ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS.
——Between nine and ten o'clock on
Saturday evening the house owned and
occupied by Joshua Eckenroth and fam-
ily at Horntown, near Pleasant Gap, was
partially destroyed by fire. The family
were at Hublersburg at the time and how
the fire originated is unknown. Mr.
Eckenroth carried some insurance.
—Every member of the Woman's
Club is asked to aid in helping make the
meeting at the Country Club, Friday of
next week, a success. Going down in
the afternoon train, dinner will be served
at six o'clock, the party returning on the
night train. The committee in charge
will see each member personally, that the
steward may be notified as to the num-
ber, consequently, a positive answer is
necessary from all members.
——There has been a great deal of
speculation as to why they don't have a
flying machine at the fair. The answer
is simple: A flying machine that will fly
would cost about $1600 for three exhibi-
tions and as the management realizes
that even with a flying machine attrac-
tion there would still have to be bands
and other free amusements the additional
cost would not be compensated by in-
creased attendance. To pay for a flying
machine, alone, it would take 6400 paid
admissions.
——Nittany valley is hard up for resi-
dent physicians. Dr. P. S. Fisher, of Zi-
on, has been housed up for months with
no hope of ever being able to resume
practice, while Dr. S. S. McCormick, of
Hublersburg, who has been a sufferer
with Bright's disease for some time, was
stricken with paralysis about ten days
ago and is now almost helpless. Both
doctors are under the care of Bellefonte
physicians, and everything possible is be-
ing done for their comfort and restora-
tion of health.

———Mechanics and laborers are in de-
mand at State College, owing to the build-
ing operations going on there and the
necessity of getting the buildings com-
pleted by the opening of college, if pos-
sible. Good headway is being made upon
the large addition to the engineering
building and ‘while it will hardly be com-
pleted in time for the opening of college
it will be within a week or two there-
after. Twelve houses are also in course
of construction and to finish these on
time will require some tall hustling on
the part of the contractors, but that is
what they are aiming to do.
——The remodeling of the Nittany
Valley road is proceeding very slowly,
only about three miles of the road hav-
ing been completed. When work was
started it was stated that enough men
would be put on the job to complete the
road through to Cedar Springs this fall.
Now the reason given out for not doing
so is the fact that the stone cannot be
secured in quantities great enough to
work any more men than they now have
on the job. Boss Hurley figures that at
the present rate they will probably be
able to get as far as Hecla this fall, but
if there is much bad weather they will
probably fall a good bit short of that.

——Bellefonte housekeepers are com-
plaining about the few peaches that so
far have been offered for sale in the
Bellefonte markets;and the few that have
been were at an almost prohibitory price.
There is no crop in Centre county worth
speaking of but in some of the counties
in the southern part of the State, espe-
cially through the Cumberland valley,
the crop is quite large. One peach grow-
er near Chambersburg has been market-
ing from four to five hundred baskets
daily and the price is regarded as very
low. Dealers in neighboring towns have
had a good supply of peaches but Belle-
fonte dealers for some reason have been
shy of them. The reason probably is
that it is too early for the finest flavored
peaches. The Michigan, York State and
Ohio peaches will not be in market for
several weeks. At that time there will
be a carload or more here.

young friends wish for them a long and
happy married life.
——All you people in Bellefonte who
have observed that we have not had
nearly as many flies about this summer
as in former years might be at a loss to
understand the cause. We were until
the other evening when J. Harris Green's
desire to have the truth prevail got the
better of his usually extreme modesty.
Early in April, it appears, at the very
time when any two old flies might be
making eyes at each other in a way that
means billions of posterity before the
season is ended, he began to swat them
and kept at it so vigorously that there is
every reason to believe that our short
crop of flies is directly traceeble to his
foresight and energy.

| The matter will be brought up at the

that the constables and supervisors may
not be in ignorance of their respective
| duties the district attorney has issued the
following statement:
The attention of all constables and
supervisors, as well as the authori-
ties in the of the county, is
called to the condition of the public
roads in their respective districts.
The existence of breakers, as they
are called, in the roads have been
held by the courts to be evidence of
negligence on the part of the author-
ities permitting the same, and in
recent cases ve cost townships
large amounts for damages done to
conveyances used by the traveling
public by reason of their existence
in the roads. And where the cause
can be traced to the negligence of
duty devolved by law upon the prop-
i authorities of ihe jWHSHigs and
roughs, they may personal-
ly liable for the damage caused by
eir neglect.
It is further made the duty of the
supervisors of the townships and
borough authorities by law to re-
move, at least once a month, duking
the months of May, June, Augusta
ber al
public roads.
The attention of the court and the
district attorney has been called to
the very bad condition of the roads
in many townships, and the streets
in the boroughs by return of the con-
stables, and by personal complaint
made by the traveling public.
In order to eT Te rights of
the traveling public, and protect the
taxpayers from liabilities for large
damages, it will be necessary for all
constables to examine and report to
court the conditions of roads in their
townships, and for all supervisors to
re their roads for such exami-
nation.

