What is termed hog cholera is the only fatal disease that farmers hare to contend with among animals in this section. As well as can be ascertained the disease appeared here about the year 1855. Up to that time hogs lived here in the mountains, until they were four and five years old, perfectly healthy. Occasionally we would lose a few with quinsy. Of late years the cholera visits us every two or three years, and pretty generally after we have a mast. When it does come it cleans the hogs out pr...etty nearly clean. Last fall a year ago I lost 60 head out of 65. Some of my neighbors lost all they had. No remedy was found to relieve them. Two years ago the symptoms of this disease were different. The animals usually were purged and vomited. The last time they were constipated and the hair would all slip off before they would die. The flies would blow them while still alive. The best remedy we could find was to put them where they could not get any water. Very few animals die of disease in this section except hogs.
