CALVES SPREAD GERMS.
Vaccine Animals Caused Epidemic OF
"EoOt And MOuth' Disease.

Foot And Mouth Disease.
Accidental incubation of calves used
by wholesale medicine farms for the pro-
pagation of vaccine virus is said to have
started the epidemic of the deadly foot
and mouth" disease last fall, which ne
cessitated quarantine in Maryland,
Pennsylvania, New York and other States
and cost the U. S. Government 100000
tie trade caused loss of thousands of
dollars. Results of an investigation con-
Quoted by Government scientists of the
Public Health and Marine Hospital Ser
vice, show that the contaminated strain
of virus originally came from foreign
country. The Government announce
ment says that Pennsylvania company
imported certain smallpox vaccine virus
which was contaminated with the infec-
ton of foot and mouth disease. In
May, 1908, some vaccine of this strain
was procured by company in Detroit.
"Calves used by the latter firm in pro-
pagating vaccine were sent October l6 to
the Detroit stock yards and thence on the
same day to farm near Detroit" say s
the report. "On October 20 three car
loads of cattle from points in Michigan
reached the Detroit stock yards and were
put into the pens that had been occupied
by the vaccine calves four days previous
ly. Some were sold for slaughter at De-
troit, while the remainder were shipped
to Buffalo and some were reshipped to
Danville and Watsontown, Pa, where
the disease was first observed some days
later. The disease spread to various
places in Pennsylvania and New York
and to one locality in Maryland.
"Three separate series of experiments
were made by Drs. Moher and Rosenau.
Young cattle and sheep were inoculated
with vaccine virus obtained from both
firms. Foot and Mouth disease was
produced in experimental animals by the
use of vaccine of the same strain obtain
ed from both sources, while other strains
of vaccine tested gave negative results.
The disease was also transmitted from
one animal to another through severa
series, in two instances by natural modes
of infection"

BETTER RAILROAD Connections
The Plan Looks 10 be Feasible and
Practical.

Ina recent talk with Mr.. Tom Ed
monds on the subject Of better rail-
way service for Farmville, he threw
out this suggestion. and we were inn
pressed By it. Use the road bed
which has already been constructed
from this place to Hampden-Sidney
and beyond. finish it 10 Keysville, and
and make Of it a railway automobile
line. for passengers and freight The
outlay. in his opinion. is in easy reach
Of Farmville without aid from the out
side. and the connections would give
US touch with the Virginian and South
ern railways, making with the two we
already have, four railroad systems 10
bid for our traffic. Il would give
Hampden- Sidney what the College now
most needs and meet a l0ng-felt need
If Farmviile. Think it over talk II
over and let's get busy about it.

ABOUT A BAND FOR FARNVILLE.
We CAN HAVE II, AND MUST HAVE IT.
Keep Up The Music Until the Music
Begins.

In last weeks Herald We made
claims for q permanent band for Farm
vile and now We renew it, and would
do so with added earnestness.
We have been informed that the
instruments are already here, and
that the players upon them are already
here too. Why not get together and
let the music begin:
Now that the open-air season IS
upon US again what would be more
acceptable than a concert betw zen
the hours of and p. m, about the
monument, and say three evenings OF
the week? It would tend TO drive
away the WEAKNESS incident to the
work OF the days and send US to our
beds TO dream pleasantly and to awake
in the morning ready for better work.
We believe the people of Farmviile
are ready 10 sustain this venture and
make II a success. During the re-
cent past two bands from a distance
have been brought 70 US and AZ a cost
Of more than TWO hundred dollars.
Farmville can and should make It's
own music just as it makes other
things in the home market, and OF the
very best. This is the Herald 5 sug-
gestion. and now let's 70 work

CHILDREN's DAY At NIGHT.
AND YET THEY MADE IT BRIGHT As DAY
By The Clean OF Their Eyes and the
GLOW They Gave TO the Occasion.

Children's Day Services were held
at the Methodist Church on last
Sunday at p. N.
If the people were as anxious TO
attend upon Church services as they
are TO be present when the children
are 10 sing and say things, our preach
ers would never again face empty
pews. Long before the doors were
opened on last Sunday evening a great
crowd had gathered in front Of the
building and when they were thrown
open there was a vigorous rush for
the inside and within a few minutes
the Church was crowded to It's full ca
pacity, and right well was the audi
ence repaid for its waiting and rush
ing.
The program had been prepared
with thorough and good taste, Miss
Alice Paulett being the presiding and
directing genius. and il was executed
with marvellous quickness and accu-
racy. We have always known that
our Methodist children were gifted
singers but we did not know that
they were born singers until little
Misses Rebecca Lipscomb and Mary
Lindsey rendered those faultIess and
heart-moying solos. That girls Of
their tender ages should have been
trained 70 stand alone in presence
Ike that, with weii-nigh a thousand
people looking and listening, keeping
perfect time TO the organ accompani-
ment and singing with the freedom
and sweetness Of birds in tree tops,
was a revelation 70 US, and gives evi-
dence Of genuine genius. which had
been guided by a veritable queen Of
song. And when the school sang in
concert, not only did the grouping
make an Impressive picture, but the
harmony was Ike that made by keys
IN perfect accord.
The messages. and 'recitations'
were well conceived and well deliver
ed, and the pastor catching on TO
the spirit Of the occasion, encompos-
sed in a two-minutes talk a wealth OF
helpful suggestions.
The exercises had been divided into
twenty distinct heads, and yet within
an hours time the whole had been
concluded without let or hindrance.
Well done, teachers and scholars

school. and we but voice the senu-
