Is playing huvoc among the hoga and sheep ia various sections of the state, according to letters received by the Hoseburg au thorltiea this inorninK- Tbe dUeaae confines itself to these two classes of livestock and is especially bud in I iheep. It spreads rapidly and the miietwrit of Uouglaa County are asked to report any case of the mal ady that may develop in this section Because of the seriousness of the disease, thousands of animals may be killed unless it can he checked with iu a short time. The disease first appears in the form of lesions around the mouth and on the lps In the region of ihe hoof tup. These lesions reach an ex cessive growth and develop a proud flesh condition. In lambs and young pigs the mouths are so affected that the animals cannot suck and starv ing results. The flocks of lambs are also affected by this disease. In the treatment of this uleerous condition. Dr. Simms. of O. A.t. td vises the use of a four per cent )intment made of one part of lysol and 24 parts of vaseline. The af fected parts should be 'frequently bathed with a lysol wash and then this ointment applied As this disease Is appearing and causing much loss in other sections of the state, the farmers of Douglas County are advised to be on the. Igniting from a furnace in the basement, fire at about 10 o'clock last Saturday night destroyed the beautiful dwelling of Dr. and Mrs. It. M. Hrumfield, which was located in Alexander's Addition, some dis tance southwest of the city limits. The contents of the home were also dest ruyed, as was a tern porary garage which .stood a few yards from the burned building. Dr. Drumfteld stated, today that the members of his family retired shortly after o clock and mat he , watch for anv of the above avion- fell asleep a few minutes later. At I toms an(j to report the appearance of uooui auu ocioi-K, ur. nrumiif iu t ,no 8Hme immediately to the coutitv said, his wife was awakened by theHnta crackling of flames and informed . ... 0 . him of her suspicions. Thinking that j the reports came from a rireplace DAV CffillTC WftT ADMV which had been kindled earlier In i DIM OlVUIj II VI ARlTII the evening. Dr. liiumtield assured his wife that there was no occasion for alarm. She insisted that she heard the crackling of flames, how ever, and Dr. Rrumfield finally de cided to get out of bed and investi gate. As he opened the door leading from the bed chamber into the living room, he was met by a cloud of ' smoke which at that time filled the entire house. Realizing the impend ing danger, Mrs. Hrumfield took two of the children and hurriedly left the -burning structure. The third child, which had left its bed during the contusion nnd wandered into an other part of the dwelling, was after ward located by the father PUPIIS, SAYS PATRON IN STAIEMENT MADE TODAY An erroneous and somewhat harm ful supposition that the Hoy Scouts organization. is for the purpose of en couraging military instincts is com bated iu the following statement by Dr. A. C. Seely, who was recently placed in charge of the publicity lor the local troop. Dr. Seely, as well as many other prominent men in this city who are acquainted with the or ganization's ideals and purposes, be- and I lieves Ibat every boy within the age linrits should belong. The statement follows: "There is a prevalent idea that the Boy Scouts are a military organiza tion and are In process of prepara tion for the army. Nothing could be further from the truth. The council tne ! desires to impress this fact firmly in upon the parents. The lioy Scouts is an organization of hoys from lin age of 12 to IX yearn and is for the purpose of teaching them self re liance; educating them to take prop er care of their bodies, and training them Jo be useful citizens. A boy to be a member must be clean; he neither swears, uses tobacco, ttor drinks lit) uor. I f yo ur boy ca n qualify, he ought to he a member taken from a window. Having lit tle conception of what was in pro gress the child then went around the house and was attempting to enter the rear door of the burning struc ture when rescued by Dr. Hrumfield for the second time. The child wa- then plaeed in a barn, while father returned to the dwelling in hope of saving some of the contents Although he ' took desperate chances. Dr. Hrumfield was able to save only a couple of cedar chests containing a small amount of cloth ing and a few other articles of minor value. An automobile, which was in the garage ut the time of the fire was saved. The dwelling occupied by Dr. and Mrs. Hrumfield was erected about five years ago and cost in the neigh borhood of $5500. It was strictly modern and was equipped with all the latest appliances attendant to a comfortable and well appointed home. Dr. Hrumfield carried 4uiii Insurance on the dwelling, but this policy was made payable to the Hose burg Building & Loan Association to Insure the payment of money bor rowed by him at the time the build ing was erected. Insurance in the sum of $1700 was also carried by Dr. Hrumfield on his furniture. Per sons who have been entertained at the Hrumfield home recently declare j rom trie lurmsnings were very eiaooraie and cannot be replaced for less than $:tniM(. A baby grand piano which Dr. Hrumfield purchased only a imrt time ago was among the fur nishings destroyed. It is Dr. Hrum tield's opinion that his furniture, draperies and other articles which were burned cost approximately $:, 500. As soon as the fire was discovered an alarm was sent to the fire station and the fire truck responded cause of the distance from the city to the Hrumfield home and the total I lack of fire protection in that sec-' tion, no attempt was made to sub due the flames by the firemen. A barn situated some distance from the burned dwelling was saved by neigh bors, who came to the assistance of the unfortunate family. Dr. Hrum field stated this morning that he would probably rebuild, although a definite decision would not be reached for several days. Almost without sufficient clothes, Mrs. Hrumfield and her three child ren were taken to the home of rela tives In the city where they will re main until other quarters can be se cured. Dr. Hrumfield saved a suit of clothes and a few articles of Jew elry which mere on the bureau. Dr. Hrumfield has undoubtedly had his share of troubles during the ; , past two years. His wife was first. Nr.AI, SKIN stricken with illness and it wast Painful eczema RAILROAD AGENTS WERE IN ROSEBURG SUNDAY OREGON IS SURPRISE Alvin D.
