SPREAD HOG CHOLERA GERMS
Disease Communicated to Healthy An
finals Only by Permitting Germs
to Be Carried to Them. +;

(By DIR. B. T. sTMMS. Oregon Expert
ment Station.1
Hog raisers need to be on the alert
to prevent the introduction and!
spread of the dread disease into their
parts of the state. Since the disease
is due to germ of microscopic size
it naturally follows that it can be-
communicated to well hogs only by
permitting the germs to be carried
to them. A knowledge Of the differ
ent methods of carrying the germ
from infected hogs to well hogs is es-
sential to prevention. Some Of
these methods of spread are as fol-
lows:
l. BY direct contact with hogs suf-
fering from cholera.
2. By carriers, that is, hogs that
pass germs with their droppings.
8. By humans that have come into
contact with infected hogs or prem
ises.
4. By dogs, coyotes, buzzards and
other carrion-eating animals that have
fed on the carcasses of infected hogs
5. By stock cars, stock yards, ETC.,
in which have been placed infected
hogs.
6. By infected water.
z. By Stops, swill and garbage that
have been infected with bacon rinds
or ham bones from hogs that had
been afflicted with cholera at slaugh-
ter.
Germs will ordinarily die out in four
months in lot conditions, but are so
resistant that they survive the usual
curing and packing process as carried
on in the big packing houses. After
they have once found lodgment in
the hog there is no remedy known but
hog cholera serum. Growers should
therefore take every precaution to see
that germs do not enter their herds
by any of the foregoing means.

The apartment Of the governor gen
eral was splendidly decorated, and in
the center of the parquet floor, with
his back to the light, was the thin
wiry figure Of an elderly man in a
funereal frock coat, in the lapel OF
which showed the red and yellow rib
bon of the Order of st. Anne. His
hands were behind his back, and he
stood purposely In such position that
when / entered / could not at first
see his face against the strong, gray
light behind.
But when the footman had bowed
and retired and we were alone, he
turned slightly, and then saw that
his bony face, with high cheek bones
slight gray side whiskers, hard mouth
and black eyes set closely together
was OF one who could act without any
compunction and without regret
Truly one would not be surprised al
any cruel, dastardly action of a man
with such face-the face of an op

high-pitched voice. "You want to see

SWINE ON ALFALFA PASTURE
Desirable to Have Fields Fenced Oft
Into Suitable Areas to Shift Hogs
From One to Another.
(By G. w. BARNES. Arizona Experiment
Station.)

By G. w. BARNES. Arizona Experiment
Station)
While few hogs can be raised con-
fined in limited quarters, provided
such quarters are kept clean, they
will do better, remain healthier and
produce pork more economically it
they have plenty Of alfalfa range.
1t is desirable to have the alfalfa
pasture fenced off into suitable areas,
so that the hogs can be shifted from
one pasture to another. This will not
only provide fresh pasture, but will
give an opportunity to cultivate, and
if need be to disinfect.
Practically all cases of Intestinal
worms, which are common in swines
are contracted from infected grounds: :.
therefore, by pasture rotation you can
help keep your hogs free from these
parasites.

Here is a little cross-section sketch

just recently. made the forms, inside
and out, of by inch matched
yellow pine boards, with two-inch
cleats about two feet apart, greas-
ing the forms with machine oil, writes
Ernest Heuer in Farmers Review.
Where we wanted the tank to stand
We filled in the ground with an eight
inch base of cinders On this we put
up the outside form. Then we were
ready for the concrete.
The bottom is eight inches thick Of
1-2-4 concrete. For tails and walls I
like to have the concrete rather wet.

we used a richer concrete, 1-1k-3.

WORK OF ART AND MOST COMPLETE.

What will undoubtedly be the handsomest book of it's kind that has ever been attempted in the south west, will be distributed free to all visitors at the PanamaPaeific Inter national Exposition from the Arkan- sas building about the middle Of June and will be known as Arkansas and Her Resources.
 This book will be about the size of the Saturday Evening Post, and will be beautifully illustrated with views of the various scenes in the seven ty-five counties of Arkansas, and will be rife with information, data, etc, for the person looking to know more Of Arkansas. The cover will be a work of art, in number of colors, and will be symbolic of the States resources, progress, features, etc., and is from the pen of one of the best known artists in the country
 No feature will be overlooked, and it is hoped to make this the most complete Statewide book ever put olt.
 MT. J Frank Keeley, one of the best known newspaper men in Arkan- sas, has been appointed director of publicity and compilation, and as MT. Keeley's knowledge of the State is most comprehensive, this, coupled with the fact that within the next ninety days he will visit every coun- ty, should mean that the book, Ark ansas and Her Resources will be of great value to every section of Arkansas.
 Mr Keeley is the author of the book, Arkansas, the Land of Great CT Opportunity, which has had wide circulation over the United States, and in addition has made number of trips North describing the States resources, etc.
 Arkansas and Her Resources will be the official book of the Ark ansas Commission to the Internation- al Panama-Pacific Exposition and will be the only publication of it's kind that will be permitted to be distrib- utsd, either from the Arkansas build ing or any other part of the eXposi- ti0n grounds

The facts are that the agent who calls on you and wants you to join the mutual does hot tell you all these facts but he on- ly explains to you how cheap you can get in and you will then have to do the getting out. He will also tell you how some company has operated cheaply but he never tells you of the hundreds that have gone broke and cost the farmer thousands of dollars and in some instances almost broke them up. That he leaves for you to find out. He does not tell you that you are also responsible for all the acts Of the company and all losses re- gardless of amount which you are, and in other words you are practically mortgaging your farm for the pro lection of the other fellow He does not tell you that you are also respon- sible for the assessments of some one who cannot pay, which you are, and you will have to pay if you are worth it.

Mutual run smoothly for some time, but when the time came for them to get all average you can see where they stand
 It is needless to say more on this as these are the facts and any one can get them by looking up the rec ords.
 Why not carry your insurance in an old line company and know just what you are going to pay and what you are going to get without any guess work about it and pay for your own responsibility and not stand back Of the carelessness of your neighbor.
 There is. also another thing that should be taken into consideration and that is that most of these Mutual companies do not protect you against loss from the elements which as you know is so very heavy but leave you to carry that part yourself or buy it from some old line company, yet it seems that they would have you be- liete that you are fully protected Remember that one of your great dan gers is from cyclones, windstorms and tornadoes.
 AS you know the Dodson-Renner In. suranee Agency writes the principal part of the farm business of North west Arkansas and that because we have the rate contract and company. See our agent or write us for rates and contract.
 Why take chances when you can buy insurance where you pay for what you get and know that you are not li- able for the acts of the other fellow.
