Decline In Rate OF
Hog Cholera Vaccination

A gradual drop in numbers of
pigs vaccinated against hog chol-
era during the past few years has
been noted by the u. S. Department
of Agriculture reports county ag-
ricultural agent, George Vapaa.
Swine breeders and farm organi-
cations have expressed concern
over the downtrend.
They point out that although
there is no evidence that the Incl
dence of hog cholera is increasing,
fewer vaccinations could mean in
creased chances Of outbreaks of the
disease.

WAUSAU, Wis. -(P)- A 54-
year-old farmer who had no maple
trees finally found some use for the
maple syrup-making equipment a
friend gave him back in 1884. But
it cost him $3.50 in Federal Court
for unlawful possession of home
made whiskey.
Milford chronicle., 1958-06-06

For number of years prior to
1852, an average of about so per
cent of the annual u. S. pig crop
was vaccinated against hog chol-
era, Mr.. Vapaa notes. But during
the past years, the number of
animals receiving vaccinations has
gradually declined, reaching a low
of just under 40 per cent of the
pig crop in 1857.
Hog cholera was first reported
in the United State 125 years ego
