CAMPING PARTY RETURNS
FROM WEEKS OUTING

A party of thirteen Ardmore people
returned Friday night from a fishing
trip to Oil creek They returned
very tired, very tanned, but very
happy. The roads were almost i'm.
passable in places. after the recent
rains. In some instances all hands
were forced to walk across bad places
in order that the team might pull
the wagon through. No hardship was
occasioned, however, and the party,
as a rule. rather enjoyed the exper-
ience.
The crossing of the small streams
was a problem, but it was solved

1t is said that they didn't ride in the
wagon across some of these places.
because the team was heavily loaded
with the camp supplies.
They report a very pleasant time,
the weather being ideal, but next
time the members of this party start
fishing, they will investigate the
of the roads in advance.
The party included: Misses Matte
and Fannie Joiner, Bessie Simms,

LAWRECARD|NC
INSPECTION
Of DA|nIES
THAT WAS PASSED BY THE LAST
LEGlSLA TURE. ALL WHO OF.
FER MILK OR BUTTER FOR
SALE MUST HAVE INSPECTION.

The fifth Legislature passed what
was known as the Dairy Inspection
Law, which provides that any person
or persons engaged in the dairying
business or who sells any products
of dairy or dairies, are required 10
have their cows inspected for the tu-
berculine test. This law is made in
conformity with a like statute which
has been in force in our neighbOring
states, and has for its purpose the
guarding of the dairy herds and stock
in general from infection with tuber-
culosis and stopping the disease be-
fore it gets spread to any considerable
extent. The experience in northern
states has been that where this mat
ter had been delayed for too long, that
in numerous instances entire herds
had to be completely killed out owing
to the fact that upon inspection they
showed to be infected with tuberculo
sis, and it is hoped that by starting
this early, that troubles of this ma
ture can be avoided in this country, es-
pecially in view OF the fact that dairy
men in this section of the country are
accustomed to letting their dairy
herds range in the open to a much
greater extent than in section OF the
country farther north. And il is also
necessary to comply with this regula-
tion in order to meet the requirements
of neighboring states in regard to ship
ping cattle, as well as the dairy prod
ucts.
The law provides for a penalty up
on failure of any person to have his
COW or COWS inspected before selling
milk, butter or any products of the
dairy Any licensed veterinary has
to make the inspection, and |
his fees for making such inspection |
are not fixed by law, but are left to the |
parties having the work done, which
inspection is to be made annually.
The board of agriculture of this |
state where the bill originated, hope,
by this method, to have the cattle
men of this state, as we'll as the own
ers of dairy herds relieved from trou-
bles which they have previously had
n getting around quarantine regula-
ions when shipping from this state
nto other states, and it is thought
hat after the law is properly worked
,ut, it will have good effect on the
larry and live stock business.

RUSSIAN ARMIES ARE IN
DANGER OF ANNIHILATION
BY The TEUTONIC ALLIES

Tarnow, Galicia, May 11.-(By
Courier to Cracow and Via London,
May 13, p. M).-The struggle in
the region north of the Vistula river
and on the borders of Galicia, which
Well informed persons here expect and
hope will bring final decision in the
battle against the Russian armies, ap-
pears to be approaching conclusive
phase.
Terrific engagements were fought
to-day at positions % miles to the east
of Tarnow, in the vicinity of Debica
and Melee, where the Austrian army
under Archduke Francis Joseph came
into fierce conflict with Russian forces
which were retreating eastward from
the Dunajec river and Tarnow. Airmen
who flew over the battlefield to-day re-
ported that the entire front was marked
by burning villages, most of which had
been bombarded. They say it looks
exactly like gigantic prairie fire.
To the north of the Vistula river the
Austrian corps, commanded by Count
Kirchbach, has forced by Nida Line,
according to information reaching here.
To-day and yesterday the wind brought
with it as far as Tarnow the incessant
roar of gun fire indicating that Count
Kirehbach s forces are trying to ad-
vance hand in hand with the troops of
Archduke Joseph Ferdinand and Gen.
eral Won Maekensen.
Along the Carpathian front also the
Austrian armies have made forward
movement, bringing the Third Russian
army and the remainder of the Eighth
Russian army in imminent danger of
being surrounded and destroyed. The
first train since Tarnow was retaken
by the Teutonic allies arrived here
to-day.
