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.
