demonstrated beyond the shadow of
doubt that the turkey buzzard is a car
rier of anthrax. This fact was shown
incontrovertibily by DR.. Knight, the
state veterinarian of Texas, and de-
termined that when 1 came home I
would take such steps as I could to
prevent Il possible introduction of an
thrax through the buzzard's agency.
''The demonstration made at the
convention of this subject by DR.. Knight
is OF especial interest to Montana be-
cause of the fact that anthrax exists
in North Dakota and Nebraska, and
it would be no difficult thing for the
disease to be introduced into this state
by the buzzards. On my way home
from Minneapolis, made trip along
the Big Muddy in Valley county, and
while out saw several buzzards.

in other cases it will not prove fatal

not immune when the disease begins

nothing relative to the killing of buz-
yards, but to make sure I have asked
the attorney generals office to look into
the matter. If there is a law that pro.
tects the buzzard it ought to be repealed
at the first opportunity, and the
ranchers and stockmen ought to keer
their guns loaded for the ungainly
bird. A stitch in time saves nine, &C.

want to do in Montana is to prevent
the buzzard from introducing disease

Support Local Newspaper.

1t is all right to buy the big city
made, far-off publications. They give
stacks of paper and pounds of ink for
the money spent, but they were never
intended to do your community the
great benefit and give the show and
encouragement, the boost and assist
ance which your local home publica-
ton is printed to give. If outsiders
are DESTROYS of knowing what you are
doing and how you are getting along
and how prosperous and progressive
your community is, they will knock at
your own door; they will call at your
own domicle; they will seek a word
from your own pen, or they will send
for copy of your local publication to
note and understand what is really 60
ing on. OF course a dog fight or
family row may be going on at the
time, but between the lines the real
condition of affairs will be reflected
and the true state of your progress will
be shown. An old, mossb ack, NANCY
sheet means that such a class of people
live where it is published. A weak,
puny, struggling paper shows that
such a community supports it. A wide
awake, rustling, spicy, interesting
publication like the ROSEBUD COUNTY
News proves that a prosperous and
growing town or city is backing it up
with it's assistance and support. IT
you are loyal to your home town,
county and state, want to enjoy the
means for you, get behind your local
publication and push it to the front
| 1t costs but little; the return is exceed
ingly large. Try it and see.
