Deer Scourge Near Mountain Rock Faces Penalty Dilemma
Two wild deer near Mountain Rock show foot and mouth symptoms alarming nearby cattle. Dr. W S Eaton observed the lame animals and mouth drip but refrained from killing them due to heavy penalties for deer murder. He will report to authorities as farmers call for removing the threat. Deer roam near Goward and Andrews farms where about 25 cattle were sickened, believed to have contracted the disease from the deer. The outbreak traces to Brighton, where cattle were bought by Andrews and Goward. Farmers vow to keep livestock under lock and key until deer are captured or shot.
