disease is. Those three veterinarians
disinfected themselves in my engine
room; washed off their rubber boots,
then walked out through the barnyard
where the sick were and got in the
auto and went away.
When they were killing the cattle
they inspected their mouths and feet
with their bare hands and said they
were nearly all over it and they were
in good shape. Then one of them ask
ed who would give him a chew of
tobacco. Mr.. J. West handed him
his, from which he took bite of it
and handed it back to Mr.. West. 1t
certainly must be very contagious,
this hoof and mouth disease.
When they left here on the 17th,
they said they would be back in two
or three days for to spray and clean
up. They have not come yet.
There was a fourth inspector here
on the 4th of December to inspect my
cows and fat hogs, and he said they
were all in the best of health, but
they might come down with it in a
week, for they should have been
killed when the rest was, and that
would stop the disease from break
ing out again.
The first inspector that was here
said if they were going to come down
with it they would be sick in a week
or ten days, and the second inspec-
tor stated from three to four weeks
they would be sick sure. Now they
have extended it to 40 days, I see
by the papers.
There were four different inspectors
here and each one told you a different
story.
The best way to my notion, is to
look after our own cattle and be very
careful so the disease will not spread,
and cut out these inspectors that are
going around the county. They tell,
boastfully, how they are spending mill
lions of dollars for to stamp out this
disease. It is the Veterinarian that
are getting the dollars. This is their
harvest. They have the farmers tied
down so they cannot sell or do any
thing for to help themselves.
Where was the Government In
spector when these cattle came
through Chicago? He could not have
been attending to his business, or we
would not have all this trouble now.

IF YOU MUST DRINK.

To the married man who cannot get
along without his drinks, the follow
ing is suggested as solution to the
bondage of his habit:
First-Start saloon in your own
house.
Second-Be the only customer. You
will have no license to pay. Give
your wife So to buy gallon of
whiskey, and remember there are SO
drinks in one gallon.
Third-Buy your drinks from no
one but your wife, and by the time
the first gallon is gone she will have
SO to put in the bank and So to start
business again.
Fourth-Should you live ten years
and continue to buy booze from her
and then die with snakes in your boots
she will have money to bury you
decently, educate your children, buy a
house and lot, marry decent man
and quit thinking about you.-Ex-
change.

Huron County Farmer Tells of His
Experience With HOOf and Mouth
Disease Inspectors Contributions,
Carelessness and Loss for The
Farmer.

At the request Of several of oul
subscribers we publish herewith &
letter from a Huron County Farmer
which appeared in The Huron Coun.
ty News of week before last. The
letter explains itself:
North Fairfield, Dec. IA, 1914.
To the Editor of the Huron County
News:
Dear Sir-As have read so much
about this hoof and mouth disease
| am going to give you some of my
experience as have had it right or
my farm one mile west and one-hal
mile north of North Fairfield on the
Ridge Road.
l bought thirteen steers from
Childs and Hoyt on Oct. 29th ane
just one week from the day
brought them home l notified Hoy
that the cattle l bought from hin
had the hoof and mouth disease.
On Nov. the 5th one of the State
Veterinarians and DR.. Fulstow Of
Norwalk came to inspect them anc
said that my cattle had the disease
very bad. They quarantined all Of
my stock, just where it happened te
be, and then went away.
I understood by what I had real
in the papers that they slaughtered
sick cattle at once. Not SO in my
case.
I wrote to DR.. Paul Fischer OF
the 11th of November and on the
18th there was another Veterinarian
came with DIR. Harry Fulstow anl
he inspected them all just the sam.
as the first one did, only adding thai
my hogs in the barnyard were alst
sick with the disease and that they
would have to kill everything-cows
hogs and all my poultry, for they
would carry the germs on their feet
but gave them Nto understand thai
they could only kill what was sicl
and nothing more.
On the 18th of Nov. two more of
ficers came with DR.. Harry Fulstov
and they appraised and killed my
13 steers and % hogs GO shoats ant
3 brood sows). They allowed me. fol
my three brood sows $39.85 and they
appraised my shoats at cents per lb
and allowed me $84.00 for the q
shoats. They just allowed me what
paid Hoyt for the steers. / am ou
my feed and I will be out the interes
on my money. That is the way the!
help the farmer.
They tell in the papers how the.
rope the cattle and lead them up tt
the trench and shoot them-toppl,
them in. They did not do that here
They told me to get some ropes ant
rope the cattle and lead them up tt
the trench so they could shoot them
l said, they could have ropes, bu
they would have to do the leading
themselves.
So we made pen and drove tn,
steers in it and then they let one ge
out over the fence and run all owe
the farm. ! shot it myself, to keep i
from going over on my neighbor'
farm.
Those men were not "Uncle Sans
sharpshooters, for the mems live
were in more danger than were tn
cattle.
The Veterinarians are supposed t
disinfect themselves on the roadsid
before they leave a place where tn

NEW JUDGES
Each County in Ohio Has One or More
Judges of Common Pleas Court.
Judge F. I'll. Wolf First Under The
New Law For Fulton County-New
Prosecuting Attorney.

To-day, January first, Judge C. E.
Scott ceases to be the Judge for the
Common Pleas Court of Fulton Coun-
ty and F. H. Wolf assumes the posi-
tion on the Bench" Charles Edwin
Scott of Bryan was duly qualified to
serve as Judge of the Common Pleas
Court In the third Judicial district
on July 1st, 1910; taking the place of
Judge John M. Killits who resigned
to accept the appointment to the bench
of the Federal Court for the Northern
district of Ohio. At the election of
1910 Mr.. Scott was elected to the
Common Pleas bench in this district
for term of six years and began this
term January 1st, 1911; he has two
years more to serve before the expira-
ton of this term and under the pro-
visions of the constitutional amend
ment of 1912, he will serve these two
years as Judge of the Common Pleas
court of Williams county. Judge Scott
has served Fulton county we'll and
faithfully and has demonstrated his
ability as jurist as well as the pos
session of the judicial mind which is
able to separate personal prejudices
and sentiments from performance of
duty and to treat all who come into
his court with impartial justice; he
has and he merits the good will of the
citizens of the county. There will
necessarily be the interchange of
work between Judge Scott and the
new Judge, F. H. Wolf, SO that there
will often be sessions of the Fulton
County Court when Judge will pre-
side in his former place while Judge
Wolf will perform like service for Mr..
Scott in Williams county.
Fred H. Wolf has been a member
of the Fulton County Bar for the past
ten years and has been busily engag-
ed in the practice of law during that
time. Previous to his admission to
the bar, Mr.. Wolf served for several
years as a court steongrapher in
Common Pleas Court, later he became
the stenographer for Attorney Gener-
al Sheets and from that position he
was promoted to the office of steno-
grapher for the State Supreme Court;
from this last position he came to
Wauseon.
Judge Wolf has his record as a
Judge to make; those who know him
best entertain no doubts as to his abili-
tv to make that record a good one and
that large number of the citizens OF
the county have confidence in him was
demonstrated by the returns at the
November election.
Closely associated with the new
Judge is the New Prosecuting Attorn.
ey, Charles T. Stahl who assumes
the duties of his office at the same
time as Mr.. Wolf. Attorney James
B. Templeton retires from this office
after having served two terms. Both
the retiring and the incoming prosecu-
tors have our best wishes and gooC
will; one has served us well and we
feel sure that the other will give
equally good service.
