In Tuesday's issue it was stated that Henry Gelse, a well-to-do far mer living northeast of Maxwell, had painted a German ling black and whlto colors on a pleco of tin, tncko(i It to a polo and placed It on the cupola of his barn. This information came through Messrs. Knapp and Jor gensen, of Maxwell, who stated thaf they had visited tho Gelsn farm, had gone within fifty feet of tho bam, and described tho black and white emblem. The publication of tho Item naturally attracted attention, and a committee of Brady people visited the Qeise farm Wednesday to ascertain the facts. At noon yesterday Win. Bentty and T. T. Mnrcott, who woro mem bitrH fo tho Brady commltteo who vis ited the Goise farm, accompanied by Mr. Gelse, called at The Tribune office, bringing with them tho flog. In stead of biding Ipainted black "and white, It has red, white and bluo bars running up and down, the bluo being a very dark, and tho red rather lyrown ish, through exposure to tho weather. Instead of being a Gremlin sym pathizer, Mr. Gciso is a loynl Amer ican supporter, ns testified to by Messrs. Bentty and Mnrcott. Not hav ing an American ling he painted on'; iib best lie could to show his patrio tism. He left Germany to oscapo the militarism that ho detested, and landed in this country pf-nnlless; now ho owns a ranch of .'t.000 acres. I'ndor llimc conditions, Mr. Goise snys, he (mild not he anything but n patriotic American. We regret tho publication of til" finlclo and are only too glad to innko the correction. I'laced on tho top of a high barn such as Mr. Geiso's, Hie blue could easily havo been mistaken for blacK by Messrs. Knapp and Jorgensen; In fait Mi.

Of all cattlo dlscnscB, Blacltlog fa perbnps tho most dreaded. Tho po cullar thing about It Is tho fact that It nlmost Invnrlnbly attacks tho best unlmnlB. A fat. Bleok, thriving calf tllieae i will succumb where a thin, scrawny, lll iiouriBhcd ono la not affected. Tho disease makes its nppenranco with a su'ldenneBB that la astounding and runs Its course In a correspondingly short length of time. A calf may ho perfectly well and honlthy ono day; show signs of Blackleg tho following morning and bo dead by night. Considering theso facts It la no wonder that tho dlaeaso is much dreaded.
