Abstract
The first report of a fatal disease of cattle of unknown etiology in Pictou county, Nova Scotia, appeared in 1880 (1), although the disease had existed for a number of years previously. By September 1881, 1396 animals had been lost, 203 of which had died during the current season (2). Duncan McEachran, principal of the Montreal Veterinary College and an inspector in the Canada Department of Agriculture since 1879 (3), was appointed by the Minister of Agriculture to investigate the disease, and his initial findings were reported in the following year (4). The clinical signs included depression, emaciation, reduced yield of bitter tasting milk, diarrhea, and terminal nervous signs. Death generally occurred within 1 mo of the onset of clinical signs. On postmortem examination the carcass was emaciated with an excess of peritoneal fluid, the abomasum and intestines showed sub-mucosal edema with ulceration, and the liver was firm and pale.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
