the nose, head and throat; clears the

! 5 STATES QUARANTINED FOR
| FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE
Shipments of Live Sto.k From Michi
gan. Indiana, Illiuois and Pennsyl
vania Prohibited and Restrictions
Placed on Those From Ohio
Washington. 1). C.. Nov. ii. The'
quarantine of live stock 011 account of i
outbreaks of the foot aud mouth dis-j
ease has been extended to cover the en-I
tire area of the States of Michigan. In- j
|d iana. Illinois and Pennsylvania. In I
addition, restrictions have been p ace 11
upon shipments of -Uu-k from Ohio. The ,
I order extending this quarantine wit 1
i signed by the Secretary of Agriculture!
November 2. and goes into effect .im
, mediately.
The provisions of this quarantine are
practically the same as those previously;
announced for a few counties in Michi
gan and Indiana. No cattle, sheep or j
i swine can be sliippr I from these s.ates!
in interstate commerce, and all t'odlerj
and animal pro lucts of every sort which |
might possibly convey the disease must 1
be thoroughly disinfected.
The quarantined States arc not only 1
prohibited from snipping cattle to un
infected areas. Lmt tiiev cannot even
' send shipments 01 s;qck l'roin one in
fected area to another.
No cases of foot and uio tth disease'
. I have as vet been discovered in Ohio,
but on account of the tact that ship
. nients from infected areas have been 1
ma le to this State, it has been fouu !
1 necessary to place practically the sam ■
restrictions upon interstate shipments!
i from Ohio as on those from the tour
other State-.
One instance of foot and mouth dis
1 ease has been found among the rock
( | exhibited at the National Dairy Showl
~in Chicago. In order to prevent tha
, . spread of the infection, the other ani- •
» 1 uials are now guarded liv sheets sit :
t united with disinfectants and inclosing
. the stalls. in much the same way as!
> ! human patients are isolated in hos-j
; pitals.
1 Other rigid precautions in regard to i
1 | the food an ! bedding of the stock have
| I also been put in force. The Federal
1 authorities in charge of the qauran
' tine are earnestly urging every farmer
| to rej ort at once any suspicious case
1 ; of sore mouths and lameness among iiis
•: stock. Ths is regarded as absolutely
| 1 indispensable, if the disease is to bo
1 stamped out. Unreported cases of dis
ease may result in spreading the iufec
t ion over areas which could otherwise
.■ be safeguarded. Persons who li.ive Te
j | coutly received shipments of cattle from
| the intectei areas slio.il 1 at once iso
-1 | late them. Ihe disease lakes only from
• i four to -is days to manifest itself, so
| 1 that this | recantien should cau-e but
, ■ very little inconvenience.

ot the preceding years, while the aver i
age full-time hours per week were in

I increase of wages and a reduction of
hours of work per week iu the industry
as a whole, though iu certain depart
ments the tendency toward higher

exception of plate mills, each of the
other dinartmentE ot the industry!
