PLAN ADOPTED
BY DUROC men
Mercer Swine Association Takes
Important Venture With Assur-
ance Of Specialists.
Especial to The Argus.)

AIedo, May 25.-At a recent
meeting of the members and Of
ficials of the Mercer County Duroc
Breeders association, a plan for
the guarding against loss by hog
cholera, never attempted before,
was adopted.
The new plan had been explained
to all the members month preVi-
GUS by 2. S. Rlchey of the local
farm bureau, and since that time
had been under discussion fire.
quently. The project as proposed
is that a clear concentrated anti
hog cholera serum be purchased
and administered by local veterin-
arians. Heavy doses of virus will
be given with the serum and ap-
proximately eight weeks after the
administering Of the serum and
virus there will be administered
virus alone to all spring pigs in
the herds.
The administration of the virus
is for the determination and as
surance that owners will be in
a position TO place a guarantee on
the animals to insure the purchaser
against loss by hog cholera AS a
feature this idea has never been
by any breed organiza-
ton as it will be a complete pro-
lection against hog cholera, there
by, protecting purchasers in way
never before attempted.

the veterinarian department and J.
L. Tiffany, general manager, both
of the Lederle Antitoxine labora-
tories of New York City, made a
personal visit here in April and
after comforting with local Off
Gals were highly in favor of the
project, declaring it most feasible.
The virus and serum to be used
by the association arrived today,

PREDICT RECOVERY
OF SWEDEN FROM
AFTER-WAR ILLS

Stockholm -Sweden's complete
future recovery from a series of
painful operations for postwar ills
is forecast in the official economic
report of the Swedish foreign Of
fee commerce department just
made public. Its principal note Of
optimism is the Swedish exchange.
After year and half of dehation
and international liquidation still
under way, the Swedish krona is
virtually at par.
The government experts find that
the greatest obstacles to economic
recovery lie in the competition of
countries with deprecated currency
and in the fact that wages have not
yet been sufficiently reduced. Coun-
tries with low exchange can dump
goods in Sweden at prices against
which Swedish manufacturers can
not compete. Likewise, in the for
eign markets, Sweden is severely
Handicapped because of her high
exchange rate.
The report states that there is
strong tendency toward revival in
many lines OF industry but that the
natural process of building up is
delayed by unsettled conditions in
central and eastern Europe. the
monetary troubles and the uncom-
pleted process of wage adjustment.
The foreign Office finds that dur
ing the second half of 1921 and the
first quarter of this year there was
observed slight increase in the
activities of Sweden's basic indus
tries accompanied by expansion in
foreign trade, especially in timber,
pulp and paper.
Although great interest has been
shown in an early return to the
gold standard, the foreign office re-
ports that doubts have been ex-
pressed OF the wisdom of adopting
the American dollar as basis of
parity. as suggested by some finan-
cial experts
Bank savings and deposits show
a marked drop during the first
quarter OF the year. This is at
tributed to consumption of capital
during the period of depression.
Never has the stock exchange
witnessed such drop in values of
stocks, the market having been af-
fected. says the report. by the
heavy losses suffered by industrial
corporations and the non-activity
Il others.
