The disease is of rare occur- rence and is particularly malignant. is its first appearance in this part of the country. The disease first showed itself two days ago in the herds of two dairies supplying milk in this city. It spread rapidly and already nearly half a hundred cows are affected, says Dr. Eddy. The disease is a contagious inflamma- tion of the udder. It attacks the gland ducts and follicles, causing deep-seated swellings, which are often hard. It usual- ly affects the milch cows and may go t{rcngh an entire herd. Even if the cows recover a portion of their udders are often left in a diseased ‘condition. The disease is due to a septic germ and is carried from one cow to another by the milk- er's hands. Eruptions are resent upon the skin of the teat and udder and the swelling is very pronounced. There are constitutional disturbances shown by emaciation, languor and refusal to eat the court Will Pray for Rain. Spectal Mhspatch to Thé Call. SAN DIEGO, Feb. 24—To-morrow | morning and evening the prayers of the orthodox ministers of the city are to be offered for the rain which is so much needed in this county as well as through- out Southern California. That was the decision arrived at at this week's meet- ing of the Ministerial Association of San Diego. The rainfall for this season is 4.55 inches short of the average seasonal fall to this time in the year and there has not been a good rain for nearly two months. Moreover the county has not had sufficient rain for fully wur years and the ground could easily take care of a double allowance for the next three months without complaint being offered by any one. The wishes of tne people go with the prayers of the ministers, —————— birds. At the Prizes will be Three Cheers for the Shoe Sale.
