Caused by Genn The cause oi the disease is a lzerm, and without the presence oi the germ there can be no hog cholera, the speaker continued. Such ‘things as neglect, bad feed- 121g. filthy conditions, have no power to produce choiera, he said, but when the infection is intro- duced among hogs under such con- ditions, the disease spreads with Great rapidity. The spread of the disease is greatest through direct contact of one hog with another, the speaker declared. Humans, dogs, birds and springs of water are also great spreaders of the cholera. disease. he added. Another mode of infection which is responsible for many outbreaks of the disease in Canada. is the feeding of uncooked garbage con- taining scraps of pork, bacon rind, etc._. in the TBIW state. Dr. Notting momtaincd. The explanation for this lies in the fact that in the United States many h0g5 are sent to tlie slaughter-house when in the early stage of hog cholera, and are killed, turned into pork and consumed for food without hind- rance. he said. This is possible because of tile incubation period when there is a lapse of some clays between the time the hog becomes infected and the time when lie shlizlivs symptoms of it, the speaker sa . The meat of such hogs contains tlhe germs of the disease, and such processes as salting, splclng, oi" smoking. do not destroy these germs, lie continued. Cooking does lrlcsfircy them and as a quantity of 'UllltE(I States pozk is consumed in not to feed kitchen refuse to hogs unless it has first been cooked, he added In United States sick hogs are sometimes treated with an immune Vafichlfltfld a- ‘list the disease.

Sacrifioe Balance For Constitution “Our average breed tvne hos lcan- . ed somewhat to greater" constitution l with possibly some lessening of bal- ance and length. In too man ofoiu" hogs marketed. a h sioulrler conformation is noted. this being a common cause for lack of balance. and hogs grading ""B‘s" instead of "As". It is felt that the Wldfllllkfi of the "B" carcass grade may leave a. possibility open fol" the encourage- lnent of such o, trend. Moreover. lie lire fortunately glowing more barley for finishing purposes, which uliricr heavy Winter reealniz could have the tendency to thicken our marker hogs somewhat. For these reasons, in tlic se.ectlon_ and use of brcediu sto.k it. is believed that we should: direct our attention moreso to the distlriit. bacon type, or shall we say "picture type’ hog. emphasizing smoothness, balance and reasonable length. I would respectfully like to stress mo, ImDOPI-B-llce of th s to our pure bred breeders. and particularly should a Swine Show and sale not be held. All breeders should conscientiously aim at determining the most sut- able matings for their sows iii order that, in so far as possibie, the right type of breeding stock may be rc- uced. A breeder of typey stoc is in a splendid position to exert a strong influence for the bettermert of the bacon hog industry lrl hs community. “The Departments have constant- ly refrained from the distribution of weaned age boars in keeping with ," the expressed wish of the Directors: of this Association, and with the rc- alization that the clstrlbution of immature boars could very well not be conducive to quality hog produc- tion. Furtnermore. the tee of a weaned- go boar fills an order where its ould be expected that fi more mature animal would subse- quently be placed. “Sow Unit“ Policy ‘The “Sow Unit“ policy as jointly administered by tlie two Depart- ments of Agrlcu ture was cxtcridrd during the past year to dstrlcts where it was felt that hog produc- tion could form a more active nllrt of the form livestock programme.
