The most stringent measures are being
taken by the Montana Stock Growers
association to prevent the spread of the
disease. No halfway measure will be
taken, but the herd will all be killed and
burned. The renge interests are in no
danger, as there is 100 miles of farming
country between Etherington's herd and
the range cattle country. Marquis De
Mores will advance money to kill and
cremate the cattle If other pid cannot be
secured OF once. Stock Inspector
Willard is on the ground and reports
that only desperate measures will do.
He has instructions to strictly quaran-
tine the cattle until they can be killed.
There is no fear now of further spread
OF the disease.
