Control Swine Brucellosis


This Is the season when hog rails
ers should be taking steps to elimi-
nate the hazard of brucellosis in
their swine herds. according To
County Agent George Vapaa. Bru-
eeIlosis may cause the premature
birth of dead pigs or the birth OF
pigs which are so weak that they
die In a short time.
One Of the most effective pre-
ventive steps Is to make certain
that boars purchased for breeding
the spring pig crop are free of the
disease.
The agent suggested that farm
ers buy boars only from herds
known to be free of the disease. If
that Is not possible. he urged far
mers to have veterinarian test
newly-purchased boars for brucel-
losis. The boards should be kept
separate from the home herd for
about 30 days and then tested again
before being used in breeding
program.

TREE SAFETY HELPS KEEP
CHRISTMAS HAPPY

Christmas is supposed to. be a
happy time of year. and a few safe
ty precautions with the tree will
help keep your Yule season gay.
Stand the tree in a large bucket
of wet sand or in a holder with a
water container in the bottom Dry
Christmas tree needles are a fire
hazard and the water helps keep
the needles moist. Moist needles
also stay on the tree longer.
Be sure that tree light cords,
sockets and plugs are in good con-
dition. Place the tree near an out
let fused for Is ampheres. This
means the fuse will blow easily if
the load is too heavy or if short
circuit develops You'll also keep
from tripping over unnecessary ex-
tension cord.
For safety's sake, be sure the
Underwater Laboratory label is
on any string of lights you buy.
Look for parallel-wired strings of
lights having a fiber washer press
ed against the bulb socket. The
washer helps keep burnable ma
terial out of the socket and lessons
