THE CATTLE DISEASE IN PENNSYLVANIA.
Interesting Letter from Dr. Hiram Corson of M<oli
gomer y County.
The following interesting letter woe
writen to Dr. Worthington, of the Penn
sy vania Sena e, by Dr. Hiram Corson wh
gives a description of the disease, and his
mode of treating the satne. The articb
should be carefully perused by every rea
der of the REPORTER.
February 12, 1866.
DEAR DOCTOR :—There has been a very
fatal cattle disease prevailing in our neigh
borhood since the latter part of March,
1865, to which I desire to call your atten
tion by reporting a few facts
About 1860, a cow was bought in the
Philadelphia market by one of my neighbors
(since ascertained that she cauie from Dar
by, where a disease was prevailing in tin
dairies), and shortly after she was found to
be sick, but recovered soon after. Others
of his cattle got sick, and six of them db-d
at that farm, and eight others at another
farm, near by, belonging to him, and to
which a cow from the first diseased herd
had been brought. Three cows taken from
here to a farm a mile distant also got sick,
and communicated it to the cattle of anoth
er contiguous farm, and fifteen of those
cattle died. Whethei others were infected
I cannot now sa\ ; but as cases have oc
curred here and there every year since,and
a good many have died, it is not unlikely
that they came from thatsonrce. Omitting
the cases which may have occurred in tin
years 1862, '63 and '64, I will speak of the
diseases as it has been with us since the
beginning of 1865 ; and in doing this, 1
wish to establish one characteristic of the
malady, which is of great importance to us
as a guide to measures of relief from its
ravages. I allude to its mode of propaga
tion. It is infectiousor contagious as small
pox is ; that is, healthy cattle brought near
to a diseased one, even for a very brief pe
riod, will be affected, while if kept a dis
tance of only a few hundred yards from the
sick they will be in no danger.
A few days before April Ist, 1865, a milk
dairy man sold his half of about twenty
cattle, all of whom at the time seemed to
be will ; and on that farm no disease had
existed before. Like other milk dairies,
new cows were bought from time to time,
and at the time of sale it was observed that
one cow did not look very well. One cow
was bought by a neighbor ; she sickened
in a few days and (tied, and before August
filteen others died. Another man bought a
Cow —she soon sickened and died—then
others died, and the owner then sold to a
cow-huckster all the rest of ins cows at a
low price, for fear that they would all die.
A third man bought a cow—his sickened,
and with several others died, and the bal
ance were sold at an al/post nominal price.
Another man bought them. He took them
miles away. Seven of his cattle died, and
others were sold From this flock, in this
healthy region , another's farm stock was
affected, and it is still progressing in that
region. Now let me return to the first
man who bought of this herd. He lost six
teen cattle. One of his sick cows did not
die within the first two weeks' illness, as
was common,but recruited a little and held
on for many weeks. During this time she
was put in a lot along the public road :
and stood and lay, day after day, in the
shade near the fence. A " road cow " that
passed by her every morning as she grazed
this road, took the disease and died. The
cows of the neighbors on the opposite side
of the road were along the fence but a sir—
gle afternoon. They soon began to sicken
and a number of them died. This cow was
then put on the back part of the place, and
here she had an opportunity to come close
to a large herd of co -s on an adjoining
farm. They soon began to sicken and a
tut -iber have dii d, and nearly all the rest
have been sold to the cow hucksters and
distributed to other farms, and sold as beef
in Philadelphia markets. On the other side,
again, of the farm where the sixteen were
lost, there was a large dairy and those cows
ot the first farm not yet known to be sick,
were pasturing in an adjoining field. It
was communicated to them and seven of
them died, and the disease is still in pro
gress, as it is also on some of the others.
After the disease ran its course on the farm
win re sixteen died, they bought no more
cattle for about four mouths. About a
month ago they bought fourteen more.—
1 hey an- now nearly all showing symptoms
of the disease and one has just dii d. Let
me now come back to the vendor's place..—
The landlords eight or ten cows remained
there and a new tenant bought some more.
\eiy soon the landlord's cows began to
sicki II ; five of them died and two of the
tenani's died, and some were sold and some
pot well. Tne farmer next to this one also
lost two of his cows and then drove all the
rest away to market, and thus the disease
was stopped in that direction. I could go
on tracing it to farms all over our region,
but this will probably do for the present.
