state. .. - t.t
The disease has made its appear
ance in number of counties, and, in
view of the costly experience of former
years, is expected to increase in viru-
lence as the high waters recede. !
In realization of this fact planters
appealed to Senators Percy and Will

agriculture to send veterinarians to
the state.
Vaccination in time will prevent the
spread of Charlton, but it is highly i'm

quickly as possible. Ten years ago
an epidemic of Charlton in the delta
killed live stock valued at fully $780,
