Inspector ]. S. Koen
Tells HoW Cholera
Spreads Among Hogs

l discussed last week the exchange
Of labor as a means of spreading chol-
era. This week the other ways will be
considered.
First. Exposure to sick hogs in
adjoining pens or pasture. Only
per cent of the cholera in Dallas coun-
ty could be accounted for in this man
ner. Whenever cholera appears in your
community keep your hogs as far from
1t as possible, and thus lessen your
danger.
Second Infection harbored on prem
ises. The reason that cholera reap
peared on 10 per cent of the farms in
Dallas county where it had previously
occurred was because these farms We're
not properly cleaned and disinfected.
Every infected farm should be thor
oushly cleaned and then disinfected
with per cent solution of compound
cresol in order to prevent Il recurrence
on the farm.
Third Infection carried by dogs
Undoubtedly the rowing dog is one OF
our hardest problems to contend with.
owners will insist their dogs do not
run around and refuse to tie or con-
fine them when cholera is near. While
their nciShbors insist their dogs may
be seen any night roaming the country.
The man on whose farm cholera is
present can be quarantined and his dog
controlled, but the other dogs in
the community are free to go wherever
they please, unless their owners volun-
tarily restrain them. The dog should
not be condemned as much as his own
er. II is his nature to run about and
he knows no better. If the owners Of
all dogs will do their part and confine
them the dogs will cease to be a men
ace. a man has right to own as many
dogs as he cares to pay taxes on, but
he has no right to let these dogs run at
large, to be a danger and a menace TO
his ncighbors. Again, if the owners
of dead hogs will destroy them as they
should by completely burning them, the
dogs will have little opportunity to
carry infection from one farm to an.
other.
Fourth. Purchase of new stock. No
new stock, not even supposedly immune
hogs, should be taken home ard placed
with other hogs for at least fifteen
days and Il longer isolation would be
LStlcI. Last winter SOOu LOOKING nOSS
were shipped into Perry and sold at
public auction. The last two shipments
carried cholera into the county that re-
infected the whole north half of the
county. Not only were most of the hogs
OF these shipments lost but many 9TH
ers, and had this cholera been shipped
INTO Dallas county at this time OF the
year instead OF in the dead of winter,
there IS no reason to expect but that
the damage would lave been much
greater tnan It was.
tlfth. Indefinite sources of infection.
There will always be outbrt AXIS of CHI d.
era tor which it will be difficult to ac-
count. bat if hearty cooperation
among hos raisers is secured to guard
AGAINST exposure that can be avoided
these indefinite sources will also be
diminished and we need have little fear
OF heavy losses from them
Next week Will be brief discussion
OF INC serum preventive treatment.

IOWA STATISTICS IN PRINT.
Editor Of State Census Sends Last Copy
to Printers.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 23.-In about ten
days the state of Iowa will have ready
TO- use the results Of the last state CEN
sus taking and the census Of Iowa, 1915,
will be ready for use. Ora Williams,
editor of the census, today sent to the
printer the very last copy" for the
book, being the last pages Of the index.
AS soon as this is printed and the bind
err can get the books put together the
census will be ready for use. In view
of the large amount Of work done, the
vast extent Of the compilations, the ma
terial gathered from all sources aside
from the count Of population and the
unusual care in the preparation Of the
work, the time taken for publication
has been reasonably short.
The book will be one of 900 pages,
chock full of good material of value to
the state. 1t will be for free distribu-
ton so far as the edition holds out, and
doubtless will be in great demand as
soon as the contents are known.

FRIENDS, YEARLY MEETING.

Unusual Interest Expected to Be Shown
In This Years Gathering.
Special to Times Republican.
Oskaloosa, Aug. 23.-Raging flames,
the loss Of two lives, and sensational
100000 campaign for college funds
successfully consummated, combine to
accelerate the otherwise normal inter-
est In Iowa yearly meeting of Friends.
The Quaker college, Penn, whose
main building was recently destroyed
by fire. and the Quaker Church in
Iowa are intimately allied. So close is
this union in the mind OF the approx
mately, 5000 yearly meeting member
ship, that the accidents tragedies and
sensations Of the past few weeks. tho
having to do more directly with the col
lege, will undoubtedly affect favorably
the attendance at the annual gathering
of Iowa Quakers. Yearly meeting opens
Monday. Aug. %, at Oskaloosa, and
continues thruout the week.
The 1916 yearly meeting program is
arranged to some extent in convention
style. 1t is so repletc in special and
valuable features as to provide Il quite
sufficient reason for an enlarged in
terest entirely apart from the wrack-
ing incidents and accidents that have
of late forced Hawkeye Quakerdom in
to the foreground
The officers of Iowa Yearly Meeting
of Friends are: Stephen NJ. Hadley,
clerk, Oskaloosa; Richard r. Newly,
reading clerk Des Moines; Cora NJ.
Mattson, recording clerk, Oskaloosa;
Zeno H. Doan, statistical clerk, Lynn
Vile; Milo Hockett, treasurer. Colfax;
Harry r. Keats, evangelistic superin-
tendent Des Moines.
Sarah J. Pickerell, an aged lady of
Oskaloosa. and Joseph Sopher, Friends
pastor at Grinnell, enjoy the exceptional
distinction Of having attended every
annual gathering Of Iowa Friends thru
out this period of fifty-three years.
The record of Iowa Yearly Meeting
membership reached it's maximum, 49,,
900, in 1892. The membership has been
reduced from time to time by the old
hive swarming-the establishing OF
other yearly meetings. This is the
mother of three others: Oregon. Cali
fornia and Nebraska. The combined
membership of Iowa yearly meeting and
her three daughters Is nearly $4,000.

TELL WHO WILL USE VIRUS.
Manufacturer Must Know Before Ship.
ment Can Be Made, SAYS Law.

1t is now unlawful for companies
making hog cholera serum and virus
to ship any virus to parties not hold
ing permit to use the virus. This
regulation was made by the last legis-
lature.
l.. order to avoid delay farmers who
wish to use the virus should always
give the name Of the veterinarian who
will administer it, In this case 1t is
necessary for the veterinarian to hold
general permit. This suggestion APP
plies to orders with commercial COM
panies or with the state plant at
AmeS.
1t would be well for every hog raiser
in the state to have a copy of chapter
227, section 1888, Iowa laws, providing
for the manufacture. distribution and
use Of serum and virus in the state.
This can be secured by writing the d-

CULTIVATION CAVES GARDEN.
It's Ec::cr Hot Weather Remedy Than
Watering.


One of tho bedrock ideas that home
gardeners in Iowa need is that good
cultivation not nlcra conserveS moist
ure, but keeps out heat. and keeps the
roots and plants healthy, say the truck
crop specialists at Iowa State College.
If there were only some weeds that
would grow in dry weather, people
would cultivate and ho2 a lot mere and
the gardens would be bettcc of.
Watering is nc Su5st itutc for cultiva-
ton. Deep scaling once or twice Il
month. followed by hoeing about two
inches deep is fine for the gardens;
frequent shallow watering is great
damage. 1t is like giving the baby
candy whenever he cries; the immedi-
ate results look good, but the general
effect is ruinous. Most gardeners should
use the hoe and not the hose.
