(From a 8tau correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Feb. 13.-l8peclal.)-atate Vet
erinarian Thorn has Just discovered a
dlreaee In horsea heretofore unheard of In
Nebraaka that la causing the death of a
number of animals In the neighborhood of
Bassett. He was called upon to examine
a colt. The colt died and the doctor held a
post-mortem examination and found that
the caecum, one of the Intestines, was
filled with little worms, Imbedded In a cir
cular shape. 8ome of the circles were no
larger than a pin head, though there were
thousands of them In the Intestine. While
It Is not uncommon for parasites to be
found In horses this Is the first time In the
hlittory of the state, so far as known, that
anything like this case has ever been found.
The effect on the horse attacked Is to cause
general debility and a wasting away until
death. A number of horsea that were not
examined have died In the same neighbor
hood with symptoms similar to those of
the colt.
Dr. Thomas will take his specimen to
Kansas City tomorrow, where on Monday
he will exhibit It at a meeting of the Mis
souri Valley Veterinary association. It Is
said the first time anything of the kind was
ever heard of was In Bcotland many years
ago,' and the old textbooks contain pic
tures of the worms as found by Dr.
Thomas.' Just what cauaes the worms Is
Unknown and how to get rid of them Is a
question that is yet to be studied out.
Whether the disease was brought to the
state or whether It was caused by some
thing the animal ate Is another question
that will have to be looked after by the
doctors. In the neighborhood where the
disease was found the land Is sandy and
water la close to the surface, but whether
this had anything to do with starting the
disease Is yet unknown

Otoe 20
Nemaha 17

erally believed that Congressman Burkett
wilt be renominated without opposition.

SCHUYLER. Neb., Feb. 13.-(Speolal.)-After
being Idle for three years I hi Ne
braska chicory factory will attempt to
resume operations this season. The tourd
of directors has decided to off r to contrnct
with the, farmers for chicory roo's at 510
per ton. Formerly $7.60 per ton whs paid
and many farmers tried to raise them, but
often with poor success, mainly bechuyc of
unpropltlous seasons. Lately there have
been numerous calls upon the company tor
chlckory. products at prices that wo'.ild
have made good mone,y. Prices were for
merly so low that the business did not
prosper and was Anally told under execu
tion and bought In by seven directors, who
were on the company's paper, at a cost of
$6,760. The plant cost $12,C0O.
This year there Is a good prospect that
the factory will be able to run ot a profit,

Intereat In the offer of the board of di
rectors, believing that they can well afford
to raise the plants at $10 per ton.
