 "The boss is certainly taking a chance" commented the salesman. Doesn't he know that there is new law against the use of roller towels?'
 "Oh, yes, he knows it all right, was the quick rejoinder of. the native, "but that towel was put up there be- fore the law went into effect. .-Phlla- delphia Telegraph.

]. A. Baker, representing the
Wichita Union Stock Yards Co.,
and J. 0. Nelson, a cattle buyer
for the Union Live Stock Com
mission Co., of Wichita, were in
the city on business yesterday and
made a pleasant business and So
cial call at the Democrat office.
Both gentlemen state that the ar
ticle regarding the foot and mouth
disease which recently appeared
in one of the Great Bend papers,
was entirely wrong and miSlead-
ing and that the conditions are not
anywhere as bad as they were
made to appear in this article. Be-
ginning at midnight Wednesday
night the counties of Butler, Sedg-
wick, Sumner and COwley were
placed under quarantine, but
stock of all kinds can be shipped
to and from the Wichita yards,
providing they did not come from
these counties. The disease,
which was started from a ship
ment of dairy cattle brought to
Mulvane and Winfield from Wis
cOnSin, is confined in an area
about twelve miles square and this
district is under the most strict
patrol and the state veterinarians
state that they have the disease
well in hand and there is but lit
tie danger of its spreading to a
larger area. III animals in all
have been slaughtered in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Mulvane and
Winfield; and of these, Sc were in
one herd, and of these only one
animal was infected but the rest
had beeh exposed to- the disease.
