nNE of the controlling factors in swine pro-
~ duction in every state in the last few years
has been the dreaded scourge of hog chol-
In Iowa last year the loss estimated at
between $4,000 and $4,000, and the state and
national authorities making strenuous fight
to prevent the spread of this disease for,
doubt the loss from hog cholera is one of the
controlling factors in the high cost of living
Kentucky has been more fortunate and the loss
this year WILL in ali probability, be less than last
year. This does not mean that Kentucky has not
suffered a preventabe loss through the ravages
of this disease. The outbreaks this fall have
been mostly confined to the mountain counties
in Kentucky, but the infection is we'll scattered
in every county of the state. In the mountain
territory it has been very hard to control as a
comparatively small quantity of protective
rum was used, and practically no precautions
garding the destruction of carcasses were OBJ
served
The value of serum preventive of hog
cholera is generally known throughout the state
as evidenced by the demand for serum by the
farmers and for immune sires and dams in diff
ferent herds. In Kentucky during the year 1911
approximately 5000 hogs were vaccinated in
1912 1900, and during the first eleven months
of 1913 $4,000 hogs were inoculated with
The county agents have brought the problem
of hog cholera eradication to the attention of the
farmer in many instances and through the mi
tiative of these men great service has been rem
dered the farmers in the saving of many herds.
Heretofore when a farmer had outbreak of
hog cholera, he was forced to discontinue feed
ing or raising hogs for six months to year. At
present this is not necessary as he restock

agent has served as a medium through which the

Station is providing for more immune hogs in
Kentucky by producing approximately each week

The Combination Method.

The combination method consists in first using
alone followed by the injection of serum
and virus in ten twelve days. This method
has the advantage of preparing the animal for the
simultaneous treatment. 1t should be used
especially in valuable herds where the loss of one
two animals would more than pay the entire
cost of the vaccination. This method will not
take the place of proper sanitary precautions or
correct any other ailment of swine, but merely
insures greater protection subsequent to the in
oculation.
Specific information on this subject will be
gladly furnished on request. Write for bulletin

Serum Simultaneous Method.

This method consists in injecting the same
amount of serum recommended in the Serum
Alone Method, but in addition a small amount
of hog cholera virus, (blood of a hog suffering
from cholera), is injected, before the hog is re-
leased, in the opposite thigh opposite side OF
the neck from which the serum was injected
Severe transitory effects may follow the Of
this method and occasionally a very suscepti-
bic pig develops the disease from the inocula-
ton and dies. The average loss is about or
two per cent. Hogs vaccinated by this method
immune to the disease of cholera from six
months to life; usually for life. Hogs to be
treated by this method must be in the pink Of
condition irregular results will follow

rum is sold to the farmers of this state at ap-
the cost of production which is one
cent per cubic centmeter Every farmer should
favor efficient laws controlling the spread
of this disease, and the hearty cooperation of
all interested is essential in the enforcement of
the law already existing as quoted herewith:
|. That in all cases where pig shoat
or hog shall die of the disease commonly
called Hog Cholera" or any other dis
ease, it shall be the duty of the owner or
of such pig, shoat or hog, or the
person or persons having the care and
custody of same having knowledge of
the fact upon receiving notice there
Of to the carcass of same to be
burned within twelve hours or securely
buried two and one-half feet deep.
2 Any person or persons failing
and refusing to comply with the above
provisions shall be deemed guilty of
misdemeanor, and, upon conviction there
of, shall be fined sum of not less than
ten nor more than fifty dollars
Approved by the Governor March
l4th, 1912
The burying of hogs that have died of chol-
era is dangerous practice and should be dis
couraged Vrulent outbreaks of hog cholera
have developed from carcasses that have been
buried for several years, therefore, the man who
bures cholera hogs on his farm is in constant
danger of hog cholera. Burning is greatly to be
preferred.
There is no reason why hog cholera can not
be eradicated from this state in a reasonable
length of time if proper precautions OBJ
served by the men interested in swine production.
We should not be satisfied to vaccinate and save
individual herds here and there and allow the
infection to live thrive and scatter adjacent
farms. Our aim should be the ultimate eradi-
cation of this deadly virus from every farm in the
state The Experiment Station is fully equipped
to do valuable work along this line, and is Of
fering assistance and advice to all farmers of
the state.

Serum Alone Method.

AS the name suggests this method consists
in injecting alone into the animal. Hog
cholera not possibly be introduced or trans
mitted by serum alone. This method immunizes
hogs from few weeks to two months and is
best for suspicious or infected herds
