Control For
HOg.ChO|eTa

On farms that are free of infec.
ton, 1t is we'll to remove all manure
and clean the hog yards by scraping
| together the corn cobs and hauling
them to the fields to be plowed I'M
| der; all wallow holes should be fill
ed; the hog houses and cots should
be sprayed with a disinfectant.
These precautions should be taken
before the arrival of warm weather.
II there has been hog cholera in
lection on the farm during the last
several months, 1t is necessary to
practice more rigid precautions in
Kidding the premises of the disease.
All litter such as manure, cobs and
straw piles should be burned or haul.
ed to a field where there Is no dan
ger of spreading the infection. 1t is
not advisable to scatter It over the
field as there is danger of birds dis
tributing the cholera infection to the
neighboring farms. If pied up for
a few months and mixed with chlor-
ide Of lime. it Is then safe to scatter
the manure over the field. All wallow
holes should be filled in. The fences
about the yards, lots and log houses
should be sprayed with a three per
cent water solution Of eresol disin-
fectant. A small quantity Of lime
may be added to the disinfecting So
luton so that the sprayed surface ap.
pears white and the danger of fail
Ing to spray the entire surface is
avoided. Quick lime should be scat
tered about the yards. II the above
precautions are practiced following
an outbreak, the yards may be safe,
ly restocked In two or three months
with hogs.
1t is well to treat all hogs In an
infected herd, that are not showing
serious symptoms of hog cholera,
with antihog cholera serum. The
healthy hogs in the herd should be
vaccinated by the simultaneous meth
cd. The earcasses of hogs dying Of
hog cholera should be burned. All
hogs on farms that adjoin premises
where there Is an outbreak of hog
cholera, or that have been directly
exposed to the disease should be
vaccinated by the simultaneous meth
cd. We consider this a necessary
control measure because of the atti.
tude Of the average farmer toward
the quarantine measures recommend
ed by health offices. Utah Farmer.

Salads are capable of infinite va. riety so when fish and cheese fail vegetables which approach animal foods in nutrition may be served. and either the oil in the dressing or the fat in the cream or melted butter of boiled dressing be depended upon 10 supply the necessary oil. Try corn sa.ad. \ pound ot this yege- table contains as much protein as is found in half pound of lams chops or half dozen eggs Cool freshly boiled corn. also some rice fdried ia the oven until the grains separatel. salt slightly and mix them in equal quantities.; fold in some stin mayon- naisc and serve very cold in lettuce cups. Beans peas and leutils which are all so rich in protein. are very desirable for salads in place of meat. Cover two cups of cold baked beans with French dressing and let stand a half hour; drain. sprinkle with half a teasB0onful Of onion juice. mix with
 ream dressing arrange on lettuce leaves and gaFnish with parsley and hari-cooked eggs Eentils combined with onions, peppers ane parsley. and served on eress with French dressing make hearty and tasty salad
 A fruit salad has the added ad- vantage Of being very heathul. for nearly all fruits hold acids and salts in solution which are cooling to the blood. and there are so many fruits available that none needs to become tiresome. Pears. as a salad possibility once tried. will appear often this way: Peel large pears, halve them. remove the cores and drop them into cold WA ter in which IS tablespoonful of vine gar to keep them white Fill the core cavity with either grate1 cheese or cream cheese balls and serve on let. tuee with French dressing. Purple esg plums nUy be used instead of pears, with lemon juice substituted for vinegar in the dressing. The stone cavity of peaches filled with chopped nuts and arranged on lettuce with mayonnaise Is very tasty. pretty salad can be made from watermelon or cantaloupe by scooping out with a large spoon pieces from the ripest parts. draining chilling and serving in let tuce cups with French dressing When mayonnaise Is used with fruits. leave out the mustard and pepper. put in little sugar and use lemon instead of vinegar always In no case should a boiled acid dressing be used with fruit salad.
