Being Vacci-
~ mated for Cholera

Farmers OF Dickinson county are
beginning to believe that hocul
pocus game OF some kind is being
played on them this month in which
the scene is shifted continuously
from the horse pasture TO the hos
pen and back again. The hog chol-
era which has been affecting herds
in other parts OF the states has
fought shy OF Dickinson county un-
til last week when several herds
at Enterprise showed signs of the
infection. A number Of hogs be-
longing to Robert TopIiff have died
and the disease is spreading to other
herds. Many Of the farmers around
Enterprise have been vaccinating the
last few days and most OF the hogs
of the county will probably be vac
cinated within a short time. The
hog cholera, which used to take
whole herds OF hogs without leav-I
ing any recourse to the farmers, has
become controllable disease and
can easily be prevented by innocu-
lation.
Farmers need to be urged again
to give immediate attention to their

way, of the pioneer instinct through
the ages past and it's relation to
our modern western civilization.
Congressman R. r. Rees followed
with a very interesting talk in which
he told of some things the recent
congress has done. He spoke par
ticularly OF the Panama Canal, pen
sion law and the parcels post. The
making of the canal free to American
ships was declared to be the opening
wedge of upbuilding the merchants
marine. The pension law which will
probably be the last general pension
law ever adopted by United States
congress and he told how worthy a
measure had been finally framed.
He explained the parcel post law
and showed how 1t will cost more
to send parcel long distance than
a short distance. "You read in the
papers," said he. ''of the drawing
Of party lines and the fierce politi-
cal contest in congress, but the truth
is that 80 per cent of all the legis-
lation adopted is worked out in har-
mony by both parties and politics
does not enter into it at all. The
members of congress are there TO
do the best they can for the people
of the nation as a whole and they
are big enough to forget political
differences on matters of Importance
to the nation" He closed with a
tribute to the prosperity and hap
piness to the Kansas farmer and de-
clared that central Kansas possesses
the highest average Of prosperity
and content of any section of this
nation. Senator George H. Hodges
made the closing address of the af-
ternoon. 1t was an eloquent and |
pleasing talk devoted to the history
of the settler who left the old ciyili-
sation for the new and built up the |
prosperity which has come TO the /
orairfes. It was filled with word Pfc

The local veternaries are not
agreed with the information sent
out by Gov. Stubbs within last few
days to the effect that only horses
that have been in pastures have
been affected by the disease which
has been raging in this part Of the
state. DR.. Makins said this morning
that more dry feed horses in Dick
inson county had taken down in
the last 4S hours than horses In
pastures and 1t was his opinion that
the disease is carried through the
air rather than caused by mold on
the grass roots, DR.. Makins sights
as proof for his theory the George
Huffman family horse which died
this morning and which had not
been IN pasture or drinking out of
any but home water trough. It Is
fact however that the disease s.
waning and horses are not taking
the disease in anything like the
large number that we're at this time
last week. Two horses died In this
community today. One Of them bc-
longed to Richard Vanderbilt and
the other to Geo. Kniser. w. J. Walr
ters' horse also took the disease this
morning Or. Makips says that ey-
cry horse which has been affected
by the disease has died. DR., Kinsley
Of Kansas City was here Saturday
and with number OF local veter-
naries made several post ,mortem
examinations. Absolutely nothing
was found to locate thetrouble and
Dr. KnglAy still insists mat the dis
ease Is caused by mold on the grass
roots. All. the specialists have been
,alIed to Topeka for special con-
terence today and something may
levelop there that win stamp out
he disease.
The local livery men and NUM-
'er of local horse owners have been
lisinfecting their stables and not
'Orse has taken sick where these
nd other proper precautions have

Horses Are Dying
From Unknown Cause

hand in the horse disease which
has been spreading over the state
and a corps of it's best experts will
be on the job tomorrow. The fol-
lowing telegram came to Senator
Curtis today: "Hon. Charles Curtis,
Topeka, Kan. Instructions issued for
twelve vetinarians report Dodge
City, Kan, the 18th instant, to con-
tinue investigation OF horse disease.
DR.. Herman Busman. Denver Colo,
will be in charge. A. Hays, Act
ing Inspector"
Senator Curtis says he hopes these
men will be sent to the various sec
tions of the state and that a cure
for the disease may be found soon.
All the experts of the state and
agricultural college met at the state
house yesterday and were in con-
ference all day, They were unable
to solve the mystery hanging around
the disease but agreed uRon the
following recommendations y
/. That all horses and mules
be taken off pasture until freezing
weather.
g., Feed these animals on green
corn fodder, cane or kaffir, bran,
oilmeaI, or in fact any food that
has laxative action.
8. Feed cautiously hay cut from
low or overplowed land, or that land
receiving drainage from pasture.
4. See that the horses have a
pure, wholesome water supply, free
from surface drainage, and that
they are excluded from all still,
stagnant or surface water.
5. Empty, clean and thoroughly
disinfect all water troughs and tanks
by scrubbing out with solution Of !.
four ounces of carbollc acid in a
gallon of water once week.
9. Fast the animal from twelve
to twentgAEour hours and administer
on an empty stomach one quart Of
raw linseed OIL to which has been
added two ounces of turpentine. Re-
peat this In twelve to twenty-four J,
hours. Great care should be taken
In administering the oil for fear
of strangulation, Drench slowly. in
,ase the animal strangles, lower the
read. A quart and half of melted
ard may be substituted for the oil.
Never give any drench through the
lostril. Instead of the oil, capsule
