WARNING OF
HOG CHOLERA
County Agent Oswald Tells OF
Serum Treatment Being Eff
fective Limited Time

The attention of those, who nocu-
lated their hogs with anti-hog cholera
serum several months ago, is called
to the fact that the immunity received
from this incubation is not perma-
ncnt, and in order to insure the keep
ing of cholera out of the herd it is
necessary to repeat the dose of serum
within from sixty to ninety days.
Quite number Of those having inocu-
lated " the early part of the season,
who do not expect to butcher in the
near future, are advised to consider
the rcinoculation. In looking over
the hog cholera situation in the county
il is believed, without doubt, that a
great deal of good was done by the
campaign against hog cholera. No
doubt thousands of hogs have been
saved, and il is hoped that the farmers
will still continue to lend their sup
port in this movement to eradicate rs
far as possible hog cholera from the
county.

Rural Rat Clubs.

In any rural community badly in- Tested with rats, it is good plan for farmers to form rat clubs and offer prizes for destroying the rodents. The younger members of the community as we'll as adults should be allowed to compete and the prizes should be awarded periodically, as once month. A first, second and third prize are suggested for those who bring in the greatest number of rat tails. Specific rules governing the contests should be made at the start, and instruction as to proper methods of trapping or other wise killing rats should be part of the program for each meeting of the club. Prizes may be provided hy priv ate donation or even by assessment of members. The plan gives better satis- faction than system of straight re- wards, because it arouses more en- thusiasm and costs less.-D. Lantz in The House Rat.
