MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER Thursday, December 3, 1914. THE EFFECTS OF THE WAR ON TRADE. Premier Asquith looks for a groat rush of trade when the war closes, then, after four or five years, expects some years of great depression be cause of the poverty of the people and their Inability to purchase. If that Is true then he must be ex pecting that the money and securlt- les of the world will all have gravi tated to the strong vaults of the very rich, and that the business of the world will consist chiefly In col lecting from the poor the interest on the war debt This was what followed In Eng land after Waterloo, and in this country after our war of 1861-65, but in both countries the depression was not due to the debt, but to the destruction of half the money, brought around in both cases by the insidious legislation of the rich In order to make the debt perpetual and to keep the poor all the time paying the Interest. The depression in France after the Franco-Prussian war was very brief, because the so-called poor of France i went down Into their stockings and under their hearthstones, dug up the money the government needed and took their pay in Interest bear ing rents, so the taxes they paid all came back to them with interest ad ded. It seems that Germany Is im itating that example, for It has just raised $1,500,000,000, not by sell ing bonds, but by giving the people notes for the money they subscribe. The money that wars cost is not lost, but merely transfered and generally has been made to serve as an Instru ment of torture to the farmer, the small and great manufacturer the producer on any line, and used to swell the fortunes of those who do not toll and spin aught except webs like spiders and with the same In tention as the spider to catch and strangle the prosperity of those whose toll supports the nations, In that way they have drawn to themselves, since our war closed, quite as much money In Interest as there Is money In the world. It sure ly was time for a new currency law of some kind. Mr. Asquith evidently counts up on Great Britain doing most of the ocean-carrying trade of the world af ter the war. He does not think thereJ will be much rivalry, except It may be In America. At present there are no sign's of rivalry on our part, but he. must not be too sanguine. When Blsmark exacted the $1, 000,000,000 Indemnity from France, he declared that he had crushed France as a commercial rival for twenty-five years tocome, but she ral lied In thrpp vpa. and In ten vears was stronger than ever. And see what Russia has done since her exhaustive war wtth Japan! And see. especially, what little Japan has done. This surely Is our country's oppor tunity, if congress, when it meets, has the inspiration to see what is needed, and the sagacity to set the machinery in motion to accomplish it. Goodwin's Weekly. Humun Health And The Foot-And-Mouth Disease. The anxiety that has been ex pressed in several quarters In regard to the effect upon human health of the present outbreak of the foot-and-mouth disease Is regarded by Gov ernment authorities as somewhat ex aggerated. The most common fear is that the milk supply might become contaminated, but in view of the pre cautions that the local authorises In the Infected areas are very generally taking, there Is comparatively little danger of this. Milk from infected farms is not permitted to be shipped at all. The only danger, is, there fore, that before the disease ha3 man ifested itself some infected milk might reach the market. For this reason experts la the department rec ommend pasteurization. As a matter of fact, however, pasteurization is recommended by the department anyway for all milk that is not very high grade and from tuberculin-test ed cows. It has been demonstrated by ex periments which have been made in Denmark and Germany that pas teurization will serve as a safeguard against contagion from the foct-and- mouth disease just as readily as it does against typhoid fever, but in any event it must be thoroughly done the nnlk must be heated to 145 degrees F. and held at this temper ature for 30 minutes. Iu this country the foot-and-mouth disease has been so rare that there are few recorded cases of its trans mission to human beings. In 1902 a few cases were reported in New England and In 1908 in a few in stances eruptions were found In the mouths of children, which were be lieved to have been caused by con taminated milk. In both of these outbreaks the sale of milk was stop ped as soon as the disease was found among the cattle. As long therefore as the disease can bo confined by rig id quarantine to certain specified areas the danger from this source 13 very small. Should the pestilence spread all over the countrty and be come as general as it has been at various times in large areas in Eu rope, the problem would become more serious. Under any circum stances, however, pasteurization would be an efficient remedy." .Where pasteurizaztlon Is not passible and where there is any reason to suspect that the disease may exist the pro caution of boiling milk might be ad visable. Cows affected with the malignant form of the disease lose practically all of their milk. In mild cases, how ever, the decrease may be from one- third to one-half of the usual yield. The appearance of the milk also changes. It becomes thinner, bluish and poor in fat. When the udder Is affected, the milk frequently con tains coagulated fibrin and blood, so that a considerable sediment forms, while the cream is thin and of a dirty color. These changes, however, oc cur only when the disease is In an advanced stage, and, as a matter of fact, the disease is not permitted to pass into an advanced stage, as any stricken animal Is at once slaugh tered. Men who come in contact with diseased animals may also become In focted. In adult human beings the contagion causes such symptoms as sore mouths, painful swallowing, fe ver, and occasional eruptions on the hands, finger tips, etc. While caus ing considerable discomfort, how ever, the disease is rarely ssrious Where It is very prevalent among an imals, some of the authorities believe that It is fairlv eeneral amnnc hu- man belng3, but that the dlstur- Dances it causes are usuany so siigni that they are not brought to the at tention of the family physician. There is, however, a very good rea son for everyone giving the diseased animals as wide a berth as possible, namely, that otherwise they may easily carry the disease to perfectly healthy herds. Federal inspectors engaged in the work of eradicating the pestilence are thoroughly equip ped with rubber coats, hats, boots, and gloves, which may be complete ly disinfected; and others who lack this equipment are strongly urged not to allow their curiosity to induce them to become a menace to their own and neighbors' property. The disease, in short, Is danger ous because of the loss it occasions to property, and not because of Its effects upon the health of mankind. At present all infected herds are be ing slaughtered as soon as they are discovered, the carcasses burled, and the premises thoroughly disinfected. Until all danger of infection has been removed in this way, the local au thorities quarantine the milk. Those who wish additional precau tions are recommended to use pas teurized milk, but as has already been said, this recommendation holds true whether or not there is any fear of the foot-and-mouth disease.
