The "Rurai New Yorker" says
that foot rot in sheep is contagious
and may spread through the
entire flock, unless prompt pre-
yentive measures are taken. In it
the whole hoof becomes infiamed,
blisters form on the heels and be-
tween the toes, which break and
in few days form ulcers which
excrete fetid matter. The fOrefeet
are usually affected and the sheep
goes about feeding painfully on
its knees. The hOOf is lost in
course of time and a sore stump
alone is left. 1t is usually the
result of feeding on wet pastures.
It shonld be treated on the first
appearance of lameness for the
whole condition of the animal is
demoralized. All raw, loose or
diseased horn should be cut away,
and if any pus or matter is found
under the horn it should be remov-
cd. The feet should then be wash
ed with carbolic soap and water
twice week, and after esch wash
ing a piece of soft tow or lint
stepped in the following mixture
should be bound on the foot and
between the toes. Oxide of cop

debt. She held the bank mort,
gage as a security, has taken
the fruits Of the security, and
withhold8 payment 10 her cred
itors. She could at least have
long since turned over such
security as she held, for their
benefit. Now that the day fo1
deliyerance and prosperity has
come, after q long night Of war
and reconstruction, her people
ought to be animated by a high
spirit of honor and a keen sense
of Justice to all. We can pay
what we ought to pay, and We
ought to pay whatever may be
justly due.
Very respectfully,
