FARMER, SAVE YOUR HOGS

Warm weather is approaching
and with this an increase in hog
cholera and parasitic troubles,
thus the death rate among your
herd. How often we have known
farmers to lose hundreds of dol
lars by losing their hogs. A lit
tie carelessness or ncgTect and we
pay dearly for it. A little care
full work at the proper time will
save you the greater part of this
loss. "a stitch in time saves
nine" is an old adage if applied
to hog raising will work wonders.
With the boil weevil no line of
work will pay better on the farm,
and if we are to make continued
progress, we must learn to take
better care of our hogs.
Clean up your premises thoro-
-ly to get rid of the parasites, such
as mites, lice, worms, etc. [
find that a great deal of the trou-
bic farmers are having with their
hogs is due to parasitic causes.
Hogs will never be thrifty as long
as they are being preyed upon by
parasites. The remedy is sim
pie and easy, any OF the standard
coal tar products on the market
applied frequently and thoroly
will destroy mites and lice. The
loss in your herd, especially with
pigs and shoats is enormous. This
does not figure the entire loss to
you; the hogs you raise are not
the hogs they should be the
weight is not there for the amount
OF feed and the time given.
Watch closely to detect any in
lection of cholera and have your
hogs inoculated. Notify your
neighbors and try to interest him
in having his inocuIated. You
cannot be too careful, every hog
you let die tends to spread the in
lection. A little time and few
dollars spent here may mean
hundreds to you later.
Remember that if you do not I'm
derstand how to free your hogs
OF parasites, or to inoculate your
hogs, and | will gladly do this
for you. Let's take a common
sense view of the problem AND
save the county this enormous
loss. If Brooks county can ship
out AZ cars, what can Ben Hill
do? Phone or write when in
need of information to Leader
Enterprise or to County Demon
stration Agent.
