SWINE TREATED WITH VIRUS
Vaceinated Hogs Should Be Placed in Separate Pen Away From Other
 Animals of Herd.

fBy " P. sHULER, Oklahoma Expert
 ment Station)
 If you vaccinate a part of your herd Of hogs by the double treatment they should be placed in a separate pen. away from the other hogs. and kept under quarantine. so to speak, for about three weeks. in order to avoid the possibility of transmitting cholera to the unvaccinated ones.
 When an animal receives the double treatment. he has a mild attack of cholera. The vaccine furnishes his body with enough extra protective sub stances that the animal is uniniured. After the vaccination has taken" this animal is liable to transmit disease for a period of from 20 to 30 days. After that time he should be dipped. the pen thoroughly dislnfected, and then he can go back among the unvaccinat- ed hogs. Otherwise he will carry the cholera.
 It is better to allow month to elapse and strict quarantine observed. Use different vessels to feed, and al- low no one to go into the pens. If you give the other hogs a dose of vaccine. but not virus. they can safely asso- ciate with the hogs that have had the double treatment. but under no other condition is this possible.

BEST TRoUGHS OF CONCRETE
Last Indefinitely and Are Cheaper in Long Run Than Other Kind-
 Formula Is Given.

Nothing contributes to the health and thrift of farm live stock more than an abundant supply of pure wa fer. Realizing this. many Mississippi farmers are building clean. sanitary and permanent watering troughs of concrete. Since such troughs last in- definitely they are proving not only more satisfactory than other kinds of watering troughs but cheaper in the long run.
 In making waterproof concrete, such as is used in water troughs and tanks, f Is best to use very wet mixture. The formula commonly used is one part cement, two parts sand, four parfs gravel. Add water until the mixture will pour off the shovel. On the present-day farm concrete has many uses. Fence posts, feeding floors and walks made of concrete will last indefinitely.
 Use good materials-elean sand and gravel. with not over five per cent of loam. clay or other foreign matter.
 Use a reliable brand of Portland ce- ment. free from Jumps.
 Use clean water to mix.
 Place in forms within 30 minutes after mixing.
 Keep wet and allow to "cure" 30 days, protecting from .he sun during the curing period.-snssissippi A. & M. College.

BULLETIN BOARD IS FAVORED
Every Farmer Should Advertise Any. thing He May Have to SeIl-
 Sales Are Encouraged.

Every ranchman should have bull letin board on which to advertise any, thing he may have to sell. Tn this way dairy and poultry products, fruits, veg etables. and anything else to be dis posed of, could be listed, and many sales made. Often one's own neigh bors desire the very thing that might be had on the next farm. The name of the farm should be placed at the top of the signboard, which should be made of durable material and placed near the road so it can be read with ease.

FALL PLANTING OF ROSES
By PRISCILLA PAkE-

Fall planting of roses nay be done in the latter part Of October or early in November, or even as late as the middle Of December. with excellent re suits.
 Hoses planted in ehe fall. however. should be ser deep and banked well with earth just before the ground freezes. T. is also wei fo c0Ter Ehe soil about the plants with manure, which should not be removed until fhe middle of April. or until all danger from 8 severe frost is over, whereupon this dressing nay be forked under.
 When the rose plants are received from the nurseryman they should be unpacked as soon as they come 10 hand. Thereupen the tops and roots should be well sprinkIed with water. atfer which they should be covered with bagging and placed in a shaded spot until ready to plant
 If the ground is not prepared when the plants arrive. it is advisable 10 put them in q shallow trench and cover the roots with loose soil until the ground can be put into a proper condition.
 The enrichment Of the soil. however. should not only be made at the time Of the preparation of the bed before plant ing. but in the spring of every year. for with such attention bountiful supply Of flowers may be expected every season.

HARVESTING CORN WITH HOGS
Will Return Greater Profit Than That Harvested in Usual Way-Test
 at Missouri Station.

One acre of corn harvested by hogs will return a greater profit than an equal acre harvested in the usual way. At the Missouri experiment station an acre of corn hogged off produced more pork than an acre of corn harvested and fed to hogs in the customary way. II is not practicable to hog down the entire corn crop. but 1t Is good prac- ice to utilize certain portion of the crop in this way.
