FOR WHOLESOME MEATS.
What the Bureau of Animal Ina dumsrys
Is Doing to Protect Animals
and the Public

DIR. E. d. Salmon. chief of the bureau
of animal industry of the agricultural
department. reviewed before the in
dustrial commission the work of the de-
partment in controlling contagious dis
eases of animals in the United States
and the prevention OF Importation or
expectation of contagion. To prevent
this importation he said that quaran-
time stations have been established
along the Atlantic coast at New York.
Boston and Baltimore and along the
Mexican and Canadian borders. In
spectors. he said. recently have sent 10
Great Britain and Canada to make tu-
berculon tests, so that diseased animals
may be rejected before shipment. He
pointed out that meat inspection has
been established at the principal pack
ing houses to guard against the inter
state and foreign shipment of diseased
meat. He recommended that the secre-
tary of agriculture be authorized to or
der the cleansing and disinfection of
stock cars and stockyar6s when neces-
sary, and to prevent the shipment of
uninspeeted meat from state to state
or 10 foreign countries.

FAST BECOMING EXTINCT.
seaEiI1s Industry on the Commaanderl
and waIrum IxImnd DIS Not What
1T Used to BE.

The secretary of the treasury has
been advised that during the ensuing
month of February the farming out
of the seal hunting on the Commander
and Walrus islands. in the Arctic sea.
will take place al Khabarovsk- in East
Siberia Russia. in which enterprise
many English companies are said to
be interested. 1t is doubtful. it is said,
whether the proposed disposition of
this crown property will bring the
price it formerly did. in view of the
enormous destruction of seal life dur
ing the past ten years, which has great
ly decreased the catch.
The governor of East Siberia has
reported that in 1896 the number of
seals caught on the Commander is
lands was 54.591; in 1892. only 10000
were caught; in 1893 the total was
$4,000; in 1898 the number was 2o25.
and last year only about LOCO skins
were secured.
The situation is said to be the same
as regards the catch on WaIrus is
land. AT the beginning of the nineties
the yearly catch was 1000. 1t is now
only about 300. The treasury officials
believe the time is fast approaching
when the fur seal will be almost ex-
tinct in the region referred to.

RICH ORE IN PIXIES PEAK.
Mining Company Well Paid for Bor-
ing Nine Hundred Feet Into
Mountain.

The first strike of any importance
ever made on Pixies peak is the one
Just discovered in the tunnel of the Oil
Greek Mining company Of Cincinnati.
The mountain has been prospected for
years and is supposed by many to be
the starting point of the rich leads
found in Cripple Greek but surface
work has never disclosed any ore. Bv
running tunnel into the very heart
of the mountain. however the Oil
Greek company has opened three-foot
vein of $50 ore and pockets carving
fabulous values. The tunnel is now in
900 feet under Pixies peak. Work was
begun in March. 1896. Al that time
there was no ore in sight. and nothing
but a theory to warrant the expendi-
ture of money. George II. Bohrer. pres
ident of the German national bank of
Cincinnati. is also president of the Oil
Creek Mining company. George Kreis
is secretary and j K. Pictou is treas
urer.
The utmost secrecy is maintained by
the interested parties

DISTRIBUTION OF SEED.
Delayed by ahe Failure to work of
the Filling and Sealing
MacIfnory.

Considerable delay is being occa-
stoned in the congressional seed dis
tribution by the failure of the filing
and sealing machinery to work as it
was expected to do. The invention is
new one and not yet in a state OF
perfection, but it is thought that the
inventor, who spends his time in the
plant, Will be able TO have it in good
working order in the next few days.
just now the work of filing. sealing
and franking the bags is being done
by hand as rapidly as possible, and
some orders are being gotten out for
the localities in which planting first
occurs.
1t is thought by the contractors that
the plant, which is conveniently To-
Gated near the post Office, will be 81
full working order in the next few days.
and that, even with the present de,ay
and the extra appropriation, the work
will be completed much more rapidly
than ever before.
Some fear is entertained BY some
congressman lest Secretary Wilson's
test for termination is too high. and
that he is paying too much attenticI.
to the scientific character of the SUI
ply, and thus materially retarding he
distribution. The congressman frank
ly confess that ii is the quantity AM
speed of the distribution for which
they care more than for the quality
and already they are making uneasy
calls at the plant where the seeds are
being handled and TO the seed division
of the agricultural department.

to Tod.
This Thanksgiving finds the

not to be driven by any calamity
from the path OF strong, orderly,
popular liberty which, rs n nation,
we have thus far safely trod.
Yet. In spite of this great dis
astcr. II II nevertheless true that
no people on earth have such
