Begin vaccination not later tan the mid
ole OF February or the first of March.
whdt stock should be vdcc;nated?
Oa''ie, horses and mules, although small
Ter animals should be kept from sources
OF infection.
Ho~ shdH the RACINE be injected?
DOH the syringe for ten minutes; after
washing the point of inoculation with a
per cent solution Of csrboiic acid, inject
one cubic centimeter or 10 drops (direc-
lions usually accompany the package) of
the vaccine under the skin.
In cattle the injections are best made
Just behind the. shoulder; we usually make
Tie iirst injection on one side, the second
upon the opposite side. In order to pre-
vent collar.pressure upon. the.point OF in
oculatlon horses and mules should be in
oculated under.the skin on the side of the
neck.
vaccine No. 2 should be given ten days
after No. and in the same manner.
DON'T. ON VACCINATION.
Don't give vaccine No. . unless No. |
has been given.
Don't open the packal) until you are
ready to vaccinate.
Don't use vaccine ii TIM cork has been
removed Tor any length ol'hme.
Don't waii unit. an outbreak o, char
oon before vacc.natng.
Don't use diriy.syvinge.
Alter vaccinating burn AL empty bot
Ties and boil the 81 ringe again.
How soon after vaccination is pro-
lection afforded! IL Is general, claimed
ti'at ABOUT thirty days ale required from
the hrst injection to give protection.
How Tong WiU this protection last?
From six months to one year is the usual
claim.
Can milk be used during the period
o. vaccination? We have never known
Of any ill effects.
Can horses and mules be used dur
ing vaccination? Yes.
Is it advisable to vaccinate t,oioe a
year? In the infected areas OF the state
some vaccinate in the early spring and
late fall with satisfactory results.
should vaccination be a1racticed
during an outbreak of Charlton? Yes,
II the animals are protected from infec-
ton during the time Zone month"; neces-
saryto bring about immunity. They should
be prevented from grazing on infected pas
lures or drinking at suspicious watering
places, and should he protected from
horse flies and other insect pests and
every other necessary precaution taken.
There is certain risk from vaccination
during an outbreak unless the above pre-
are adopted.
What measures may be necessary
10 clean a farm of Infection? In addl-
ton to the protection oil the animals and
general sanitary measures, it is consid-
cred necessary in order TO eradicate the
injection from the surface OF the ground
10 drain and cultivate injected lands.
Care should also be taken in the feed
ing Of crops grown on lands known to
be injected with Charlton, as outbreaks
have been recorded as occurring from the
use OF such feeding materials.
DO cdrrion feeders spread Charlton
Without doubt the carrion
feeders play an important part in the
and spread of Charlton in
Louisiana. The buzzard or carrion crow
is most important because it is capable
OF carrying infection in pastures where it
has never previously existed. The germs
are carried on the feet, beak, and in the
vomitus of the birds, bns not in The es-
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1915-03-26

The germs of Charlton may be found
in the excrement of the dog, hog, cat and
opossum for many days after eating flesh
from an anthrax carcass. A detailed re-
port on this subject is given in Louisiana
Bulletin 1876.
Neglect to properly dispose of anthrax
carcasses is, without doubt, the factor
most responsible for the continuance and
spread OF anthrax i'm Louisiana.

