The Inflated steamer was lying TO,
waiting for the fog to lift or the day

bow-on into her side. striking her
about midway of her length and

so badly was II ship damaged that
she sank rapidly accounting for the
heavy loss of lives AS soon as the

eris,ic LESSONS OF hog cholera.
The most reliable means of pro-
tecting hogs az inst hog cholera
is IN the use OF a. i-hog cholera
serum at the proper time. Farmers
are frequently not aware of the pro,
lection the State offers in such in
stances, and not infrequcntly we
have received communications in
dicating that the serum treatment
is not understood.
The loss of close to two million
dollars in Kentucky last year from
this disease warrants a careful study
of this disease by every farmer. In
order to talk to all parties interested
in this subject, demonstration will
be given every Monday morning at
the Kentucky Experiment Station.
Lexington, for those who wish to
famiiarize themselves with the use
of hog cholera serum.
So heavy have the demands fer
the serum been that equipment and
buildings have been erected to trip
lie the capacity of the laboratory.
An earnest effort is being made by
the Kentucky Agriculture Exper-
iment Station to completely eradi-
cate this disease. With effective
regulations controlling infected
herds and premises, together with
the hearty cooperation of the farm
ers, this can be accomplished.

Hog cholera is very prevalent
throughout the state of Kentucky,
especially in those counties most
devoted to hog raising. Every
farmer should employ the possible
methods to avoid the ravage of this
disease. Sanitary measures are of
the greatest importance and often,
if properly carried out, are sufficient
to avoid an outbreak of hog cholera.
1t Is true that the disease is most
prevalent in herds that are improp-
erly nourished, but hog cholera is a
specific disease caused by a specific
micro-organism. Attention and
care do not of themselves insure
protection against the disease.
Once present In the herd it spreads
to the healthy animals and results in
death of 10 to 100 per cent Of in
dividuals. The weakened hog will
more certainly die, and perfect sur
roundings and management are to
be desired, but this does::not confer
a positive immunity. All infectious
diseases require specific anti-toxin
to counteract the specific toxin; tina,
anti-hog cholera serum is not efficient
in controlling lock jaw. Mere health

The withdrawal of Dartmouth

board is a wholesome sign of an ap-

The board has done excellent SER

down a hard and fast rule of human
