THE OMAHA ' DAILY GLANDERS AND HOG CHOLERA Bome Information Regarding Thelir S8ymptoms and Treatment. AN IMPORTANT DOCUMENT. Btate Veterinarlan Gerth's Circular— Commissioner Leeso Wants Free Railroad Passes Abolished and Passenger Rates Reduced. [FROM THE DEE'S LINCOLN RURRAU.| A short time ago the Live Stock Sanitary eommission instructed Dr. J. Gerth, Jr., state veterinarian, to prepare a circular for general distribution over the state, relating to the This circular has been prepared, approved by the board and in a fow days will be ready for general distribution. That it will be of great value to stock owners us a class, and of dircct value to the com- mission in prosecuting their work is self-ovi- dent. The circular cites much of the law relative to how contagrions disease shall be reported, what indemnity is paid and how it can be obtained. This, however, is a secon- dary matter and is of record in all the sta- tistics, The discussions in the circular on glanders and hog cholera are timely and to the point and of interest to the stock owner. The circular gives the following DESCRIPTION OF GLANDEKS AND FARCY, “Glanders and farcy may be defined as a tagious deceuse peculiar to the equine 1t is transmit to man and al B! attle. Glanders and forms of the same ecting horses. If a lated with the matter may_ produce either , although usuall, farcy are only differs constitutional disease sound anitmal be i of glanders or far one or both, The di chronie, will frequ ly terminat glanders befor death, * Mo infe ment of gl s a fixed chara a8 experience be_suspe the atmospl plainsthe communication of the dise animal, in an affected, over-ci ventilated and unperfectly stable, where the air soon loaded with the infc by moans of the expired air from glande horses. In open flelds and pa ease does not spread so rapidly, and is rarely communicated, except by dircct inoculation, because the ocontagion is soon sufficiently diluted as to become harmless. In this, us in other contagious discases, a small percen of the cxposed animals will not become in- cted. This may be dependent upon the the glander poison, or upon the al condition of the animal at the time of exposure. Animals in good health do not seem 80 susceptible to infection as those that have had their constitution weakoned by im- proper care, feeding expostiro, eko. The in- Yoctious clement, of glandcrs Ia disbursed through the system by means of the blood. The virus of glanders may, under favorable circumstances, retain its activity for a long time. Boiling water, fire, chemicals and cer- tain disinfectants will thoroughly destroy its activity, when brought into actual contact with the same. 1t is also claimed that putre- faction will have the same effect. “The period of incubation in glanders varics from three to six duys to as many weeks. Glanders in its chronic form may continue for months and years before terminating in death, while acute glanders may cause death in from five to fifteecn days.” THE SYMPTOMS. Tho symptoms of glandors aro insugu- rated by a scanty, ly copious discharge Trom one or both nostrils, aquoots W6 firsk, afterward glaring and assc-uing & brownish yellow color. The discharke, intermitted_at times, is usuully continuous. 't is of asticky, gluish nature, and occasionally streaked with blood. ‘It adheres to the outer edge of the nostril and sometimes clogs up the nasal pir passages to such an extent as to cause difficulty in breathing. The discharge is not offensive, excopt when ulceration has taken place, to such an extent as to destroy the cartilego and other tissucs in the head, or when there is necrosis of the bones of the head, or a decayed tooth present also. The discharge is said to be most frequent from the left nostril but I have seen it as fre- quently from the right, and from both nos- trils as the left. The discharge is the most common ocarrier of the contagion. The sub- maxillary glands or glands under the jaw bones aro enlarged, hard_and painless to the touch, gradually becoming adherent to the bone, and do not how any disposition. to seperate or disappear. There is also tume- fecation of the nasal cavities and swelling of the tymphatic glands of the head and legs. Frequently also an accumulation of whitish matter i the corner of the eye, on the di- sensed sido of the head. ~Tho principal symptoms, however, that leave no doubt as 10 the exlstence of glanders is the formation of ulcerson the lining membrancof the nose.” HOW TO EXAMINE POR GLANDERS. “To examine & horse for glanders, place him in & stall f#cing an open door, cause an attendant to raise his head, so that the huhl will shine up the nostrils. The examiner should stand a little aside, and with his thumb and first finger dilate the nostril #0 that the mside of the nasal cavity may bo exposed to view. Uloers, if prosent, can easily bo seen; If not, any nedosity can readily be Aetected