in a spot infected with the bacilli of
bIackleg left there possibly years ago
by some animal that died of the dis
ease. \ cut made by wire, or ii gore
from a horn offers a place for the
disease to enter the system. The dit
affected with the minute bacilli gets
il the wound and so into the blood,
and the animal is infected. or it
gets it through licking the ground for
salt or alkali, the animal having a
cut or sore on either the tongue or in
side tho mouth. This leads many
cattle men, posted on the disease, to
feed salt only in boxes or troughs.
The oklahoma experimental station
has done some very excellent work
in black leg investigation and their
bulletin on the subject is extremely
interesting.
Two calves were placed side by side
and fed vaccine matter without i'll
effects. Then a slight cut was made
in ones tongue ana both fed vaccine
again. The one died and the other
did not. Then earth mixed with the
vaccine matter was rubbed all over

Fight Against Blackleg
Among New Mexico
Herds on in Earnest

found in animals over three years of
age, and fully so per cent from eight
to twelve months old. Under eight
months, the cases are very rare. The
disease is in practically all cases, abso-
lutely fatal.
The symptoms are few. the animal
showing little sign of sickness until
it IS far developed. on the ranges
a lameness in the forefeet and legs
is generally the first symptom noticed.
The animal will probably be dead in
twenty-four hours. 1t is easy to tell
an animal that has died of black leg
for, owing to the immense mou of
gas found in the body, both before
and after death, the body is distended
to a remarkable degree. the legs be-
ing widely %distended, and sticking out
from the body very differently from a
a death by any other disease.
on pressing the skin on the fore
shoulder, sharp cracking sound will
be heard, due to the pressure Of gas
underneath the skin, while if a knife
is driven into it a dark frothy liquid
will Flow very slowly.
\ small member Of the baeilli fam
lily. These bacilli are in the soil, left
there by the death of some blackleg
animal. How long they will live in
the soil is not known, but 1t Is GER
tainly for many years.
The disease is not contagious, that
is. carried by contact from one ami
nal to another, but is infectious which
means hat one single animal in a
thousand may ave it n not an
other animal die from it.
The gentleman who gives his dis
coNery to the world quotes the fact
that in Texas of two herds on oppo-
site sides of a wire fence. one lost
many animals by the disease, While
the other lost none. Easily explain
able by the fact thai one pasture was
with black leg while the
other was not.

A Chaep Durable Pavement.

The little city of Mahkato,
Mimi. has solved the problem of
constructing cheap durable
pavement, and can be used on
steep grades as readily as on a
fiat surface. 1t has now stood
more thau two years of traffic and
does not show wear.
In making the pavement the
roadway was excavated to a
depth of 6 inches and surfaced.
Then . inches of dry crushed
limestone was put down with a
lotion steam roller. Boiling tar
from the local gas works was next
applied until the entire surface
was covered. A layer of broken
stone, l inch to i inches in di-
ameter, mixed with coarse gravel,
followed this in the proportion of
parts stone to l part gravel.
This was mixed dry on a platform
and then thoroughly saturated
with hot tar.
The resultant mixture was laid
. inches thick and tamped into
place. Dry domestic cement was
then applied over this and the
street was again rolled. A layer

