LOYALTY IN WAR TIME.

Loyalty in peace times and Loyalty in times are
two distinct things Not much is required pass the
loyalty test when ones country IS war a simple
compliance with the law is all that is required

Like the influenza epidemics in the
shuman family, epizootics of equine in
fluenza are difficult to control. The
true primary cause of the disease has
not been established though it is gen
orally believed to be due to a specific
germ, too small to be detected under
the highest power miscroscope. 1t
certainly has the characteristic of eX
treme diffusibility, leading to spread
of disease over a large area of the
country in a few days, the outbreak
running it's course despite all efforts
to prevent it, and the infection grad
ually subsiding without assignable
cause
The symptoms are those of fever in
some cases, preceded by a chill. There
is great prostration and depression of
muscular force; the visible mucous
membranes, especially those OF the
eye, become a deep saffron, ocher, or
violent red color, from Whlch tact
the term "pinkeye" has been given
the disease. There is a great diminu-
tion or. total loss of appetite and a
rapid loss of flesh, which frequently
reaches 80 to IS pounds for each "a
hours. In uncomplicated cases, the
fever abates after to 10 days. and
there is a general restoration to
health. The death rate is relatively
low during the epidemic of 1872 vary
ing from to per cent?, the higher
rate occurring among city horses. The
complications are many and some
of the intestines and lungs. Pneu-

HORSE GLU ANOTHER KIND;
HOW TO TREAT The DISEASE
Equine Ailment Resembles Human Al
Fiction In Several Important Par
ticulars - Now Under Good
Control, But Federal Au-
thOrities Advise Pre-
caution to Pre-
vent Outbreak.

Although the serious epidemic of in
fiuenza now affecting the human fam
lily has no relation to the disease of
the same name which affects horses,
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture point out a
resemblance of symptoms and course
of the disease in each instance.
According to the department, infiu-
enza among horses at the present time
is under better control in all sections
of the country than ever before. This
results almost entirely from the work
of the Federal authorities in combat
ing the pest
Equine influenza is a common dis
ease in the large cities of the country,
affecting horses which pass through
infected stables of dealers. Only,
however, under certain influences not
understood and when large numbers
of horses in commercial channels are
exposed to contagion, does it assume
an enzootic or epizootic form. Unlike
certain other infectious diseases, one
attack of influenza does not grant a
lasting immunity. However, previous

has been recognized in various out
breaks for several hundred years past.
Even before the Christian Era, a Sc
we're epizootic believed to be influenza,
is recorded as having occurred in Sic
lily, and again in A. d. 1901 it spread
over a considerable period of Italy,
causing great loss among the war
horses of Rome. In 164S the disease
affected Germany and spread to other
parts of Europe, and in I'LL it follow
ed the tracks of the great armies all
over Europe, causing immense losses
among the horses. Other extensive
outbreaks obtained at intervals from
1913 to 1883, one of which was that of
1903, in connection with the Fran
co-Prussian War. The first recorded
appearance of equine influenza in
North America was in 1866. Probably
the most severe outbreak, however,
was that of 1S7O-72, when it spread
over the entire country from Canada,
south to Ohio, and then eastward to
the Atlantic coast and westward to
California, although the severity of
the outbreak of 10000 should not
be overlooked. In these epizootics,
being prior to introduction of the mo-
tor truck in city commerce, business
in the great commercial centers of the
country was seriously inconvenienced,

Washington, November October
weather conditions resulted in an in

country's crop of corn. The Depart

report today placed the preliminary
estimate of production at 2,749198,O0O

size than last years, it's food value is
materially greater because the quality
this year is more than 10 points
higher.
With a wheat crop of about 919,000,-

A summary of the report by the

about 30,000000 bushels, with a quail

the Southwest and the far West are
not up to expectations. While the alb
solute number of bushels is only 81
per cent. that of last year, the food
value, because of the higher quality,
is much larger proportion. The alb
solute production is only fraction of

Sweet potato production exceeds

Tobacco, with large acreage, has
a yield per acre materially above av-

furnished the largest previous crop of
record.
