GERMAN SOCIALISTS
AFFECT TO OPPOSE
GOVERNMENT POLICY

Copenhagen, Sept. 24.-The Ger
man majority parties cannot, in
their effort to introduce a parlia-
mentary government with respons-
ible ministry, count on active par
ticipation unless the policy hereto
fore followed by the government is
materially altered or abandoned.
This is the gist of long editorial
in which the Norwaerts of Berlin.
the socialist organ, serve notice that
the time has not arrived for the So
cialists to enter the ministry.
IF eventually the socialists enter
the government-and such a time
maye come'-the newspaper says.
they will do so in order to fulfill
their great historic mission OF help
ing peace and altering the present
governments policy in accordance
with their convictions regarding
what the people need"
Comments from various socialist
papers along the same line are
printed by the Norwaerts.

GERM Is CAUSE OF CHOLERA
Principal Factor of Prevention Is
Serum Treatment Developed by
Agricultural Department.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
The most destructive ailment of
swine is hog cholera, which kills APP
proximately 90 per cent of all hogs
that die of disease. 1t Is caused by a
germ readily transmitted from sick to
well hogs and may, at times, remain
active in the soil and other materials
for long periods. Hog cholera has
taken from the swine raisers an aver
age toll of S3O,O00,000 annually, for the
past 40 years, and the loss has been as
high as $65,000000 in a single year.
Thus for years the hog industry has
been greatly handicapped. The enor-
nous number of animals destroyed has
been due largely to the rapid spread
of the disease and the inability of
farmers to recognize the ailment. and
in many instances to the lack of at
tention to proper precautions to pre-
vent its Introduction. The symptoms
of hog cholera are not such as readily
to distinguish 1t from certain other
diseases of swine, and a sick pig al
ways should be regarded as a possible
danger to the entire herd. Therefore
any pig showing signs of Illness should
be separated from the other animals.
The principal factor of hog-cholera
prevention Is the preventive serum
treatment developed by the bureau of
animal industry of the United States
department of agriculture. There are
two methods of treatment. The sim
pie method, serum alone, protects ami
mails so treated for a limited period
only, difficult to determine but usually
ranging from three weeks to three
months. The other method, simultane-
GUS incubation, consists of the injec-
ton Of serum at one point and a small
dose of hog cholera virus at some
other point, usually in the opposite
side of the animal. The great advan-
tage Of this treatment is that it gives
permanent protection TO the animals
I'm practically all instances. However,
this involves the use of virus, the &C
tive agent of cholera, and should,
therefore, he intrusted only to skilled
persons.
