Disease Kills Many Ewes.

For the third consecutive sea-
son, an unusual condition again
is developing among sheep in the
State and causing the death OF
from six to eight percent of the
animals in different focks, ac-
cording to a report from the
Kentucky Agricultural Exper-
iment Station where studies are
being made to determine the ma
ture of the trouble and the best
methods of controlling it. Obser-
vations made indicate that the
condition occurs during Febru--
airy and March and is confined
to ewes in advanced pregnancy.
1t is said to be fatal to practical
ly 100 percent of the animals
that become sick.
Early SYMPTOMS of the disease
are sluggishness and a tendency
to lie down. Infected animals
get up with difficulty, walk with
a staggering gait and often with
the head held to one side. AS
the disease advances, muscular
twitching may set in and the am
imal stands with its head press
ed against some object. Animals
shwing SYMPTOMS of the disease
grit their teeth, gradually lose
their appetite, become blind and
breath laboriously. The tempera--
ture remains normal. Before
death, the animals become pros
trate and move their feet while
lying on their sides.
While a number of investiga-
tions have been made on the,
disease, veterarians at the sta
tions have been unable to find
infectious organisms connected
with it, attempts to transmit the
disease to other sheep have been
unsuccessful and no growth has
been recorded on culture media
innoculated from the blood and
tissues of sick animals. In sew
eral cases, sick sheep were given,
an injunction of Botulinus anti
toxin in an effort 20 determine
the relation of the disease to fors
age poisoning but in no case has
the animal been benefited by the
injection.
Preventative measures being
recommended by the station vet,
erinarians suggest that pregant
ewes be given good care with as
much variety of feed stuff as
possible and that lsxatives,
such as salts or oil, be used free
ly. Exercise for the animals also
is recommended.

ARMY AND NAVY
PAY BILL PASSES
ALICE ROBERTSON WINS HER
FIGHT FOR MORE SUBSIS-
TENCE MONEY FOR
NURSES.

Washington, ID. c., May 15-The
Mckenzie bill, readjusting the pay
and allowance of the commissioned
and enlisted personnel of the army.
navy, marine corps, coast guard and
geodetic survey and public health
service, was passed tonight BY the
house, PIG to 23.
TIE bill will go Immediately to the
senate.
The house defeated, 221 to 40, a
motion by Representative Connally,
democrat, Texas, TO recommit the
bill to the committee which framed
it, with instructions to eliminate the
section authorizing money allowance
for subsistence to be determined by
the president for each year, in ac-
cordance with a certificate by the
etary of labor showing the com
parative retail cost of food in the
United States for the previous year,
as compared with prices in 1922.
Representative Alice Robertson,
republican, of Oklahoma, won her
fight for higher subsistence and
more room rent money for army and
navy nurses. Her amendment in
creased the subsistence rate from 60
cents to $1.20 day. and rent money
from $40 to $50 a month.
Under an amendment by Repre-
sentative Bland. republican, of In
diana, adopted by the house, form
er national guardsmen taken into
the army will be given the benefit OF
SO per cent Of their guard service in
determining their pay rating.
Chairman Mckenzie, of the COM
mittee in charge of the bill, declared
that it represented six months of toll
and that in the years to come IL
would "save millions of dollars" and
would bring satisfaction to all ranks
in the various services.

today sent a reply to the latest Rus
sian note proposing that the Genoa
parley adjourn until June when del
egations from the Allies and Russia
will meet at The Hague. The United
States has been formally invited to
join in The Hague conference. Rus
sia was informed that the suggestion
that the United States be invited
came from France. The idea seemed
to be that the Russian negotiations
here had broken down because Rus
sia wanted credits and the Allies
could not supply them in sufficient
quantities. The United States is to
be invited in order that she may sup
ply the credits.

E-KA|SER IS
NOW RELIGIOUS
SPENDS GREATER PART Or THE
DAY READING BIBLE.

Amsterdam, May Is - Former
Emperor Williams devotion to re-
ligion has progressed to the point of
mania. Admiral Won Tripitz, form
er minister of the German navy, is
reported to have told a friend re-
Gently.
The German ex-kaiser is described
as spending the greater part of each
day in reading the scriptures, com
mentaries, sermons and other re-
ligious books and in prayer. His
physical health appears to be good
but the members of his encourage at
Doom regard his mental state with
some anxiety. Ii is explained that
his interest in European affairs has
greatly diminished, even politics
find him somewhat uninterested.
His mind appears to live rather in
the past than in the present, and he
is disposed, whenever he does con-
verse on politics and some one
speaks of the injustice Of the world,
TO allude with a certain melancholy
and indifference to what he terms
the false accusations of his having
"willed the war;"
During his reign as emperor of the
German empire, William was prim-
ate of the Lutheran state church of
Prussia and as such he always stud
led theology and cultivated expert
ness in defense of Lutheran doctrines
and their application. His mind was
often divided, in those days, be-
tween the study of military and re-
ligious questions, but now he is said
to be enthralled in religious ques-
tions alone to the exclusion of all
problems of state craft. His mental
outlook seems to have been narrow
ed and his rare visitors find his
mind shut in and closed to present
German affairs.

He could not longer delay the

Locate Exact Spot
of Verendrae Plate

FIT. Pierre, May 15.-Following a
controversy relative to the exact
spot upon which the famous veren-
drae plate was discovered, G. e.
Sumner has taken the trouble to in
vestigate and measure the ground
and discovered the plate was found
on lot 20, block 26 of the city of FIT.
Pierre. Hundreds of residents daily
pass by the spot where the valuable
lead plate was found.
The plate was found a few years
ago by school boy and donated to
the state museum at Pierre, where it
now is. 1t was buried by one of the
early French explorers up the Mis-
souri, river and contained dates and
inscriptions concerning the expedi-
tion.
