HOG crIoLERA WARNING.
Stets vsterinsFfan Luclsey Adyists
Procedure In Putting Down
Disease.

Procedure IN Putting Down
Disease.
Hog cholera has broken out in
the eastern part Of Jasper county
and / desire to strongly warn the
farmers to take active steps to
stop its further spread. most
respectively urge that every farm
err in Jasper county pay close at
ten ton to the following hog chol-
era rules.
(DWatch your hogs closely.
a. If any signs of disease appear,
call a competent veterinarian
promptly. (3)If the disease proves
to be cholera, vaccinate the infect
ed herd and all exposed herds i'm
mediately. (4)Promptly burn all
hogs that die of any disease what
soever.
These simple rules have proved
effective. Since April 1, 1917,
working according to these rules,
the official deputy state veterina-
rians have vaccinated over $500
infected herds and, as a general
rule, the exposed herds. Except
for such accidental outbreaks as
has occurred in Jasper county,
hog cholera is at the lowest ebb
in this state that has ever been
known. If farmers will simply
shut their eyes, quit debating the
fine points of hog cholera and fol-
low these directions, there is no
chance for hog>cholera to ever be-
come widespread in any commun-
ity in the state. For the. past
four years these rules have been
advocated and wherever they
have been followed, hog cholera
has disappeared. In many count
les of this state the cholera is so
scarce that farmers do not need
to vaccinate their hogs at all.
The February 1919 Board of Agri-
culture bulletin gives the names
and addresses of the owners Of
over 1900 herds ofsiolS herds that
have been officially treated. A
few of these bulletinsi are still
available and will be sent on re-
quest.
In 1917, 2476 infected herds,
containing 20 per cent sick ami
mails were vaccinated with q final
loss of IL per cent. In 1918 over
1900 infected herds containing an
average of 10 per cent sick hogs
were vaccinated with final loss
of 8 per cent. The names and
addresses of the owners of these
hogs appear in the February 1919
bulletin. In 1917, 872 farmers
refused to vaccinate and took a
loss of 81 per cent. In 1918, 155
farmers who refused to vaccinate,
took a loss of 80 per cent. In
1918, 155 farmers who refused to
vaccinate, took a loss of IS per
cent. No claim is made that
