CHAMBER SCARE ABArING.

w. +. Crewe. the state veterinarian,
DR. Anderson the deputy state veterinarian
and Dr. Butler of the u. S. inspection ser
vice, have been here during the past week
and have taken vigorous measures to pre-
vent the spread of glanders. All of the
livery horses belonging to MIR. Hall have
been thorolv tested. each horse having
been submitted to the mallein test for CLAN
ders four times and any horse that showed
the slightest indication of the disease was
condemned. The condemned horses were
led out shot and buried Sunday. The liv
erv barn has been disintected by the most
thorough process known to veterinary sci
ence. All the managers and walls inside
have been thoroly sprayed with special
preparation for disinfect,ng purposes. and
white washed and the barn has been fumi-
gated DIR. Crewe informed the writer
that the livery barn was, at present, the
safest place in the country as far as infec-
ton from glanders were concerned. All
diseased animals in Beach have been killed
and barns: .:dsinfected. 1.-THE only danger is
that the disease still turks in the country
and neighboringN towns. However, eDr,
Anderson saws that he or some other dep
utv will spend a.couple of weeks in inves-
tigating conditions in the country.
1t is to be hoped that every assistance
will be given the veterinary in ferreting
out diseased animals, and thus aid in
stamping out the disease.
