Pontiac, down in Livingston county, is enjoy

disturbed spirits has been holding revel in the
woods near that city. He is described as white

and he came out on a log and put them to flight.

vi thin the last three years there has
grown up an extensive trade in calves DUR
chased in the Eastern states and sent to the
West to be matured and fattened. That
trade had grown in two years to $780,
OOO-more than that worth of Eastern
calves having passed through the Chicago
stock yards, and up to August good many
more. The cause of this is the great loss
OF cattle on the plains, winter before last,
which led to extraordinary demand for
young cattle in Illinois and adjacent states.
The old field for the purchase of these In
Michigan. Ohio and Western and Central
New York and Pennsylvania have been 80
drained of their stock that young cattle
have risen to an almost prohibitory price.

A correspondent writing from Bourbon
county, Kentucky, to the Breeders Gazette;
says: "The Texas fever has become quite
prevalent in Bourbon county within the
last few days, and the natives not knowing
what it was, have called it "Bloody Water"
from the character of the urinary discharges
OF the animals affected. This malignant
scourge was brought into our midst BY
some Texas cattle recently sold here and
has proved very disastrous, several thous-
and dollars worth of stock having died
from 1t. There is diversity of opinion az
TO the source Of the contagion Of the fever
but the most authentic opinion seems to M
to be that discharge Of the hoof deposi-
ted upon the ground, which the other cattle
Lick up and thus contract the disease."

1t is probable that the denizens of East
ern cities will get their beef this winter at
a lower rate, in propotion to the prices of
cattle on foot, than ever before. Beef cat
lie are likely to be higher for part of the
winter, bat metropolitan consumers win
will be much less conscious Of any enhance
ment in the values than they were last
winter. This change was caused by the
change In refrigerator beef. The city
resident who wishes to use cheap beef this
winter can do SO if he is willing to eschew
the home slaughtered article. AT similar
prices the old style of meat would undoubt-
edly hayathe preference, but whether, with
a difference Of several cents ON the pound,
they can stand in:competition with increas-
ed and improved dressed imports from the
west remains to be seen.-Pittsbprg Stock

known on the ranges of the Southwest for

we'll be for Texas fever. We learn Of small
punches of cattle dying off i'm every direc-
ton from being exposed to through Texas
or Arkansas cattle. Some think Arkansas
cattle will not impart the Texas fever to
natives; but it is mistake, as has been
demonstrated this fall. Northern cattle

down and die in great numbers, is about