by passty (h6 fneers Oyet tho Tning of membrane of the nasal cavity. Persons with wounds or excoritations on their hands or face should have nothing to do with_the examination of a horse suspected to have glanders or farcy. Distemper, catarrh, nasal gloot are diseases sometimes mistaken for glanders.” DISINFECTANTS, “Stables in which glandered horses have been kept should be thoroughly disinfected. All refuse fodder and litter should be re- moved, the walls scraped and vlhlwwusked the floor should be dcntro\«l and six inches of dirt removed beneath it. Mangers, boxes, brushes and pails should be burned. The barn should then be closed—first breaking sulphur on an iron dish, setting it on firc and then leaving the barn closed for three hours. Other disinfectants are given by the doctor, but this s claimed to be within tho reach of all and practical.” HOG CHOLERA. “thflmf the rava, of hog cholera,” says the circular, ‘‘can be cured by inoculas tion is still very questionable. It has never been satisfactorily demonstrated that any benefits can be derived from this mothod. Nor does it seem probable that inoculation ©an be made practicable. 1f, therefore, far- mers and swine brecders apply such rules as are herein suggested, they would be able to reduce their losses to a minimum_and cope successfully with the disease. If an out- break cxists, scparate all healthy from dis- eased hogs a8 soon as possible. The healthy hogs should be removed to a new and unin- fected pasture or pen, and carefully watched by an attendant. Should any that have been thought well become weak or appear to bo sick, ailing or off thew feet, take them out and kill them. Al diseased hogs should be killed and cremated as soon as possible. Sec- tion 1, chapter 5, laws of 1885, entitled ‘An act 0 provent the spread of hog cholera,’ makes it the duty of the owner of swine dying from hog cholera to either bury or burn them within twenty-four hours after death, on his own premises. —If neighbors would see to the enforcement of this law they would in all probability save themselves frequently from serious losses, and would do the_public great service. If hogs are healthy, it is ad- Fiabio nover 40 aiiow new hogs to inter- gmingle with them in the herd until after hav- ing them subjected to a strict quarantine of not less than seven weeks, Neither is it ad- wvisable or safe to allow anyone to go into hog fpens after returning from an infected place, Without first changing their boots. There should be but ohe attendant to look after sick snimals, who, during such service, should not be allowed to leave the place. Hogs should never be watered ata stream if it comes running from where the disease is known to exist. Dogs or other animals be- longing to infected farms should not be allowed to roam about at will where hogs are hfux, as they may carry infection with them. f these rules are carefully observed there need be little fear of hog cholera causing any :-rmul 1oss, or spreading o auy alarming ex- nt. The circular is made official with the signa- of the members of the live stock com- uission. They are printed for general dis- bursement aud to assist in educating people on these very prevalent diseases. The sheriffs of the different countics will be sup- plied with the circulars, and they will be for- warded gratuitously to all who desire them TO REDUCE PASSENGER KATES. Commissioner Leese, of the board of trans R.rulwn has submitted his suggestions to searolaries of the board for thew to re- port upon at the meeting of the board Janu- ary 5.

Antoine Byoke Fircs the Old Man and Woma Antoine Byolke, who presides over a hash- ery on Fifteenth strect, near Capitol avenue, was arrested yesterday charged with Deating his mother-in-law. He stood up be- foro the court and said it was all a mistake. In the first place he said his father-in-law, Benak Battello, eame into his house and ac- cused some of his boarders of robbing him of This made Antoine “madderish he pefore vos,” and he fired his father-in- law out into the beautiful snow. A few mo- ments later and his mother-in-law swooped down upon the housc and declared her- slf. Finally she got so loud and 8o belligerent that Byoke thought it wouldn’t be abad idea to throw her out, too. But when he laid hands upon her, oh my!

He tackled his mother-in-law with & valor unexampled, and with one blow of his fist he not only closed her left eye, but knocked her over the kitchen stove. She then took her departureand her next pro- codure was to have her undutiful son-in-law arrested. - Out of a mass of jargon the judge fished out sufficient evidence to justify the levying u special tax on Antoine ‘of $10 and costs, which he paid and departed, no wiser, or sadder, but jast 5o much *‘oud.” is out of A cough, cold or sore throat should not b neglected.” Brown’s Bronchial Troches ar a simplo remedy, and give prompt relief. ¢ cts. a box.
