Lincoln County Tribune

A farmer in Madison county thinks he has found a sure preventive against the death of hogs by the so-called "cholera." He explains it thus: Between the front teeth and the grinders there is a space of two or three inches, and in this space under the gum of every diseased hog will be found a pocket of poisonous substance. To remove this, take a cold chisel and hammer and cut this bottle of poison out. He says that previous to adopting this device he had lost 73 hogs, but since adopting it he has not lost a single hog, and those of his neighbors who have tried the same operation report the same favorable results. As everything else has proved worthless, it certainly will not be very expensive to make the experiment.
