Texas fever to cattle that are not nc,

ment has been made SO often that
there IL no question as to what the
result will be.
There have been many inquiries IN
regard to the Texas fever from the
kiOwa and COInmnnche country

were taken from western Oklahoma
and other localities where there was
no Infection and were brought In com
tact with Infection In the new cOuu-
try. This has resulted In "a great
many cases Of fever. 4 number have
sent ticks to the Experiment Station
at Saltwater, Oklahoma, to have
them identified.
The symptoms of Texas fever are
usually characteristic but other con-
ditions may give similar symptoms.
When the disease appears among
matured cattle there will always be

Texas Fever.

The frequent inquiries received In
regard to Texas fever make 1t neces-
sary to review In brief way the es-
sential features of the disease as well
az the general plan that may be
adopted by any one to prevent the
disease, or stop 1t, II 1t has already
appeared.
There are few people who doubt
the "tick theory" Of Texas fever.
For the benefit Of the few 1t may Ike
said that there IL no disease Of either
man or animal more thoroughly
worked out or better understood
than Texasfever OF cattle. The Bu-
reau Of Animal Industry began work
Ing on this question in 1889, and the
results Of a great many experiments
proved that the tick carried the dis
ease to susceptible animals. Since
this time every experiment station,
where the question was Of any i'm
portance. has done work along simi-
lar lines and always with the same
results-that the tick Is the means of
transmitting the disease.
No one ever saw an outbreak: of
Texas fever without the presence OF
ticks. The old theories in regard to
Texas fever have been completely
disprOven. The idea that southern
oGttle with sore feet or that saliva
rom these cattle was the means OF
Epraading the disease thns been en-
tirely disproven. At one time some
clained that bacteria were the cause
of he disease but all of these theories
nav, been disproven by experiment
,1g with the tick. The fever can he
.s.yen to susceptible cattle by placing
Young ticks on them or the disease
can be transmitted by inoculatinS

Died, October 9Th, 1902, at his home
Glen, Montgomery county, Md, James A
johnson, son of the late Alexander johnson
of Loudoun Co., Va, aged go years.
The deceased was gallant Confederate
soldier, a member of the Loudoun cavalry
from the beginning to close of the civil war
and was seriously wounded whilst with
jackson In the Valley Of Virginia, which
wound and the exposure incident to war
times, no doubt, shortened his days on earth.
James johnson was good man, honest, up
right. straight forward in all his dealings,
OF kind-hearted, generous, quiet disposi =
ton, he won the esteem Of all who knew
him. While not protesting christian, we
believe our loss is his eternal gain-he is at
rest-lree from pain and suffering, which
he bore with such patient endurance, which
ever marks the children of God. He leaves

The United German American Societies
OF the District of Columbia celebrated Ger.
man Day at Glen Echo Park on Sunday.
The entire park was profusely decorated
with flags Of America and Germany. Prof.
Donch's Cornet Band waited forth many
pleasing musical selections during the entire
evening. Sports and games of most every
variety, the chief one being the boar hunt,
as the young men chased the creased pig
through glen and dale for over an hour,
until it was captured by large German
youth, who sailed forth, pig under his arm,
achieved, as he thought, glorious accom-
plishment.
The baby show in the Amphtheatre was
OF great interest to all the guests and many
mothers, whose offspring were participants
in the contest for the prize offered for the
prettest baby. The potato race and fat
mems race were highly entertaining and
amusing. In the Auditorium vocal and
musical entertainment was in progress aud
the efforts of the artists were heartily ap.
plauded and encored. Dancing commenced
at the dancing pavilion at $50 and continued
until II o'clock. The attendance was es-
timated at $500.
The home of Capt. d. W. Houghton for
the past week has been thronged with visi-
tors from all parts OF the country. Among
those of special prominence were the broth.
er of the host, Mr.. John Houghton, accom-.
panied by his wife and daughter Florence,

horn member of the 9Th Independent New
York Battery and accompanied by his wife,
from Benton Harhor, Michigan, and Mr..
Matt. s. Berry, of Calias, Me-, of the 9Th

Among the many receptions and inform.
al balls and socials in our town last week
were those at the homes of Mr.. Arthur
Houghton and Mr.. VIM. H. Roach, where
elegance, grace and splendor were displayed.
The attendance of both were highly cultur-
ed personages. The reception extended to
these guests was one conducted with i'm
pressive ceremonies. The instrumental and
vocal selections were unsurpassed. Those
who were most in evidence In the musical
circle were Mr.. John Hammond, Mr.. Dodge,
W. Irving Calver and family, Ernest and
Arthur Houghton.
