BLACKLEG.

BLAChLEG.
Blackleg is a specific infectious
disease OF young cattle, caused by a
spore or seed-forming organism that
gains entrance to the tissues thru
small wounds in the skin. Cattle be-
tween the ages of six months and two
and one-half years are most suscept-
ible.
The main noticeable symptom is the
occurrence of large gaseous swell
ing beneath the skin of the hind
quarters, the shoulder, or the lower
portion of the neck. The swelling
crackles when the hand is passed over
it and if cut into, the muscle is dark
and yellowish bloody fluid escapes.
Associated with this symptom are
others common to bacterial infections,
viz: elevation of body temperature,
loss of appetite and rumination, dull
ness, and difficult breathing
The best method of handling is to
burn or bury deeply the carcasses of
dead animals, disinrect the spots where
they died, remove healty stock from
infected pastures, and vaccinate the
susceptible cattle. The vaccine, with
directions for using, can be secured
free of charge by writing to the Agri
cultural College, University of Idaho.

REPRIEVE.

idea thereof this mother of an infant
less than a month old has no business
in the penitentiary.
1.-The appearance of this mother shows
lack of worldly comforts, but her grief
at the separation from her infant and
other children, who are in the care of
relatives in Albion, is as heart rending
as though she were dressed in satin and
diamonds
Therefore, | propose to exercise the
prerogative given me under the con
stitutiOn and liberate this woman and
restore her to her children, and if no
means are furnished her to return to
them, I will be glad to pay her way
back to her little family.
"There have been much more flag
rant violations of law against the peace
and dignity of the state gone unpunish-
ed in this and other states than what
this woman is accused of, but in this
case like many others, without money
or friends, punishment is quickly
meted out.
81 will issue respite for her re-
lease until the next board of pardons
meets and doubtless the secretary of
state will coincide with my opinion on
une case. ne OUner MEMBER OF Une
pardon board, Attorney General Peter
son, is absent at present, but we will
be in position to act on her case at
some future meeting of the board of
pardons.
"T do not condone crime and believe
in punishment for crime and this case
is not a precedent. What | am doing is
in the cause of down trodden humanity,
soul who has been oppressed by en-
vironment and unfavorable opportum-
ties in this battle of life and whose
mother love is as great as that of her
more fortunate sisters.
Gas soon as arrangements can be
made she will be restored to her chill
dren, and whatever criticism comes
from this act I am glad to shoulder the
entire responsibility. Capital News.

The fact that the defendant made no

in the canyon last week during the
breakup than it had ever been before

they were pipe stems and did all kinds

Hockersmith ferry was torn loose when
the ice went out but the ice jammed
about a mile down stream and the boat
was blasted loose with dynamite and
worked into a small cove where it lay
safe until the jam broke. The boat was
taken back later and placed in com

GOVERNMENT FEEDS BIG GAME.

Parties having just returned from
Gardiner, Mont, and Mammoth Hot
Springs, Yellowstone National Park,
report witnessing one of the most won
derful sights conceivable. Tt is known
that Yellowstone National Park is the
greatest wild animal and game pre-
serve in the United States.
Owing to the unusual heavy snowfall
this winter, the animals have sought
the flats for forage where the snow is
not so heavy or too thickly crusted,
as in the canyns. Around Gardiner,
being a sheltered spot, thousands have
moved to that location, where they are
being fed under government direction.
By careful and quite accurate count
there are about 5000 elk between
Gardiner and Mammoth Hot Springs
and about 1000 on the Gardiner flats
at Gardiner, about 200 deer, 600 ante
lope and go mountain sheep. Many
game enthusiasts and others are going
TO Gardiner to witness this extremely
uncommon sight. The animals are very
tame, and many unusual photographs
and snapshots are being taken; moving
picture men are also TAKING advantage
of this rare opportunity, and some
worldfamed animal pictures will be the
result
Gardiner is the southern terminus of
the Northern Pacific's Yellowstone
Park Line from Livingston, Mont, and
is located at the Park boundary, five
miles from Mammoth Hot Springs and
Fort Yellowstone, the legislative cen
ter of the park.
