Hog Cholera Warning

/ Frequent reports Of hog cholera
outbreaks just received by the Uni
ted States Department Of Agricul-
ture arc the occasion for official
warnings urging swine owners to be
on the alert against this disease.
The reports are from scattered areas,
but thus far ghe disease mas appear
ed chiefly in the central west.
As previously pointed out in gov
eminent publications. and addresses
by veterinary officials, the fall months
are the time Of the year when hog
cholera is most prevalent. Septem-
Der, October, and November have for
many years marked the appearance Ut
this rapidlyspreading. infectious
disease.
inns year the control of hog, chol-
era is hampcrcd somewhat by a
tt mporary shortage of serum for I'M
munlzlng susceptible animals. The
situation is made more serious by
the fact that a large proportion Of
swine in the United States have not
been immunized owing to the low
cbb Of cholera in recent years. More
than that, hogs ut this season OF the
year are of good ds1Ie and great
many are being fnttened for market.
Large hogs require more serum for
proper immunizati0n than small pigs,
| the dosage being governed by the
weight OF the animal. Serum COM
panies are now increasing their pro-
duct,on, but us the process of serum
,, manufacture requires several weeks,
stock owners are urged to take
special precautions in the meantime.
y hen serum for immunizing can not
be obtained. sclf-imposcd quarantine

include the exclusion. from hog lois

sanitation of hog lots and houses
should receive attention also with a
view Of destroying possible lurking
| places for the virus. The use Of
disinfectants and also direct sunlight
are effective against hog-cholera in
lection. Outbreaks Of hog cholera
should be reported immediately by
the most direct means to federal and
state sanitary officials who will make
Investigations, diagnoses, and render
such further aid as their field forces
can handle.

OFFICIAL BEEF GRADES

The Department of Agriculture has re- gently promulgated regulations governing the grading of beef. There are five grades or classes, designated as steer beef, heifer Def, COW beef, bull beef and stag beef. Ten tative grades were established in 1928, but last year after several public hearings to sound the sentiment of cattle men, packers, and wholesale and retail dealers, that sen timent was found to be very largely in favor of the standardized grades as presented.
 The system of standardized grading has been in use by the bureau of agricultural economics for several years, and under it millions of pounds have been purchased by the United States lines, many independent steamship lines and thepurchasing depart ments of many institutions, public and pri- vate.
 Now comes the news that the dining car department of the Pennsylvani railroad has decided to buy only such beef as is graded ''blue ribbon" by the Department of Agricul- ture. Vice President Sanders, who has di- rect charge of that division of the railroads activities, predicts that all the other Class A roads will be compelled to follow the lead of the Pennsylvania. All of this is very grat- flying to the producers of high grade beef cattle, and 1t will certainly have thegeneral effect of creating better market for grad ed meats than has heretofore existed.
 If the private consumer will follow the lead of the railroads and insist upon "being shown the government grade marks be- fore ordering roast or a steak from his butcher the new grade regulations will ben eft the home consumer as well as the patron of the dining car.

NEW HOME FOR A. S.S. co.

Seward can well boast of having the fin est steamship office in Alaska, or an office that far surpasses any other of any kind in the Territory. Nothing can even remotely compare to the new offices of the Alaska Steamship Company in the Arcade Build ing. The former quarters were exception ally good but, unfortunately, small. The new quarters are commodious, offering the maximum of comfort ample chairs and set tees, fine ventilation and excellent lighting facilities On the walls hang a number of large framed pictures of vessels owned by the company. J. H. Flickinger, Seward ag- ent for the A. SS. Co.,, cordially extends an invitation to the public to call in and inspect the new home at any time.

Last week Mr.. Binney. noted as
one Of the youngest leaders In
Arctic exploration, recounted ter
rifying situation, when seaplane
in which he and A. G. B. Ellis. the
pilot, were flying was forced down
with a splash by the failure of the
engine. For IA hours they were
tossed and drenched by icy waves
and gradually driven by wind and
current toward the open sea,
where death awaited them. Final
ly, when all hope had fed. their
plight was discovered and they
were rescued by three Norwegian
meteorologists.
The flight, which ended in near
disaster, was undertaken during
an exploring expedition TO Spitz-
bergen, the little.known group Of
islands in the Arctic Circle. This
was the third expedition to the Far
North organized by Mr.. Binney.
and the second that he had led, all
before his 25th birthday.
The beginning of the present

ton Is so rare that there are only
three known cases in England at the
present time, but it is of especial in
terest to medical science because the
purple substance, porphyrin. is closely
allied to the red material, hemoglObin,
that gives blood its color.
No one knows yet why the bodies of
these unfortunate patients should be
manufacturing the wrong pigment.
Prof. Bancroft said, but the fact re-
mains that 1t is constantly being
formed and deposited in their bones.

strongly to the 'invisible light" or
ultraviolet part of the solar spectrum,
SO that the victims of this mysterious
ailment have to wear gloves con-
stantly, and If they go out Of doors in

The only creature that normally
wears porphyrin as part of its body
covering Is a tropical bird, the toura-
CO. parts of whose feathers are stained

per compound known as turacin. Tur-
acin is soluble in weak alkali, so that
when 1t rains and the bird comes into
contact with such alkaline solutions
as occur frequently in nature the poor
touraco bleaches out.