A me nth ago I felt it to be my duty, in
view of the fatality, but still more on ac
count of the horrible traffic which I learn
ed was constantly carried on, of diseased
meat, either as beef or bologna sausages
(as they boasted)for the Ph iladelpliia mar
ket and also because of the sale by farmers
of their infected cattle to other localities,
thus spreading the disease, making new
f'l i, from which it might spread, to set
about ttie investigation of the disease. The
examination during hfe of diseased cattle
convinced me of the disease being of the
iungs, and examination after death revealed
the most extensive inflaination of the ple
ura and lung. It is >ruly named pleura
pneumonia. I then commenced its treat
ment, and I am happy to say that they
have succeeded so well, as to believe that
by early and judicious treatment farmers
save many of their cattle. I brought the
matter before the medical society, and a
committee was appointed to report con
cerning it at our next meeting. To-day, I
addressed our agricultural society on the
. subject, for the purpose of getting informa
tiou in regard to the prevalence of the dis
ease in the various parts of the country,
and also ask the society to do something to
prevent the sale and distribution of diseas
ed cows to other sections, and the sale of
diseased meat to the pour of the city. The
members seemed greatly interested, and
passed a resolution authorizing the officers
ol the society to lay the subject before the
Legislature, in order that a law might be
passed to prevent a single animal of a dis
eased kind from leaving the premises. You
know the rinderpest was abolished in Ger
many only by surrounding every infected
district by a military cordon,which allowed
no animal to pass. Do 1 hear you say that
this disease is not the rinderpest ? I have
carefully examined every report on that
subject, and I can see but very little if any
difference in the symptoms. I have been
able to find only a single account of the
pathology of the disease- that given by
Professor Siruonds in 1857, and which
speaks of it being a disease of the blood,
acnng on the mucous membrane, or rather
trying t> relief itself by exudations through
m mt>rane,as is evidenced by the discharge
a„d dysenteric* which occur. 1 believe they
will be found of the same nature. Buton>-
thing at least is trite ; it spreads in the
-ame way and is very fatal. We are ex
s'Cting the cholera next summer, and is ii
not as important to protect the citizens ot
Philadelphia from diseased milk and meat
is from street smells, &c.? But I need m>'
say another word to you. Yon comprehend
lie whole subject already and 1 know yon
.vill not tail in your duly. It is not out ol
my disrespect to our own representative
that I do not write to him, but I am more
icquaiutcd with you Please consult with
•tint in relation to it. We have also lost a
great many hogs from hog-cholera this win
ter. This also appears to spread in the
same way—from one to another. 1 shall
coutinm my examinations and my treat
ment of cows, and will store up facts for
future generations, in the hope that they
will help us to form correct opinions in re
lation to this disease.

ERADICATION or STUMPS. —Where it is neces
ary to remove large slumps uuder circum
stances which render impracticable to avail
one's self of a "stump machine, " the work
may be successfully accomplished by born
ing This is done by digging under them,
filling the cavity with combustible materi
als, and covering the stump after firing
the materials, with turf, in tiie satne man
ner that coal-kins are covered. The fire |
will, in a short time, effect the entire d< - j
strnction of the stumps —even the long la- j
• eral roots, unless the soil is very humid, ;
in which case the burning should be under j
taken the operation will be more speedily |
effected. The ashes produced by the com-'
bustion will afford an excellent stimulus for j
the soil, and should be carefully applied as !
soon as the operation is completed. But j
in all cases where eradication by pulling is j
practicable the stump machine should be i
used - Germantown Telegraph
PROPER CARE of HORSES.— 1 will give my j
men the credit of taking good care of their i
horses. Of course, they do not clean them j
as thoroughly as they should—few men do. j
There is not one farm horse in a hundred
that is more than half groomed. A little
combing in the morning is frequently all j
the cleaning that horses get. 1 have seen \
horses brought home dripping wet and left |
for the night without as much as a wisp of
straw being rubbed over them. If such '
men were obliged to sleep in their wet ;
clothes, tliey would perhaps appreciate the I
cruelty of their conduct. Most farm men
seem to have a mortal dread of doing any
thing by candle light. If left to themselves
they would, at this season, quit work at
five o'clock, water tle-ir horses as they
bring them in, take off ihe harness. giv>
them some grain and fill the racks with hay, ,
bed them down and then leave them tiil half
past,five or six oc'lock next morning! Shade
of my forefathers, what would you say to j
such teamsters ? - Gen. Farmer.
