Foot and Mouth Disease.

An emergency appropriation bill that will
carry either 100000 or 100000 will be
presented to the House In q day or two by
Chairman Wadsworth of the committee on
agriculture TO aid In stamping out the foot
and mouth disease now prevalent among
New England cattle.
Action Is being taken on the reports re-
ceived from DR.. Salmon of the bureau of
animal industry Of the Department Of Agri-
culture, who has been making a personal
investigation of the epidemic for the past
two weeks. Under the organic act creating
the bureau Of animal industry authority is
gwen to its officials to kill animals having
infectious diseases The government is to
pay portion Of the value of the animals
killed, the amount TO be fixed by agreement
The governments share has usually been 70
per cent In such cases.
The foot and mouth disease of cattle has
never before been known in this country
and DR.. Salmon believes it was brought here
from Europe In hay used to feed shipload
of horses. The disease was first noticed last
June, and has been making rapid progress
since that time. The tendency among farm.
ers has been TO conceal the facts as much as
possible, and as the disease Is very conta
gous it has made considerable Roadway.
The disease mauifests itself by sores on
the gums Of cattle, preventing them from
eating for several weeks. In milch cows 1t
stops the milk. The affected cattle have TO
be killed, and the large number that have
been aud are to be condemned il the cause
for the proposed appropriation.
