VACCINATION is INSURANCE
AGAINST HOG CHOLERA
/. f. Ncwsom, Dept of Pathology,
Colorado Agricultural College


/. f. Ncwsom, Dept of Pathology,
Colorado Agricultural College
As there seems to be a consider
able outbreak of hog cholera in the
eastern part of the state. a ritera-
ton. of some of the well know facts
of this disease may not be amiss.
Cholera is the most serious disease
of hogs which we have and the only
one that causes unusually large loss
es in all aged animals. 1t is hardly
conceivable that so or rs per cent of
a herd of hogs of various ages would
be lost from any other disease. In
spite of this there seems to be muck
uncertainty as to the diagnosis, one
regarding it as pneumonia, another
as necrotic enteritis, and various other
diseases.
Vaccination of herds in which the
disease is already widespread is Of
ten disappointing, but vaccination as
a preventative measure is almost alb
solute and will be found profitable.
This procedure is the greatest boon
to the hog raiser which has ever
been discovered, but unless it is used
it cannot be expected to be very help
full. Everyone owning hogs in a
district where the disease is known
to exist should Immediately vaccinate
rather than wait until the disease at
tacks the herd. This will be found
excellent and profitable insurance.

PRICE MAKING FACTORS IN
MARKETING OF POTATO CROP

From Farmers Bulletin 1917, U. S.
Department of Agriculture, MAR
keting Main Crop Of Potatoes
An estimated yield above four bush
els (of potatoes) per capita has been
usually followed by season of low
or falling prices, while yield around
three bushels per capita has been
often followed by rising prices. For
yields between these points the indi-
cations are not clear, but the general
price tendencies during many such
seasons intimate that in cases of
doubt the chance of gain may be hard
ly worth the cost and risk of long
storage.
The chief price-making factors are
acreage, total supply, losses from rot.
disease, or freezing, the demand, and
the competition with imported pota-
toes or with the early crop. There
are also fuctuating prices caused by
weather and conditions of transporta-
ton.
Crop and market news supplied by
the United States Department of
Agriculture includes crop and mar
ket reports and summaries of many
kinds published at eight field stations
iocdteu III the prominent SnpplnR
sections and at about dozen market
stations, including the Washington
office. These reports contain the
necessary facts of production, con-
dition, shipment, prices, demand and
quality.
By persistently using and compar-
ing reports from day to day, and sea-
son after season, they become more
and more useful in showing the po-
tato holder when, how, and where TO
sell.
The general condition and course
of the market is best indicated by
the leading grades of the most i'm
portant commercial varieties in the
largest and most active markets.
/ The reader soon learns to look for
certain price changes under given
conditions and to detect the early
signs of coming price movements.
Among the regular price develop
ments to be looked for in average
seasons is a comparatively low price
at digging time with some gain as
shipments decrease or when winter
conditions begin, then several months
Of moderate ups and downs, and then

dolor.
Ninguna voz humana que Sc olga,
sino la del que va orar enterrar; +;
ningln movimiento de vida, sino de la
que vegeta, esa misna poca: Ell rayo
de la guerra duerme, la palabra de la
elocuencia Gala, de los siglos que han
pasado no quedan nj segundos de ge-
neraciones enteras nj memoria, todas
las riquezas de la conquista y todo Ell
poder d conquistador han venido a
reducirse un hoyo, en- donde solo
entire la pala que SAGA y Ell pison que
rellena.
