Eradication Of
Tubercular Hogs
Noticeable Decline of Dis
ease in Swine Reported
From Iowa.

(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture
with current progress in eradicat
ing tuberculosis from cattle, a notice
able decline of the same disease among
swine is taking place. This announce
ment by the bureau Of animal indus
try, United States Department Of Agri-
culture, is based on field observations
and by records of the federal meat
inspection service,
Economic Loss.
A striking example of the effect of
the work has been received by the
department from an Iowa packing.
company which has kept books" ON
such losses for the last seven years.
In 1919 the average loss per hog
caused by tuberculosis infection was
Is cents. This figure Is the economic
loss for hogs slaughtered in the plant.
In 1920 the loss declined to 66 cents,
in 1921 to 40 cents, and in 1922 to 81
cents. Since 1913 the loss has de-
clined further to 26 cents
1--WE have actual knowledge, through
experience" the company adds, that
the tuberculin test applied to cattle
has reduced bovine tuberculosis among
cattle and hogs following them, and
has cleaned up the hogs from the
disease"
Report for Hardin County.
Further evidence is given by the
packers report for Hardin County,
Iowa, which is an area accredited as
free from bovine tuberculosis Dur
ing nine-month's period more than
1000 hogs were shipped from this
county and slaughtered, with an ay-
erage economic loss, caused by tuber-
culosis, of only 4.7 cents each. This
figure is less than a fifth Of the gen.
eral average, which in turn is about
a third of the loss in 1919 when sys-
tematic tuberculosis eradication was
just begun.
An important development of the
work is the discovery that through
out the Centra! West especially, many
poultry flocks are tubercu.ous, and
some infection among swine is trace
able to that source Fowl tubercu-
losis yields readily, however, to meth
DDS of control and eradication. Thus
the outlook for the complete suppress
sion Of tuberculosis among all kinds
Of live stock is encouraging, federal
veterinary officials assert.

Forage Crops for Hogs
Most Economical Plan

The use of forage crops in hog pro-
duction has been advocated and recog-
nized for long time, by experimental
stations and the agricultural colleges
and many farmers have found they
could not afford to raise hogs if pas
lures were not used.
Recent experiments in South Da-
kOta indicate that pigs self-fed on
corn and tankage, on pastures of al
falfa, rape, and bluegrass, will make
a greater daily gain than those fed
in a dry lot. This gain might be only
izing that it is the aim of every feed
er to have his hogs reach a weight OF
200 to 225 pounds in the shortest pos
sible time, the Importance of pasture
cannot be overlooked. The expert
ment conducted at the college indi-
Gated that over period required for
a 50-pOund pig to reach the market
weight OF 225 pounds, those which
had use of forage crops made a say
ing Of 25 days, as compared with
those on dry lot.
1t is also claimed that pigs on good
pasture make more economical gains
These facts seem to be borne out in
the experiment in comparing the
amount Of corn and tankage required
per 100 pounds of live weight. 1t is
stated that distinct saving financial
ly, as we'll as with labor, can be made
by the use of good pasture

Pasture for Ducks

AS to a good pasture for ducks,
short bluegrass is good, but, better yet,
short alfalfa or clover. For egg pro-
duction supply a ration of three parts
corn meal, three parts finely ground
oats, three parts wheat bran and one
part fine flour middlings. Add to every
100 pounds of this mixture one pound
of fine sand, two pounds of grit and
fifteen pounds of beef scraps. If they
are on pasture no other green food
will be needed. They do not need
running water.
Arizona state miner., 1926-10-16
Good Hog Pasture

A good pasture for hogs is oats and
rape, sowing the oats at the rate of
about one bushel per acre, and follow
ing with Dwarf Essex rape, at the rate
of about five or six pounds per acre
is favored.
1t is a good plan to SOW the rape
separately, following the oats, giving
them a light narrowing, if it is desired
Many hog lots or barn lots can be
plowed up and sowed to rape very
profitably. In this way all available
ground will be utilized.

Meat Scrap in Ration

Meat scrap or some other animal
feed high in protein is one essential
constituent of the mash. In some ex-
periments a pen of pullets, on free
range, which did not get meat scrap
or any other protein feed, laid only
DO eggs each in a year, compared
with yields of from 125 to $50 eggs
from pens fed rations containing meat
scrap. The eggs from the pen where
no meat scrap was fed cost % cents
more dozen for feed. Eggs add to
the return from the farm.

