In the face of ali the attendant dam
gers, required, of course, such close
care that the wisdom Of some phases
of the inspection system may not have
been always apparent to all concerned.
With swine moving by carloads and
trainloads from producing areas into
public stock yards Of the country, says
the statement, the pens of such yards
are inevitably infected with the COM
mon swine diseases, of which cholera
is the most important. Owing to this
condition federal regulations formerly
required the slaughter of swine. re-
ceived, but after the serum and virus
treatment against hog cholera was
standardized the possibility of reship-
ping immature hogs for further feed
ing resulted in modification of the
rules. Under the plan now in force
swine properly vaccinated and disin-
fected may be reshipped for any pur--
pose, including breeding.
minimizing hogs against cholera is
veterinary procedure, including the
preventive-serum treatment, taking Of
temperatures and observing the condi-
ton of the animal during the test
period. Necessarily the official regu-
lations are of technical character, and
it has come to the attention of the de-
partment of agriculture that In some
cases the rules have been misinterpre-
ted so as to make them appear respon-
sible for fluctuation In the stock-hog
market.
For the information of the public,
the bureau of animal industry outlines
briefly the method Of inspection:
All public stock yards are consid-
cred to be infected and swine are.
therefore, exposed to the contagion
from the time of their entry into the
yards; consequently it is important
that they be immunized promptly af-
ter arrival at such yards. to protect
them against contracting the disease.
For that reason the department OPP
poses the immunization of swine that
have been so exposed for more than
FIVE days. Hogs, though they may not
show physical symptoms of cholera,
may in some instances be affected with
the disease to such an extent that inn
munization will not protect them.
It is not permissible TO immunize
swine for immediate shipment inter-
state If they show symptoms Of con-
tagious or infectious disease.
If considerable percentage of the
animals in a lot Is found to have high
temperatures, the possible presence of.
such disease is Indicated and the AMI
mails are not imrnunized or permitted
to be shipped interstate. 1t Is possible
to have hogs with high temperatures
as a result of conditions surrounding
the shipment to market, in which case

short time.

TIME TO IMPROVE, PASTURES
Clean Up by Cutting OFF Brush, Briars
and Misunderstanding Bare
Spots Is Favored.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Spring is the desirable time Of year
for the improvement of pastures.
Large areas Of permanent pasture
would respond to proper methods Of
improvement which might include the
following:
Keep the pastures clean by cutting
off brush, briars and weeds. Large
stumps, stones and dead trees should
also be removed.
Those areas used for pasture that
would permit narrowing and disking
at the time Of reseeding, applying
lime, fertilizers and manure, etc., may
be greatly benefited. In some sections
terracing may be practiced with salts
factory results.
The application of lime, acid phos-
phate and manure can always be re-
lied upon in most sections as a'means
of adding the necessary increased fer
tility.
Reseeding, particularly in bare
spots, is to be recommended. White
and Japan clover, bermuda, herds
grass, carpet grass and blue grass in
favored sections are commonly used.
AS q rule reseeded pastures should be
lightly grazed the first year. At all
times it is advisable to keep the cattle
off the grass in the spring until well

DAIRY cow is ECONOMICAL
UtiIizes Coarse Materials, InedlbIe to
Humans, and Turns Them Into
Food Material.

Two facts stand out prominently as
reasons for the increased production
and use of milk. The first is that
milk as purchased on the market
usually supplies food material together
with the growth-producing elements
more economically than either meat
or eggs. The second reason is that
the dairy cow is the most economical
producer Of animal food. One great
law of food conservation is to turn
inedibie feeds into edible foods In
the cheapest possible manner. The

mails also are converters Of coarse
roughage into edible foods, but are
not so efficient as the dairy cow.
