Art and the Hdddock

On one of the piers in Portland an
old fslImonger told the legend of the
queer markings on the haddock. Just
abaft the fsh's gills are two dark
blotches, like bruises. one on each
side. And from each of these marks
runs n straight dark line back toward
the tail. The paddock, said this fish
erman. was the fish with which Christ
fed the multitude Though that sounds
unlikely. This so annoyed the devil
that he tried to avenge himself on the
species. He seized one, holding 1t
tightly (hence the bruise mark). but
ii slipped away. The devils finger nails
made the long scratches on each side;
since when all haddocks carry that
pattern. And beauty, in any art. Is
lust rs elusive as that paddock. 1t
cannot be nabbed between the thumb
and finger of any manifesto.-Chris
topher Morley. in the Saturday Re
view of Literature.

PREVENT CHOLERA
AMONG SWINE HERD

approximately per cent of the
hogs on farms in the United States
oled of cholera last year, says the
United States Department of Agricul-
lure. In round numbers the loss
amounted to 2,250OOO hogs valued at
approximately S29,393, 900. Nine states
each lost more than 100000 head Of
nogs from the disease.
While the disease is highly conta-
gious and is difficult to control, the
losses have been much higher than
they should be, since a preventive Sc
rum is available, say department ex-
perts. This serum, used before animals
get sick, combined with strict santa
ton and thorough disinfection after
outbreaks, is the most effective known
control measure.
Dr. g. c. Lipp, a South Dakota vet
erinarian, urges thorough cleanup
IL 1t has not already been DONE All
accumuations of cobs must be burned.
Then remove the manure to fields
where no hogs are allowed II pos
slble, the lots should stand vacant dur
ing the winter. Pillow all yards early
in the spring and give the hogs new
temporary pastures for a time. Sprin-
kle the yards as soon as they are clear
with air-slaked lime.
After yards have been cleaned and
disinfected, the pens must get SINH
lar treatment. Scrape out all manure,
feed and dried accommodations with a
hoe or spade. Then spray floors,
troughs, walls and partitions with a So
luton of sheep dip made by adding
twelve tablespoonfuls of dip to each
gallon of water. Use a spray pump II
possible because it drives the disin-
fectant into the cracks and corners.
Repeat the process at frequent inter
walls, allowing free circulation of air
and plenty of sunshine. After COM
pleting the disinfecting the entire in
terror of the house should be thor
oughly whitewashed
Such a cleaning Is not expensive
and greatly reduces the probability Of
cholera next year. Even though no
disease has been present on the place
during the past season such a process
Is well worth while

Essential Fall Factors
for Success With PIGS

A special effort should be made at
this season to keep the fall filters
growing and thrifty. The sows and
pigs should be furnished with shelter
from the cold rains and the cold
nights. Experience has shown pure
bred breeders that they cannot rely
on the temperate winters and that
shelter will prevent pneumonia, bad
colds, and general unthriftiness. A
moderate quantity of straw or leaves
should be used for bedding-not so
much that the pigs will not be able
to get out of the sow's way.
When the pigs are old enough to
eat feed them in a creep. A little
shelled corn or skim milk is a good
feed to start them on. Extra feed
pays at this time, the animal hus-
bandrymen at Clemson college say, be-
cause the pigs are making a cheap
gain and will be In good condition. for
weaving. Forage can be supplied at
this time by rye and rape. 1t is espe-
cially desirable to have enough forage
to carry the sows and pigs until
freezing weather. If forage is not
available, more liberal use Of good
protein supplement is necessary at
this time because the hogs are depend
ing upon the feeder for their supply.
Don't feed lice. A little time and
trouble will rid the house and hogs Of
these parasites. Crude oil or a good
coal-tar dip will give results.

There appears to be no economy In
trying to raise pigs without grain.
Extra time spent with sows when

in part of the night in the hog barn
when necessary.
Lice should never be permitted to
remain on the hogs any longer than
their presence is known.
