FARMERS LOSE HOGS.

Hog cholera is playing havoc with
hogs in the western part of the coun-
ty according to reports coming from
that section. George Burress had
sixty nice ones to die recently that
he was feeding for the spring mar
ket. Others also have suffered hea-
Wy losses. with the present high
prices being paid for hogs, farmers
can Ill afford to lose them, and II
behooves every farmer who raises
hogs to care for them as never be-
fore. II used to be that this disease
was more prevalent than now and
caused the death of hundreds OF
hogs in the county every year, but in
recent years the death rate has been
greatly decreased.-tLebanon En-
