rargement for paying off usually re-
quires from three to four days, but
the actual work of handing out the
salaries does not take much time.
In most of the departments the old
custom of having the employees form
line and sign a ledger has been
abandoned. In some departments it
is still the rule, but it is understood
that it is not looked upon with favor,
except in cases where there are a
great many employees receiving
small salaries, and forming a line and
signing for the pay envelope expedite
matters
The approved method of paying off
now is to deputize as many assistant
clerks as may be necessary to take
the package of pay envelopes and dis
tribute them. This, it has been
found, is more to the liking of the
employees, and, too, it avoids the
confusion and the general suspension
of work that are unavoidable when a
line is formed and each must wait

CONTROL BLIND STAGGERS
Department of Agriculture Answers Request for
Advice From the States Where Horses
Have Been Affected.

Washington, March 2.--In past
years horses have died by the thou
sands in Texas, Iowa, Kansas and Ne
braska from a disease affecting the
nervous system, popularly known as
blind staggers or forage poisoning.
The department of agriculture has re-
ceived urgent requests for help
against this disease from 16 different
States, and as a result it is now pub
fishing a bulletin containing definite
instructions for combating this dis
ease.
The States that appealed to the de-
partment of agriculture for assistance
include the : following: Colorado,
Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mary
land, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey,
North Carolina, Oregon, South Caro-
lima, South Dakota, Virginia, West
Virginia
This shows the universally of the
disease. Kansas and Nebraska bore
the brunt of the affection during the
past year, but other States have also
suffered seriously. Kansas has had
more than her share. Severe out
breaks extended over almost the en-
tire State in 1891 and since that
date have required with equal severi-
ty on two occasions in various por-
tions of the State.
The bulletin takes notice Of the
fact that additional deaths have un-
doubtedly been due to the use of fake
cures sold by unscrupulous per-
sons. 1t is reported that in Nebraska
"black-leg vaccine was used on at
least 800 unaffected horses, nearly
1900 of which are said to have died
as direct result.
Investigators have practically es-
tablished that this horse disease can
be controlled effectively only by
total change of feed and forage. 1t is
quite obvious that there is direct
connection between the green for
age, exposed pasturage and newly
cut hay or fodder which the horses
eat, and this cerebro-spinal menin-
gifts, as the disease is known to
scientists. In fact, eating of such
forage when contaminated is un-
doubtedly the most important cause.
Over 95 per cent. of cases of this dis
ease in Kansas and Nebraska during
the outbreak of 1912 were maintain
ed under such conditions.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1914-04-16

Great care must be taken that
horses do not obtain the dangerous
forage unknown to their owners. The
owner of one farm Informed the de-
partments investigator that his dead
horses had eaten nothing but old hay
and grain.
"But what about the closely
cropped grass in this pasture?" re-
marked the investigator, noticing the
adjacent field.
"Oh," answered the farmer inno-
Gently, 'T always turn the work
horses into pasture over night
Many horses have died from blind
staggers caused by eating moldy
baled hay. AS soon as the hay was
eliminated the disease ceased. Other
horses in the vicinity not fed upon
this hay failed to contract this dis
ease. Later some of the moldy bales
were opened and exposed to the sun
for three or four weeks. After this
the hay was fed to horses without
producing any i'll effect. Forage
poisoning, therefore, seems not to be
an infection. but rather what is call
ed "auto-intoxication" that is, it is
due to certain chemical poisons or
toxins formed by the activity of in
ternal organisms. These poisons
may be present when the forage in
the stomach. The nature Of this
poison is still unknown.
When the horse is taken with the
blind staggers it usually exhibits a
disturbance of the appetite, depres-
sion and weakness, while there is
trouble in swallowing, dropping OF the
head and sleepiness which may give
way to excitement and attacks of
dizziness. The vision is impaired,
which results in the staggering gait
that gives the disease it's popular
name. Certain muscles of the neck
and flanks are cramped and there is
a grinding of the teeth. Sometimes
the animal has pains as though it
we're afflicted with collie. The animal
will walk strangely if in an open
space and will try to push through
any obstacle it encounters. In
the stable he will press his head
against the stall or rest it on the
manger. Sometimes he will crowd into
a corner. The temperature at the be-
ginning Of the disease ranges from
1O3 to 107 degrees F., but within "a

