the disease, affords some indication of the degree of
favour in which the " stamping•out" process of
slaughter is held in different counties. In Cheshire
the proportion of animals killed to deaths from
disease was 5 to 87 ; in Yorkshire, 8 to 77 ; in
Cumberland (where the visitation is lately reported
as spreading rapidly), 54 to 37 ; in Norfolk, 50 to
46 ; in Derby, 62 to 31 ; in Somerset, 61 to 39 ;
and in Gloucester, 72 to 27. The proportions
for the whole of England give 26 as killed,
65 deaths, and 9 recoveries ; iu Wales, 5 killed,
83 deaths, and 12 recoveries ; and in Scotland,
15 killed, 68 deaths, and 17 recoveries. It will be
seen, then, that while the executions, so to speak,
were little more than half as mauy in Scotland as in
England, the recoveries on the other side of the
Tweed nearly double our own.

To what extent these variations are due to par-
ticular modes of treatment, either in the form of
curative or of preventive measures which have
been adopted by local authorities, we await
evidence before we can judge, and we trust that the
solution of the question may not be long in forth-
coming. Meatiihile, we commend the considers-
tion of the facts we have here set forth to the
county magistrates a ho are now in frequent delibera-
tion, and upon the wisdom of whose measures such
vast interests are depending.
