MORE CASES ARE
/. FOUND IN COUNTRY
Hogs at NOtre Dame Are Suf-
fering From HOOf and
Mouth Disease and Are to
Be Slaughtered.

New infections of the foot and
mouth disease were discovered in a
herd OF 100 hogs and pigs at Notre
Dame yesterday BY DR.. Z. r.
Mcclure. u. S. inspector at New Car
Isle. and the entire herd will be
slaughtered early next week. Indi-
cations that the animals were suf-
fering from the malay was the in
formation given County Agent John
>. Bordner Friday morning and he
immediately called DR.. Mcclure to
Investigate the report
An examination OF the herd reveal
ed that % OF the animals were in
fected with the disease, according 10
Dr. Mcclure. He stated that the ami
mails Will be killed as soon as trench
eS for their burial are completed
which probably will be Monday or
Tuesday. Although the hogs were
not at any time in contact with tie
cattle who contracted the disease at
Notre Dame they were confined in an
adJouining pasture and are believed
TO have become infected in this man
ner.
This discovery is the first that has
been made in either st. Joseph or La
porte counties during the past 10
days and it was believed that the dis
ease was thoroughly stamped out.
Omciais are anxious that farmers and
stock owners carefully watch the ami
mails in order that the disease may be
detected as soon as it appears. As
several days are required tor the de-
velopment of the malady there is a
probability that other herds of hogs
may be infected Every precautiOn
IN the way of fumigatiOn and Sani-
tation is being observed by the
authorities in an effort to ward off
any further outbreak of the epidemic.
Reports that sharks were at
tempting to sell farmers permits to
move their produce, have been re-
ceived by County Agent BOrdner. one
farmer was approached by man
wishing to sell a permit during the
early part of the week but no other
instances have been learned thus far.
Mr.. Bordner urges that the farmers
remember that the only legal permits
being issued can be secured from
his office at the court house.