CHESTNUT TREE BLIGHT EXHIBIT. —Ar-
rangements have been completed with
the Pennsylvania Chestnut Tree Blight
Commission for the placing of an exhi-
bition at the Grange encampment and
fair at Centre Hall, September 14th to
| 20th.
The chestnut bark disease has already
killed nearly all of the chestnut trees on
Long Island and around New York city,
and is doing immense damage to the tim-
ber around Philadelphia and throughout
eastern Pennsylvania.
The State Blight Commission, through
its representatives, is making an effort to
control this disease and save the valua-
ble chestnut timber in Centre and other
Pennsylvania counties, where very little
blight has yet appeared.
Specimens of the blight in all its stages
will be shown, and it is hoped that all
owners of timber land and valuable chest-
nut trees will gain from the exhibition a
thorcugh knowledge of the disease. In
this manner the first evidence of infec-
tion will be easily detected and the dis-
eased trees can be destroyed without un-
necessary delay, the lumber being utiliz-
ed and the disease burned.
The exhibition will be in charge of an
experienced and competent forester who
will explain the symptoms of the blight,
describe the methods of control, and sup-
ply other information of value. Illustra-
tions showing the work of the blight will
be shown and literature for general dis-
tribution, giving further information.
It is believed that a large number of
people will take advantage of this oppor-
tunity to save their chestnut trees by
learning how to combat this new and
serious enemy.
WOODRING FAMILY ANNUAL REUNION.

the heavy down-pour of rain during the
entire day and evening, but what was
lacking in numbers was made up in gen-
ial sociability and those present had a
very good time. Those present from
this locality were, Porter Woodring and
son, of Port Matilda; Abram Woodring,
of Tyrone; D. W. Woodring and wife and
Robert H. Woodring, of Bellefonte, Ad-
dresses were made by the president, R.
D. Wotring, of Allentown; Abram Wood-
ring, of Tyrone; Porter Woodring, of
Port Matilda. Rev. J. S. Reninger gave
a very instructive address. A recitation
by Clayton Woodring and a short ad.
dress by Mrs. Abram Woodring, of Ty-
rone, who by the way was a Marylander
before her marriage; and a letter was
read from a Rev. Wotring, of California,
by Rev. W. H. Wotring, of Nazareth, who
also made a short address. The old offi-
cers were re-elected by acclamation and
the time fixed for the next reunion, to
be held at the same place, the second
Saturday of August, 1913.

papers, but, I felt so serious about this
matter that I thought your eyes might
possibly miss the editorial, which would
hardly be possible.
I am also writing you three extracts
from the three Presidential candidates
speeches of acceptance of the nomination
for President of United States touching
upon the constitution of the United
States. The first is from Mr. Taft's
presidential speech of acceptance in
which he says.
“The Republican party stands
for the constitution as it is, with
such amendments adopted according
to its provisions as new conditions
orsughly understood may require.
We believe that it has stood the test
of time, and that there have been
disclosed really no serious defects in
its operation. It is said that this is
not an issue in the campaign. It
seems to me it is the supreme issue.
The Democratic party and the form-
er Republicans who have left their
party are neither of them to be trust-
ed, in this subject as I have shown.
The Republican party is the nucleus
of that public opinion which favors
constant progress, and development
along safe and sane lines and under
the constitution, as we have had it
for more than one hundred years,
eT ats
nance of an i t ary as
the Keystone of our liberties and the
balance wheel by which the whole
governmental machinery is kept with-
in the original plan.”
The No. 2 form is from Mr. Wilson's
speech of acceptance in which he says:
“Plainly, it is a new age. The
tonic of such a time is very ex-
hilerating. It requires self-restraint
not to attempt too much, and yet it
would be cowardly to attempt too lit-
tle. The path of duty soberly and
bravely trod is the way to service
and distinction, and many adventur-
ous feet seek to set out upon it.
There never was a time when im-
tience and suspicion were more
a oi ik by Puivans power se}
fishly em b when usy o
everything concealed or touched with
any purpose not linked with general
good, or inconsistent with it, more
Sharply or immediately displayed
itself.
The No. 3 is from Mr. Roosevelt's
speech of acceptance in which Mr.
Roosevelt says.
“But when a judicial deci-
sion involves an interpretation
of what the le mean by the
constitatione wiih tans have form.
aws e people are
plified because the iy say
ose laws are contrary to peo-
ple’s will as expressed in their con-
stitution. There must be a reference
to the le of the public effect of
such ns under forms securing
full deliberation to the end that the
people may rectify this alleged defect
n their constitution by a popular
vote having all the force of a consti-
tutional amendment.”
I want the newspapers and the people
to know for there own benefit that Mr.
Taft is the only candidate who has re-
ferred to the opposite parties by using
extraordinary insulting and unbecoming
language to come from the President of
the United States, he says: “The Demo-
cratic party and the former Republicans
who have left their party are neither of
them to be trusted in the above subject
as he has shown.” No doubt Mr. Taft in
a very few weeks will be stumping the
United States at the expense of the peo-
ple, and asking the Democrats and Re-
publicans who have left their party to
vote for him for President. One of the
Republicans who cannot be trusted, to
whom Mr. Taft refers I presume, is Mr.
Rocsevelt. It has been only a few years
ago when Mr. Taft and all the Republi-
can newspapers were telling the people
of the United States that Mr. Roosevelt
was the only man that could be trusted
with the affairs of the United States and
the only man worthy of being President,
and it is a well known fact that had it
not been for the efforts and influence of
Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Taft would not be
President today. You will observe that
Mr. Taft is well pleased with the consti-
tution because it has stood for more than
one hundred years. No doubt he would
be better pleased if it were one thousand
years old. The people of the United
States are a modern and progressive peo-
ple and it is absolutely necessary that
they have for their President a strictly
modern and up-to-date man in every
. ‘Times have changed, yes, in-
deed times have changed. And there are
still greater changes in store for us. But
as people grow to think better, they will
grow to do better and then they will
grow to be better. The people generally
and the Republican party have especially
long been giving evidence of being dis-
satisfied with their Presidents. They
themselves want a change for the vetter,
and they are awaiting the opportunity to
ing election, so that the people will have
a change for the better. In conclusion I

