PLAGUE N KANSAS
ON MANY FARMS AL HORSES
HAVE DIED AND DISEASE ls
sAlp TO De SPREADING. Is
FARMwoRK Is uNDoNE.
Until Experts Ascertain q Remedy,
People Hesitate to Purchase
Stock and the Situation 10
Consequently Critical.

Topeka, Kansas.-Farm work is
going undone In western Kansas for
lack Of horses killed by the plague.
Crops remain ungathered and fall
blowing is weeks behind. On many
farms all the horses have died. I'm
til experts ascertain positively a rem
edy for the disease, the farmer is un.
willing to purchase more horses.
3. The disease is rapidly spreading
eastward. according to reports receiv-
ed by ]. G. Mercer, state live stock
sanitary commissioner.
Mr.. Mercer has sent out warning
that horses all over the state should
be kept of pastures and given no wa
ter except from wells. The streams
and ponds are said by experts to
swarm with diplicocci, which cause
meningitis.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
railroad took q hand in the fight on
the disease when its officials sent two
trained veterinarians to the plague
stricken district. All agents Of the
company in Kansas were instructed
TO report on the number Of horses that
have died of the plague in their dis
trict and whether the horse was kept
of the pasture before taking sick.
This information, experts say. will be
Of great aid in determining the exact
nature Of the malady.
A conference of all the veterinarians
Psychologists and psychologists now
treating horses afflicted with the mys.
ferrous disease has been called by
Gov. Stubs and Mr.. Mercer.
kilograms asking the men to assem-
BILE in Topeka have been sent out. It
is hoped to organize for systematic
fight on the plague and action is
expected that will result in every
horse in the state being kept from
pasture for an indefinite period.
DR.. R. sophian, a meningitis expert
from New York, told Gov. Stubs that
in the disease affecting the horses
he had noticed conditions similar to
those attending infantile paralysis in
humans, and that the malady was dis.
similar to meningitis.
