| HOG CHOLERA CALLS FOR
| YEARLY IMMUNIZATION
It has been suggested that efforts
hog |
While |
| should be made to eradicate
| cholera in the United States.
eradication is desirable, according
| to U. G. Houck, in charge of hog-
| cholera control, United States De-
| partment of Agriculture, the gener-
al distribution and prevalence of the
disease and the enormous expense
make such a gigantic undertaking
inadvisable, especially while large
sums are being expended by the
Federal and State Governments for
the elimination of the southern;
cattle tick and the eradication of
bovine tuberculosis, dourine, and
scabies of cattle and sheep.
The eradication of hog cholera
would require the application of no
less comprehensive and rigid meas-
ures than those adopted for the era-
dication of foot-and-mouth disease
in this country, and our hog indus-
try is in no condition to withstand
such measures. Furthermore, says
Doctor Houck, we have an effectu-
al, practical preventive treatment
against hog cholera, which is not
the case with tuberculosis and some
of the other diseases with which we
are contending. Therefore, it seems
advisable to continue present efforts
to minimize losses through the pro-
per use of the preventive treatment
rather than to attempt the complete
eradication of the disease.
A feeling of security was largely
responsible for the severe and wide-
spread outbreak of cholera last fall.
Herds were omparatively free from
the disease for a time and the own-
ers became negligent and failed to
treat their hogs. With so large a
percentage of the hogs in the coun-
try susceptible it was only natural
that the outbreak spread rapidly far
and wide.
Control of the disease
maintained by keeping the
herd immune at all times. The na-
ture of serum production is such
that it can not be hastened to meet
emergencies. Ordinarily about 55
days are required to produce
test a quantity of the product
ready for marketing. Severe out-
breaks like that of last fall create a
shortage in the serum supply with
the result that many herds are in-
fected before they can be treated.

Fragrant Fertilizer
Fragrance is not normally asso-
ciated with the fertilizer industry.
Many farmers have judged the
potency and value of a commercial
fertilizer largely by the desirability
of a gas mask for use in handling
it. Research by the Bureau of Soils
of the United States Department
of Agriculture has discovered a
fragrant fertilizer, derived from
the by-products of the manufacture
of cocoa and chocolate, that carries
with it the pleasant aroma of a
newly opened can of cocoa. This
press cake or cocoa meal is a con-
venient source = of nitrogen for
plant food. It contains about 4 per
cent of nitrogen which is the equi-
valent of 4.9 per cent of ammonia.
A
Keep Rooster Out
Male birds with the flock are not
necessary to get a good egg yield.
It is important, however, that the
breeding males have comfortable
quarters between hatching seasons.
Quality of the eggs is improved
when the roosters are removed from
the flock.

The value of timber, along with
other economic considerations, ac-
cording to the Forest Service,
United States Department of Agri-
culture, is causing land-owners
more and more widely to study the
possibilities of profitable reforesta-
tion.

Briefly Told
Under any plan of feeding hogs,
free access to good, pure, water
a mineral mixture containing
salt is necessary at all times.
More than forty-five per zent of
the windmills of Holland have been
removed or demolished since
according to a report from an of-
ficial mill association in that coun-
try.
Oily cloths used in, polishing
floors and woodwork are a serious
fire risk and should either be des-
troyed immediately after use or kept
in a tightly covered fire-proof con-
tainer.
Send to the United States* De-
partment of Agriculture for Farm-
ers’ Bulletin 1471-F, “Canning
Fruits and Vegetables at Home,” be-
fore you are confronted with a
large garden surplus.
In building a poultry house it is
safe to allow about 4 square feet of
floor space per bird. The lighter
birds, such as Leghorns and Ancon-
as, usually require less floor space
than Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island
Reds, and Wyandottes. |
Whipped cream is not only a
pleasantly luxurious addition to a
dessert, but a food in itself. It is
not needed after a rich, hearty din-
ner, but is appetizing and suitable
after the lighter type of meals serv-
ed in summer time.
A terrapin with ‘H. E. C., 1873’
carved on the shell was found on a
farm near Salem, Virginia. H. E.
Caldwell, of Roanoke, says he re-
members carving his initials on the
back of a full-grown terrapin in
April, 1873. i
The Navy hospital ship S. S. Re-
lief, reports an unusual caller, a
sea lion, which climbed up the
patient’s gangway by himself. Ex-
amination disclosed a deep cut,
which ws treated by a surgeon. The
patient swam off but returned later
for a call of thanks.
An appointment existing in Lon-
don since 1570 is that of ‘remem-
brancer.’ The holder of this office
who must be a lawyer, is paid be-
tween $7,500 and $10,000 a year,
his duties being to sit beneath the
gallery of the House of Commons |
and ‘remember’ legislation affecting |
the city of London. He must also
act as medium for communication
with the royal family or cabinet.

CHINESE ELMS THRIVE WHERE
OTHER SHADE TREES LIVE
For shade or as a windbreak the
Chinese elm has proved its value in
most sections of the United States.
The United States Department of |
Agriculture introduced this tree
nearly twenty years ago and now
recommends it as useful and widely
adaptable. It is particularly valu-
able in regions of light rainfall and
extremes of temperature where few,
rees thrive, Trials indicate that
the Chinese elm grows even more
rapidly in the relatively dry area of
the Middle West than in the moist-
er regions of the Atlantic coast.
Trees have weathered the severe
winters of the northern tier of the
States and have made satisfactory
growth near Yuma, Ariz, where
few shide trees are able to survive
the dry -<limate.
This efm grows with numerous
slender, almost wiry, branches. The
leaves are eliptical and smaller |
than those of the American elm.
Leaves appear early in the spring |
and the tree is one of the last to!
lose foliage in the fall. It is free!
from injury by plant diseases and
insects and grows rapidly. At the
Fort Hays Experiment Station in
Kansas Chinese elms developed in
four growing seasons from shoots
three feet tall and the size of a
lead pencil to trees from 15 to 25
feet in height, with trunks from 16
to 19 inches in circumference.
Several nurseries in the South
and West have realized the value
of this importation and offer plants
and seeds for sale.
House Pullets Early
House the laying pullets early.
Normally developed pullets have
completed their molts and start
heavy production when about six
months old. Put them in their lay-
ing quarters when they are about
five months old, or when they first

We have secured the services of a Plumber and are
