A cattle Disease.

Ofall the domestic animals cattle
 are most liable to the disease Of tn
 bercuiosis or consumption, and thor oughbreds are more apt to have it than the scrub. This is not on ac- count of the stock; but in the way they have been bred and cared for. It is beyond any occasion for argu- ment that this disease is contagious. One of the great experimenters with it says tis as contagious as glanders and contagious pleuro-pneumonia lt is not only transmittable from one an- imal to another but from animals to man and man to animals. The dan ger to the life and health of human beings is in the use of the meat or milk of infected animals. The symp- toms are learned by q little obserya- tion and inquiry Tine disease is usu- ally induced by some violation of ghe laws of animal health. For Instance, after keeping cattle in warm stable over night to turn them out to drink and stand about in the cold un- til they are thoroughly cHled, day after day or shutting them up in a close, foul stable. There Is no cure for the disease in animals, unless some recent discoveries in the recov- cry of the human system from con sumption are yeritable and will ap
 ply. Those suspected to be affected should be isolated until their condi
 tlon ls definitely determined. If they

 Another step has been taken in the Walker case. Judge Woodward re- turned on Sunday morning from Flor ence and is clated over the prospect of what he believes will be a favorable is- sue of his case for the contestant, Juana Walker.
 A hearing of the case in district court occupied the whole of last week and on Saturday the court granted an execution in favor of the plaintiff for costs amounting to sl,O94.40.
 An order was also passed requiring Administrator Doran to give new bond of s50,OOO within ten days The administrator was also cited to ap- pear within fifteen days to show cause why certain settlements made by him with the contestees before the bring ing of this suit should not be reopen ed. This order refers to an alleged payment of costs by the admlnistra- tor to the contestees out of the es- tate.
 It is also charged by the contestants that the property of Walker in Cali fornia and that part of the estate in- cluded in his partnership with his brothers had not been brought in by the administrators Accordingly suit was brought against him for s70.0o0 the amount alleged by the contestce to not have been included
 The piaintiii win move to dismiss the appeal on the ground that tho bond was defective.

A Helena paper says the reports from round-ups indicate that the calf crop is so poor as to show that the in- crease in the herds has been almost nothing. The paper says this lack of calves will be most felt later in the diminished number ot cattle on the range, which will increase the de- mand for Arizona cattle for shipment to Montana.

W. E. Skinner live stock agent for the South Omaha stock yards, was in Denver last week from the Missouri river. He says that corn growers in Nebraska have plenty Of feed for stock but haven't money to buy beef cattle with. He can place 30,000 head in that country if stock growers will advance the cattle and wait for their pay until they are marketed. The corn growers will pay the freigh., and Mr skinner says good security can be provided If arrangements can be made with the cattle growers it may be a good move to make. Mir.
