DAIRYMEN
viii Fight Ohio TubeFCulin
Test
GGauga County Farmers Up
In Arms

Chardon, Sept 19-Eleven COWS
have done more toward thoroughly
arousing the farmers of Geauga coun.
ty than anything elese in years.
The cows belong to Steve Silver
nail of Chester. They were condemn
ed as having tuberculosis by inspec-
tors of Cleveland. State Veterinarian
Paul Fisher of Columbus has now
quarantined the herd.
These cows were said to have tuber-
culosis, after test by DR.. Claude v.
Case of Akron. Silvernail was not.
flied that his cows would be killed
Sept. 2, and was ordered to drive them
to South Euclid on that day. On ad-
vice from dairymen throughout the
county he refused to do this. Tues
day Inspector Baker came from Cleve-
land. He was met by about 100 dairy.
men and notified that he could not kill
the cattle or drive them away.
Baker returned to Cleveland and
that night telegraphed Silvernail that
the milk from his other II cows could
not be shipped into the city. Silver
nails total loss is SO day.
DR.. c. V. Smead, state veterinarian
of New York, is expected daily at the
Silvernail farm He will apply the
New York state tuberculosis test,
which is said to be more thorough,
consisting Of three different tests.
Silvernail has modern dairy barn,
as clean and sanitary as concrete and
a good water supply can make it. He
was dissatisfied with the test, as are
all the dairymen of Geauga county.
Geauga County's dairy receipts are
greater annually than the maple syrup
revenue. 1t is one of the most impor-
tant dairy counties in the state.
Dairymen have raised several hun
dred dollars to aid Silvernail in get
ting a square deal, and whatever
amount is necessary will be forthcom-
ing, they say.
The organization which dairymen
have just formed is called the Geau-
ga Dairymen's Defense Association,
with the object to test the right Of
the state to slaughter supposedly dis
eased cattle. They plan to make a
test case, and will begin suit to en-
join Ohio from enforcing the orders
to kill Silvernail's cows or further nj
terfere with his dairy.

RUMOR
OF A Double ElOpGmGDt From
This City
And That Parties Are Now
In Arizona
The Women In The Case
Are Married

There is rumor ip circulation that
two young men of this city, who are
very well known and two women, al.
so of this city, eloped some time ago,
leaving the city in a peculiar manner.
1t Is said that about four weeks ago,
the two couples decided to elope and
after a while, decided upon singu-
lar plan for leaving the city without
causing suspicion. The two men, both
of whom are married, are said to have
Lecured horses and took horseback
ride, but did not return. They went
to neighboring town and boarded a
train for Chicago, where they were
supposed to meet the women, who
were to follow a week later. 1t is
supposed that the latter two missed
connections somehow and did not
show up at the appointed time and
place so one of the men left a note
at the hotel in Chicago, instructing
the two women in the case to pur-
chase tickets for Douglass, Arizona.
AS far as is known, they followed in
structions and are now in Arizona.
The wives of the two men are still
supposed to be in the city, but no ef-
fort has been made by them to get
track of their husbands.

costs them more than they really can
