BANQUET SPEAKERS URGE CO-OPERATION (Continued rrom Page 1.) Frank S, Lycan, was one of the n‘Tost successful ever held in Bemidji. Throughout the four courses of the dinner entertainment was furnished by Miss Mabel Hyland and Miss Margaret Newton, soloists and Miss Vera Backus, elocutionist. Miss Erwin and Miss Johnson were “the accompanfests. ' All of the young women are real artists-and their mumbers were much appreciated by those present. Affairs of the samé kind are to be held often in the future, according to Mr. Barker, and everything pos- sible will be done to give permanent life to the interest originated last evening. To Harry Koors, chairman of the committee of arrangements for the banquet and smoker belongs credit for the success of the evening. Mr. Koors has worked energetically since assigned to the management of the affair, and is responsible to a large extent for the attendance.

There should be some flexibility, of course. A man who might be thoroughly posted on supplles in general might also know very little about buying scientific apparatus, for instance. It calls for .common sense, just like every- thing else. But the experience of the large. industrial corporations of the modern cities that have tried it and of states that have experimented with it, all point to one conclusion. The gist of opinon seems to be that this matter can best be conducted in ‘conectiqn with the financial depart- ment. It might, of course, be given to the board of control but in the na ture of things there is no reason why the body that conducts a boarding house for ten thousand sick and ail- ing people, at the same time, buy pens for the people in the state- house and feather dusters and so on for the janiters. One thing is certain, this matter is @ great deal better handled than it was when Bob Dunn pointed out a| deficit of $20,000 a year and no lim- it to the amount of debt that might be incurred, and an interest bill of seven per cent; and the present busi- ness methods, although open to seri- ous criticism, are a vast improve- ment over these with which the state seemed contented twenty years ago. ’ .

DOURINE IS A HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS DISEASE Brought to Minnesota by Horses From Other States, WARNING TO STOCK BREEDERS W. L. BOYD, Assistant Veterinarian, University Farm, St. Paul. It is very probable that range mares from a large dourine infected district in Montana have been shipped intq Minnesota and other states. One ship- ment was reported by federal authori- tles to our state live stock sanitary board, and the affected animals were destroyed. It is possible that other mares, showing no symptoms of the disease at the time, have also been brought in, and ownefs of breeding stock should be on their guard. All suspected cases should be immediately reported to the state live stock sani- tary board at St. Paul, which will co- " | operate in controlling the disease. Dourine is a slow going disease of breeding horses which is highly Lon- tagious and often results in death after months of sutfering. It is caused by a microscopic animal which is transmitted from the stallion to the mare, or from the mare to the stallion " |only during service. Stock breeders cannot afford to take chances. Owners of stallions should ,not allow them to serve range mares , that have not been in Minnesota more |than one year, and owners of mares should not patronize stallions that have come from North Dakota, South Dakota or Montana within three years, or any stallion whose breeding history is not well known, There are three distinct stages in a typical case of dourine. R FIRST STAGE. In the primary stage, the first symptom noticed after | breeding is a thick, sticky, odorless and colorless discharge from the. sex- lual organs of either the male or fe- male, These organs may also be swollen, but the swelling. may easily be overlooked by the owner, unless he be a very close observer. Sexual desire on the part of the stallion may be .increased or decreased. Mares urinate at short interyals and present symptoms that are characteristic of the heat period. The -temperature may be elevated, aithough this is not always the case. Doughy swellings may be present in the testicles and - | along the sheath. The fore and hind limbs may also be enlarged. The ap- petite, as a rule, remains unchanged until the later stages, when it be- comes irregular. The discharge from the genital organs of the female has a tendency to accumulate on parts be- low, removing the coloring matter of the skin and leaving small, hairless, white spots. L SECOND STAGE. In the second stage the skin and lymph glands be- come diseased and the animal loses flesh rapidly. It also loses control of the hind legs and becomes lame. The swellings on the body and genital or- gans become less sensitive and small eruptions similar to nettle rash ap- pear, usually’ on the neck, shoulder