Horses-The receipts OF horses for the initial
auction sale this week were smaller only about
$50 head having arrived. against 200 the same
time last week and $50 the corresponding time a
year ago. Most of the arrivals were a little
below the standard of their class in some par
tcular, and the average quality not salts
factory a week ago. There was fair crowd
of buyers attending the sale, but on account
of the absence of urgent orders. they were not
very strong bidders. and statesmen had some diff
fculty in transferring the supply at satisfactory
prices. 1t observed that there were very
rev horses in any class good enough to sell as
high as 500. while the proportion above $3.50 was
considerably smaller than two weeks ago, and
quite a number selling from 500 to sl35
Small ana less desirable horses sell from s35 to
$50 per head.

Alma's Epidemic of Typhoid has

Milk from a Local Farm.
WHITE RAT AND GUINEA PIG
DIED WHEN INOCULATED.
Analysis and Experiments Made from
Milk as Bought from Wagon.

For some time there has been an epi-
demic of typhoid fever in Alma and the
local health officers were unable to To-
cate the cause until short time ago,
when it was noticed that nearly all of
the cases were located along the milk
route and among the patrons of one
pai ticular dairy. Immediately steps
were taken to secure some Of the milk
and an investigation made regarding
the condition of the cows at the dairy
and their environment. 1t was found
that the barnyard was not in very
healthy condition.
The milk was procured by RESPONSE.
BILE person and under the direction Of
the local health board sample was
sent to baoteriologist for analysis,
which was done on Monday of last
week.
On Wednesday letter was received
from the bacteriologist station stating
that the milk had been received and a
white rat had been inoculated with it.
On Thursday another letter was received
stating that the rat had died before
seven o'clock the same day the milk
was injected into it, In this letter
statement was also made that a guinea
pig had been inoculated with the milk
and results were being awaited.
The following day letter was re-
ceived announcing that the guinea pig
died within "a hours after the injection
was made and the previous findings had
been verified, the milk being condemned
as unfit for use. In the analysis was
found, so the letter from the bacteriol-