The flies are afforded better OPP

4. Hhe flies are afforded better OPP
portunity to fill themselves with the
germs.
5. The lives OF the collector. carrier
and bacteriologist are endangered.
Is the mill from a coO s'cs Jro"'
Charlton dangerous for human use!
Prominent investigators in diiiereh'
parts of the world have not found SUCH
milk to contain the germs OF Charlton ana
our own investigation seems to have YER
ified these conclusions. Although we do
not advise the use of milk from an AM
NAL showing signs of Charlton SICKNESS
during an outbreak.
can Charlton be cured? In the case
of a small swelling resulting from lnocn-
lation of the virus (germs) it is possible
by the injection of sufficiently strong
gcrmicidal solution (such as per cent
solution OF pure carbolic acid directly
through the skin into the swelling under
meath, to destroy the local infection at
that point. To prevent spreading OF the
swelling this should be done as early as
possible. There are other swellings which
NAV occur later and are from direct in
oculationlbut are ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
In such case the above suggested treat
ment would not be so effective. Besides,
MANY animals recover after showing those
secondary swellings.
During the latter part OF an outbreak
the disease is not so acute and many ami
mails recover in spite of, rather than, the
result of treatment. In such cases the
treatment is often enormously given credit
for the cure. All over the world the con-
troll and eradication by strict sanitary
measures is considered of much greater
importance than the treatment OF individ-
ual cases.
Should swellings be opened? No. The
shedding of blood by the opening of
swelings or through any other means is
one of the surest ways of spreading char
bon infection, as the blood or discharge
contains the germs.
If any should fall on the ground the
latter should be thoroughly disinfected.
Is raccindtiOn q sure preventive
measure? While a .positive answer can
not be given to this question, as there is
no preventive measure Of any kind that
is absolutely sure, it may be stated that
the vaccination against Charlton is the
best preventive measure known, provided
the material is perfectly reliable; that it
is used at the proper time and that the
necessary antiseptc precautions are adopt
ed i'm its administration.
During the past four years the writer
has vaccinated, annually, the live stock
on the Experiment Station farms, num-
bering about one hundred head, and, al
though infection Of Charlton has existed
on the pasture, during the above period
we have only lost one animal from the
disease. However, all the necessary pre-
cautions were adopted.

MINOT and VICINITY

A farmer from east of the city, who
drives an auto, complains because so
many people on the roads do not OBJ
serve the rules of the public highway.
Vehicles should be just as willing to
give half the road to an auto coming
behind as to one approaching from the
front, especially when it is impossible
to pass otherwise.
VIM. G. Walker from the south prai-
RE was in the city Friday and liquid
ated for his paper with good hard cash.
He told Of the subscribers to a paper
in Georgia years ago paying for their
paper in tobacco, at the rate of ten
cents pound, but inasmuch as tobac-
co is not good crop in North Dakota,
and turnips are not yet ripe, he came
across with the coin Of the realm.
w. A. Witter started large crew
of men and teams on Monday of this
week blowing the fire breaks for the
Great Northern railroad. Mr.. Witter
has the contract to plow the firebreaks
on either side of the track from Minot
to Williston, blowing six burrows on
each side. The teams are How on the
road to Williston. The distance be-
tween Minot and Williston is 12O miles

and strung out would make line 1440
miles long. It is thought the job will
be completed in about 80 days.-Ray
Pioneer.
1t occurs to US that farmers or land
owners should take enough interest in
the obnoxious weed question to cut the
weeds along the road adjoining their
farms if the road overseers do not. To
see clean piece of grain in field
with road encircling it covered with
yellow mustard, thistle and a grand
array of other foul weeds, makes one
think with no little consideration
Wouldn't it be the best thing to hitch
onto the mower and take a swath or
two along the road side before it is
too late? The law requires weeds to
be cut-but there need not be a law
for this purpose-everyone should be
interested enough to cut all foul weeds.
Get busy at once.

play billiards six years ago. AT that
time he WAS selling papers and put
ting in his spare hours at the billiard
table. He liked the game and 1t was
not long before he could play 1t.
Then he went to Chicago where he
soon became real sensation. There
he was taught the finer points OF the
game and developed into the most
phenomenal player of recent years.
He has shown sufficient skill with the
cue to give promise Of wrestling the
worlds honors from Hoppe. His
friends believe that he will succeed.
Not since Hoppe began to show
such mastery at billiards has any one
appeared who has shown slch Won
derful skill as this youthful wizard.
Cochran Is a youth of unusual in
teiligence. The pennies he made sell
