PREBLE STOCKMEN ADVOCATE KILLING OF DISEASED HERD Society Organized to Prevent Spread of Plague Backs Federal Officials in Slaughter of Cattle. , EATON, O., Nov. 18. Following a thorough examination of all herds of rattle suspected, state and federal veterinarians announced Tuesday that the only case of hoof and mouth disease in the county existed In a large herd owned by George C. Sauers, four miles east of Euton. The herd consists of nearly one hundred head, eighty of which Sauers purchased in Chicago a few days previous to the closing of Union Stock Yards. The disposition of the cattle was discussed Tuesday with prominent farmers who became members of an association formed here Monday for the purpose of aiding authorities in stamping out the disease. I. M. Biddhiger, president of the organization said today that farmers generally have concluded that a wholesale slaughter would be the only way to prevent tther cattle in the county from contracting the disease. According to Mr. Ulddinger, the slaughter probably will be Wednesday. Speaking of the purpose of the new organization of farmers in Preble cpunty, Mr. Biddinger said the object is to aid and not antagonize inspectors. Frank Rinck and Jesse Plory, representing the organization, held a conference with inspectors at headquarters in Dayton Tuesday. The association will employ an expert veterinarian for the purpose of establishing beyond a doubt the exlstunce of disease in a herd.

LIVE STOCK

BY LEASED WIRE. CHICAGO. Nov. 18. Removal of the embargo on shipments of live cattle from the Union Stock Yards "was flatly refused today by Dr. S. F. Bennett, Federal inspector in charge of foot and mouth disease. Dr. Bennett made his ruling over the protests of a Bcore of big cattle men. He said the government -would lift the embargo when every case of the plague had been stamped out of Illinois. Receipts at the yards today were: Cattle 11,000; hogs 30,000; sheep 14,000. Prices were 25 cents lower for hogs and 15 cents lower for cattle. The packers apparently are going to make good on their promise that they will give retailers no excuse for advancing meat prices as the result of the plague. A direct appeal to President Wilson was made today by the Live Stock Exchange to make a public statement assuring the country that he would ask congress at the next session to appropriate money to reimburse the farmers' losses from the foot and mouth disease. The appeal was made by telegraph and a reply was received from Secretary Tumulty saying he would lay the matter before the president at once. The Federal inspectors, when they have killed cattle, have given the owners, receipts, while no promises were mode, the cattle men were given to understand that Congress would appropriate money to reimburse them. These receipts in addition to notes the farmers have been obliged to issure, are said to total $2,700,000. This large amount includes receipts for cattle now under quarantine, as well as for stock already killed. With this amount of paper outstanding, the farmers are having a hard time getting money. son lump or egg, $5.75; Winifred, $4.75; Jewel, $5.25; Tennessee, $5.50; Hocking Valley, $4.50; Indiana, $3.75; coke, $7; Winifred Washed pea, $4.00; nut and slack, $3.00.

TREASURER GETS TAX FROM ALASKA

Time and dipcomforture were saved by several hundred tax payers in Richmond and Wayne county who sent checks through the mails to the county treasurer. The work of crediting the taxes was completed today. The taxes paid by mail total $137,000. Bank deposits of the county treasurer since the close of the tax paying time two weeks ago have been $140,000. One tax payer formerly of Richmond is given consideration before all others. The tax payer is Mrs. Amanda Carter of Nome, Alaska. Because of the slow mail service between United States and this Alaskan city, correspondence between the treasurer's office and Mrs. Carter is measured in months instead of days. Mrs. Carter's check for taxes was received a week ago.
