STRANGE MALADYIS ORANGE.-The
Orange Observer says: Many valuable
dogs are dying in the Somerset neigh
borhood of some occult malady, at
tended sometimes by symptoms of
rabies. The tongues and Threats swell
till it is impossible for them to either
eat or drink, and no measure Of care
or attention has been equal to saving
the life of any dog attacked. And re-
Gently there have been thoroughly au
thenticated cases of rabies in that
neighborhood among the hogs, Mr.. r.
III. Newman having lost two. one of
which died and the other was promptly
killed. 1t has also appeared among
the cattle and sheep in another locality
not far off. and in every case the vic
tins died or had to be killed. 1t is
high time the matter was investigated
by veterinary surgeon-but our gov
ernmental agricultural departments,

costly side shows, the people paying
the piper aud yet not dancing TO their
