A Major Nightmare WASHINGTON, D.C. — Hog cholera has become a major agricultural nightmare in Indiana and eight other states. Already 39,000 hogs have been destroyed and their owners paid indemnities. Thus, I was very heartened that Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz has declared a national emergency of hog cholera to help the farmer and to protect the consumer’s supply of pork products. Important for farmers and Hoosiers is a change in federal regulations to increase the federal share of indemnity., Formerly “infected states,” such as what Indiana has become received indemnity on a 50-50 basis with state government. New regulations change that to a 75-25 federal state share. This means that the federal government would pay 75 per cent of the reimbursement to farmers for hogs that must be destroyed and Indiana would reimburse 25 per cent. Also important is that by declaring a national emergency, Secretary Butz can authorize the funds and the people necessary to carry out an all-out disease eradication campaign. I applaud this action by the secretary and I hope that the country will quickly eliminate the causes. LAKELAND LOCALS Craig Ruch and his fiancee, Marty Bosworth, both of Indianapolis, had Sunday dinner with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Russell Ruch.
