udder inflammation, a centrifugal milk clarltier was used. By means of this apparatus the milk of all animals in the herd involved was examined and the sediment easily secured. The re- suits in the case of the two suspected animals alone furnished sufficient evi- dence, by contrast with the milk sedi- ment of the rest of the herd, to point conclusively to their udders as affect ed and the microscopic examinations showing the pus germs discharged by the infiamed udder into the milk com pleted the proof.
 Bacteriologic examination demon strated that cultures from the throats ot four patients contained steptococci lndentical with streptococci obtained from the milk slime from the two cows suffering from garget. As it is now generally held that streptococcus Is the cause of septic sore throat. the predominance in the infamed ud- ders of garget cows of organisms of that type has drawn attention to their possible significance, and has suggest ed the probable original source of the infection in man. We must not for get the possibility however, says The Journal of the American Medical As- sociation, that in addition to the pri- mary infection of milk, infection may be accidentally introduced into it thru its being handled by persons suffering from infection.

THE CAUSE OF EPIDEMIC SEP
 TIC SORE THROAT.

Three extensive outbreaks of septic sore throat in the past three years, in Boston Chicago and Baltimore, have directed attention to the disease. The facts in regard to these and sim liar epidemics have been reported from time to time in The Journal of the American Medical Association. The relationship of the disease to the milk-supply has for some time been either suspected or confirmed. There has been tendency in the investiga- tion of a number of epidemics, to con clude that the source of the infection is the inflamed udder of the dairy COW.
 The evidence for the foregoing theory of infection has hitherto been circumstantial rather than positive and direct. The outbreak of epide- mic septic sore throat at Cortland and Toner in the state of New York, during April of last year, gave an op- portunity to demonstrate the correct ness of the commonly held view. This outbreak cast suspicion on the milk supply from one dairy. Over 70 per cent of the cases in each community occurred among the patrons of a dairyman who was the only dealer selling milk in both places, and who furnished less than per cent of the total milk-supply. Adjacent towns had no cases, and, further, they re- ceived no milk from the suspected dairy. As a result of an inspection of the cattle belonging to this dairy, two cows showing physical signs of udder inflammation were isolated from the main herd and the use of their milk was forbidden. For the first time in the history of the investigation of individual cows for the existence of

FREE SEEDS.

The question of free seed distrlbu- |.;o, is eternally before us. There m two sides to it, On the one hand 1 is argued with much force that hs DeOple do not want it and do not 6ssd it. It is argued that the Federal herartment of Agriculture does not E,nt it and does not approve of 1t. submitting to Congress each year estimates of expenditures. it has p,c since recommended that the dis yhution of ordinary vegetable and ovar seeds be discontinued and the |onev used to defray the expense of ousgating and distributing new and bluable seed.
 It is certain that the post office de- ,rment does not want them, because much over-worked franking pri- lege is largely the cause of the de- kits, The government can not gain 1t for it requires an expenditure something like S300,000 per annum pay the cost of this seed distribu- n.

BlFOcAL LENSES.
They Had Their Origin In Ben Frank
Inns Double Glasses.


Everybody who uses bifocal glasses
probably wonders where the Idea orig
1nally came from. Bifocal glasses are
the kind that possess two separate
lenses cemented together so that by
looking in the upper part one can see
at great distance and by looking
through the lower half one can read.
Most authorities are inclined TO give
Benjamin Franklin credit for the In
vention. He was. so the story goes. an
inveterate reader and could not use his
reading glasses when looking any dis
lance away.
Finally the notion came to him that
he could combine his glasses. and he
thereupon had the lenses cut in half
and one-half OF each lens placed in the
rim of each spectacle rim The result
was that single pair of glasses was
sufficient. though present day oculists
state that the sharply drawn line must
have affected his eyes.
From this idea the oculists gradually
developed glass in which the lower
part was arranged for reading and the
upper part for long distance vision.

Not Very Enthusi-

of the country has met with some Sc.

600, but beyond that contribution small
progress is being made. A representa-
tive of the federal reserve board who
was sent to New England to ask the
banks in that section of the country to
join in raising the fund, returned yes
terday and reported that the New Eng
land feeling is that the loan fund will
tend to increase the price of cotton to
the spindles up there.
A considerable number of banks scat
tered throughout the country have
raised the point that the cotton fund
scheme may be in violation of the price
fixing section of the Clayton antitrust
bill recently passed by Congress. In
view of the fact that the fund is TO be
under government supervision, the re-
serve board does not take this objection
seriously. but it was said yesterday that
a good many banks evidently intend to
base their declination to contribute to it.
Inquiry develops that the bankers
throughout the Central West are by no
means enthusiastic about the loan fund.
As the situation stands to-day so 1t
was said, the banks in that section of
the country will do their part il the fed
aIal reserve board shall insist on raising
the fund, but they are not in sympathy
with the scheme. The bankers Of the
South have thus far been slow to come
forward with their part Of the loan fund

the department of agriculture announced
yesterday. Extension of the quarantine is
merely precautionary, it said. Emphatic
announcement that neither the price of
meat nor milk should go up at present
also was made.
'"rhe effect of the disease so far is
only flea bite to the live stock of the
country" it was stated So far depart
ment reports show that 6l6 head of
stock in Chicago and 1900 in Indiana
have been destroyed
IF the disease is stamped out soon
the price of meat will not be affected"
said the department, 'but if conditions
become chronic prices will suffer. Foot
and mouth disease is frightfully con-
tagious and the only way to stamp it
out is to kill the afflicted cattle"
The latest reported cases are in Cor
nell, Ia. and Coma, Miss.
The states quarantined are New York,
Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
Michigan, Illinois, Massachusetts, Wis
consin and Iowa. About $500 cattle
have been destroyed to date.

A huge trench has been dug by steam

and filled with lime. The cattle will be
lined up on the edge OF the trench, shot
and buried as fast as the crew of killers

A hundred cowboys employed in the

this as another precautionary measure

Even more uncertainty than ever was
felt over the packing house situation.
Although the state board of live stock
commissioners yesterday amended the

receiving camps of the packers, nothing
definite is known as to whether the
packers win close only long enough to
disnfect their plants and then resume
work by receiving cattle direct at the
doors without sending them through the
yards.
Under the terms of the latest order
the packing houses may receive cattle
for slaughter direct from the ears as

their plants to the satisfaction OF the
