The strange disease which made its ap-
pearauce recently among horses III the south
ern section of the county and which, 1t WIS
feared, would develop into destructive cpl
demic, is not, it now appears, of a contagious
nature and has not shown signs of spreading.
Mr.. Martin Young, who lives on the "Three
Springs" farm near Adanlstown, and who,
as reported in Tie News, lost five ho scs
from the disease has since lost another one,
but with the exception of these and those
lost by Mr.. Howard Allnuti, of near Llcks-
vile, the disease seems to have caused no
losses. Stale Veterinary Inspector Harry A,
Meisner, of Baltimore, who was asked to
make an investigation. this week visited the
farms upon which the disease made its ap-
pearance and after an examination of the
animals and an inquiry into The manner in
which they had been ted, decided that the
disease was due to bad corn, and that the
fact that all of Mr.. Young horses had been
afflicted with it was not due, as supposed, to
conlagion, but to- the fact that they had all
eaten of the same sort of corn.-Nc,os.

would be some statutory revision but

considered, aklllfuIly drawn aud con-
seryatlye anti trust bill, which while il
would not inJure any so-called trust
doing a legitimate business would, il
placed on statutes and enforced, pre-
vent the unjust and nefarious practices
which have in the past operated to
build up gigantic monopolles and drive
competitors out of the market. While

tanned in the proposed law, they will
