WEATHER FAVORS
SPREAD OF HOG CHOLERA
Those Wishing To Protect Their Hogs
From This Disease Should Take
Precautions Now.


The season most favorable to the
spread of Hog Cholera is now at hand.
Every hog owner who wishes to pro-
tect his herd against loss from this
disease, should secure serum prompt.
ly and have it administered before any
sign Of contagion becomes evident
1t should be known that hog cholera
serum is not a cure, but preventa-
tive, and as such should be admins
tered before an outbreak is likely to
occur.
The cholera was SO prevalent last
year that the demand for the serum
was greater than either the State
Laboratory or the commercial labora-
tories throughout the country could
supply and their output In some cases
was bought up and contracted for
months in advance. Many hog raisers
in Maryland availed themselves of the
serum manufactured at the Expert
ment Station, and number of re-
ports have been returned from time
to time indicating satisfaction, par
ticularly where the serum was used
before the diseases had actually APP
peared in the herds.
The tested serum supplied by the
Experiment Station should be used at
the rate of IS &C. per 100 pounds of
live weight, the cost price being 2
cents per &C. or 10 cents for 100
pound hog. The serum must be admin
istered by or under the direction of
a licensed veterinarian or doctor Of
medicine. If you have any idea of pro-
tecting your hogs against cholera, have,
them attended to promptly. Do not
wait until some are taken sick and
the serum can do only partial good in
saving those still unexposed to the
disease. Write now to the Experiment
Station at College Park for full de-
scription of the disease and precau-
tons you should take.

In birds the normal excretions from
the kidneys, which are white In color
are discharged with excretions from
the bowels. II from any cause this in.
testinal excretion is stopped the kid!
pev excretions will be Yoided alone
and be white in color. This explains
why the white diarThoea is present as
p symptom Of several diseases.
There Is no sure method for diagnos.
ing these diseases outside the labora,
cory, but careful observer can come
close to the diagnosis by considering
the history of the case. To determine
whether or not the trouble Is bacillary
diarrhoea is most important. This form
of disease is transmitted through the
egg from the infected ovaries In the
Jnother hen Therefore, If the disease
occurs quite uniformly In all chicks
from certain dockn, no matter how they
are raised, bacillary white diarrhoea
may be suspected. IL on post-mortem
examination, the lungs are found spot.
ted. we have Q case Of aspergillosia
caused by mold organism.
Give close attention to correct incu.
baton. brooding, and feeding. In the
mold form (aspergillosig) prevent fur
ther outbreaks by steriliEing all feed
for the first few weeks. This can be
done BY feeding only cooked feeds OF
BY heating the dry feed In an oven.
Keep your brooders clean and disins
fected. Keep Matching eggs in clean
place.
For bacillary white diarrhoea, there
is no known cure. Sour milk or but.
ter milk is recommended. The best
policy is to renew the breeding stock
by getting eggs or stock from some
breeder whose flock is free from dis.
ease. Never breed from q bird that has
white diarrhoea.

Too many growers fail to realize the
value OF having stocky, healthy, vigora
1ous plants to transplant in the field.
THE seed should be sowed thinly in
Ifows four inches wide. The distance
apart OF the rows Will depend upon
the method of cultivating them. When
the plants are about two inches high,
thin them to about two inches apart,
being careful to leave only the strong,
vigorous plants. This gives the plants
plenty Of room to grow stocky, and
develop more extensive root system,
which enables them to Withstand
transplanting.
The seed bed should be fertile.
Avoid excessive applications of nitro.
gen. especially. Nitrate of Soda or Sui
plate Of Ammonia, because these ma.
terials tend to force a soft growth
Plants that are growing too rapidly
can be pinched back. This win start
the growth Of lateral branches. It is
recommended In cases Of extreme
growth, rather than as a corrective
Tor a neglected bed Of plants or an
undesirable condition In growth.
Many have experienced trouble
from the flea beetle. Do not dust the
plants with lime or other material, be.
cause it frequently injuries the young
seedlings. Spray the plants with
4-4-50 Bordeaux Mixture, to which has
been added Arsenate of Lead at the
rate Of 2 pounds to so gallons of
water. Keep the young seedlings GOV.
cred with this spray. It will keep off
the fiea beetle without injuring the
plants, and help to keep them clean
and healthy.
Have the seed bed thoroughly wet
when removing the plants, water by
hand few hours before If necessary.
Never pull" the plants. Loosen the
soil with a spade and remove the
plants carefully. in order not to break
the small, tender roots. Put the
plants in box or bucket and keep
covered from sun and wind as much
as possible.

A good way to supply water to
fowls, especially to the growing chicks,
is to keep it before them in stamped
out, galvanized refrigerator pans. The
nice thing about these pans for water
ing chicks is that they are seamless,
quite easily cleaned, and can be OBJ.
tanned in any suitable size. Further,
they hold a good volume of water and
are very easily filed. For young
chicks place a brick or fat stone in
the centre Of the pan so that If any
jump in, they can rescue themselves.

RUSSIANS RIDDLE
A GERMAN AIRSHIP
German Outposts Suffer
Heavily in Fight at
Eydtkuhnen.
Rv HERBERT CHETWYND.

Especial Correspondent OF The New hork
Tribune and London Standard
St. Petersburg, Aug. Delayed
The report that the Germans have &C.
cupied Warsaw is officially denied
there. Warsaw is strongly fortihed
and has a large garrison, even in times
of peace. This force has been consld-
erably augmented since the moblllza-
ton began. Quite apart from OUTSIDE
aid, Warsaw could stand a siege OF
many months.
A small German iirship of the Par
seval unrigid type was >riddled with
shot and brought to ground near Gees
tochova on Friday. Two German ON
Gers and two navigators were killed.
Heavy German losses are reported at
Eydtkuhnen. The Russian troops re-
pulsed and pursued the German cav
airy, of whom 100 were killed and many
wounded. The Russian casualties were
so killed and wounded.
The regular German troops, who
hitherto had been scattered in small
detachments along the frontier, are
now concentrating near the Russian
border in brigades composed of two or
three regiments each, all in readiness
to take the field.
Frequent skrmishes between out
pests on the frontier are reported.
German military aeroplanes fly daily in
the direction of Kovno, capital of the
Russian province of that name, which
has an outlet on the Baltic.

WHERE IS KRONPRlNz?
Wireless Report of Seizure by
Essex Is Denied.

Captain Harwood, of the steamship
Narragansett, denied yesterday report
that the wireless operator of his steam
ship had picked up a message from
Bermuda, saying that the British cruis-
err Essex was towing the North German
Lloyd liner Kronprinz Wilhelm into
Hamilton as prize.
He said he had heard code messages
being exchanged between German cruis-
ers and shore, but was unable to de-
cipher them.
The North German Lloyd Line cabled
yesterday TO Bermuda, asking il the
Kronprinz Wilhelm had been taken
there by the Essex. The reply said
that because of the strict censorship
the report could be neither confirmed
nor denied
