HOG CHOLERA SERUM IS
NOW MADE At MOULTR|E

At the live stock conference Il
Moultrie recently DR.. H. H. Rothe.. BAG
teriologist in charge of the Georgia
serum laboratory located OF Moultrie.
Ca, for the manufacture Of hog choi-
era serum gave out some very inter-
esting information regarding the mar.
ner of producing this serum. In the
language of the ordinary .ayman, tie
doctor said:
In every animal there are certain
upbuilding forces that go to work inn
mediately to repair any damage done
by disease or hurt. If these forces
succeed in building faster than the dis
ease effects tear down, the patient re-
covers if not he dies. The effect Of
serum is to help the upbuilding forces.
How to get this serum?
"A seemingly perfectly healthy pig
is taken, dieted, tested and treated for
a certain number of days to ascertain
without doubt that he is a good
subject, well and hearty. Then he is
given dose Of cholera germs. At the
same time he is given a treatment to
assist his natural ability to overcome
the cholera infection. This is called
double" or simultaneous treatment"
If he gets well his system is charged
time and again with this overcoming
treatment until he is so full of it, that
it is impossible to give him cholera.
Then at certain intervals his blood il
drawn (from the end of his tail) until
lie has given up all his LIES blood.
This is taken into the laboratory and
manufactured into serum.
This serum must yet be tested to see
BIZ it is effective. A litter of pigs is
secured and part of them treated with
serum. Then all of them are treated
with cholera germs. If the serum pigs
get well and the others die from this
treatment, then the serum is offered
to the public
Serum is administered to protect the
rig from cholera, not as a medicine CT
cure, but as a preventive.

SPRAYING CANTALOUPEs
PROVED GREAT SUCCESS

ATHENS, Ga, July 2S.-A very con-
elusive demonstration IN spraying
canteloupes has been made by ]. Will
IAN Firor of the College ofAgriculture,
and j. T. Pittman, county agent, in
the canteloupe field of ]. L. Dorminy
Fitzgerald. This year losses from
blight have been quite heavy, the
leaves dying very quickly. In 1915 it
is estimated that so per cent of the
crop was destroyed by the disease, at
which time Prof. ]. w. Firor began
his investigation and this year inaugu-
rated sprayings.
On June 2, seven rows or about two
acres of canteloupes were sprayed with
Also mixture. On June 10 a second
spraying was conducted. Alongside #
the area sprayed was an equal area
left unsprayed. By July A all of the
foliage on the unsprayed plants was
dead, while the sprayed plot showed
very little blight and with fruit still
maturing in good shape,
Prof Firor says that spraying is ar
insurance for the crop and that
through number of years the aver
age saving will be 25 per cent OF the
crop. 1t costs about $500 to spray an
acre which insures an added crop
amounting to about $3.50 per acre,
also better quality of canteloupes.
AS a result of demonstrations made
there are indications that the practice
will be very generally adopted in the
cantaloupe region of Georgia next
season. Other demonstrations will,
however, be made in other sections of
Georgia. next season.

scuIptor's Prophecy.

Suddenly, in the midst Of his work,
Arnold Ronnebeck, who was designing

in Berlin, was overwhelmed by a

sadness. 1t was not like mood, but
rather like a deep shadow cast over
him and his work He was under cons

keep at TX Finally he yielded to whar,
was for him a mysterious impulse, and
let his feelings have their way with
him. No one was more astonished
than he when he had finished, roughly

New York, Sept. 15.-Since Johnny

had such an easy time in winning
from George Chaney of Baltimore in

The fact of the matter is that Kill

New York, Sept. 15.--John r. Te-

is one man who doesn't understand
why every young pitcher who goes in
to the big leagues is admonished
even after he becomes veteran:

'The best Of the pitchers, men who
have made baseball history, did not

is anything in following an effective
mans method to gain the same sort
of effectiveness, the young pitcher is
gaining nothing by taking his time.

Perhaps if the fans were aware OF
these facts they might cry out for the
