by F. e. Balmer, Supervisor of County
Agents and M. E. Harrison, Secretary
of the West Central Minnesota De.
velopment Association. It is financed
by the latter organization
The plan in each county consists OF
the following main points:
First: The county agent represent.
ing the University, the federal gov.
eminent, the development association
and the people of his county, will be
in active charge of the hog cholera
control work. He will be assisted by
q committee of the county organiza.
ton, by local sectional committees, by
farmers clubs, other organizations
and individuals.
Second: A county wide hog census
and survey from which it will be pos.
their condition, whether or not they
had cholera last year, have it now,
are in an infected territory, whether
the hog owners intend to vaccinate
their herds, etc., is being taken. The
information will be filed with the
county agents and reported to the as
sociation Office.
Third: AS soon as the facts have
been thus gathered, the real work
will begin. Veterinary service will
be arranged for, flying relief squad
organized, serum and virus, bought in
large quantities and at a low figure,
will be in the county depots ready
for instant use and the germ that es-
capes will have Ito 60 some."

Central plan will be gained from the

Huerta but she has rebels galore and
her western barn yards are about to

to arms has been sounded by the

district the forces of better farming,
are being modified for campaign
Of determination. The troops that
will march under the serum banner
will be far out-numbered by their
enemies, the hog cholera germs, but
General Good; commanding the Fed
erals, predict sweeping victory.
In other words the people of West
Central Minnesota are determined not
to permit repetition of last years
