Hog cholera serum is the only thing known which will prevent or control hog cholera, Hog cholera serum is nothing more or less than the blood of hogs which have been immunized against hog cholera There are two methods of applying the serum, the single treatment and the serum-simultaneous.

STANCHIONS FOR THE CALVES Youngster win Not Worry About Neighbor Getting Part of His Mess and Will Drink Slowly. Harmful results are frequently brought on in young calves by their drinking milk too rapidly and too much at a time. Feeding small quantities and often, which is the natural plan, is the way to avoid troulle from this source. Where several calves run together stanchions for feeding may contribute to less rapid drinking, for with stanchions the calf is not worrying about one of its neighbors getting part of his mess and is thus encouraged to rink more slowly. wers in waging war | the simultaneous | no i Distemper in Horses.

In buying new cows for the dairy one should buy from farmers who practice rational methods of feeding, preferably from those who do not feed too much grain and rich concen trates.
