Experience With Hogs.
Mr.. Lau has had many and varied
experiences with hogs. He raises from
20 to 80 head OF Poland China per
year. In the "a years he has farmed,
he had cholera three times. In 1912
1t broke out and from some so or go

called serum which was being used
in the county. He treated with this
two Of his hogs and put them in
neighboring herd where cholera pre-
vailed. In short time they contract
ed the disease and died and Mr.. Iau
was convinced that the serum treat
ment for hogs was failure.
However, the success OF the treat
ment at the Iowa farms near Daven-
port soon set him to thinking again
and he secured three pigs in the fall
Of 1912 from the Iowa farms which
had been given the Simultaneous
treatment and placed them in three in
fected herds in his neighborhood. All
three pigs weathered the storm sue
cessfully, although nearly all the hogs
in the three herds died. That put a
new aspect to the subject and in the
summer of 1913 Mr.. Lau gave all his
pigs the serum-simultaneous treatment
without any loss, although cholera pre-
vailed in the neighborhood. He now
gives his hogs the serum-simultaneous
treatment every year.
Mr.. Lau raises about 100 head of
chickens each year, planning to sell
of the cockerels and old hens each
winter and keeps the pullets. He sells
them dressed at 20 cents per pound in
Davenport. He has had considerable
trouble with chicken cholera and with
blackhead in turkey, being compelled
to cease raising the latter fowl on that
account.
