sow died suddenly like she was

months ago and got well and I
thought she would not take cholera (

When a hog gets sick, every
body says hog cholera. I thought
cholera was a violent purging of i

good, and the lungs all right, the <
contents of the bowels seemed nor- i
ma!, but the kidneys seemed dis- I
eased. The leaf lard around the I
kidneys was turning yellow, and I
degenerating; there were red !
blotches on the skin more and
more as the sickness progressed; I
in short, the blood seemed to clog <
in the capillaries of the skin and I
refuse to perform its functions, j
The kidneys poisoned the blood, I
or the blood poisoned the kidneys, i
1 am no doctor; bat (hat is the i
way it looks to me, and I call it i
'Hemorrhagic lever" in this part I
of the country, congestion of the
capillaries. !
"See here, Jim, I sometimes I
compare the circulation of the <
blood, to the circulation to the sap 1
in a tree. You have noticed Many
times when some pine trees go to I
die, it thev have a turpentine box
cut lti them, that the first symtorn
of sickness in the tree is a
sour water dripping in the box. <
infested with a swarm ot little flies,
we call drunkards, sucking at the
sour water. The water is the degenerate
tree sap, the poisoned or j
disintegrated tree b!o >d, which
refuses longer to obey tii3 usual
capiliaiy attraction, refuses to
climb farther Dame Nature's adder
of tree cells; and drips back, per- i
haps, a barrel from one tree as it i
diei. Some little chemical change
in the sap or some little unknown
derangement of cells or capillaries;
or is it bacteria or what?
1%I wish some of the doctors had
enough -get upvin them to inresti- '
gate this hog sickness. It is getting i
to be fearful.

that lie had trouble to get
a sick hog to work on, that every
one that had sick hogs would deny
it and secre'llv ship them to the
butcher, who would bur them, but
at a smaller price. And let me tell
you, Jim, yon have eaten many a
piece of sick hog when you get
this yankee No 2 meat, and I recoil
some of the No 1, too.
I hare seen some red tapt drawing*
of a piece of hog liver, or hog
lungs, in the government doctor's
reports about hog cholera; but
that hs not the trouble here in our
"hemorrhagic" hog disease, and

' Why, Jitn, let me tell vou:
some people seem lo be as mnch
afraid of a sick dead hog as of a
graveyard ghost. 1 was tolJ the
other day ol a man who had several
fat hogs m a pen lor bacon
and o-ie took sick and died, and
he would not kill the others tor
fear they were innoculated, until
the hat one died and he had to

that is all tomfoolery, for we both
ate some of a sick hog and it did
not hurt us. Mr. Nesmwh told
ine of a case where some negroes
ate some that had been hauled
off and thrown in the woods lor
the buzzards.
"Hogs have other diseases besides
cholera. There is the mangy
hog, the measley hog and, worst
of all,tbetriehina Wog, full of little
fine hair-like worms, perhaps a
thirij-second of an inch Jong, that

honeycombed throughout ? and
the only cure is the grave yard.
'Germany, a few years ago, issued
an edict that no American pork
should enter iier ports tor iear
of this trichina until our government
hired meat inspectors to
prevent the sale ol trichina
meat. IJut I see in the papers
that the money is exhausted and
the inspectors dismissed and that
Germany is threatening another
interdiction.
