Foot and Mouth Disease
Discussed by Experts


NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. 26.-The
State Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton today issued a circular dealing
with the foot and mouth disease.
In it 1t is shown that the disease
may disappear in cold weather, but
it appears again in warm weather.
Tho circular also states that milk
of lime, 1 per cent; carbolic acid
mixture, per cent; formalin, 3 per
cent: soda, and 1 per cent. hydro
chloric acid will destroy germs in one
hour. The heat of fresh manure will
destroy the germs If at depth OF
about eight inches.
Human beings are susceptible to
the foot and mouth disease, milk
from affected COWS and whey, cheese
and butter made from such milk
being usually the transmitting agent,
according to the circular. Persons
handling cattle may contract the dis
ease, but this is rare.

America as Religious Teacher

Dr. Stanton Colt. the author Ct
THE Soul Of America" Is at present
IN this country on a lecture tour
for though he is an American by
birth he has resided for a number
Of years in England. In one of his
recent addresses DR.. Colt empha-
sized the thought that underlies his
book, declaring that America is in
reality a church to which all citi-
zens belong whether they realize il
or not. and that this country has
reached the point when It is ready
to give to the rest Of the world a SUI
preme spiritual and religious mes
sage In which the moral ideal Of
what society ought to be is the key
note America" he said. with her
ideals Of freedom. brotherhood and
liberty is the great church II
Americans. II Is the molding and
shaping power Of America far moro
than any sect or creed that gave
form to our national character"

Edge May Be a Candidate
for the y. S. SenatOrship

ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. 26.-The be-
lief is growing among his friends here
that Senator Edge, president-elect OF
the higher legislative branch for the
coming session, will be q candidate
In the Statewide primaries for United
State senator in 1916.
In that event, Senator Edge prob
ably will be brought into aggressive
rivalry with former Governor Stokes
with whom he has been for years
upon terms of closest friendship. A
successful administration Of the presi-
dency of the Senate during the i'm
pending session will determine in all
probability whether Senator Edge is
to enter the senatorial race or stand
for governor.
