Watch for the first hog to show sign! of cholera, advises the United State: Department of Agriculture.

If the disease, how ever, Is allowed to reach all the anl mats before the serum preventive treatment is applied heavy losses may b( serum is a expected. preventive and not a cure for hog cholera, the department points out. Whenever ahog dies of an unknown cause the owner should watch his herd closely for at least a week, and if any more hogs In the herd begin to show signs of sickness a veterinarian should be called immediately, for the chances are that hog cholera has reached the herd and prompt action in applying the serum treatment is the only thing that will save the well animals. A high temperature, ranging from 105 degrees F., to 10S degrees F., in a hog that staggers when it walks, Is a pretty good Indication of hog cholera Such hogs should be segregated and not allowed to mingle with other hogs or to wander about, for they will 'spread the disease wherever they go sometimes in places where it Is lmpos slble to disinfect.
