to all residents Of Arkansas who aD-
ply by mail to W. c. Lasseter direc-
tor of extension Of the College Of Agri-
culture.
The circular was prepared by Dr.,
r, NJ Cow state veterinarian Of Ar
kansas. In beginning DR.. Cow takes
up the history Of the experimental
work with regard to hog cholera and
the discovery Of the treatment for pre-
vention. In Arkansas the manufacture
OF anti-hog cholera serum was begun
in 1911 at Fayetteville. Its manufac-
ture has been continued and the Sc
rum is now sold at cost to farmers and
stocE men Of Arkansas,
Hog cholera is germ disease, the
circular sets forth, and spreads among
hogs as typhoid fever or smallpox do
IN man. If no germs are carried into
a herd the hogs will be in no danger
of hog cholera However, 1t is almost
impossible to guard against infec-
tion as the germs may be carried by
dogs, birds, shoes, wagon wheels and
running water,
The two forms Of cholera, acute and
chronic, are described so that a farm
er may recognize the systems Of either
form, The manner Of diagnosing hog
cholera by post mortem examination
is given and the manner for disinfec.
tion is described Hogs that have
died Of cholera, DR., Cow says in the
bulletin, should be burned He rec.
ommends Quicklime as n disinfectant
