pretty set, which costs next to nothing
TO make.

A very common inquiry from farm
ers is in regard to inoculating hogs
as protection against cholera.
Hog cholera has been a great men
ace to the hog industry. This disease
may not be dreaded If care is taken to
keep out infection as well as possible
and then use hog cholera serum as
soon as the disease gets within two
miles of the place where hogs are
maintained. There are two methods
OF applying the serum. the one being
called the simultaneous method and
the other the preventive. The stimuli
taneous method should never be used
where there is some doubt of the ex-
istence of hog cholera in the district.
1t consists of injecting preventive
serum as well as the living virus of
the hog cholera and rapidly overlook
ing 1t with the antitoxin. Often hogs
are thought to be infected with chol-
era when some other disease is pres
ent. In such cases the simultaneous
treatment is extremely dangerous be-
cause it introduces the disease to a

treated may become infected. In such
cases it is probable the man introduc-
ing the hog cholera by means of the
simultaneous treatment would be la
BILE for damages if he cannot locallze
the disease to his own place. Inc
simultaneous treatment costs only a
few cents more than the other and
renders grown pigs immune from choi-
era during a considerable length OF
time, possibly for life.
Where it is not certain that hog
cholera is actually in the district but
where it is suspected that the disease
has become established within a few
miles of the hog farm the single"
treatment is recommended. This con-
sists of injecting a sufficient quantity
of antitoxin into the blood of the pigs
and thus rendering them immune to
any attacks of cholera This work
should be done by a trained v%eterinari-
an and the serum will cost about forty
cents for. an average size pig. The
serum will render the pig immune
from cholera for two to three months
and must be repeated at the end OF
that time.

every month in the year and glad to
get it.
Never attempt to keep summer
butter for early fall prices. because
it will not keep.
All milk should be separated as soon
as taken from the COW. This can be
done by passing 1t through the separa-
tor, but it is net as good as a device
which divides the milk into many fine
streams and then allows it to flow
over a wide surface in thin sheets
with plenty OF ice to keep the surface
cool.
If nothing better can be had, milk
may be aerated by placing the cans in
a trough of cold water and dipping
the milk with a long-bandled dipper
and pouring it back into the can until
it is thoroughly cool.
Never cover milk while warm. in
the cans. as it will produce a musty
odor.
The mixer who will thump a COW
for squirming under the attack OF
flies. ought to be hoisted out of the
barn on the toe of the dairyman's
boots.
In some states. the law is that all
milk after July 1 must he pasteurized
before leaving the creamery. In Den
mark milk is p~asteurized at all times.
Need not expect cows to keep up
the milk flow during the tail-end OF
summer, unless you have plenty of
soiling crops to feed. Dead grass
does not produce milk.
