ENORMOUS LOSSES
FROM CHOLERA

In the fiscal year ending March 81
1914. over 100000 hogs of all ages
were lost through disease on American
farms. These had value Of over
$67,000,000. In the year ending Mar.
81, 1918, only 2,7Ol 1925 were lost;
but these were worth $52,535,315.
So, though the number of hogs lost has
been greatly decreased by the work Of
the disease-control agencies, the mon
etary loss is still enormous.
This loss has direct beaFing on the
cost Of living. and at times has threat
ened the life Of great industry.
There are a present ove8 100000
hogs in this country-thej largest num-
Der ever recorded. Assuming that
these animals will be marketed at an
average weight of 200 pounds at the
average market price for the year, this
crop will return to th4 producers about
$3,O00,000,000. If hog cholera should
rage as it did in 1918, the loss would
be near $300,000.g00.
Complete Eradication Probable
Without the efforts of Federal and
State Agents in The proper application
of serum and Improved methods of
handling outbreaks of hog cholera,
this loss would be entirely probable.
With the support and cooperation of
the local authorities, farmers and 9th
ers, the complete eradication of hog
cholera is within the bounds of proba-
bilities. The saving of this enormous
annual loss to the farmer would be re-
Elected in the retail price of pork to
the consumer.

or another | have said to thousands
of boys in this and other countries:
''Your first duty in life is toward
your afterself. So live that your af-
terseIf-the man you ought to be-
may in his time be possible and actual.
Far away in the years he is await
ing his turn His body, his brain, his
soul are in your boyish hands. He
cannot help himself.
what will you leave for him?
Twill it be body unspoiled by lust
or dissipation; a mind trained to think
and act; nervous system true as
dial in its response to the truth about
you? Will you, Boy, let him come as
man among men in his time2
"Or will you throw away his inher-
itance before he has had the chance
to touch it? Will you turn over to
him brain distorted, mind diseased;
will unframed to action; a spinal
cord grown through and through with
the devil grass we call wild oats9
''WilI you let him come, taking your
place. gaining through your expert
ence. happy in your friendships, hall
lowed through your joys, building on
them his own2
"Or will you fling it all away, de-
creeing, wanton-Iike, that the man you
might have been shall never be?
This is your problem in life-the
problim vastly more important to you
than any or all others. How will YOU
meet it, as man or as a fool? 1t IS
your problem today and every day, and
the hour of your choice is the crisis
in your history"
