SWINE FEVERSwine fever is again to be found in this parish. Mr. C. Knight, Rushden, bought some pigs recently, and had them sent to Higham Station. A man was sent to bring them to Rushden, but on getting to Higham, two of the pigs fell ill, and Mrs. White allowed them to be put in her sty until Mr. Knight could fetch them. One died before morning. Another pig fell ill, and was left at Mr. J. Shelton's, and the inspector has declared them affected with fever.
