We don't know what the cause is or . * whether it was imported with west- ern or Sioux 3ity cattle but since it exists the question arises how to get o > rid of it.

J.C. saves the cattle , A number of cattle C.s J. s i , in the w-estern part of the county u have peen treated successfully in 1) this way and those having cattle I afflicted in this way would do well to ? r. try Chloro Naptholeum.
