VACCINATION ENDS HOG
CHOLERA LOSS. WORRY

Don't worry about hog cholera
vaccinate and be on the safe side.
That is the advice of DR.. w. A. Bill
ings, extension specialist in veterin-
airy medicine at University Farm.
"There are millions of unvaccinated
hogs in this country and whenever
this condition prevails an epidemic
may be expected" says DR.. Billings.
"Just because the losses from cholera
have been light the last few years,
thousands of farmers are gambling
that they will get by again this
season. No Minnesota farmer should
forget that this disease may appear
at any time and unless swine growers
more generally protect their hogs, an
epidemic may occur.
Vaccination with anti-hog cholera
serum and virus is the only way to
prevent this disease. There is abso-
lutely no drug, feed, chemical, miner
al or tonic that has any value in the
prevention of cholera. All such claims
are fraudulent. Cholera is a sepcifc
infectious disease. 1t is not caused
by filth, wrong feeds or mismanage-
ment. The germ of the disease must
be present before it can start. Don't
wait until the herd is sick before vac
cinating. Hog cholera vaccination
should be regarded as preventive
and not cure-all to be sought after
once the herd is down sick with the
disease" DR.. Billings emphs) ICES.

TO CHRISTEN "CHIEF"
AT RASPBERRY DAY

How does one christen a raspber-
ry? That is a question which just
now is puzzling w. H. Alderman,
chief of the division Of horticulture
at University Farm. On July 10, the
annual Raspberry Day is to be held
at the University Fruit Breeding
Farm near Excelsior and the out
standing feature of the program is
to be the christening Of the new
raspberry called "Chief" (Minn 223),
with Professor Alderman administ-
ering the rites. 1t is believed that
this will be the first time any fruit
has been given such recognition, at
least in Minnesota.
"Chief" is an offspring of the fam
Gus Latham variety of raspberry
which was developed several years
ago at the fruit farm of the univer-
sity and which is now known all over
the world to such an extent that
Minnesota nurserymen and growers
are literally being swamped with
orders for plants. Although not yet
so well known, the "Chief" is super
ior in several respects to its parent,
Latham, and is due to make perhaps
an even greater reputation, accord
ing to the university fruit breeding
specialists. For some time the new
variety has been known as Minnesota
223, but the name of "Chief" was re-
capt1x, ohocop w a cto%ou,;do oopfocf
conducted by the State Horticultural
Society through its monthly publica-
ton, the Horticulturist.
The Raspberry Day program, aside
from the ceremony mentioned, has
not been fully worked out, but will
include tour of the fruit farm for
inspection of the experimental plots,
a showing of new varieties, discus
sions of timely fruit topics and an
swering of questions presented by
visitors.

PRUNE PERENNIALS
JUST AFTER BLOOMING

Pruning early Towering perennials
Immediately after they have bloomed
will result in more vigorous growth
and more bloom next year, says L.
E. Longley of the division of horti-
culture at University Farm. Mime
sofa shrubs which should be pruned
right after blooming include lilacs,
spirea, climbing roses and bush
honeysuckles.
The chief aim in pruning, Mr..
Longley explains, should be to cut
out the old wood. Branches should
be removed to a side branch which
will grow out and replace the portion
removed, or some of the large, older
branches may be cut back to the
crown. This will result in a more
natural growth, whereas shearing off
the top results in an undesirable
formal effect, rather than natural
istic effect which should be the aim
in home landscaping.
In pruning climbing roses, the old
wood, or large part of it, should be
cut out and the young canes allow
ed to come on. Shrubs such as dog
wood, grown for the red twigs,
should be cut back rather heavily to
promote considerable new growth,
since only new wood has the red col

MORGAN GRAIN COMPANY

services of Robert Roger.

On such shrubs as mock oranges
and honeysuckles, blooming wood is
formed the previous season. There
fore it is best not to prune them dur
ing the dormant season because at
that time much Towering wood might
be removed.

Stain Stands Unchanged
in Drive on Re-
ligion.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Deter-
mination of Soviet Russia to carry
on propaganda against religious
prejudices" was indicated today by
Josef Stain, Soviet dictator, in a
message to the Evening World,
which showed he stood unchanged
on previous declarations on the sub
ject.
Stain referred to the policies of
the Communist party, which con-
trolls the SoVietS, as guaranteeing to
citizens the right to adhere to any
religion, but at the same time guar
anteeing the right of every citizen
ito combat by argument, by prop
uganda and agitation, any and all
religion"
While not answering the query
directly, he referred to an earlier
statement containing the above
observation.
Stains reply said in part:
1.-THE party (Commmist) can not
be neutral toward religion and does
conduct anti-religious propaganda
against all and every religious pre-
JUDGE because it stands for science,
while religious prejudices run coun-
ter to science because all religion Is
something opposite to science. Cases
such as recently occurred in Amer
lea, In which Darwinists we're prose-
cuted in court, can not occur here,
because the party carries out a pol
icy of the general defense of
science"
