WARNING ISSUED
Frederick County Farmers
Told Dead Grass Is a
Menace.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

WINCHESTER, Va, January a.
Frederick County farmers and others
owning horses are urged by DR..
H. c. Given, State veterinarian. to keen
all such animals in barns and stables
and not permit them to eat dead pas
ture grass. He was here to investigate
the death of about As horses in the last
week or two, resulting from forage pois-
oning, form of spinal meningitis.
The fact that snow has covered the
ground for two weeks and made it i'm
possible to turn horses into grass fields
saved many others from contracting the
disease. the State veterinarian said
He said there was no nutriment in the
dead grass anyway and horse owners
were warned against permitting their
animals to eat the grass, which has
become moldy.
Stories which had caused consider
able alarm here, to the effect that car
cases of dead horses had been fed to
hogs and the latter subsequently butch
cred and sold here, were investigated
and officially denied. DR.. E. w.
Miller, local meat inspector, said there
had been few additional horse deaths
in the county since so many had died
within a short time. DR.. Given said
the disease was not contagious and that
no cases had been reported this Winter
in Virginia outside of Frederick County

UPPER MARLBORO. Md, January
"a total Of 1000 deeds were recorded
in the court house here during 1890,
according to figures compiled in the
ONCE of the clerk of the Circuit Court
yesterday.
Mortgages and deeds of trust num-
bering 1915 were handled during the
year, while chattel mortgages and con-
tracts totaled 1851. Releases recorded
during the year numbered 1885.
The fact that the number Of re-

with most of the residents Of the county
able to meet their obligations.

continued heavy, 375 equity cases being

the court has kept abreast Of the liti-
