Medical Association. At that
time it was asserted that the army was
interested in it. As a matter of fact,
the army WIS no more interested then
than the Department of Agriculture Is
no@.
In view Of the evidence that the
attempt to erea4s this false impres-
SION is persistent and widespread, all
hog owners are warned to communicate
with the United States authorities be-
fure accepting as truo any statement
that the government recommends any
treatment other than the serum already
mentioned

contribute to a bad physical condition,
which makes pigs susceptible to any dis

The Virginia experiment station has
carried on an extended trial of feeding
hogs on two diets, corn and digestive
tankage and corn and skim milk, with
the result that the latter shows slight
advantage over the former, principally
because of the appetizing quality and
added moisture of the skim milk. On
commercial basis very little differ