side OF a few private families the
price Of able board was given an
unwarrantable advance. Some ac-
ton must be taken by our members
as individuals or by the association
as body to remedy this condition.
The management has all it can
handle without undertaking to con-
duct hotels as a side line, but some
means must be devised to secure for
our employees more congenial living
places.
We are pleased to report that het
railroad claims mentioned in the
Managers report two years ago
have been adjusted and on December
18th the amount, some 81, 500 was
apportioned among the growers in
terested.
The management during the past
year has endeavored to keep our
current expenses as low as consistent
with safe methods of operation,
and in addition to our own fruit we
marketed several cars for neighbor-
ing shippers which produced a reve-
nue. of S6S5.O0. this amount being
used in defraying our own expenses
OF marketing.
1t will not be out of place now to
mention a practice that is rapidly
growing into an abuse of our accom-
modations. In looking over our
annual statement to the growers we
find an increasing number of items
of merchandise returned. While we
are glad to extend any reasonable
accommodation, such as guarantee
ing the quality OF an article sold by
us, we should decline to permit grow
ers to return all unused merchandise
at the end of a season, especially
that which cannot be returned in
good condition. 1t costs more than
the average grower realizes to carry
such a stock as we do, and III we
have to handle a part of it three or
four times on our small margin OF
profit we can better afford to relin-
quish this branch of the business.
Wholesale houses make rule that
merchandise must be returned within
ten days and then only at n reduc-
ton OF ten per cent. from original
purchase price. 1t may be necessary
for us to adopt similar measures the
coming year.
Now. let us turn to the future for
a moment. For two years we have
disappointed our new friends in the
eastern markets. Ii will be difficult
for us to regain I'm their favor with
such a shortage of first class fruit as
we have had in the past two seasons.
You may not realize it. but the fact
remains that the markets for low
grade stock are continually decreas-
ing in their demand, and the people
on whom we have to depend for our
outlet are being educated to better
quality. They are willing to pay
the price and we must give them
what they want or make way for
those who will. Conditions were
never so favorable for a good crop
OF good fruit in 1909. Let us forget
the disappointments and discourage
ments of the past and bend every
energy towards making this the
banner year OF our history.
Respectfully submitted,
A. l. CRAIG, Acting Manager.

old farmer was just exactly right
who said: when l got money
from you, you told me to 60 out
and get some of my farmer
friends to go on my note; now 1
have lot to give into your keep
ing. and you go out and get some
of your banker friends to go on
your note" Who dares to saw
that is not fair, just and right.
The people of this state de-
mand a guaranty law for deposr-
tors. more than any other law.
and the party promised then,
such law. and now it has got t.,
make good or it will be put out
of business at the mex, election,
as it should be. Any member of
the present legislature who votes
against such measure had better
get himself job somewhere else,
for he will be marked and
doomed man, and every Demo-
cratic newspaper in the state will
camp on his trail for the rest
of his life, and Plaindealer will
take pleasure in being one of
them.
Every voter should write a let
ter at once to his legislator and
senator, demanding the passage
of the guaranty law. and give
him to distinctly understand that
those who vote against it will
be considered traitors to the just
cause of the people.
OF all the descendants of the
Shylocks and money changers
whom Christ lashed from the
temple who gathered in Denver
this week to defeat that righteous
Legislation, Alva Adams was the
only one who had the manhood
and the decency to stand up for
it, and for this we give him all
honor and praise.
The people have been worked
for fools and suckers by the
bankers long enough-too long
and right now is the accepted
time to let the banker know that
a depositor's money is just as
good as his money. and has just
as much right to safety and Sc
urity-Ouray Plaindealer.

The cost was so cents a lineal

People Demand Bank Safety and Party
Promised II.
AS was to be expected. the
Colorado Bankers are up in arms
lobbying against the passage of
the guaranty law for depositors
in banks which was promised in
the Democratic state platform
and which above every other
needed legislation the rank and
file of the people demand. No
bankers association ever yet
favored anything in a financial
line which would be of a benefit
to the people. All they are look
ing after is their own selfish
selves, and little they ever care
how many millions are stolen by
their members from the savings
of the poor.
Any bank or banker who is not
willing to give to the depositor
the same safety and security
which he demands for himself
from the depositor ought to be
put right square out of business,
and the very fact that he opposes
the giving of security to the man
or woman who gives up all their
money to his keeping is evidence
of his own dishonesty. If he is
honest he will not object to CIV
ing the depositor just as good Sc
curity as he demands himself
when he loans money, and if he
refuses such a just demand then
he is either unfair or dishonest,
one of the two. and maybe both.
When you 60 to a bank for
money the banker demands abso-
lutte security for both principal
and interest, yet when he takes
from you your money he objects
to giving any security whatever.
There is nothing fair or Just
about it, and never has been, and
that large percentage of them
will steal that money and leave
thousands in destitution has been
amply proven, in Colorado and in
every other state in the Union.
and is being proven more and
more every day.
There are many bankers in our
penitentiafies, and thousands
more of them ought to be there.
and would be there if they got
justice
This thing of the banker get
ting gilt edged security and the
depositor getting no security
whatever has got to be put stop
to. and ought TO have been
stopped many years ago.
No man or woman who puts
money in a bank today has any
security on earth that he will
