SIR beg to rcrort to you the result of
further Investigations carried on by me in
con junction with DR.. c. b. Iiche;tuS, In
spcctor of Bureau of Animal Industry, re-
speeding the present outbreak of disease
among cattle i'll several counties in this
State. We find by observation and careful
inquiry as to the history of the cases that
by no possibility can the case be identical
with European foot and mouth disease.
We also led to believe that
it is due to like causes con-
conditions that now operating quite
generally through the State. The foods,
grasses, etc, may probably be affected with
some form of fungi that is producing this
trouble. This. however, is not definitely as
ccrtaiped yet. We united upon the
following facts:
J. That the disease in question is not "foot
and mouth disease
=. That it is not contagious.
3. There is not the slightest cause for
alarm among our stock owners Respect.

1t was the first real London fog We had seen,
As London is . large city. of course, IL can
afford to have good-sized fogs 1t was SO DARK
we did not got up till II o'clock. The fog was
then very deuse-and full of dents-where you
would poke your head out of the window TO zee
what was the matter.
Children below US were making fog-meu,
putting hats on them and pipes in their mouths.
Men had fun pressing it in their hands and fog.
balling each other. Street cars had extra horses
to assist in pulling through the fog, aud they
would leave long tunnels along the route,
down which one could look until it caved in.
We heard it animated that landlords stuffed
their bed ticks with il, az it made soft, springy
couches to rest upon, and better than straw
and corn cobs 1t was the worst fog that
you ever attempted to shake stick at. II you
went to talk out Of doors your mouth would fill
so full OF fog that you could spit it out only
with great difficulty. Merchants would sweep
it of the sidewalks and shovel it away high
enough 80 that q man with plug hat could
walk under 1t. You could take a cross-cut saw
and saw it very we'll 1t was so dense that we
would have been in the same fix if we had been

man fell out of the third-story window of his

him to hurry up-or down-as they were get
ting tired Of waiting for him and were afraid
he would have to stay up there. When we
went out in town we had to hire man to push
US along. The fog was 30 thick that we couldn't
look far enough back to see who he had got to
push him.
A reliable Englishman told us that century
ago, during similar fog, the squadron hoisted
anchor in the Thames and sailed up town solely
through the fog. He said to this day that
street is called Fleet" and in another street
they stranded by the fog getting lighter, and
in consequence the street was named ''The
Strand" As am on probation will not swear
that this is altoge ther SO, or more 80.

the cigar had gone out at the same moment

scoop it out. We send you . section Of yester-
