Active Co-operation o£ every Ontario Farmer is Necessary to IT OUT ONTARIO has a really serious outbreak of Hog Cholera. This deadly infectious disease of swine has reached alarming proportions in the counties of Essex and Kent, with smaller outbreaks in Lambton, Elgin, Norfolk and Haldimand. If the disease is not controlled it is certain to spread to neighbouring counties. Every precaution must be taken. The Ontario Department of Agriculture is actively co­ operating with the Federal Department of Agriculture and farmers in their efforts to stamp out this disease. If the spread of Hog Cholera is not checked NOW, every pig raiser in Ontario stands to lose. Only the immediate and wholehearted co-operation of every Ontario , farmer will stamp out this menace to the hog industry. Mrs. W. |F.

HOW TO PREVENT HOG CHOLERA The Departments of Agriculture strongly following precautions: J Confine all hogs to pens or yards that have been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected with an approved disinfectant. In centres of heavy infection, if possible, keep hogs away from straw stacks as this is a place usually frequented by birds such as starlings, sparrows, and pigeons, which may have come direct from an infected barnyard. Destroy as many pigeons, sparrows and starlings as possible. Keep dogs out of the pig pen. Keep your dog under control in the daytime and tied up at night. Keep stray dogs off your farm. /| Burn any dead pigs or bury them so deeply " that stray dogs will not dig them up. g Keep all doors closed and protect the win- " dows so that no dogs or birds can enter the pens. Do not visit neighbours' hog pens nor allow neighbours to visit yours. Always have a pan of strong disinfectant solution just inside the door so that anyone 6. 7 recommend every pig raiser to take the entering the pen can disinfect his shoes, AND INSIST ON ITS USE. Keep livestock trucks off your farm ■— if you have stock to ship, load up at the end of the lane. Disease-bearing refuse dropping from the bottom of the truck might easily be carried to your hogs. DO NOT PURCHASE "FEEDER HOGS" except from dependable sources within a clean district. 10. Isolate newly purchased breeding stock for at least three weeks before permitting them to run with hogs already on the premises. 11. In areas where hog cholera exists be extremely careful about breeding outside sows with your boar. 12. Where hogs are serum treated, follow to the letter instructions given by the Vet­ erinary Inspector of the Federal Department of Agriculture. - 13. Feed only carefully balanced rations. Well-fed hogs have the strongest resis­ tance to disease. Hog Cholera is highly contagious and can spread very rapidly. The above precautions, put into practice, TODAY, will do much to prevent the spread of this deadly disease. ONTARIO ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Hon. P. M. Dewan W. R.
