$50 contagious is the disease hat
in past outbreaks where but mi an
imal in a herd was infected the en-
tire herd in almost all 8 later
contracted the sickness. While the
mortality is not high, the effects of.
the disease ven on animals that re-
cover are such IS to make them
practically useless. They lose flesh
rapidly; in the case Of COWS, the
milk dries up or is made dangerous
for human consumption; in the case
of breeding animals, the animal
once infected becomes valueless for
breeding, as it may continue to be
a constant carrier Of epntagson.
"As a result of the five outbreaks
in this country and Other dssas.rolsi
epidemics of tho disease IN Eugope
and Great Britain, Veterinary author
tiles of the United States are agreed
that the only method of combating
the disease is to. stop all movement
of stock and material which has been
subjected to any danger Of infection
and to kill off without delay all herds
in which the disease has gained any
foothold. This enables the author
tiles to eradicate affected lords and
to isolate and hold under obserya-
ton all suspected herds.
1.-THE owner Of the slaughtered an
finals is reimbursed on basis of the
appraised value of the herd. the APP
praiser being appointed by the state.
The expense, of the whole process of
condemnation and disinfection is di-
vided equally between the federal
and state governments.
until the venture premises have
been thoroughly disinfected and all
danger of spreading the disease re
moved, the farm Is quarantined by
the local, authorities in the same way
in which it would be for a. contag-
ious human disease. This local quar-
antine prevents the visit of individ.
uals or the transfer of any produce
i or animals from the farm to other
farms. In some cases, because hu-
man beings can carry the disease t.
other herds, the state authorize.
have prevented children on.infectet
farms from attending school. IL
: other cases, as in Illinois and Ohio
! the state authorities have closed The
stock yards until they a be CLEANED
and disinfected.

thorities this week, set sail last night
for their respective homes, three go

over with. Their parents responded
promptly when communicated with by
the tir2dy county officials. and wired
the youthful wanderers tickets.
That there was a fifth member Of
the party that was not captured was
confided yesterday by the boys They
said a brother OF the Christensen boy
was with them, but made his getaway

TOMS THEORY Is
MOST PLAUSIBLE

Some OF the court house diplomats
brand it as malicious fabrication
that should be characterized by D.
shorter and uglier' word, while others
are inclined to deal charitalbly with
the perpetrator of the latest court
house scandal and yet some contend
that it was an accident.
The story is told by Jim Dillon. dep
uty U. S. marshal, and as it concerns
himself and his prowess with six
shooter, those who know him are in
clined to give it plenty Of space. Mes
srs. Dillon and Thompson were in the
Pocasset neighborhood yesterday on
official business. While crossing a
creek a squirrel was sighted and Dillon
gave chase He 'treed" as readily as
the best houn' dawgY in the country
and gave a very successful imitation
of barking up the tree The squir-
rel leaped from the tree, crossed tho
creek and started NJ the bank on the
opposite side. When the squirrel was
about so yards away Dillon whipped
out his trusty automatic and brought
him down at the first shot.
S. L. Newman does not quibble with
the matter moment He says it's all
"dern lie" John G. Lewis is OF the
opinion that II may be true but that it
was certainly an accident. while Uncle
Tom Burke is of the belief that the
squirrel stumbled and fell and ran a
stick through its body. J. A. Thomp-
son. who was with Dillon at the time,
will not commit himself

SLAB LETTERED
BY SURVEYOR
OF EARLY DAYS


A relic from the real pioneer days
in Oklahoma was brought in yesterday
by j. A. Thompson while on trip in
the vicinity of Verden. 1t was found
near Blanchard and is a slab from a
an oak tree bearing the letters and
figures: ~ N raw s i. There is
another figure hair split out and is a
9 or 5, making that last figure read
either 10 or Is.
The numerals ana figures mark the
work Of surveyor years ago. prob
ably when the Indian Territory was
first surveyed. Translated the line
reads, Township Z, north. range 4
west, section ~ (or 15.) 1t was the
custom OF surveyors to blaze tree
and with chisel cut letters giving the
description Of the lanl, in the wood.
This slab is fully an inch and a
half thick and the letters thereon are
raised or embossed, ana backward.
This shows tnat IN the growth cf the
tree, the bark and wood completely
grew over the blazed part and in the
healing process grew into and filled
the cut-out letters. When another party
of surveyors came along surveying a
particular piece Of land they locate the
line and when one of the blazed trees
is found, they chop into the tree above
and below the scar left by the blazing,
split out the slab and read the mum
bers. On the tree the numbers are
regular ane cut into the body Of the
tree while on the slab they are back
