It has remained for horse doctor to make discovery of great value to the medical profession. A London dispatch says that Mir. Allen, a Dub- lin veterinarian, has discovered that ordinary turpentine is an antidote to carbolic acid. Recently a we'll known chemical expert in Dublin tested the efficacy of the antidote on a dog. A dose of carbolic acid was first admin istered, and when all the ordinary symptoms of carbolic poisoning had been developed, oil of turpentine was applied, and the dog recovered within short time. A curious thing about the discovery is that it was due more or less to an accident. Mir. Allen had some horses in his isestablishment which were suffering from carbolic poisoning, and he asked for oil to be applied as an antidote. It was only when the ef- fects were found to be so unexpected ly successful that it was discovered that it was turpentine that had been administered. A few days after a blacksmith who was unconscious from the effects of carbolic poisoning was treated similarly, with satisfactory results.-PhOenix Republican.
The Coconino sun., 1904-05-21

Last year scientific circles were agi- tated over mosquitoes, and some of the government entomologists incu- bated much literature regarding their destruction that they inoculate human beings with fever germs. The mos- quito still thrives and manages to get in his work. There has recently ar rived in New Orleans from Cuba a consignment of 600 live mosquitoes, en route to St. Louis. They are for the purpose of demonstrating the trans mission of yellow fever germs. They are kept in cage and fed on sugar and water. Their eggs are matched in a short time and the species is kept in existence in this way, since the young est take the place of those which die. It is assumed that microbes are be- queathed.
