WASHINGTON. Dec. 9.-Ninc mil

epidemic of foot and mouth disease
took from federal and state treasures,
occording to the anual report OF the
bureau Of animal husbandry made
public today. That however does not
represent the fun cost. IL Is declared
as owners were paid for their animals
on a meat value basis which did not
represent the value of thousands OF
animals slaughtered.
"'rhe sum. large as It is," says the
report. 'is trivial compared with the
colossal damage that would have been
inflicted If the disease had escaped
control and had become permanently
established In the United states as 1t
has In some other countries"
II seems unlikely. il is said. that the
source of infection ever will he dis

Undoubtedly it came from abroad,
but in some unknown way" the re-
port says.
The cattle tick was driven from
31.35s square miles of territory in
the south during the year, according
to the report.

What could be the greatest gift
that could be given you? Is it
something that could be meas
ured in dollars and cents?
Wouldn't you appreciate good
health above all? Suppose
that you had been suffering
for years with an old chronic
disease that was seemingly in
durable and which each year
came on you with increased
vigor. Some disease that you
have had treated by many
physicians and seemingly had
received no results. A person
soon becomes tir' i and dis
couraged with lif =. No wonder
that many people walk or drag
around each day acting and
sometimes thinking that this
is their last day on earth.

SPORT GLEANINGS

NEW YORK. Dec. 9.-The recent
visit OF the American track and field
team. to Scandinavia promises to he
but the forerunner Of other and more
important intersectional athletic con-
tests. As n result OF the competition
OF tho team In sweden. the sum Of
10000 crowns ($44.50O) has been
subscribed by the leading patrons OF
amateur sport in that country. for the
financing of return invasion OF
Swedish athletes to the United States
during the summer of 1917. with the
sum in hand II appears almost certain
that Coach Ernie Hiertborg will bring
II team of from ten to twenty of the
best Swedish track and field perform
crs to these shores next season, while
an all-Swcden football team Is likely
to be an additional attraction.
The American athletes brought back
from Sweden an imposing gold and sil-
Yer tankard inscribed to Simpson
Murray. Meredith. Ward and Loomis
and this has been turned over to the
Amateur Athletic union, which fl
nanced the trip Of the team to Scandt-
navia. Several suggestions have been
advanced regarding the final DISPOSE
tion OF this trophy. among them being
one TO the effect that 1t be offered as
perpetual prize for international II
athletics between teams representing
this country and those OF Scandinavia:
" Is possible that this proposal VIII
be carried out and the cup put up for
the 1917 games should the Swedish
team come to the United States.

Panama are booming that section as

December TO April. the major League

satisfactory location for rounding into

ball is exceedingly popular and the

No better Illustration OF the popu-
larity OF football need he cited than
the crowds and the amount of money
