January Is. brief announcement of
whose death was made in last weeks
SENTINEL, adds another pioneer resi-
dent to those who have been called
to the Great Beyond. Her death

decline beginning about last August.

California, came to Eureka County
over 90 years ago. She was married
here and her family were all born
and raised on Ruby Hill, where they
have always resided.
Mrs. Flavin was imbued with the
German thrift and industry and had
those domestic qualities that make a
good wife and mother. Her life was
spent in the performance of duties
in her home and for her family. in
which her passing will cause a va
cancy that cannot be replaced. She
was a good neighbor and a kind
friend, and besides her dear ones,
many others will mourn her death.
She is survived by three grown
sons, Edward, George and William
Flavin, a daughter, Miss Annie
Flavin. and little granddaughter,
Pearl Flavin.
The funeral was held from the
Catholic Church in Eureka on Mon
day afternoon at 2 O'Clock, Rev.

FREE VACCINE FOR BLAckLEG

Stockmen Grazing Cattle on Forest Re-
serves Are Supplied Free Of Cost
Persons who Craze cattle on the
National forests are daily making a
large number of requests of forest
officers for blackleg vaccine, which
is supplied free of cost to those who
have cattle grazing permits. The
vaccine is furnished by the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
For several years past the depart
ment has furnished free to cattle
men who are permittees on the for
est this blackleg vaccine. in order
that they may protect their herds
from the losses caused by the dis
ease. Before vaccination against
blackleg was introduced the annual
losses to the stockmen were very
heavy, in some cases running as high
as SO per cent of an owners calf
crop. The disease is confined prin-
cipally to animals between the ages
of 6 and Is months. comparatively
few being attacked after they r a
year and a half old. Calves vaccin-
ated before they are six months old
are not rendered immune for more
than a few months and must be re-
vaccinated, hence stockmen wait un-
til their calves are past that age be-
fore vaccinating. A better practice
is to vaccinate the calves at the age
of a to 6 months, again at mi year
of age. and still again one year later.
Vaccination, however. is not a
cure for animals already infected
with the disease, though it prevents
a healthy calf from becoming infect
ed. The disease appears to be most
prevalent during the Fall months,
but where vaccination is followed
regularly the annual losses from
blackleg have been practically elm
mated.
