CHECK CHOLERA
Disease Is Approaching Epi-
demic Form in Kansas.
Makes Its Appearance in Ma
iority of Counties.

Following conferences held Monday
and Tuesday with J. H. Mercer, state
livestock commissioner, at which DR..
T. P. White, of Washington, in charge
of the hog cholera control work for
the United States bureau of animal
industry, was present, DR.. Harry M.
Graefe, inspector in charge of the gov
eminent bureau of animal industry IN
this state, announced that every effort
would be made to check the wave OF
hog cholera in Kansas which he says
is approaching epidemic form at a
number of points.
The cholera appeared earlier this
year than usual and DR.. Graefe is
backing up his statement mace two
weeks ago that unless systematic eff
forts are put forth in using p-even-
tive measures. and the farmers coop
crate with the veterinaries and the
state and federal departments, the
state is slated for a bad epidemic. He
believes that if proper warning can
be given now many herds over the
state can be saved.
In Most of Kansas Counties.
According to reports received by DR..
Graefe's office, hog cholera has made
its appearance in a majority of the
counties in the state and is approach
ing epidemic form in Geary, Wabaun-
see, Reno and Clay counties. Among
era have been received are Oskaloosa,
Centralia, Marysville, Clay Center,
Seneca, G or n in g, E f h a m,

Hutchinson, Lyons, Emporia, Usage
City, Arkansas City, Peck and Wa
mego. Only few reports have been
received from unties in the extreme
southeast and western portions Of the
state but they are not included in the
principal hog raising section.
In Shawnee County.
The cholera has made its appear
ance in Shawnee county. Several re-
ports from this county have been re-
ceived and Doctor Graefe says that he
found forty dead hogs on a farm near
farmer near Valencia reports the loss
of fifteen this week.
I'VE are simply going to increase
our activity in combating the dis
ease" said Doctor Graefe today. "All
of the veterinaries in the state are be-
ing notified to keep in close touch
with the situation and we are trying
| to acquaint the farmers, with the best
measures for preventing the spread
| of the disease. When cholera first
appears the herd must be quarantined
and the sick hogs isolated from the
others, which should be vaccinated.
Dead animals should be burned imme-
diately and all pens sprayed with a
strong creol disinfectants'
Doctor White, who is making a tour
of the central states, reports that
there is also considerable hog cholera
in Oklahoma. He left Tuesday night
for Minnesota.

The articles all point out the ire

while the country with the larger eX-

Ideals and Politics Won't Mix.
Doctor Yosh:no insists that ideal:

phenomenon which arises from a GER

from America the proud title of {

He lays emphasis on the fact thai
the United States does not entertain
racial prejudices. The anti-Japanest
