A5es bSlNe Of Cholera
Some Have Lost Heavily While
Others Escaped by
Vaccinating.

Hogs have been dying at an
alarming rate in several sections
of the country both on the plateau
and in the valleys. Some have
been neglectful of vaccinating be-
cause the disease seemed to eff
feet the hogs differently to what
/ it usually does and for that reason
was not considered cholera until
| too late to act. ...
We learn that losses have been
very heavy in the Grassy Cove re-
gion as we'll is in Sequatchie val
| ley. At several points on the
plateau losses have been heavy.
IF. A. Loshbough has lost hogs to
the value of $400 or more. Many
others in different parts of the
country have lost practically
every hog they had. W. D. Ker-
ley on the John @. Wyatt farm,
has lost $500 in hogs from chol-
era. The Blaylocks have lost 70
head. The total loss in the county
will run into thousands of dollars.
During the state fair H. J.
Dunbar went to Nashville and
qualified for vaccinating affected
with cholera. He vaccinated 81
head for himself and every one
got along fine and are doing well.
He had nine more that he could
not vaccinate because his supply
of virus gave out. All of them
except one died. He and brother,
Mark Dunbar, have been vacci-
mating hogs the past few days and
think they have prevented a
heavy loss thereby.
No person is allowed to vacci-
nate hogs until they take the
proper examination and receive
the proper instructions from the
state authorities at Nashville. |
Mr.. Dunbar is equipped for the
work and it would be a wise |
course for persons near town to
secure him to do the vac 1inating
of them. 1t costs Is cents a head |
and the owner to furnish the vac.
cine.
In the face of a splendid mast
it is very much to be regretted
that our farmers should be lax in
fighting hog cholera, If proper
care is taken to protect the re-
mainder of the hogs in the woods
there will be many thousands of
dollars in fat hogs shipped from
this county between now and next
summer and the fattening will
not cost the owners one dollar a
head. Last year fully SIS, 900 in
fat hogs were shipped from this
county and the cost to the owners
was a mere nothing for they fat
tened in the woods with no cost
to the owners. 1t was predicted
by we'll informed persons that
there would be more fat hogs
shipped from this section this
year than last, but since so many
died of cholera, that is not likely.
b'1t many persons will not only
secure their own meat but will
sell several hundred dollars worth
between now and next June, in
spite of the heavy losses already
sustained. -Crossville Chronicle.
