FARMERS WARNED
OF HOG CHOLERA
One of the greatest financial
losses in recent history may occur
this fall unless North Carolina
farmers take every precaution to
protect their fall pigs from hog
cholera, says Dr. C. D. Grinnells,
professor of Veterinary Science at
State College.
Pointing to the present record
prices and relative scarcity of
pork, Dr. Grinnells agrees with the
American Foundation for Animal
Health, that the Nation's swine
raisers have a tremendous stake
in this fall's battle against cholera,
the Nation's No. 1 swine killer.
Because the danger of fall chol
era flareups is especially great in
the next few weeks, farmers are
urged to keep a close watch on
their swine and ha'Ve fall pigs vac
cinated early. Vaccination, plus
good sanitation and proper feed
ing, is the best safeguard against
cholera losses, Dr. Grinhells said.
Five steps to ward off possible
outbreaks are recommended: Have
all pigs vaccinated ? preferably
around weaning time ? first mak
ing sure, by veterinary examina
tion, that they are in condition to
receive the immunization.
Watch the herd closely for signs
of fever, loss of appetite, or weak
ness. A hog just coming down with
cholera can spread the virus, even
| before pronounced symptoms oc

suspect cholera first.
If an outbreak threatens, and
pigs have not yet been vaccinated,
have this done immediately.'
If there is cholera in the neigh
borhood, quarantine for at least
two weeks any livestock brought
to the farm. Warn your neigh
bors if you suspect cholera on your
own farm.
Be careful about visiting hog
lots. Disease may be spread in
this way.

These words from Oldxrnobile's new "radio aong" have never
been so aptly illustrate*? as in a typical ride to a football game.
There's often a long distance to be covercd. There's always traffic
to contend with. Yet, if you're the driver of an Oldsmobile with
Hydra-Matic Drive, you can . . . "Just forget the clutch and gear.
All you do is sit and steer!" That's true in football traffic, or any
other traffic. True on the highway, too. Ifydra-Matic Drive
takes care of all gear shifting?automatically?through four
forward speed*. And the clutch pedal is eliminated completely!
What makes it even more impressive . . . this will be the ninth
football season in which Hydra-Matic Drive has enabled
Oldsmobile-owning fans to go to the games the easy tvay. GM
Hydra-Matic Drive is a fully perfected, fully proved feature?and
there's still nothing else on the market to compare with it.
Oldsmobile introduced Ifydra-Matic Drive* 8 years ago. Today,
Oldsmobile is still the lowest-priced car to offer it. Add to
this Oldsmobile's traditional style-leadership?plus Oldsmobile'*
all-round, fine-car quality?and you'll see why so many football
fans are Oldsmobile fans as well. You'll agree that . . .