his turn and then aflx his name to
the pay roll ledger,
The custom of having the pay en-
velopes distributed among the en-
ployees originated, it is stated, in the
treasure department.
The bulk of money used by Uncle
Sam in paying off in the District is
usually fresh and crisp from the bu-
reau of engraving and printing. Of
tentimes every bill in the pay roll of
every department has never known a
fold or crease and is as flattand as
free from wrinkles as it was the mo-
ment it came from the press. AS a
rule the disbursing clerks of each de-
partment endeavor to pay off with
brand-new bills, but when enough
newly-made money is not at hand, or
when it is not convenient to pay
wholly in new bills, other money is
used. Badly soiled bills are never
given to Uncle Sans employees.
All the bills come from the big
print shop" as the bureau of engrav-
ing and printing is familiarly known
in Washington. From that place
money is transferred to the United
States treasury. 1t is removed in a
closed van and is guarded at the
rear from four to six detectives,
mounted policemen and secret service
men. 1t is received at the treasury
department and receipted for to those
officials when taken away by the dis
bursting clerks of the various depart
ments. After it leaves the treasury
department the officials there are no
longer responsible for it and it be-
comes the care of the officials of
the departments to which it has been
consigned.
When the number of employees of
a department is so great as to make
the pay roll a rather huge affair, the
money is not carried away from the
treasury in bags by the disburslng
clerk and his assistant, but is trans
ferred in wagon. These wagons are
kept under strict guard while they
are in transit and are being unload
ed and the money removed to the Of
flee of the disbursing clerks. To the
casual observer it may possibly seem
that those handling the money are
careless with it and are running a
dangerous risk by exposing the pack
ages or bags, as the case may be, to
passers-by. But should the casual
observer have any anxiety about this,
it would be just as we'll to allay it
at once, for not only is there a po-
liceman or two close at hand, but
secret service men are there also and
the misguided wrong-doer who
might hope to grab package and
make his escape is the widest pos
sible visionary.

hours the temperature falls and
eventually becomes subnormal. The
animal is often down 'on the second
or third day and may not get up,
when urged. Death usually occurs
in from four to eight days, although
death may follow within ten hours of
the first symptoms, while chronic
cases have been known to last for
three weeks. About 80 per cent. of
the affected animals die.
While medical treatment in the
vast majority of cases has not brought
results, nevertheless If it is used at
all it must be prompt and before the
disease has had time to run. The di-
gestive tract should be cleaned out
thoroughly at once. Active and con-
centrated remedies should be given.
Afflicted animals, however, have great
difficulty in swallowing Immediately
after being taken, so that these rem
edies must generally be given by in
lection. Arecolin in one-half grain
doses, simultaneously, has given
good results as a purgative. Early in
the disease urotropin in doses of 25
grains dissolved in water and given
by the mouth every two hours ap-
pears to have been responsible for
the recovery of some cases of the
malady.
After the animal has been purged,
the treatment varies according to the
symptoms. The following measures
have been recommended:
The first and most important: Feed
only clean, well-cured forage and
grain and pure water.
Calomel, salol and salicylic acid, to
disinfect intestines.
Mild antiseptic mouth washes are
advisable.
Copious cold water injections, if
the temperature is high, give better
results than antipyretics.
An ice pack applied to the head
is beneficial in the case of marked
nervous disorder.
One ounce doses of chloral hydrate
per rectum should be given if the pa
tient is violent or muscular spasms
are severe.
If the temperature becomes sub
normal, the animal should be warmly
blanketed.
If much weakness is shown this
should be combated with stimulants
such as strychnine, camphor, alcohol
atropine, or aromatic spirits of am
monia.
During convalescence the usual
tonic treatment is recommended.