tand loins. The animal lies down a great deal, and has more or less trou- ble in getting up, on account of the lnereuing paralysis of the hind legs. e i, e THIRD STAGE. In plaln cases the third or nervous stage may find the animal unable to rige or stand unless supported. The temperature may be bove normal at this time and the appetite is poor and, irregular. The loss of flesh progresses rapidly, and slow, angTy looking ulcers may become wilespread over the body. Owing to fatense suffering, the animal is usual ty destroyed. Bourine runs its full course in from o8 to two Jears. - .About 80 per cent of the affected animals die, and recov- @y s possible only at the beginning of B disease. Deurine mar easily be mistaken for e - - Note the elevation of the right hind leg from the ground because of the This animal also showed drooping of the eyelids, swellings along the side of the body, and great loss of flesh, espe- Photograph by Dr. J. P. Foster of the Bu- reau of Animal Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, Wash- ‘highly technical laboratory process. Gt what {s known to veterinarians as viscular exanthema, which, however, appears in the acute form, affecting the genital organs without producing a constitutional disturbance. The pe: riod of incubation or, the time be- tween exposure and appearance of the symptoms is very short in vesicu- lar exanthema. While vesicular ‘ex- anthema affects the genital organs much as dourine does, it lasts only a short time and yields to. treatment readily. Small, colorless, bald spotsl resulting from the discharge from the affected organs may also be noticed in animals affected with vesicular éx- anthema. Urticaria or nettle rash may at times be confused with dourine be- cause of a similarity of eruptions oc- curring on varfous parts of the body. Urticaria, however, is of very short duration, often disappearing over night. Dourine may be determined by- ex- amination of the blood long before any characteristic. symptoms of the disease appear: The blood test is a The blood is collgcted and sent to the laboratory where the presence of the microscopic animal which causes dou- rine is determined by certain changes of the blood, whether the animals are healthy or diseased. LK TREATMENT. Drugs or medicines| are of little or no value in the treat- ment of dourine, so it is necessary to resort to preventive measures. The following rules should be strictly ad- hered to: (1) In districts ~where dxseasod animals have appeared or where ex- posed animeals are present, all mares should be examined before being bred. Where mares are affected with a dis- charge, and swelling of the external organs is present, they should be re- jected, and not bred until all symp- toms have disappeared. (2) Frequent examinations should be made of the stallion to make sure he is free from disease. If the male organ is found-diseased at any _time, the stallion should be removed from service until the nature of the condi- tion can be determined. (3) Information regarding sus- pected cases of diseased stallions or mares should be given readily, as it will aid in the control of the disease, which is spread only by breeding. TESTING CLOVER SEED. Simple Method for Home Use Ex- plained in Detail. A large portion of the clover fail- ures can be attributed to a lack of knowledge and consequent inattention to details. It is to the apparently lit- tle things that the most successful clover growers attribute their success. In growing clover it is a matter of wisdom to sow only seed of the best grade,, A germination test may be made at home, using two ordinary dinner plates and two sheets of blot- ting paper a little larger than the plates. Place one sheet of the blot- ting paper in one of the plates.and moisten it thoroughly. Count out 100 of the clover seeds and distribute them evenly over the moist blotting paper. Then moisien the other sheet of blotting paper, place it over the seeds, and cover with the other plate bottom side up. Put the tester in a warm place and keep the blotters thoroughly moist, but not too wet. It is always well to make the test in duplicate or triplicate. At the end of five or six days remove the covering and count the seeds that have germinated. In clover quite a number of the heaviest, best -appear- ing seeds may fail to germinate. These are called hard seeds. When the ‘seed coat of these -seeds is scratcied so that they can take up moisture. they germinate readily. It is very piobable that many of these hard seeds that fail to germinate when a test is ‘made do germinate when sown under field conditions. Tests for germination and purity of all agricultural seeds are made free of charge for residents of Minnesota at the Seed Laboratory, University Farm, St. Paul, Minn. ‘A new seed law went into effect in Minnesota July -1, 1918. 'All those who wish to sell seed should acquaint themselves with this law.
