CRANES RANCH,

SnANE - pANCh,
South Fork. July 20, 1908.
EDITOR INDEPENDENT:
Some of the ranchmen of this vicinity
do not appear to understand my posi-
ton in regard to the investigation of
the horse disease that has prevailed in
South Fork, Mound Valley and vicinity
for the past two years. AS con-
sequence valuable material has been and
is being lost. To insure better under.
standing and to promote cooperation
will you kindly publish this letter.?
I am making headquarters for the
summer at Crane Bros, Ranch on South
Fork, where am conducting a series of
experiments on horses. I am erecting
a building here to use as laboratory
and expect to devote practically my
entire time to this problem until we
understand thoroughly the disease in
question together with the best methods
for its eradication or control
1 desire to examine every affected
horse including those that may possibly
have the disease and to perform an
autopsy on all that succumb to it.
For this purpose will visit the ranches
where such animals are at any time
without cost to the owners provided
they will come for me. It is best to
telephone to the ranch before coming
for me. IF use medicine, I expect the
expense to be borne by the owner but I
make no charge for my services. This
point does not appear to be generally
understood. Of course, if 1 perform
surgical or clinical work outside of this
investigation 1 expect to be paid for
such work.
The chief symptoms so far noted in
the more acute cases are marked depres-
sion, loss of energy amounting in some
instances to complete prostration, from
rapid and labored respiration with
tumultnous heart action especially after
moderate exertion; more or less swelling
under the chest and abdomen and some
times of the legs; the mucous mem
branes of month, nose and eyes will be
pale or yellowish.
In the more chronic cases, the mucous
membranes are pale, the lower parts
of the body may swell, the animal
gradually loses energy and flesh and
finally dies after an illness of from
several weeks to in some instances
several months duration. Ineither con-
ditions there may be marked weakness
of the posterior limbs.
Doubtless the two conditions above
mentioned are but different manfesta-
tions Of the same disease

when the Negro can and ought TO

say, may God bless the efforts put
forth by you to arouse the Negro to
stand up like a man. Mr.. Chase told
the Republican Committee a few days
ago, that the Negro would not sup
port the Democratic party, because
said Chase: the Negro gets nothing
from the Democrats. Thereby giving
the impression that the Negro votes
only for Loaves and Fishes. But I be-
