he expects Congress to appropriate
1884, 900 in addition to $1,000 for the
purpose of encouraging the raising OF
blooded cattle in the cleaned-up area.
1t is also the aim of the Department
of Agriculture to have the present laws
amended SO that it will be necessary TO
clear cattle of the ticks by dipping them
in an arsenic preparation before ship

"As We eliminate a territory of ticks
We Rave to be doubly careful to guard
that territory" said DR.. Melvin in sup
port of his plan for XII ling the ticks
before shipping cattle. ''In case of
accidents to cattle en- route, by the
tre aking down of trains or something
of that sort. the ticks might get out
and reInvest q cleared area. Then there
is always the danger of ticks being
blown out of the cars
Tie So. go sought by DIR. Melvin is to

where animal husbandry and dairyirg
have not been extensively carried on

SOUTHWEST FREE
Of CATTLE DISEASE
NO CASES TO BE FOUND IN GRAZ
ING SECTION OF
STATE.

Bristol Va, Nov 12.-Although
cattle shippers of this section have
suffered Inconvenience and loss on
account of the widespread quarantine
restrictions, no foot and mouth dis
ease has been found In East Ten
nessee or Southwest Virginia, &C
cording to veterinarians. Although
the disease has been widespread, cat
tie in East Tennessee and Southwest
Virginia seem thus far TO have
escaped and ii is now considered that
there Il is little likelihood of 1t extend
ing into this section.
Foot and mouth disease is known
among veterinarians as aphtnous
fever 1t is an acute and highly in
fictitious disease, principally injecting
cattle. although hogs. sheep, goats
and other animals are also suscep-
tible. The disease In also sometimes
communicated 10 man Fever char
acterizes the complaint. This is ae-
companied by the eruption OF vesi-
Giles or blisters on the mucuous mem
brance of the mouth and on the skin
between the toes and above the hoofs
1t spreads easily and rapidly among
susceptible animals.
This disease has been very preva-
lent in Europe, but has occurred in
the United. States only at rare inter-
walls. The first outbreak of ailment
occurred in this country in 1870. and
since that time the dates of outbreak
was confined to Massachusetts,, New
Hampshire. Vermont and Rhode
Island.
I'ie methods of eradicating the dis
ease are slaughter of exposed and In

The cost toe the national govern
ment of Graduating the foot and
mouth disease In 1908 were approx.
mately $500. 900. An appropriation Of
this amount was made by Congress
TO cover the expenditure.
AS to origin, 1t Is thought that out
br eaks previous to the present one
were caused by infected vaccine virus
obtained from animals that were suf-
fering from disease. This, however,
was strly founded upon circumstantial
evidence.

asked to join.
This was decided upon yesterday at

of the Chamber. Now that the gov
eminent has acquired the necessary
land, IT is taken for granted that a
great fort will be reared on the site
but the question of paramount impor-
lance is to get construction started

The plan suggested is for the sec

Cape Henry and Cape Charles are the

Is the national capitol, and 1t Is ex-

asked 10 represent that city.
Representatives Of these cities win
be requested to meet in Norfolk as soon
as possible and devise ways and means
of foreibly presenting the matter to
Congress early in the session. Each
city will be asked to send at least two
