ANTHRAX MENACE TO
HEALTH OF LIVESTOCK
Reports during the past year seem
to indicate that the deadly disease,
anthrax, is spreading anew, appear
ing in freBli territories and in some
cases causing severe losses.
Livestock owners should familiar- i
lie themselves with the character
istics of this disease, for it not only |
affects all farm animals, but human :
beings as well. Cattle are its most
frequent victims. If a steer is !
found dead in the pasture some
morning, as though struck by light
ning, anthrax may be cause. In
its acute form, anthrax can kill an I
animal in the twinkling of an eye, 1
without any previous evidence of
illness. In other cases, it causes
staggering, spasms, and stupor be
fore death. If a! farm animal dies
and anthrax is suspected, the car
cass should not be opened, but a
veterinarian should be called at
once to determine the cause of
death, and to protect the rest of the
herd if this deadly disease proves
to be present.
Anthrax is caused by a germ
which inhabits the soil, sometimes
remaining in the ground for years,
in the spore stage. It is most fre
quently picked up by cattle grazing
on overflow pastures, or on dry
land after a drouth. Animals which
have thus picked up the germ can
readily pans it on to other animals
throughout the farm. Human be
ings can contract the disease In
handling animals which have died

of It. This is why carcass dis
posal in anthrax cases is generally
a subject of official sanitary regu
lations.
In areas where anthrax is a
threat, it is fortunately possible to
immunize animals against this dis
ease in advance of an outbreak.
There are several types of effective
vaccines which confer sound im
munity, if given before the disease
attacks.

DO THEY REALLY?
“Ingratitude, Thau Marble-Hearted
Fiend!”
Trampling feet, the sound of
drums, a voice of command—soldiers
are marching by—a nation pays a
debt to its dead, and does honor
to their memory. Throughout the
land, monuments serve to recall the
valor of those distinguished heroes,
the men “who never came back”.
But the monuments alone are mute
things; they cannot voice sufficient
ly a nation’s feelings! it takes
something external to do that. So
on Memorial Day, year after year,
the young who follow after the old
who remained behind, offer tribute
to our war dead in parades. Arm
istice Day also we again publicly
say “Thank you” and re-dedicate
ourselves and our nation to the
cause of world peace.
It is necessary to give outward
expression of our appreciation to
our soldier dead, and it is also
reasonable that we honor God in
a manifest manner. He has been
our lifelong guide and protector.
Our trust in Him certainly has not
been in vain.
Instinct demands that our grati
tude and honor to God should be
expressed outwardly. It is not suf
ficient merely to think of God. We
have bodies too, that are as much
dependent on Him as our minds.
The body must cooperate in giving
honor to God; it must help in ex
pressing gratitude for the gifts He
has given; it must show sentiments
of sorrow when we have betrayed
Him by sin.
In the Catholic Church the Sac
rifice of the Mass is one means
whereby God is publicly, and, so to
speak, officially honored. The priest
offers this Sacrifice in the name of
the people as their representative.
Through the petitions he presents
in their name, the people adore
God, thank Him for favors received,
ask Him for pardon for past of
fenses and for new blessings.
Through the Mass they express
publicly the honor we owe to God,
but St. Paul says: “By Him
(Christ) we have access ... to the
Father. Now therefore you are no
more strangers and foreigners, but
fellow citizens with the saints and
companions of God ... in whom
you are also built together into a
habitation of God in the Spirit”
(Eph. 2, 18-22).
In the Mass we believe that we
continue the sacrifice of Christ
Himself, the most acceptable sacri
fice of the redemption in which we,
as members of Christ, are permitted
to join ourselves to Him.
If you desire further information
on the Sacrifice of the Mass, or
have any question to ask about the
Catholic Church, please write to:
