In addition, a large percentage of South Omaha s receipts originated In the states of Colorado, Iowa, Idaho, Montana, Missouri, Nevada, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Wyoming. South Omaha, b packing Industry represents fifty per cent of Nebras ka's total manufacturing, and equali in value half the annual gold output of the United Slates and Alaska. Its live stock and packing industry is Nebraska's greatest commercial asset. South Omaha has experienced re markable growth as a cattle market, whereas Chicago and Kansas City are handling practically the same num ber of cattle annually they did twen ty years ago. South Omaha has doubled in its receipts and continues to grow despite a shortage in the United States of nearly 15.000,000 head as compared with the year 1907. and a considerable part of this shortage has been In the western states, from which South Omaha re ceives a large share of its receipts. E. BUCKINGHAM This steady growth In cattle receipts at South Omaha Is attributed, as In i h cane of sheeD. to unexcelled facil- Hies offered the natrons of this mar- ket, together with the higher prices na rnmnared with other markets. In th marketing of live stock, as In other lines of the commercial world, modern methods and facilities must be afforded natrons of public markets, and to meet these require ments, the South Omaha market has, among other important improve ments, completed and now In use: A new series of concrete unloading chutes costing $75,000.00 Reinforced concrete Incineration Plant for consuming manures and rubbish of the yards, $35,000.00 A splendid water system, with an ample supply of pure, cool water, to meet the needs of the yards for years to come, costing $265,000.00 To accommodate the growing needs of the horse market, there has Just been completed the finest, most modern and complete horse barn ev er erected at any live stock market. The building covers a little over two acres of ground and its construction of concrete, brick and steel makes It absolutely fireproof In every partic - f ' . -' ular. This addition to the vast iinnerio me comparatively isoiai number of improvements being made ed position of the United States has by the South Omaha market for the kept it remarkably free froi. the dis use and benefit of its patrons, repre- sents an outlay of approximately $150,000.00. and furnishes stall room for about 900 bead.

Phone 58. 20-tf-5440 PLAGUE IS SUBSIDING End of the Foot and Mouth Cam palgn Believed to be In Sight Danger from Infection The announcement that on April 1, for the first time since the appear ance of the disease last October, there were no animals known to be affected with the foot-and-mouth dis ease In the United States, Is believed to Indicate that the end of the long campaign Is In sight. Additional cases are expected from time to time In fact two new herds were report ed from Illinois the morning after the announcement was made but such cases are regarded as more or less sporadic and if promptly report ed can be dealt with before the con tagion has had an opportunity to spread widely. Under the best circumstances, however, It will be some time yet be fore all danger of a new outbreak Is over, in sections where the disease has been prevalent the contagion is likely to linger In manure, hay, feeds of various kinds, and on the ground itself. Even after premises where the disease has existed have been thoroughly disinfected It Is not con sidered wise to Introduce new stock until at least 60 days have passed. In the opinion of the authorities. however, the most essential thing now la that there should be no con cealed sources of Infection. For the information of the public and the stock owners In particular the De partment of Agriculture Is Issuing a revision of Its former publications on the pestilence and this pamphlet, known as Farmers Bulletin 660, "Foot-and-Mouth Dl-ease," will be sent free on application. The bulle tin contains among other things a brief description of the symptoms of the disease, in particular the charac teristic vesicles which make their ap pearance tn the mouth and about the feet. Although these vesicles are peculiar to the foot-and-mouth dis ease they soon become ruptured and contaminated by other microorgan isms to such an extent that it la fre quently difficult to ascertain their original character. There are, more over, two other diseases common In live stock, known as necrotic stomat itis and mycotic stomatitis which ef fect the mouth in a way somewhat similar to the foot-and-mouth dis ease. For this reason farmers who notice anything suspicious about their stock should report the matter at once and refrain from taking chances which may prove disastrous not only to themselves but to the whole country The history of the past six months, however, has done much to educate the public to the Importance of deal ing promptly with the disease. The first federal quarantine was declared on October 19, 1914, and since that time more than 140,000 animals have become Infected and In conse quence have been slaughtered. This loss has been divided very unequally among the 21 states and the District of Columbia, which have been affect ed. Dy far the greatest losses have been experienced in those states in which there was a widespread belief that the policy of Immediate slaugh ter of all exposed animals and rigid quarantining of all Infected districts was unnecessarily costly and trouble some. Experience, however, has confirm ed the official view that only in this way can the disease ever be eradicat ed. In certain countries In Europe, notably In Germany, the pestilence has gained such a foothold that the slaughter of exposed animals ran not be resorted to and In consequence the widespread prevalence of the pestilence is a perpetual and ex hausting drain upon the farmers re sources. In 1811, for example, it was estimated that in Germany there were d.aoo.aos came, i,oi,i sheep, i.bbb.sil nogs, ana goats suffering from the disease since me loiai numoer oi men am- nials in the United fatates is between tnree ana lour times mat in uer many tne loss to tne country wouiu be proportionately greater if the dls- ease were ever to oerome perman- ently established here. Because of the comparatively low death rate the policy of quarantining instead of slaughtering exposed ani inula has been advocated at various times, and there Is no doubt that un der certain very favorable conditions this may produce satisfactory re suits. The disease is so contagious, however, and It may be communlcat ed through so many different chan nels, that any affected animal is a constant menace to the neighbor hood. Moreover, the disappearance of all outward symptoms and the ap parent return to health Is by no means a guaranty either that the an imal may not spread the infection. Just as so-called typhoid carriers I spread typhoid among human beings, or that at any moment It may not 1 suffer a relapse ttseir. ease, mis is me sixtn iin.w' .11:1 1 n lias visited.

This avenue Is also believed to have been closed by legislation and administra tive regulations. The origin of the present out break, which Is by far the most serl ous that the country has ever expert need. Is still unknown. It has been ascertained, however, that the germ found Its way into southern Michigan and that skimmed milk from Infect ed cows was returned by a creamery to be fed to bogs. The bogs In turn v were stricken and a shlpemnt pai ing through Chicago Infected tll pens In the stockyards. Other shift v, ments of livestock passing throu&A " these pens carried the disease te ' states as far apart as Washington, and Massachusetts. The South ant t Southwest escaped because practical' ly the whole movement of stock wis ' away from and not Into these sec tions. After the discovery of the exist ence of the disease the first effort oft the part of the authorities was t trace all the shipments from Chic go, round up and slaughter the posed stock, and quarantine the tiona Into which they had been ta en. These measures appeared t check effectually the spread of (ky disease, but they Inevitably caused much disturbance and Indirect lot to farmers and stockmen. As sooa as the conditions appeared to war rant It, therefore, a more general movement of livestock ias permit ted. It was found, however, that la certain Instances shipments of stock from sections where the disease had been prevalent spread the contagion once more and It became necessary to Institute fresh quarantines tn a) number of sections. Opposition ttf the policy of Immediate slaughter al so developed In some states, hinder Ing and delaying the work of killing the exposed animals. This opposl tlon, however, has now disappeared with the result that the disease If more thoroughly under control that at any previous time. Pamous Minstrels Coming Honest endeavor will always be crowned with success. No doubt thlt Is the reason why Richards ft Prin gle's Famous Georgia Minstrels hav been so long before the public. Tff make this season better than last, f give the public a better show thta year than last, has always been til watchword of the management. Worn-out Ideas, shabby wardrobe and questionable acts hare netef found a place in their program. These methods may succeed for a time, but the American people kit too intelligent to tolerate It for long. Not a questionable word, act or aonff can find place in the performance given by this company. Heads of families often hesitate to take thelf mothers, sisters, wives or children te a minstrel show for thta reason, bat they need have no fear to take them to a performance given by this com pany. The program is absolutely clean and refined. This company, which numbers nearly thirty people, will be seen at Phelan opera ho OS on Monday, May 10. . Bring the children out to see the big free street parade at noon. 21-H-5488 CHADRON NORMAL NOTES Chadron, Nebr.. April 21 Oladyi Sewrlght and Wllma Jeffers spent Sunday at Hot Springs.
