NORTH DAKOTA
INFECTED WITH ScAB
Nine Carloads Of North Dakota Cattl'
-..-,, Condemned In Chicago.

DICKINSON, N. D.-Local cattlemen have
been anxious about the condemning Of nine car
loads of cattle In Chicago belonging to Beisigl
Brothers.
The cattle were shipped from Glen U1lin and
were condemned having scab, which is the
first instance of cattle scab reported from
the cattle country in western North Dakota.
There have been reports Of the disease north
of the Missouri river, but not to any extent.
The Besigl cattle Canadian stock and It
is likely that other cattle which have been on
the range are also affected.
The Glen Ullin stockyards have been locked
and a very close watch will be kept to detect any
cattle infected with scab.
Regulations may be enacted requiring the Dip
ping Of all cattle each year, which will entail
an expense Of 80 or 40 cents a head.
