posed of the following: Judge Criswell,
president; secretary, L. X. Smiley
County Commissioners, J. NJ. Black,
James Plimpton aud S. A. Thomas T;
Sheriff, Fred T. McCollum. The object
of the board is to put the prisoners serv-

C. L. Gerow of the Central House
has possessed himself off very neat nap
tina launch, which he has been try ing for
the past few days on the river eddy. 1t
is sixteen feet in length, carries half
horse power gasoline engine and screw

WIN. Diekrager, of Hickory town
ship, was in town Friday getting some
remedies for disiniecting his premises
against disease which has been taking off
his young cattle Of late. He has lost five
mead this summer, all from the same
cause, which Deputy State Veterinarian
DR.. Geo. b. Jobson, of franklin. has d.
aguosed as "black-leg." The disease
takes none but young stock, up two years
of age. Cattle beyond that age are con-
sidered to be immune. 1t is germ dis
ease, and may be transmitted from one
critter to another, or may lie dormant in
the soil for years, inoculating cattle
through sores or abraisions of the skin
when they come in contact. The State
Veterinarian advises vaccination of all
cattle that have been exposed, which
seems to be preventive. None of Mr..
Diekrager's neighbors have lost any cat
tie by the disease, and it would seem that
the disease is confined to some spot on
his farm which he is unable TO discover.
Billy thinks he will abandone cattle rails
ing for while.
