From the Shepherdstoars Register
Thieves broke into the meat house
of Mr.. John HI. Show, in Shepherds
town, last Friday night, and stole
therefrom eleven pieces of bacon
There is no clue to the robbers.
Mr.. Joseph Yonts caught two bass
in the fishpot below town on Wed
nesday which weighed eleven pounds
They both came into the fishpot a,
once while he happened to be there
The large orchard of Mr.. James p
Rogers, on the line of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad between Lime
Kiln and Buckeystown, Frederick
county, Nd, caught fire from sparks
thrown out by a passing locomotive
last week. and in less than an houl
destroyed between five and six acres
of fruit trees.
A number of persons of this town
and vicinity of the Catholic religion
have rented the room above the store
of Mr.. ID. A. Hill, and have fitted il
up as place of worship. Rev. Father
Wilson. of Harper's Ferry, will cele.
brate mass next Tuesday morning al
eight O'Clock, and also regularly here
after on the second Tuesday of each
month.
In view of the fact that hog cholera
has been prevailing to an alarming
extent in Frederick and Washing
ton counties, Nd, DIR. Robert Ward,
State Veterinary Inspector, visited
Frederick on Friday and Hagerstown
on Tuesday, and gave some interest
ing information OH the subject of the
disease and the means that should be
used to suppress or eradicate it. In
the course of his remarks DIR. Ward
said the disease is of vegetable paras-
itic origin, most infectious, and almost
impossible to be treated successfully
by medicinal agents. When taken
in an acute form hogs should be killed
as quickly as possible, and their car
cases tafter being slashed and cover
ed with quicklime) buried in seclud-
ed spot, in hole dug at least four feet
deep, or, better still, reduced to ashes
by burning. Dead bodies should
never be thrown into streams of water.
The disease is disseminated in many
different ways, often by the excre-
ment (which should be collected and
destroyed by fire) being carried from
farm to farm on boots and shoes. The
infective element can also be carried
into and harbored by straw ricks, &C.,
to which hogs have lad access, Pens
in which diseased animals have been
located should be thoroughly swept
and washed, and then every part
coated and sprinkled with lime-wash
made by mixing freshly-burnt lime
with water, containing in each gallon
either one-fifth of pint of carbolic
acid or the same quantity of cresylic
acid. The manure and sweepings
should be Immediately mixed with
quicklime, and effectually removed
with the animals. The disease, said
DIR. Ward, generally develops itself
in from nine to fifteen days. When
taken in a mild form, hogs should be
isolated at once and drenched with
hyposulphite of soda or carbolic acid,
coupled with some sedative agent
Among the symptoms of the disease
is the loss of appetite, languidness,
swelling of certain parts, and dispo-
sition to seclusiveness.
