Government to Aid In Linn, Jones and

Cedar Rapids. Sept. 1S.-Hog cholera
is so serious in Linn county that the
United States government, in its efforts
to conserve food and feed the allies and
it's own army, has named DR.. }. X.

Dr.. Pooley is just back from Des

tation with state authorities. For three
years he has been government meat IN
spector at the Sinclair plant, but the
federal authorities have taken him on
of his work to fight hog cholera IN
Iowa, his territory being the three
counties named.
DR.. Pooley feels that the need for
corporation with the farmers to save
their herds is as important piece OF
work as shouldering a gun. Since re-
ceiving his appointment he has not
travelled over Linn county but mas
made trips in other parts of Iowa.
From reports, however, he is aware OF
the seriousness of the situation in Linn.

Des Moines, Sept. 1S.-County clinics
on tuberculosis, to be held by the
county medical associations in various
counties of the state are being plan
ned by A. E. Kepford, state lecturer on,
Cross work in Iowa, The first clinic
is to be held at Clarion. Wright coun-
,ty, Friday of this week. - ~
z Dr.. Kepferd of the board of control
hopes t. accomplish three things, at
least, by means of these clinics; the
stamping out of tuberculosis thru an
early diagnosis of the cases, the arous-
ing of the people to the perls of this
insidious disease; and the stirring up
of interest among the members of the
county medical organizations in tuber-
culosis.
The county medical associations will
have the cooperation of specialists on
tuberculosis work in this state. includ-
ing Dr. H. V. Scarborough. superln-
tendent of the state tuberculosis nos
pital at Oakdale. his assistant, DR..
Cunningham, and other specialists.
All Day Clinic Planned.
The plan of the clinic includes all
day work on the part of the physicians
with an evening meeting along the
popular order planned to interest the
public in preventive tuberculosis mea-
sures. The evening meetings will be ad-
dressed by DR.. kepford and others.
Printed literature on the white plague
will be distribuated at these meetings.
In these war times there is more
danger of the spread of tuberculosis
than ever declared DR.. Kepford today
in discussing the plan OF holding county
clinics.
With people of limited means there
rs a tendency to under nourlshment
and nothing will give greater opportun-
ty to tuberculosis to gain hold than
an under nourished system. Then we
are under a greater nervous strain
many of us. The high cost of living IS
causing not a few to do without bodily
comforts, warm dry homes and care
full sanitation, all so essential in keep
ing the human system immune to the
inroads of this dread disease

FATTEN EARLY PIGS.
First Fall Markets Highest-Pastures
and Grain ForaQes Economical.

Pigs which were narrowed early and
are about six months old at this time
may profltably be finished now and
rushed off to market says the United
States department OF agriculture. The
early fall market has been the highest
market for a number Of years, because
the number Of well-tinished hogs ar
irving at this season Is limited.
Pigs may be fattened quickly and
cheaply on nutritious pasture when
supplemented by a full grain ration.
After dcducting the pork which would
have been produced by the same
amount of grain fed In dry lot, I'LL acre
Of these pastures produces from three
to six hundred pounds Of pork. The
full fattening power of the grain is
realized as we'll as a profit on the pas
ture consumed.
In the corn belt and eastern states
alfalfa, clover, and rape give best re-
suits. Pigs should be continued on
these feeds until fat. usually for per-
iod Of six weeks at least. Alfalfa and
clover may be pastured as long as for
aye is required. and they will produce
the largest gains due to pasture. An
acre OF alfalfa furnishes pasture for
fourteen to sixteen 15O-pound hogs
during this short fattening season
while clover will carry from three to
four hogs less per acre. Rape Is an
excellent forage and although 1t does
not produce as much pork per acre as
the two legumes previously mentioned.
it returns very good profits for the
trouble and expense Of planting tie
crop. It affords pasture for a period
Of four to six weeks for ten to twelve
l5o- pound hogs per acre.
If the pigs are hand fed it will pay
to 20 slow the first week and graduAl-
" get them on full feed. After they are
accustomed to the method Of feeding.
they may be pushed along as rapidly
as possible without much danger from
!css Of appetite. Even on leguminous
pasture some protein supplement-. such
as tankage, should be fed with the
grain In the proportion Of one part OF
tankage to ten or fifteen parts Of grain.
4 daily ration equal to 4 per cent or
as per cent Of the live weight Is the
maximum amount of grain that a pig
will consume.
The self-feeding inethotlis a very ef-
5n:1a;;a..t. ssss;s.e.n es feeding during this
period, and produces results equal to.
or better than, those obtained by hand
feeding. Grain Is consumed more rap
idly and economically, causing the pig
to attain marketable weight In short
err time and with o smaller amount Of
grain.
