BURN CHOLERA HOGS
TO CONTROL DISEASE
Burying CarcaSSeS Is Not Good
Practice, as Dogs Are Liable
to Dig Them Up.

By L c. KIGIN, Assistant Veterinarian,
Purdue University
Visiting q certain section of the
state where hog cholera existed, at
tempted to trace the origin of this
outbreak. The farm where the dis
ease first existed was visited. We no
ticed buzzards flying over the place
and upon investigation, dead hogs
were found half eaten at the foot of
a cliff. Dogs had made path to this
place. Owing to the peculiar arrange
ments of this particular spot, it was
inaccessible to other live stock.
Until people are more careful and
burn their dead hogs at once, and
neighbors tie up their dogs, especially
at night, when hog cholera exists in a
community. this disease can not be
controlled.
Burning a hog is a difficult task IN
less a place is prepared for that pur-
pose. A trench six feet long, two feet
wide and Is inches deep is dug, a
piece of woven wire fence stretched
across this trench and staked on each
side. The hog is laid on this fence
and the fire built in the trench be
meath. A few incisions made in the
side of the hog with a knife viii per-
NIT the escape OF grease as soon as
the carcass gets hot.

FEEDING PIGS FORAGE CROPS
Greater Returns Made Than From
Animals Fed in Dry Lots-AI-
faifa Given Highest Rank.

Pigs fed on good forage crops will
make many times as much profit as
those fed in dry lots.
The accredited gain in pork to Pn
acre of forage varies, depending upon
the crop, the age of the hog, and
amount of grain fed. An acre of
sweet clover, with corn at S1.50 and
hogs at SIS a hundred, netted $42.O7 !;
rape, $3.50; alfalfa, $3.50, and a
combination of oats, peas and rape,
$e4.6O.
OF all forage crops, alfalfa is the
great permanent crop, while rape is
the emergency crop, and green rye
the fall and early spring crop. The
ideal forage crop should show adap-
liability to soil and climate, perma-
nency, palatibility, reasonable cost
of planting, and good pasture at any
time during the growing season. AL
falfa, clover and rape have most OF
these qualities.

Ry FRANK D. ToMsON)


If there exists in the mind of anyone
any doubt as to the general inclination
to produce better stock of all breeds,
the prevailing activity of the trade will
serve to clear away these doubts.
There is unQuestionably, at the present
time, a keener and more substantial
demand for registered breeding stock
than has ever existed heretofore. and
with this demand there has been a
steady advance in values. The require
ments have become more exacting,
which has forced higher individual
standards and finer discrimination in
the matter of blood lines.
As an illustration of the present con-
ception of values, TOmson Bros, a
breeding firm, CarbOndale and Dover,
Kansas, disposed of 40 registered
ShorthOrn calves to W. G. Rosenberg
er of Tiffin, O., a breeder of high
class ShOrthorns, for an average of
5000 per head. These calves ranged
in age from eight to fifteen months,
with the exception of five short year
ling heifers, and with four exceptions
were all bred in the TOmsOn herd. The
entire lot had been selected as an Of
fering for public sale to be held later
in the season, but the buyer, who has
appreciated a constantly growing trade
larger than he could supply, found in
these calves just the type and the
lines of breeding that he needed and
made this attractive offer which was
accepted.
Demand Is For Best Breeds.
He stated that he would be able to
dispose of them at private sale at a
very considerable advance over this
figure. He said there was a time
that he found a ready sale for cheap

MENACE TO DAIRY INDUSTRY
Difficult to Estimate Cost of contsgi-
Gus Abortion Each Year-Breed-
ers Are Secgetive.

tuberculosis is a dread disease. and
It's ra3ages are a heavy burden on
the live stock industry. The loss that
1t entails. however, is not so much to
be dreaded by the live stock men as
the losses caused by contagious abor-
ton. 1t is difficult TO estimate just
what abortion costs the dairy industry
each year; breeders are very secretive
about its presence in their herds
losses are taken quietly and nothing
said Many, too, have contagious abOr-
zion to deal with and are not aware
OF 1t. 1t is not necessary that cow
actually abort TO prove that the dis
case exists. Sterility, irregular heat
and retained afterbirth, are all sym
toms of contagious abortion. Too Of
ten, too, an abortion is explained as
the result of an accident or strain, and
the dairy farmer Iulls himself into
a feeling of false security. The first
essential toward eliminating the dis
ease from the herd is that we be
honest with ourselves and recognize
. that the disease exists.
Eternal vigilance is the price of free
dom from this disease.

LARGE PIG PROFITS
MADE In MINNESOTA
Letting Animals Gather Their
Own Feed Found Economical
and Satisfactory.

With the returns amounting to five
cents minute for the time spent, A
]. Mcclure, of the University of Min
nesota, found that raising 100 pigs
every year was the most profitable
work the men did on his farm last
year. The pigs were raised, figures
completed at the end of the year
show, with one hours time a day. At
the prices for pigs now, the returns
this year on this 365 hours time was
nearly So an hour.
The reduction of work to a mini
mum is the method that the Mcclure
farm uses to increase the return on
the labor. The pigs collect their own
feed in the spring and summer from
rape and alfalfa fields and in the fall
they gather the feed to prepare them
for market by hOgging down field of
10 acres of corn. Eight acres of rape
and alfalfa keep the pigs and the
brood sows in the summer, furnishing
IN a fair season all the feed they will
eat. In September the pigs are turned
into q 15-acre field of corn, beside
which is a four-acre rape field. The
sows that are to be kept over during
the winter are left to clean up this
waste after the pigs are marketed.
Mr.. Mcclure finds that letting the
pigs do their own work is just as sat
isfactory and economical and much
more profitable. He even arranges
the winter quarters so that as little
attention as possible may be required
by the sows. Straw sheds make good
shelters for them and the corn cribs
and feed-boxes are placed as near the
sheds as possible.

SUITABLE HOUSE FOR DUCKS
Fowls Forced to Sit on Damp Ground
Are Liable to Take Cramps and
other Diseases.

Ducks, both old and young. should
have dry. comfortable place TO stay
in at night. If forced to sit on the
damp ground they are liable to take
cramps and cold in the head. The
latter is almost certain to turn TO
roup.
Provide suitable houses if you wish
to be successful. The houses need not
be very expensive, but they should be
substantial, so that they may be used
for the same purpose several years in
succession.
There is usually some shed or
building that can be converted into
a duckhOuse at small expense. Where
only a small flock is kept this plan
is advisable
If the roof is good the rest is easy.
If the Notwithstanding is not suffi-
GENTLY close to keep out drafts in cold
weather, cover the outside with tarred
paper or strip with lath.
A board floor is better than an
earth floor because the ducks will often
stir up the ground in very disagree
able manner where there is the least
sign of moisture.
In cold weather ducks should be kept
in the house because their feet are so
with the cold ground they suffer great
ly and hobble along as though their
backs were broken. However, they
should not be kept housed more than
is really necessary.

but horses which are not good. In
