INDIANA PLANS DRIVE AGAINST DISEASED STOCK Farmers Advised to Write for Agreement Blanks in Fight on Tuberculosis. INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., April 25. "The Indiana State Veterinary Depart ment la now working out plans In order to systematize the details of. tbe organized fight against tuberculosis in live stock, co-operation with the federal government, the live stock producer, farmer and veterinarian." says Dr. I E. Northrup, state veterinarian, explaining the provisions of the tuberculosis Indemnity law by which all cattle reacting to the test for this disease are killed and paid for up to two-thirds of the appraised value, as provided by the state law. The 1919 general assembly appropriated $50,000 with which to co-operate with federal funds to repay the owner of animals slaughtered because they have reacted to the test. The federal government pays one-third of the difference between the salvage and appraised value of tbe animal and the state pays a like amount. Tbe federal government may pay up to $25 for grade animals and up to $50 for purebreds. Tbe state can pay up to $40 for grade animals and up to $80 for purebreds. according to this new law. Effective In Few Weeks. When this act becomes effective within the next few weeks, Indiana farmers will be asked to take advantage of this co-operative law by entering into an agreement with the federal and state authorities, to permit their herds to be examined and to be tuberculin tested at such times as are necessary and to meet with all the conditions prescribed by the bureau of animal industry and the state veterlnary department In tbe fight against tuberculosis. "It is necessary that so far as pos

sible tuberculosis be eliminated from the cattle herds," said Dr. Northrup, "for that means aiding In the control of this disease In the human family. Under the provisions of this law the owner of the animals reacting is paid at least In part for his loss and he is thereby interested in getting rid of diseased animals and to maintain a tuberculosis-free herd. Write for Blanks. "Indiana live stock breeders should write for the agreement blanks. We have them now ready for distribution. It Is the duty of everybody connected with the live stock industry to improve the health and condition of cattle, and this is one of the long needed steps in the right direction." The reacting animals are shipped for slaughter ' to the nearest point where federal inspection is maintained. The salvage Is taken from the appraised value and one-third of the remainder paid by each co-operative party. During tbe war period such salvage has been very close to $100 per head on an average, some of the beef breed reactors reaching as high as $175.

The wea affected contained a population of 238,026,240, and the number of deaths was 4,899,725 or 20.6 deaths per thousand. In a few months it is observed influenza claimed half as many victims as did. the dreaded plague in a period of twenty years. - The influenza, which made its appearance in India last autumn, was particularly fatal In the central, north: em and western portions while m Burma, it was not so severe. No part of the Punjab escaped. The hospitals were so choked, it was impossible to quickly remove the dead and mako room for the dying. Streets and lanes of the city were littered with dead and dying people aDd the postal and telegraph services were completely demoralized. The burning gnats and burial grounds were literally swamped with corpses while an even greater number awaited removal from houses and hospitals. The depleted medical service, itself sorely stricken by the epidemic, was incapable of dealing with moro than a minute fraction of sickness requiring attention.
