Action has been taken to con-
troll a localized outbreak of An
thrax in cattle in the Elmdale
Community of Richland county,
according to a joint release by
Dean Davidson, Richland County
Agent and G. G.. Halver, Depu-
ty State Veterinarian of Glen
dive. A small loss has occurred
from this disease in two herds
of cattle which were running on
the same pasture in the Charley
Creek drainage area. However,
a second premise was infected
when a very small herd includ-
ing a sickened animal was moved
from the infected pasture to an
other pasture.
The present outbreak is be-
lieved to stem from an outbreak
of anthrax in the Elmdale area
prior to 1920 with considerable
loss of cattle. Anthrax affects
all warm blooded animals includ-
ing nan and is caused by a
spore forming organism and the
spores have been known to exist
in the ground for over SO years
and remain visible.
Steps taken by the ranchers
with the help of the Montana
Sanitary Board to con-
troll the present outbreak, ac-
cording to DR.. Halver, are the
burning of the dead carcasses
and vaccination of all exposed
in the area. 1t is es-
timated that approximately 1900
cattle, 200 sheep and 20 horses
will be vaccinated at the pres
ent time in the Elmdale-W West
of-Charley Creek area. Veterin-
arians of the Montana Livestock
Sanitary Board are and will be

Visitors From
South America

The Jim Murphy family ar
rived Sunday, July 81 to spend
three weeks visiting at the homes
of their respective parents, the
j. w. Murphys of Sidney and
the Adolph Strands of Andes.
Mrs. Murphy was the former
Grethe Strand. The family came
from Medellin, Colombia, South
America, where Jim Is technical
director for a paint company.
AS this is the first time the
five children have been back to
the States for four years, it was
decided to make this q good va
cation. The children r Jim,
Paul, Kathy, Marie and Margaret.
Margaret, the youngest, was born
in Colombia two years ago. After
being away from the States, the
entire family is enjoying eating
ice cream, sweets and other foods
which are difficult to acquire in
Colombia.
Although the life is consider
ably different in Colombia, they
have adapted to it and enjoy liv-
ing there. They all speak Span
ish Of a sort, with the smallest
children feeling most at ease
using it. They yer unaffected
by the recent revolution in CO.
lombia and have hopes that con-
ditions will improve because of
it. People here are surprised to
see their five towheads come up
from the tropics, but actually
Medellin has a perfect climate
as it is 5000 feet above sea level.
The children go to an American
school where Grethe teaches and
the family has many social &C
tivities with the other American
families there.
They flew from Medellin to
Miami, Florida where they rent
ed a car to leisurely drive back
to Montana. In Miami they also
bought the necessary camping
equipment to camp in parks and
campgrounds along the way. In
this manner it took three weeks
to get to Sidney.
The children were thrilled to
camp in Florida, The Great
Smokey National Park, The Blue
Ridge Parkway, and The Shen-
andoah National Park. After that
they went to Washington, D. c.,
where they had the opportunity
Of seeing many government
buildings and historical monu-
From Washington they
followed the parkways and toll
roads to Chicago where they
spent two days shopping and
friends. They spent sew
sral days camping in the lake
of Wisconsin and then came
On to Sidney.
From Sidney Jim will go to {
New York on business and the ]
est Of the family will return '
