They are apparently having n bad
scare at Manchester regarding tUbercu
iosis among the cows, and Il large num-
Der If aninsis have been killed and
more are marked for slaughter. quite a
number Of the animals killed have not
been affected with the disease, but they
have been sacrificed because OF the scare
that prevails among the people and which
has not apparently been allayed by the
commissioners who have gone ahead in
their zeal to stamp out the disease re
gardless of the cost. The principle that
the disease Is contagious appears to
have been accepted as correct. while
the fact is that there is considerable
doubt about the matter. Down in Maine
a few years ago there was similar
movement. but more care appeared to
lie exhibited regarding the killing of
animals with doubtful indications IF the
disease, u course that saved the State a
good deal of money and prevented any
general apprehension regarding the re-
suits than might follow because of the
previous existence of the disease. 1t is
well. however, to he on the safe side,
and IA few well animals better be sacri-
feed if there by the disease can be
stamped out than that too much con
scrvatism should govern the work Of
the commission. - OjccH HaH.
