Discovers Case of Spotted Fever.

Assistant State Veterinary Baughman
Discovers Case of Spotted Fever.
Fort Dodge, March 21.-Dr Baugh-
man, the assistant state veterinary,
has returned from Boxholm, where he
discovered a case of spotted fever
among the horses on certain farm.
Spotted fever is known as the great
plague, or cerebro spinal meningitis,
and when it broke out in New York
City two years ago, was heralded with
dread.
The disease is fatal to animals as
well as to people. The animals af-
flicted with it have been killed, while
the entire farm has been placed under
the strictest quarantine. Parts Of the
stables have been burned, while the
entire place will be gone over with dis.
infectants. DR.. Baughman thinks that
the precautions that have been taken
at Boxholm have been sufficient to
stamp out the disease and to prevent
it's temperance.

SOME GOOD COLTS WANTED.

SOME GOOD COLTS WANTED.
We will have a ranch man here from
Montana next Friday and Saturday.
at the big horse sale, who wants to
buy car load Of coming yearling colts.
He says these must be horse colts,
heavy boned high grade or full blood
Norman Shire or Clyde. He wants
none but strictly first class colts. but
he is willing to pay away up for the
kind he wants. Another colt buyer
sends me word he will be here and
will buy any class of good colts from
yearlings up. He wants colts to turn
on grass for the coming summer, l
have any number of inquiries for cheap
work horses, even thin pluggy horses.
This class and the colts should be
brought in for Saturday. We are ca
pecting a great big sale this week,
and I look to have possibly more buy
ers for all classes of horses than we
have had at any sale this year. You
know this is tax paying month, and
there is a penalty added unless you
pay them this month, and as this is
our last sale in March it will be your
last opportunity to turn your horse or
colt into tax money.
AS the roads are better now, we
look for big attendance, probably a
larger crowd of buyers and visitors
than we will have at any future sale
this spring.
