SERIOUS DISEASE OF HORSES
Reappearance of MaIady in West
Leads Experts to Urge Value OF
Protective Measures.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
An outbreak of what is commonly
called the kansas horse disease" has
taken place in western Kansas and
eastern Colorado within recent weeks,
causing the loss of several hundred
horses. With the temperance of this
malady, which veterinarians designate
as forage poisoning, or cerebrospinal
meningitis, representatives of the bu-
reau of animal industry and the Col
orado agricultural college began Wig
orous campaign, which it is believed
has effectively checked the epidemic.
The fact that in the outbreak of 1912
Kansas lost some 10000 horses indi-
Gates the serious possibilities of such
an occurrence and the value of speedy
protective measures such as the fed
eral and state experts have taken.
The cause of this disease is not
definitely known, but it is believed
to be due to eating some form OF
