DISEASE SPKEUfi IN WEST
Veterinarians from Dakota and Iowa
Making Inquiries.
SEEKING TO DISCOVER REMEDY
Dr. Bostrom Says So Call for Aid
Cam Be Anaweredd Until Some
War to Test Malady la
Found Oat.
(From a Staff Correspondent,)

of hundreds : of homes is spreading
throughout tne wst is eviaencea oj urn
Inquiries coming to State Veterinarian
Bostrom. Yesterday he received a tele
phone call from Dr. Baxby of Clarlnda,
la., asking about the symptoms of the
disease. Or. Bostrom asked him to de
scribe the disease that bad shown itself
there and then told him that it was the
same fatal malady that was carrying off
the horses of Nebraska. Dr. Haxby has
had three cases and feels confident that
Iowa will have to join in the fight to
prevent the spread of the disease.
Another inquiry regarding the disease
came this morning from Barber Broth
ers, . veterinarians at Hyndel, B. D. The
symptoms shown there Indicate that the
disease has also struck the state on the
north and that it may reach great pro
portions before it can be checked.
Germ Carried la Air.
" When asked this . morning what he
thought was responsible for the disease
In Nebraska, Dr. Bostrom said: "So far
none of the cities and larger towns has
been afflicted with' anything of the kind,
but the cases so far seem to have been
where the animals have been in the pas
tures. This would indicate that It is
confined to the country and I have about
come to the conclusion that the germ
for the disease Is carrld in the air. A
great deal of our winds the last few
weeks have been from the south, where
the disease has been prevalent. -1 take
it that the germ has been carried by the
wind and dust and deposited In water
tanks. , Some' of the time these' tanks
may not have been abundantly supplied
with . water and the animals have been
compelled to drink from 'water near the
bottom of the tanks, where the germ
may have settled and lodged. In this
way they have taken the germ into their
systems and the result Is what we
have."
: Searching for Remedy.
"I gather this opinion from the fact
that In places where horses have re
ceived their water from city wells which
have. not. had a chance, to become con
taminated on account of , their closed
condition, the disease has not shown It
self. I have many letters urging me, to
come to different places and do some
thing, but I feel that we must first
Jlscover 'some remedy to stop the dls-
' ease before taking any more time to try
Rnd prevent it. A way must be dis-
covered and we are spending money and
putting in long, hours trying to discover
some, remedy which will balk the further
a-nraarilncr nt ' tha HIhahjz anA until v
discover that It Is not much use to try
to doctor a horse for something we have
nothing yet discovered to successfully
i combat. We hope after the meeting
thsl week with the government experts,
five of whom will be sent here Thurs
day, that we lit be In a position to meet
the proposition hich confronts . us and
prevent further spread of the malady." .
- 8toras;e of Gasoline, i
, According , to - Fire Commissioner . Ran
dall, M per cent of the gasoline kept !n
tanks above the ground evaporates, while
If the tanks are, underground very, little
be wasted. "A great many of the fires
are responsible to the careless storage of
gasoline," said Mr. Randall this morn
ing, "and nearly every day I receive let
ters telling me of the chances people are
taking with this, useful, but at the, same
time very dangerous, artrcle'.T" I know
of one $200,000 fire that was started be
cause of gasoline stored in a tank above
the ground." - Mr. Randall leaves today
to investigate a fire in a certain town
, which was started through the -careless
' storage of gasoline. v

RYDER WANTS DOZEN MORE
MOTORCYCLE POLICEMEN
Police Commissioner Ryder says he
could use at least twelve new motorcycle
police. At present there are four.

whether the applicant could ride a motor-
cycle.
A dozen or more men on the force would
make good motorcycle men, says the po
lice commissioner, and as they are needed
he may seek some way of securing them.

and can stand it." .

of the old troubles began to show again, they found it difficult to return to "Wellville.
