SPREAD HOG CHOLERA GERMS
Pigeons Carry Infection on Feet From
One Farm to Another and In.
feet Neiohborhood.

Unconfined pigeons flying from farm
to farm frequently carry the germs Of
hog cholera on their feet and infect
a neighborhOOd, which is then at a
loss to understand how the outbreak
Of cholera came about.
The same is true of buzzards. On
several occasions when Investigations
Of sources of hog cholera infections
were made by a veterinarian the buzz
card was found to be to blame. Statis-
tics published show that pigeons are
responsible for about 20 per cent Of
the spread of hog cholera and it is
estimated that they caused in this way
in 1915 about S15,OOO,OOO damage in
the United States.

Ticks suck as much as 1900
pounds Of blood a year from
a 1,O00-pound steer.
Ticks reduce a cows milk Is

Daylight Law Cuts GasbiIIs.

The manager Of the Glasgow gas
works in Scotland has issued a state
ment showing the effect Of the new
daylight bill upon the gas consumption
Of that city. Last year the consump-
ton of gas from six o'clock until mid
night for three weeks amounted to
124, $4,000 cubic feet. 1t was 1O4,-
$4,000 this year for the same period
a saving Of 20,00O,OO0 cubic feet. This
means an average saving of nearly q
million feet each evening. There Is an
increase of over 100000 cubic feet
during the remaining Is hours Of the
day, due to the great demand for gas
for industrial purposes-chiefy from
the government-to meet the demands
Of war.
