CATTLE Industry
LED IN THE March
OF CIVILIZATION
Prof. Dale Of Oklahoma
u. Recited Growth at d
Meeting of Historical
Association Today.

ST LOUIS. Woodward Everett
Dale, assistant professor of history
University of Oklahoma, today outlined
the history Of the cattle industry in
Oklahoma for the members of the
American historical association in an
nual meeting here.
He showed how II was n part Of n
larger movement-the westward march
Of civilization. A fringe of pastoral
has always been at the forefront Of
that march, he said.
After the civil war. when the plains
Of the southwest were filled with fat
cattle, which the north needed, Okla.
homa lay between the Texas breeding
ground and the northern markets. The
white settlement in this territory was
forbidden. the speaker said, and civil.
lzation swrled through the territory
Of the west. The cattle men and pion-
ecr farmers found their way into il

trol led to u struggle between the two
Then, with the opening Of the In.
dian reservation of Oklahoma. the
cattle industry vanished suddenly be
fore the advance of machinery.
The state which flourished in the
/ middle ages. after the feudal period
has not yet been equalled in practica

MANY CATTLE DIE.

Within a few days T. A. Nicholson lost fifty of the year ling steers being pastured on the George A. Tweedy alfalfa farm, eighteen miles southwest of Florence, says the Blade -Tri- bune. The disease that caused this heavy mortality is known as hemorrhageic septicema, the &C., tion being a. thinning of the blood until it is almost water, and the animal dies within a very few days after being afflicted. Seven animals died last Tuesday. On that day State Veterinarian Hait was called into consultation and the remaining 1450 steers were vaccinated. Since administering the serum no. deaths have been reported. This is a serious loss to MT. Nicholson coming on top of range troubles, but it is thought that the disease has been entirely controlled.

RUMOR IS DENIED BY SENATOR

Douglas, Jufy.-The rumor prevalent in Douglas that Camp Harry J. Jones will be abandon ed by October 1, which was given impetus with the recent publication of an Associated Press dispatch announcing that border camps will be disposed of because of the big cut in the army appropriation, is ground less, Senator Ralph H. Cameron stated in a telegram to the Dis patch yesterday. Senator Came ron's telegram was in answer to one sent by the managing editor of the Dispatch Wednesday morning. Senator Cameron was told in this telegram that there was report current in Douglas to the effect that Camp Jones was to be abandoned. He was asked for definite information.