Watch Cherry Trees

The owner of cherry trees should
watch them closely for the attack of
cherry leaf spot. This disease causes
yellowish spots to appear on the leaf,
which spread until the entire leaf be
comes yellow in color and drops from
the tree. 1t seriously weakens the
cherry trees and if severe will cause
their death in a few years Much good
may be done by applying sprays ac-
cording to directions in Agricultural
Experiment Station Circular No. 125.

Breeds of White Geese

There are two varieties of white
geese, the Emden and the Chinese.
They are both large varieties. The
Emden, however, is more common and
more generally raised for market than
the Chinese. There is little difference
in the two kinds as to the hardness.
1t is generally believed that the En-
den are a little more domestic than
the Chinese. The Chinese are the
ones which have knob on the head
at the base of the beak.

Dairy Hints


Nobody has more poor relations
than a scrub bull.
Many a good dairy herd has been set
back materially in only one generation
by a poor bull.
Soy beans in the silage increase it's
protein content by about one-half Of
L per cent.
When a calf is born find some iden-
tifying mark and describe it in writing.
Something like: "Irene's calf, irregular
round spot on left shoulder" 1t is

Poultry Notes

In poultry production, the breed is
not so important as the breeding.
Feather picking among hens is as
sociated with over-crowding and lack
of sufficient range. sunshine and air.
To have the laying nests full of
broody hens is a fine way to reduce
the labor of carrying a full egg basket

sOViets Superior Over Capitalism.

THESE successes which we have
L attained not only compel quaint
tative respect, but they imply at the
same time gigantic moral victory,
as they prove the superiority Of our
order compared with the bourgeois
capitalist order.
AS l have already said, in spite of
the fact that We have attained $50 of
the pre-war production in our industry
and 919o in agriculture, there prevails
shortage of goods. Wherein lies the
cause of this? If the proportion be-
tween the quantity of goods produced
by agriculture and the quantity pro-
duced by industry has remained about
the same, and the rate of development
of industry even exceeds the growth
of agriculture, then the chief cause,
apparently, must be sought in another
sphere.
The chief cause of the shortage of
goods is the forced growth of effective
demand.

Peasant Problem Is Changed.

THERE has been a great change in
4 the budget Of the peasant as COM
pared with pre-war times. The nation
alization of the land, the freeing of
the peasants from the burdens of pur-
chase of land from and payment of
rent to the landowners, hand in hand
with the advance of agriculture, alone
increase the purchasing capacity of
the peasants. The freeing of the peas
ants from number of other liabilities
which were part and parcel of the
landlord regime, increases at the same
time the purchasing power of the viii
lage, and therefore the growth of agri-
cultural production of the peasants
involves a greater demand for indus
trial products. Thanks to the consider
able reduction Of the agricultural in
come tax and the increase in the price
Of corn, and thanks to the generous
granting of credits to our organs re-
sponsible for collecting grain, the pur-
chasing power of the village has great
ly increased this year.

Industry $3.50 of Pre-War.

THE present economic situation
l. differs greatly from the original
stage of the New Economic Policy.
Industry has now attained about $50
and agriculture 91qo of the pre-war
standard. At the commencement of
the New Economic Policy there exist
ed hunger and food crisis. Today,
there prevails hunger for industrial
products. If one wished to express
in short formula the chief difference
between the present economic situa-
ton and the situation at the beginning
of the New Economic Policy, one
could say: At that time agriculture
was in a backward condition, and as
result there prevailed thruout the
whole country a severe food crisis;
today it is industry that is in back
ward condition, and as a consequence
we are in the second year Of shortage
of goods.
Thus the importance and the role
of agriculture and industry in the

WTHEN, under Lenin's leadership, we
w carried out the transition to the
New Economic Policy, the extent of
the decline of our country was charac-
terised by the following figures: In
dusrial production amounted to IS
209o and agricultural production
amounted to 1879 Of the pre-war pro-
duction. By comparing these two
figures one could, at the first glance,
arrive at the conclusion that agricul-
ture was in better position than in
dustry.
Such a conclusion, however, would
be extremely superficial, as it would
leave out of account the fact that the
bulk of the agricultural products is
consumed by the peasants themselves,
while almost the whole of the indus
trial products is sent to the market.
At the beginning of the New Econ
omic Policy agriculture sent such an
Insignificant portion of its products to
the market that we experienced at
the time an exceedingly severe food
crisis. The development of our entire
economy, including the development
of industry, encountered before all in
this period the difficulty presented by
the weakness of agriculture. The
workers had to have bread, the town
population had to be supplied with
food, and industry with raw material.
All this was only possible thru the
development of agriculture.
Hence, at that time agriculture was
the weak point in our entire economy,
the strengthening of which was the
necessary pre-condition for the econ
omic reconstruction and further dew
elopment of the whole country.
