Will INVESTIGATE
ANIMAL DISEASES
,,,..hington Experiment Station Re-
ives Appropriation From Rookie
sa,Ier Institute for Cooper
aCiye Work

rvtansiye Investigations will be
nried on by State College expert
citation experts in an effort to
,avo,on a remedy for the strange
s,.oase which is affecting cattle,
norses and hogs in the region be-
-, the Columbia river and the
cascade mountains. This work is
raode possible through an appropria-
zion by the Rockefeller institute of
,.odical research in animal diseases,
rbich maintains it's laboratories in
Nav Jersey. DR.. Ira d. Cardiff,
a,roctor of the state experim ent sya
.ion took the matter up with DR..
Theobald Smith, head of the Rookie
,ollar institute and formerly connecL-
"a with The Harvard medical schol,
on his recent TIP through the east,
ond Saturday received word from DR..
Smith that the institute will coop
crate with the experiment station
and that $1,000 is Immediately avail
able for the use of the station eX-
merits in investigating animal dis
eases. Additional sums will be APP
propriated by the institute as occa-
sion demands, which will place the
station here in a position to inyestl-
gate animal diseases as they appear
in different parts of the state.
The Washington experiment sta
ton is the first to receive recogni-
ton in the matter of appropriations
for cooperative work, and the dis
ease which has gained a stronghold
in the region between the Columbia
river and the Cascade mountains will
be given immediate attention. The
disease is a strange one, and ali eff
forts to classify it or effect a per-
manent remedy have failed. Cattle,
horses and hogs are Affected, being
born hairless, with enlarged necks,
malformations in the bony tissues,
and many stillborns. Already a pre-
liminary investigation has been con
Quoted at the station, but additional
experts will at orce be put on the
case. AS soon as the fal rowing sea-
son commences members of the sta
ton staff will be sent INFO the at
fected region to make a close study
CT the disease, which is considered
very serious. The disease resem-
bles goitre in human beings, and for
the lack of scientific name has
teen called goitre by many people.

CALF SCOURS

The chief causes of calf scours
may be summed up as follows:
!. Over feeding. This is prob
ably the most common cause. Feed
regular amounts and make all
changes gradually
z. Cold milk. The milk should
De fed at approximately 100 degrees
Fahrenheit. This is particularly i'm
portant the first few weeks.
3. Sour milk. This seems to be
particularly injurious when fed only
occasionally. If it is not possible to
nave the milk sweet at all times, it
Is SAFER to have it sour at all times.
I. Dirty pals. These are obiec-
'lonaole at all times, but particularly
so II allowed to become soiled in a
stali Where case of scours has occ-
CURED. All pals should be re-
moved from the stall and rinsed, or
oetter' scalded after each feed.
o. Dirty stalls. The calf stalls
should be kept clean and dry, and
especially after a case of scours,
should be thoroughly cleaned ana
disinfected.
o. Feeding grain in the milk. 1t
Is much better to feed the grain dry
alter the calf has eaten it's milk.
IN cases of scours the following
VIII be found helpful:
Reduce feed one-half. q

part lormalin to three parts water.

has snow above his ears, and age
has chilled his veins, he looks
back on the vanished years. his
spirit racked with pains. How
ever we'll he may have done, it
all seems tri1ing then; alas, if he
could only run his little course
again! He would not then SO
greatly prize the sordid silver
plunk; for when man COWS old
and wise, he knows that coin is
junk. One kindly action of the
past, if such you can recall, will
soothe you greatly at the last
when memory is all. If you have
helped some pilgrim climb from
darkness and despair, that action,
in your twilight time, will ease
your weight of care. The tri-
umphs OF Your business day, by
stealth Or sharpness gained, will
seem. when YOU are tired and
gray. to leave Your record stained.
All. comrade, in the dusk of life,
when you have ceased your grind,
when all your strategy and strife
are left for ave behind, when you

to recall the good that YOU have

sociation on the question of straighten-
ing out the overlapping boundary lines

We had no dogs with us on our hunt,
and were therefore not within the in
tent or letter of this resolution of the
supervisors. But even if we had been,
and even if the board of supervisors
had the power to pass the resolution,
which it is clear to my mind it did not
have, no penalty was prescribed for its
non-observance. 1t is therefore clear
that neither Mr.. Bryan nor I violated
any law or incurred any penalty other
than an undue publicity given a luck

of the law" on the part of a notoriety-
seeking game warden (who is not the
clerk of the court here, as stated). but

SAYS BRYAN HAD RIGHT
TO HUNT IN VIRGINIA
Correspondent Asserts Secretary of
State Violated No Law During
Recent Visit.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
In a recent issue of The Star I no
ticed an article on Secretary Bryan's
recent rabbit hunt in Virginia and am
surprised at Mr.. Cockrell's display of
ignorance on the Virginia game laws,
while processing to be state game
warden whose duty should be first 10
make himself familiar with his duties;
and for his and the public's informa-
tfon I will quote the statute to which
he refers.
The second section of virginia's game
laws reads as follows:
1T shall be unlawful to kill or have
in possession any wild turkey, pheas-
ant. grouse. quail. partridge or wood
cock east of the Blue Ridge mountains
between February LIST and November
1st, or to hunt any of them in the snow
or to buy or sell any robin. grouse.
pheasant. quail or partridge or wood
cock, or kill or have in possession any
wild deer between December 1st and
September 1st or to hunt them in the
snow"
The above are all of the laws that
refer to hunting in the snow, and as
rabbits are not mentioned in them, it
shows plainly that Secretary Bryan
violated no Virginia statute for the
protection of rabbits in his recent out
says he violated a provision enacted
by the board of supervisors of Fair
fax county, hence we will see if this
is true.
Powers of the Board.
This board of supervisors are statu-
tory officers, and have no powers eX-
cept those conferred on them by the
general assembly of Virginia, and any
of their acts in conflict with the acts of
the general assembly of this state are
nugatory and of no effect The gen.
eral assembly of Virginia enacted a
law which says:
1T shall be unlawful for any one not
a resident of this state to kill wild
water fowl. wild turkeys, pheasant.
grouse, woodcock, partridge, quail or
have first secured a hunting license.
Provided, however. that the non-resi-
dent child of resident owner of land
in this state shall be allowed to hunt
on the land of his parent as though he
were a resident of this state. and the
nonresident guest of a resident land
owner shall be allowed to hunt on the
lands of his host, as though he We're a
resident of this state, when accompa-
MED, MED BY said. said host or . member of his
Given Right to Hunt.
AS the above clause gives Secretary
Bryan, who was a guest of Mr.. Bar
bour. the right to hunt on Mr.. Bar
bour's land, the beard of supervisors
acts would be nugatory and could not
be enforced in our courts; and it seems
to 4 casual observer Mr.. Cockrel needs
to post himself as to what are his du-
ties; and the only law which has been
violated is the one violated by Mr.
Cockrell, as he tells US he is county
clerk for Fairfax county and also dis
trict game warden, while we have a
hold two district Offices, and that the
holding of one district office shall be
bar to the qualification to another,
which Is a wise provision
