FARM
ANInAl.
HALT HOG CHOLERA RAvAGES
Farmers Should Insist on Animals
Being vaeeinated by compe-
tent Veterinarian.

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture.)
Farmers should insist that all the
STOCK hogs which they purchase for
feeding purposes should be properly
yaccinated by competent and consci-
entious veterinarians in order to pre-
vent the spread of hog cholera. I'M
like the larger stock yards of the coun-
try, which are properly protected by
qualified government representatives.
many of the smaller local yards are en-
tirely without safeguards against
cholera.
Immature hogs go from the farms OF
origin mainly because of lack of feed
or on account of disease. The pur-
chaser who buys such sick hogs on
the market for feeding purposes usual
~ introduces disease into his home
herd. To stimulate production and
to conserve our available pork supply
none but vaccinated, immunized
healthy hogs should be maintained in
the feed lot. If the farmer wishes to
aid in increasing food supplies, he
should help increase our hog supply
by routing disease.
The practice of buying hogs from
public stock yards for feeding and
stocking purposes, a custom which has
been intensified in this war emergency,
has to large degree complicated the
work of controlling hog cholera. In
many cases, owing to improper equip
ment for immUuization and disinfec-
ton of hogs, new centerS of infection
have been introduced in communities
previously free from the disease, and
the movement of hogs from public
stock yards having no supervision by
state or federal authorities and where.
treatment for the prevention of chol-
era is not compulsory is a serious
handicap in the fight to prevent the
spread of Infection.
Some losses have resulted from
shipments Of stocker hogs even when
originating at public stock yards hav-
ing government inspection, particular
ly in the early beginning of extensive
movements of these animals for feed
ing purposes. Several factors were
responsible, such as improper equip
ment for immunization and diSinfec-
ton, insufficient doses of serum for
hogs exposed to infection, the appli-
cation of treatment promiscuously by
anyone chosen by the buyer of the
hogs, and the use of the serum-alone
treatment, which produces an immuni-
ty of very short duration. These are
proofs positive that "haste makes
waste" but these Objectionable fea-
lures are being overcome. Where
proper equipment is being installed,
dosage of serum increased and the
treatment placed in the hands of COM
petent veterinarians, losses occurring
in shipments of this character have
been reduced to a minimum.
There is reason to believe that with
the various agencies in each state,
such as county agents and farm bu-
reaus, interested in the increased pro-
duction of meat animals, system of
exchange could be established to bring
together farmers with a surplus of
hogs and no feed and those having
more feed than hogs, with a view of
having the transfer of these animals
effected locally and avoid the long and
dangerous journey to public stock
market and back to farms oftentimeS
in the same community.

SAVED CITY FROM REDS
MAYOR OF SEATTLE REFUSED TO
BE iNTIMIDATED.
Shames Labor Men for Allowing
Anarchists to Rule-General
Strike is Ended.

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 11.-Mayor Ole
Hanson issued the following statement
regarding Seattle's general strike:
Two years ago $4,000 wOrkmen
were employed In the industries of
Seattle. There are now $4,000 The
unions have admitted to their ranks
under the stress of war conditions
every anarchist and l. w. w. who de
sired to join. These men have secured
control of many labor organizations.
The conservative members have shown
their yellow streak by allowing the
foes of organized government to run
their unions and their affairs.
when the shipyard strike was
called the men went out unwilIingly in
most instances, although there is a
feeling that the lower paid men were
not getting a sufficient wage when fig
ured on the present cost of living.
Then the radicals, having read of
the revolution in Petrograd tried TO
duplicate the initial steps of the same
here. They wanted to run our light
plant and all Industries. They had for
gotten the lesson the anarchists in Ger
many acquired when they tried the
policy of ruthlessness.
II notified the strike committee that
at eight O'Clock everything would OPP
crate. Everything is activity in Sc
attic this morning. Every municipal
car Is running
This is test of uniOnism or /. w.
W.-ism. If any one owes higher alle-
glance to any organization than they
do to this country, they are traitors
and should be treated as such.
"The unions of the nation are on
trial. They are either American Fed
Grafton of Labor loyalists, or anarchis-
tic traitors"
Seattle's general strike, the first of
its kind and scope in America, ended
at noon Tuesday, the hour set by the
general strike committee for the
workers to return to their places.

officers, will remain an duty here I'M

Washington, Feb. 13.-The Victory
Liberty loan to be offered to the
American people in April will be for
approximately $6,000,0O0,0O0 and will
consist of short-term bonds providing
a comparatively high return to the

increased It is certain that another

fiscal year and possibly others there
