Dr^JCING'S NcwaacovEjtr Cholera la Destroying Valuable Hogs Raleigh, N. C. Not. 12 ? Valuable herds of swine which the owners have failed to protect from cholera by vac cination are now being sadly deci mated by this disease In North Caro lina, reports Dr. F. D. Owen, In charge ot the hog cholera contrdl work of the State Department of Agriculture and State College. Dr. Owen states that nearly every hog grower knows that cholera Is Infectious, Is a germ disease, and Is carried from one herd, to another by several different me-] thods. Sometimes this is so simple an agency as borrowed implements. Dogs birds, running streams, all contribute their share to the spread of the di sease but the two most important; sources of Infection are the sick hog not properly confined and the dead one which has not been lawfully dis posed of. Dr. Owen points out that the laws of North Carolina require that when swine become sick, they must be con fined so as not to become a menace ! to other herds and that when any anl- 1 mal dies from any form of natural death, the carcass must either be ( burned to ashes or buried under at least three feet of earth In spite of this. Dr. Owen recently vlBlted the farm ot a well Informed man who said that he had recently lost four hogs weighing OTer 200 pounds each and that he had hauled them to a piece of nearby woods where they were picked over by dogs and buz zards. He had four other hogs In a fattening pen which were then too far advanced In the disease for Tac- 1 cination to check. There was also plain evidence that the improper dis- ' posal of the first hogs had caused the ' disease to spread to an adjoining farm. ) Dr. Owen warns hog growers that the only way to properly safeguard their herds when cholera appears In the neighborhood, is to have the ani mals vaccinated before they develop j the disease. The serum is sold at cost] by the State Department of Agricul ture and full lmformation as to how It must be used can be obtained by writing to Dr. F. D.

Tom Tarheel says that If the aver age production of milk by the cows of North Carolina is only about 3,000 pounds per year and the eight class leaders winning the silver eups for high production averaged about 11, 000 pounds thla past year, there must surely be something to this pure bred business after all.

MnagA ~ I than NEW FARM ORSDIT BANK IS FORMED Will Complete Cycle o( CooiKMUtlie Marketing Organisation, It la De clared The North Carolla Agricultural Credit Corporation, organized through the efforts of A. E. Bin*, secretary treasurer of the North Carolina Cot ton Growors Co-operative Association and John H. Boushall. of the Raleigh Savings Bank and Trust Company, for the purpose ot aiding farmers In financing of their crops, was char tered by the Secretary of State yes terday. For some time Messrs. Blng and Boushall have been studying the ne cessity of working out some method ot aiding the farmers in financing the production of their crjjps. Se veral conferences In which a number of men, deeply interested In the wel fare of the farming citizenship of the State considering the plans advan ced by Mefcsre. Blng and Boushall were held and the final cqnference yesterday resulted In the organization of the Corporation with an authorised capital stock of $2,000,000. The char ter has been granted and the new corporation expects to begin business soon as $ 100,000 capital is taken. To Establish Farm Credit "It Is an established fact," says a statement from the organizers "that the merchants in every section of the state are anxious to put their busi ness on a cash basis. In order that they can make their purchases tor cash, thus buying cheaper and at the same time turn over their capital more frequently. It Is another well established fact that the farmers as a rule, particularly those of the cot ton and tobacco sections of the state are not able to produce a crop with out financial assistance and usually this assistance raust be given by the local merchants, who are thereby compelled to carry a large volume ot business throughout the year on a long time credit basis. Local banks cannot carry the burden, as those familiar with banking laws well know. The result is that students ot the pre sent day crop-producing problem have come to the conclusion that some other method of financing crop production should be provided. "It was this condition and this need that resulted in the passage of the act of congress providing for the es tablishment ot Intermediate Credit Banks and one of those banks has been established at Columbia and Nor th Carolina is in its territory. This In termediate Credit Bank Is to provide a means of securing for the farmers credit for the production of crops." At the meeting held yesterday, J. D. Bell of the Intermediate Credit Bank of Columbia was present and stated that the organization being perfected was exactly the .method by which the Intermedial? Ciedi' Bank could best function. Mr. Bell out lined carefully the plans and purpos es of the Intermediate Credit Bank. May Pay Cash For Supplies Working in conlunction with the local banks throughout the Stave, the North Carolina Agricultural Credit Corporation assist the farmerc In obtaining the necessary cash with which to produce a crop, thus enab ling the farmers to pay cash tor Bup pltea and for fertilizer. The method will directly benefit the fertilizer deal ers and the local merchants It is con tended, because the burden of carrjt= ing a large amount ot credit business will be removed from them, and will enable them to place their business on a cash basis. The loans obtained for the farmers will come due at intervals thus en abling them to pay offa part of the loan out of the advances made on cot ton and tobacco by the cooperative associations, and yet have some cash on hand each time for expenses. These Toans will be obtained at a low rate in Interest and the farmer will again be benefited. Invited To Take Stock Local banks throughout the State will be invited to take stock In the corporation and a representative ot the bank will act as the local agent of the corporation, passing on all ap plications for loans. It is the pur pose of the corporation to work for the benefit of members ot the North Carolina Cotton Cooperative Associa tion and the Tobacco Cooperative A? sclation and loans will be obtained for the members ot those two organ izations. The organization was perfected |y eater day by the election of the fol lowing board of directors. Chairman of the Board, O. A. Norwood, Oolde boro, Jrthn H. Boushall, Raleigh, W. M. Bander*.

Since 1881 the Red Cross has ad ministered more than $20,000,000 for the single purpose of disaster relief. That it may continue to accept the re sponsibilities which grave emergen cies place upon the American Red Cross appeal is made for a nation wide renewal of membership during the annual roll call, which opens on Armistice Day, November 11, and closes on Thanksgiving Day, Novem ber 29.
