HOG VACCINATION.

During the last year serum from the plant at Little Rock, conduct ed by the veterinary department of the College of Agriculture, has been sent to every county in Ar kansas, and men from the office of the state veterinarian and the county agricultural agents have vaccinated hogs in every county. In many counties about half the time of these agents has been de- voted to this work, to the neglect of regular farm demonstrations. In hundreds of cases agents have spent three or four hours on the road, going and coming, and thirty minutes in vaccinating three or four hogs. Farmers cannot afford to have their agents use their time in that way. There is only one remedy and that is for each farmer to vaccinate his own hogs or for the farmers of neighborhood to arrange for one or two neighbors to do it. Don't make a first class agent do all this work. One coun- ty agent in Arkansas has fifty farmers with instruments, and a progressive banker in the county seat keeps a supply of serum on hand all the time and the agent has time to attend to farm demon strations and to the boys.
