In Michigan, it has been definitely established that in the early days of the out break the infection was spread through skinned milk fed to hogs, and there is every reason to believe that the same thing occurred in a number of other localities. It is easy to pastur- ize the skinned milk and the extra expense is not sufficient to warrant the neglect of this pre- caution. Pasturization has been shown to be a complete safe guard against the spread of foot and-mouth disease through milk either to human beings or to animals.
 The question of infected gar bage is more difficult to handle, for by no means all of the meat in this country is subje ct to Fed eral inspection. In many sec tions meat animals are .slaught-

RAW SKINNED MILK
Many Hogs Stricken with Foot-and-mouth Disease Through Raw Product Re- turned from Creameries.

A feature of the present out break of foot-aud-mouth disease to which the Federal authorities attach much importance is the unprecedently large number of hogs which have been affected. Both actually and in proportion to the total number of animals stricken, this has been much larger than in any of the previ- ous outbreaks in this country. The chief reason. the authorities say, is the spread of the infec- tion through uncooked skinned milk and other creamery by-pro- ducts returned to the farms to be fed hogs. Infected garbage it is thought, is also to be held responsible for a portion of the loss.
 In the epidemic of 1902, in which 4,461 animals were lost, only 360 of the total were hogs. The loss in cattle amounted to nearly 87 per cent of the total, that in hogs to only 8 per cent, and in other animals to only 5 per cent. In the present cpl demic, however, the loss in hogs has been almost equal to that of cattle, each being within a frac- ton of AT per cent, Of 146, 138 animals lost since the outbreak of the disease in Michigan last fall, 6S,776 were cattle, 68, 275 hogs, and the remainder, 9,O87 sheep and goats. The epidemic of 1908 stands in this respect, as well as in time, midway between those of 1902 and 1914. In 1908, 56 per cent of the loss was in cattle, 37 per cent in hogs, and approximately 7 per cent in other animals.
 In the opinion of specialists these figures demonstrate the necessity for more rigid regula- tions in regard to the feeding of skinned milk, similar dairy pro-

cred locally. Cooking will de- stroy the foot-and-mouth germ so that this meat can be eaten without bad results, but the trimmings the skin, the fat,. and particularly the marrow
 which are thrown away, may be, at the same time highly infec-- tious.
 In Philadelphia the disease has recently appeared in several herds of garbage-fed hogs, and although it is not absolutely cer- tain that the contagion was con- veyed through this means, it seems possible that it was. The sterilization of garbage intended for hogs is, therefore, like the pasturization of skinned milk and similar products, very desir- able precaution. In fact, the Federal authorities do not hesi- tate to say that experience ina' this outbreak demonstrates the need of State Legislation on this subject. In the absence of legislation the far mer h'o wishes to be sure of his skinned milk should boil it after it's re- turn from the creamery.

London, April 1.-THE French Of
fensive in the district between the
Mouse and the Moselle has developed
into one of the most desperate bal-
ties of the war.
Official reports given out in Paris
on Friday declare that the important
position of Les Eparges, which domin-
ates the plain of Woevre, now is com
pletely in the hands of the allies.
Trenches here, it is reported, were
"choked with German dead"
In the forest of Montmare, it is
claimed, fifteen attacks of the Ger
mans In efforts to retake trenches cap
tured Thursday were repulsed. The
reports add that heaps of German
bodies lay upon the ground afterward,
while in Champagne the Germans
were moved down in similar often
sive movement.
The French claim also the capture
of 600 feet of ground in the forest of
ALLY.
The French are necessarily bonn
harding st. Mihiel, the point of the
wedge they are trying to force out,
and at the same time are attacking
the two sides of the wedge with in
fantry and artillery in an endeayor to
reach the roads which lead from st.
Mihiel to Metz. If the progress al
ready is as great as the French claim
it to be, these roads should now be
almost within reach of the French
guns.
Berlin denies the claims of success
made by the allies, however, and Off
cial statements say that all French
attacks were repulsed in this region,
with tremendous loss to the French.
The Germans report that the Belgians
have been driven out of Drei Grach-
ten, on the User canal, with heavy
losses.
