While the death loss is not excessive,
the mortality being comparatively low i
taut tact that no immunity is develop- j
eu by one or more attacks makes it i
necessary to destroy all animals that | ^
come in contact with the disease. I -
.foot-and-mouth disease is propagat- j
ed by a specific virus, and every out- j ;
break starts irom some pre-existing |
outbreak, although investiagtors have;
as yet been unable to isolate the spec
ific organism causing the disease.
The piesent outbreak which is re
ported to have been brought to the San
Francisco Bay district by ocean trans
ports probably from the Orient, and
originating in garbage fed to hogs at
the docks, marks the seventh outbreak
in the United States. The previous out
breaks occurred in 1870, 1880, 1884,
1902, 1908 and 1914. The losses in the j
1914 epidemic cost over ten million
doilais to eradicate, while it is report- 1
ed that the recent outbreak in Great
Britain has cost that country $15,000,-!
000.
Because of the rapid spread of the!
contagion by means ol' infected cars, ]
hay or other feed, all contacts are at
once destroyed, covered with air-slak
ed lime and buried, and all premises
thoroughly disinfected. Even though
most of the animals would recover,
they would still be virus carriers for
weeks and months, and they are not
immune from other attacks .
In from three to six days or even
longer after the exposure of the ani
mal to the infection the disease makes
its appearance. It is usually first in
dicated by the animal suffering a chill,
quickly followed by an invasion of
fever which may cause the tempera
ture to rise as high as 106 deg. These
symptoms may be present in a slight
form and escape notice.
Following this in one or two days
small vesticles or blisters about the
size of hemp seed or peas put in an
appearance on the mucous membrane
of the mouth at the border and on the
upper surface of the tongue near the
tip, the inside of the cheeks, or the
gums and the inner surface of the
lips, or on the margin of the dental
pad. Soon after this there is a swell
ing and a tenderness manifested in
the feet, at the coronet and between
the digits of each foot. Eruptions sim
ilar to those in the mouth appear a
day or two later.
As so in as the disease is well es
tablished the animal evidences pain
when attempting to eat ^finally refus
ing food, and uneasily opens and shuts
its mouth with a cha»acteristic smack
ing sound.
With the advance of the disease, the
vesticles widen sometimes as large as
a half dollar, which burst and heal.
The disease sometimes attacks the in
ternal organs before making its ap
pearance on the external tissues, and
such cases tre very liable to prove fa
ta' ,the animal dying of paralysis of
the heart or throat.
The duration of the ordinary attack
is from ten to twenty days when re
covery of the appetite takes place, but
the return to flow of milk in the case
of milk cows ,is seldom witnessed un
til the next season. In the malignant
type it requires from three months of
a year for the animal to recover. The
disease is mote fatal in young animals
fed on infected milk, death being caus
ed by gastroenteritis.
SPRING VERY BACKWARD
IN WASILLA DISTRICT
Duke Stubbs, well known Alaskan,
writing from Wasilla, states that the
spring is very backward, no geese or
ducks having been seen, and no
muskrats out yet.
Mr. Stubbs states that his foxes
mated very late this year.
He also approves of the way Dep
uty Marshal Staser tied in to condi
tions at the sanitarium at Morning
si.de.
