Results of Vaccination. The Kansas experiment station has received reports of the result of vaccinating vac-cinating 32,000 hogs against cholera. In herds infected before vaccination 70 per cent of the hogs survived. In herds not infected before vaccination 99 per cent survived. This shows very clearly that the time to use the cholera chol-era serum is before the disease hits the herd. The losses from swine disease dis-ease this year promise to be much less than that, but there is a good deal of it scattered over the corn belt and all precautions should be taken. Serum is available now in nearly all Important swine-producing states, and those who own hogs should take advantage ad-vantage of it.
