A Modified Quarantine in Relation to
Foot-and-Mouth Disease.
Went into effect February as'.ta.
1909. The limits of territory quar
antined are prescribed by the Unit
ed States Department of Agricul
ture. The ouarantine will, how
ever, be enforced by the State Live
k ;
stuck banitary Itoara cxcepti
relation to shipments from
Quarantined districts to points out
side of Pennsylvania. Under this i j
new regulation, the areas qti trail-i
tined are to be considerably dimin
ished in size and greater freedom
of movement and shipment are to
be permitted.
Under the former quarantine Or
der, as established by the United
States Department of Agriculture,
the district involved twenty-six
counties, in eleven of which there
had been no foot and -mouth disease.
The Federal authorities have now
accepted the view of the State au
thorities, to the effect that it is safe
to draw in the quarantine lines so
that only those townships in which
disease actually occurred and the
adjoining townships shall continue
in quarantine, excepting in one
county where the last disease wa.
found, to which the same regula
tion will apply as soon as the farm
to farm inspection is completed.

be necessary to take out permits
for moving lives'ock within the
quarantined districts, and permit
will also be issued for the removal
from the quarantined districts of
animals for immediate slaughter.
Permits will be granted promptly
and, as heretofore, without cost,
upon application to any one of the
branch offices or to agents of the
State Livestock Sanitary Board.
It is also required that hay and
straw and hides taken out of the
quarantined districts shall be mov
ed cnly on permit. In the case of
hides and skins, disinfection will
be required before such transfer is
allowed if they were removed from
cattle, calves or sheep before Janu
ary 1st. 1909.
The infection of foot-and-mouth
disease may linger for several
months about places that have har
bored infected cattle. Since it is
pofsible that all the infer td places
have not been found, even though
an exceedingly careful search has
been made, it is necessary, for the
protection of the livestock interests
of the community, the state and
the nation, to continue some restric
tions and oversight in these gener
al localities where the disease has
occurred. It is hoped that the ne
cessity for this oversight will soon
be past. The State authorities are
;xceed ngly anxions to remove all
.estrictions as quickly as this may
properly ce done, and as soon as
hey are permitted so to do by the
United States Department of Agri
culture. The United States government
cannot enforce a quarantine with
.-elation to a part of a state, but
only with relation to an entire state;
therefore, if the local quarantine is
not faithfully observed and enforc
ed, the entire State will be quaran
tined for the protection of the rest
f the country. It is understood,
:ben, that if the local quarantines
ire not continued in the manner
lemanded by the United States au
horities, it will become necessary
.or snch authorities to place a
fuarantine on livestock and farm
-ommodities in the entire State.
In relation to Columbia county.
The entire county has heretofore
teen under quarantine regulations
vhich have prohibited the ship
nent of cattle, sheep and swine,
nd of hay and straw and of undis
nfected hides, skins and hoofs of
attle sheep and swine from this
ounty to other States, and to parts
i rennsyivania not in quarantine.
Under the new quarantine order
11 restrictions are removed and
.mpnients may be made freely to
- ny point from all parts of Coluni
ia county except from the town
hips of Hemlock and Montour
Restrictions are continued on these

Elks Want a Reservation.
Mc Henry Presents Petition ot Milton Lodge,
B. P. 0. E.--Want Public Lands Used.
Hon. John G. McHenrv. Repre
sentative for this district has pre
sented a petition of Milton Lode-e.
No. 913 Benevolent and Protective
uraer 01 hiks, tor an American elk
reservation in Wvomine. which was
referred to the committee on public
anas.
It is believed here this is the hp-
ginning of a mcvement on the part
of the Elks of the entire country
that will culminate in the setting
apart of a considerable tract of pub
lic iana, winch under the auspices
of that order will be used to propa
gate and protect that specie of wild
animal.
Mr. McHenry is following the
matter up with energy and as a
great many of the senators and rep
resentatives in congress are mem
bers of the order, the
islation to compass the result is
likely to be enacted in the near fu
ture. The Ghost of the Abbey

The great grange of Pennsylvan

Its legislative and executive com-,
mittees in session at Harrisburg ad-1
vised that the educational commis-'
sion be continued and asked to re
visa its work, and after thorough
debate, the committees adopted the
following resolutions :
Whkreas, The school code pre
pared by the educational commis-

The Big Road Project.
The committees declared in favor
of a general hearing by the legisla
ture of all persons interested in
good roads and to carry out this
idea adopted a resolution calling
for a general meeting of all nersnns
, ' r 1
interested in good roads, to be held
in the capitol the second week in
March.
The foliowing declarations were
made on general road legislation :
With some amendments we favor
the passage of the Jones bill on
township roads, which provides
State aid of 50 cents for each dol
lar raised locally up to a miximum
of $20 per mile.
We demand a reorganization of
the State highway department to
the end that this branch of our
government shall lay out a com
plete system of State roads connect
ing our large towns and county
seats, for preparing bulletins on
m a
township road construction, main
tenance, etc.
We are opposed to building the
boulevard from Philadelphia to
Pittsburg, tor the reasons that
there are no plans as to routes,
ccst or kind of construction, and
no plans of any State roads in oth
er sections ot toe state.
We have been working for near-
ly four years without any plans or
ystem, and we believe that the
first thing necessary is to make ar
rangements for a complete system
of State road construction, to the
end that each county may know
what it may expect.
Action on other Measures.
These resolutions were also
adopted :
Whereas. The State roads
built by present methods wear out
in a few years, therefore be it
xesoived, That we are unalter
bly opposed to bonding the Statp
for payment by future, generations
for roads long since worn out.
Resolved, Tha we favor an a
mendment to the present trollev
law, compelling the companies
operating lines to carry freight in
the rural districts.
