Killing of Birds ProhibitedThe attention of all persons is directed

to the fact that all insectivorous birds,and nearly all hawks and owls are pro-tected by the laws of Colorado. It is for-bidden to kill them or to cap'ure themalive, or to take or-destroy their nests oreggs. The penalty for violation is a fineof not more than $25.00 for each bird ornest of eggs, imprisonment not to exceedten days in jail,or both. These birds arealso protected by the Federal law for theprotection of migratory birds, and offend-ers are liable to prosecution by UnitedStates officers.

The exceptions to the Colorado law arethe English sparrow, sr.arp-shinnodhawk, Cooper’s hawk, goshawk, duckhawk, great horned owl, pirion jay, mag-pie, blue jay and eagle. Some of theunprotected hawks resemble the protec-ted. be sure you are right before killingany.

Remember that ignorance of the lawdoes not excuse the offender.

CONTROL HOG CHOLERA

Some Facts Given in WagingWar on the Dread Disease.

It Must Be Remembered That SerurrIs Preventive, Not a Cure—Two

Different Methods of Apply-

ing Are Described.

(By DR. K. W. STONDER, lowa StateCollege.)

• Hog cholera serum is the only thingknown which will prevent or controlhog 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 andthe serum-simultaneous. The first con-sists merely of Injecting a quantity of

serum proportionate to the weight olthe hog. This gives an Immunity lasting from three to six weeks. Thismethod never hurts any hog, even ilgiven in heavy overdoses

The serum-simultaneous is the sameas the single treatment with the ad-dition of a small quantity of virus orblood containing the germs capable olproducing cholera. This gives the hogsimmunity for life, except pigs vaccinated before eight weeks old.

Some losses have been reportedfrom the serum-simultanoous treatment. They are the faults of methodsor materials rather than the treat-ment. Poor serum of low potencyand untested is the chief factor in

the failure of this treatment. Toolow doses, or improper application ofthe serum ace all causes of failure.

Records kept on 20,000 hogs show aloss of less than two per cent whentreated by the simultaneous method.All were made immune, some forthree years.

Here are tho facts in waging waron hog cholera by the simultaneoustreatment:

Hogs can be made immune.If healthy when treated, and if re-ole, tested serum is employed to-

gether with good virus, there is nodoubt that tho serum simultaneoustreatment is a success.

Hog cholera serum In any processwillgive good results on healthy hogs,and better than nothing on sick ones.It must be remembered that hog chol-era serum Is a preventive, not a cure.

When serum Is to be ‘used, first getall the pigs together in a pen sothey may be caught easily. Too muchexercise before injection is not goodfor the animal.

Injection may be on inner side ofa rear leg or in armpit; either spotmust be cleaned carefully, using firstwarm water and soap nnd followingwith alcohol or a three to five pelcent solution of carbolic acid.

All vessels nnd instruments mustbe sterilized before use and the op-erator’s hands should be cleaned, dis-infected and kept so.

STANCHIONS FOR THE CALVESYoungster Will Not Worry AboutNeighbor Getting Part of His Mess

and Will Drink Slowly.

Harmful results are frequentlybrought on in young calves by theirdrinking milk too rapidly and toomuch at a time

Feeding small quantities and often,which is the natural plan, is the wayto avoid trouble from this source

Where several calves run togetherstanchions for feeding may contributeto less rapid drinking, for withstanchions the calf is not worryingabout one of its neighbors getting partof his mess nnd is thus encouraged todrink more slowly.

Distemper in Horses.Strangles, or as It is commonly

known, distemper. Is a contagiousand infectious disease seen most fre-quently In young animals One attackgenerally produces an immunitywhich lasts for life, therefore is sel-dom seen in older animals.