POLISHING AND STARCHING LINEN —There is j
so much published about starching linen, I
it would seem that nothing new could lie
said ; but I will venture to say what may
tie new to some. After having tried all
the methods prescribed for cooking starch j
and cold water. To four good sized table- j
spoonfuls of starch add water to moisten ;
it sufficiently to rub it fine with the finger-, j
then add enough water to make a quart ; j
keep well iu motion while using it to pre
vent the starch from settling down. Tiiis i
amount will be sufficient for a dozen shirts j
with collars. After starching first the col- i
lars, a little water should be added for the i
bosoms and wristbands. The shirt should j
then be laid, the back down ; fold now one j
side over the bosom,with the sleeve straight i
down ; now fold the other side over, but i
lay this wristband higher up, to equalize \
the dampness ; then begin at the neck to j
roll it up tight. It may then be unrolled, j
and ironed immediately. I think tin* polish j
is better to begin ironing as soon as the j
starching is done. But in the" measures i
given, or mode of doing the work, practice j
only can make perfect ; yet I think few,
when this is gained, would ever change
back to cooked starch. If I wished to add
anything to help make a polish, I should
put into the first starch made, a little good !
cream tartar, say an even teaspoouful to
the above named amount.
Mrs. PM. WEEKS, j
To MAKE INDIAN PUDDING. —For a family i
of six, take two quarts of boiling m lk, stir |
in two cupfulls of Indian meal, a handbill '
of flour, two teaspoonfulls of salt, one-half j
cup of molasses, three pints sliced sweet j
apples, and quarter of a pound of fat polk, i
Bake three hours. It is good enough for j
the President. Try it, all lovers of farmers' j
fare.
TREAT ANIMALS GENTLY. —There is no doubt ;
but that the value of any animal is greatly
increased hy being perfectly docile ami not
constantly in tea whether of the owners or '
strangers. H >rses that are in a state <>f
nervous excitement while being handled, !
are not only unpleasant to the general run !
of drivers, lint are more or less dangerous :
because they require a constant watch' up- j
on them, and there are a lew per ons that \
are always upon their guard. In addition •
to this, more or less breakages occur even !
with the best horsemen,because a frightened
nervous animal d>>es not know what is wan
ted when any difficulty occurs. Many hor- ;
scs are quick to learn, and if kindly treated
have a remarkalde degree of intelligence, ;
which one would not expect to see iu the ;
brute creation
INCHES IN A BUSHEL.— The standard bush- j
els of the United States contains 2150 4 cu- ]
bicinches. The " Imperial bushel" is about
68 cubic inches larger being 2218.192 cubic
inches. Any box or measure, the contents
of which are equal to 2150 4 cubic inches,
will hold a bushel of grain. In measur>ng j
fruit, vegetables, coal and other similar sub- j
stances, one-fifth must be added. Iu other ;
words, a peck measure five times even full
makes one bushel. The usual practice is
to " heap the measure. " In order to gel
on the fifth peck, measures must be heap- d
as long as what is to lie measured will be
on.
FOULS IN SHEEP. —Sheep are much lees
subject to this disease than cattle : but en-_
counter it, if kept in wet, filthy yards, or j
on moist, poachy ground. It is an irrita-1
tion of the integument in the cleft of the;
foot, slightly resembling incipient hoof-ail, J
and producing lameness. It occasions, low-1
ever, no serious structural disorganization, j
disappears without treatment, is not conta
gions, and appears in the wet weather of {
spring and fall, instead of in the dry hut
period of summer, when the hoof-ail rages
most. A little solution of blue vitriol, or a i
little spirits •>4 turpentine—either, followed i
by a coating of warm tar —promptly cures
it.
LIME FOR GRAPES— Dr Kirtland of Ohio, I
thinks that where lime is need, d for grapes, I
the b st form in which to apply it is sul
phate of lime (gypsum of plaster.) He
would use from a bushel to a bushel and a
ball annually per acre.