ative to the Republican “soup houses.” | known as Carbon county disease.
I am fully aware of the fact however This is a contagious and infectious dis-
that you are strictly up-to-date and have | ease, caused by a germ usually found in
all New York and Philadelphia's leading | the swampy pastures in the mountain
ous regions, especially where there is a
lot of decomposed vegetable matter. This
disease spreads very rapidly, and the
mortality being very high, anywhere from
fifty to eighty per cent. of cattle affected
die. The animals affected resemble
very much those cattle affected with
black leg, or Anthrax, and yet by a care-
ful examination the distinction can be
easily determined.
It attacks mostly young cattle, among
which it is most virulent, and is trans-
missible to all domestic animals. It has
not been known to have attacked human
beings.
The animals affected develop and
show the effect of a high fever, rumina-
tion ceases, staring coat, some times a
cough, slight bleeding from nose and
mouth, and a mucous discharge. Some
animals develop a swelling of the glands
between the jaws and arcund the throat
causing breathing to be labored and
swallowing some times impossible, the
visible mucous membranes of eye and
nostrils being a deep red or violet tinge.
The animal strays from the herd, wal“s
with a staggering gait, finally dying with-
out much struggling.
The blood is very black, otherwise un-
changed. Death may occur in six hours
or may be delayed as long as four days.
As a precaution it is better to remove
all animals from infected pastures, keep-
ing them from other cattle and animals
as much as possible. Disinfect stable,
troughs, mangers and yards as thorough-
ly as possible. In addition to pasture,
feed good wholesome food, protect from
cold and dampness so that exposed cat-
tle may resist the disease to a greater ad-
vantage, should they become infected.
Burn the carcass of animals dying of this
disease, or bury deeply, covering with
lime so as to hasten decomposition.
Last Friday Dr. S. M. Nissley, of Belle-
fonte, and Dr. W. H. Fry, of Pine Grove
Mills, made an investigation of the pas-
tures and animals as far as possible. On
Saturday Dr. Nissley was called to the
farm of Orvis Peters, near Stormstown,
to see one of the animals that had
been removed from the pasture. After a
careful examination the animal was seen
to have a well developed case of this dis-
ease.
Dr. Marshall, State veterinarian, desir-
ing some specimens of this disease, had
Dr. W.C. Crocker, one of the patholo-
gists of the veterinary department of the
University of Pennsylvania, come here
and make a post mortem of this animal
and from these specimens, if possible,
isolate the organism and develop an an-
titoxin to combat Hamorrhagic Septi-
camia.
During the week several new cases
have developed and several deaths re-
The State Live Stock Sanitary Board is
rendering every assistance possible and
it is hoped that in the near future an an-
titoxin may be made that will lessen the
mortality and finally eradicate the dis-
ease, which will not only be a blessing to
the live stock owners of Centre county,
but the country in general.
