HINTS ON THE CARE OF HOGS
Select a Standard Breed and Stick to
lt-Feed for Bone and General
Development of Pig.

Do not make the mistake of expert
menting with too many breeds. Sc
lect standard for what you want
to raise and then stick.
We do not want bone in the pigs
that 60 to market, but fat. Feed for
fat, then.
But for breeding we must feed for
bone and general development.
Pigs will fatten rapidly when fed
corn alone, but the fattening will be at
the expense of health and growth.

BEST TEMPERATURE FOR COW

In response to query as to ABOUT
the right temperature for dairy barn
Hoards Dairyman makes the follow
ing reply:
We are not prepared to say what Is
considered the right temperature to
keep the barn for dairy cows. 1t Is
our opinion that 1t is not well to have
the barn colder than SO degrees
Fahrenheit. In very severe weather
the temperature in the Hoard's Dairy
man barns falls to so degrees Fahren'
heit. While the milk flow seems to be
about the same under these condi'
tions, yet the cattle seem to sho"
signs of not being as comfortable as
when the barn is at 60 degrees. II

vorite Food for Bees.

Alsike clover unlike our red clover,
is well adapted to low. moist soils,
also to dried up land. 1t should not
be sown alone. Six pounds of alsike
seed and ten pounds of red clover seed
sown to the acre will give a large crop
of excellent hay, and larger yield
than If either were sown alone
Red clover will seldom produce a
crop of hay the third year. while
alsike will yield good crops from three
to five years il the land is in good
condition and the season not too dry.
Alsike clover is well known as the
favorite food for bees. The honey
made from alsike blossoms is said to
be of excellent quality. But its great
est value is for pasture. When once
firmly rooted 1t will make a sturdy
growth even IL the season is hot and

Hay farmers who have grown this
clover for some years consider it
valuable to mix with meadow grasses.

serum cooled and bottled. 1t is then
placed in a refrigerator to wait for the
testing. This is done by trying the
serum with pigs and also in the best
plants by a meteorological examina-
ton. The potency of the serum Is
tested by taking some pigs weighing
80 to 10 pounds that are not immune
to cholera, injecting some of them
with hog cholera blood alone and the
others with varying amounts of the
serum along with the hog cholera
blood. The pigs that receive no serum
are termed check pigs and should die
from cholera within from five to four
teen days. The pigs receiving serum
should remain healthy. If the bacteri-
illogical examination shows no bacteria
that are liable to produce blood poison

is good, the serum of that particular

ber of the test and placed on the mar
ket.

(By CHESTER G. STARR. Purdue Ex-
pertinent Station.J
The anti-hog-cholera serum used in
the prevention of hog cholera is OBJ
tained from hogs that have recovered
from an attack of cholera and have
been rendered very strongly resistant
to the disease. The modern serum
laboratory is mandatory in the full
sense of the word.
Healthy hogs are purchased either
at home or at some market; they are
vaccinated upon arrival at the serum
plant. and good care is taken of them
for three weeks. At the end of that
time they have fully recovered from
the effects of vaccination and are what
are termed immunes. At the end of
this time, the immunes are given very
large doses of very virulent hog-chol-
era blood. This blood is obtained in
the better serum companies by buying
nealthy one hundred to one hundred
and fifty-pound hogs, inoculating them
with cholera blood alone. These virus
hogs are killed as soon as they show
high temperatures and visible signs of
cholera. Their blood is carefully col
iected in bottles or jars. the fibrin fill
tered out and the resulting fluid is the
virus used for injecting into the i'm
munes. Large quantities of virus are
given each immune, a 200-pound hog
receiving from one to two quarts of
this very virulent blood. depending on
the method used in injecting IT, This
dose of virus renders the immune very
strongly resistant to cholera, and he
is now what is termed hyperimmune.
Ten days after the injection of virus, IL
the hyperimmune is in good health. the
frst bleeding is done. Since the tall
offers the only place available without
danger of bleeding to death, it is Sc
lected as the place for bleeding. A
small piece of the tail is cut off and
the blood, flowing from the cut, is col
Iected in bottles After certain guam

and the hog released. A week later
the hog can be bled again. One week
after the second bleeding third bleed
ing is done. At this time the serum
from the hyperimmune is becoming less
potent and the hog is rehyperimmu-
nized by fresh injection of virus. AZ
ter the tail is clipped too short for
further uso. the hog is killed and all
of the blood is collected. In some
plants that are close by a packing
house one bleeding is done. The hog is
killed at the time of the first bleeding
and the blood collected. The carcass
is inspected and passed for food If the
tissues are normal.

that are obtained before rehyperimmu-

the more yirulent the virus. the more
potent will be the serum. Nothing but
the strongest virus possible should
ever be used. Strains of virus that
will produce fever and fatal sickness

short for further use and neck at tho
final bleeding or from but one bleeding
at the neck as practiced by some serum
companies. will not produce any differ
ence in the potency or in the amount
of foreign bacteria. provided that
proper methods of sterilization are en-
ployed.
No virus should be used that is bled
from hogs that show LESSONS of other
diseases other than acute cholera
Each virus hog should be carefully ex-
amined after bleeding The amount Of
bacteria, and especially the number OF
pathogenic bacteria, is due to the meth
DDS of sterilization used. Each hog
should be carefully cleaned and disin-
fected, the tail or neck shaved and
steriliZed before bleeding, and all bot
ties or jars should be sterilized. All
of the preparation and bottling should
be done in clean quarters free from
any dust, and no vessels used that are
not sterile.
The potency test may be misleading
through the use of pigs that are from
immune mothers. These pigs may re-
tain enough immunity that they will
remain we'll even though the serum is
low in potency. That is one of the
reasons why check pigs are used. to
show the natural immunity of the pigs.
The pigs should also be of the same
herd or litter and treated alike
