HORSE SICKNESS Is OVER
State Veterinarian Says Cold Wealth
er Stops 1t.


er Stops 1t.
The horse epidemic, Borna sick
ness, is over for this season, accord
ing to DR.. Samuel Sheldon, state vet
erinarian. This disease, which caused
much alarm and considerable loss
among the owners of horses in Mis-
souri,, Kansas, Nebraska and Colora-
do, is bad in summer and fall, but
dies out when cold weather comes.
The disease is very similar to cere-
bro-spinal meningitis and comes al
an epidemic, affecting all classes and
breeds of horses.
Kansas farmers lost large num-
Der of horses by this disease this
summer and fall. An assistant to the
Kansas state veterinarian told Doc
tor Sheldon here that $4,000 worth
of horses had been lost this season.
The disease was lighter and the
cases fewer in Nebraska and Colo
RADIO. The state veterinarians in
those states report that they have no
cases now. Missouri is also wholly
free from it.
About a hundred cases we're re-
ported in Missouri this year. About
half of these cases were fatal. At the
first of the season large percentage
Of them were fatal, but when the
weather began to get cooler and the
cases fewer the attacks became
lighter.

DAY OF REST FOR
THE FOOTBALL men
No Scrimmage Held on Rol-
Inns Field Yesterday
Practice for Line.
SOME SLIGHT INJURIES
Brewer Teaches Men to Dive
Low in Charging-The
Ames Game.


The Tigers were put through very
light practice yesterday afternoon SO
that they could start the week with
out any bruises. There was no scrim-
mage. T. F.. Jones, the trainer, says
that a two days rest is necessary af-
ter a game to keep the soreness out
of the players.
Prof. c. L. Brewer took charge of
the line and T. E. Hackney the back
field. Professor Brewer spent most
of the afternoon teaching the line
men to play low. A cloth band
stretched between the goal posts about
four feet off the ground was used to
accomplish this. The men are sup
posed to charge and go under this
band without touching it.
Professor Brewer is trying hard to
develop a goal kicker. Thatcher and
Turley practised almost an hour yes
terday The team has been weak on
goal kickers all year. Turley was
in good kicking form and booted a
number of almost perfect goals from
the twenty-five yard line to the forty
yard line Turkeys specially is drop
kicking, while Thatcher is trying to
develop into a place kicker.
Four men were out Of the game yes
terday on account of injuries. Lake
and Wiggans were hurt in the Rolla
game Saturday. They both will be
fully recovered by the Ames game and
probably will start in it. Larue was
injured yesterday afternoon while
tackling. He strained a muscle in his
leg. 1t is not known how badly he
is hurt. McWilliam's bruised leg is
not improving as fast as it might and
it is almost certain that he will not
play in the Ames game. He could
play if necessary but the coaches
think that it is too much of a risk.
Turley and Lake will have to Shout
der the burden next Saturday. Tur-
ley's work Saturday was far from
pleasing, both to the coaches and the
rooters. Turley is a good kicker. has
an ideal build. is a hard man to catch
in an open field. but the team does not
seem to work well under his guidance.
He kept the rooters on edge Saturday
by his constant juggling of the ball.
Hupp was tried at end yesterday in
the signal practice in place Of LeNlire,
who was at his old position at left
half in place of Wiggans, who was
slightly injured. According to the
coaches, Hupp is going to make some
one hustle for an end. In case he
makes good. Missouri will have four
first class ends: LeNIire, Pixlee, Mills
and Hupp. These four ought to be
enough for any team.
]. A. Gibson, the mention of whose
name at once suggests football game
or a mass meeting to the average Mis-
souri, follower. was out in suit yes
terday, ready to coach. He has been
unable to come out until now. on ac-
count of other work. Doctor Gibson
has been helping coach as far back as
the oldest student can remember.
Ames probably will start the game
Saturday a strong favorite. Another
report from Ames. however. says that
they have lost another valuable man
through injury when Juhl, guard,
suffered a broken arm last week.
