No Rabies Patients At State
V1niyerSity

For the first time since its establish
ment two years ago, there are no rabies
patients taking the treatment for the
prevention of hydrophobia at the state
hygienic laboratory at the University
of Wisconsin. The last patient finished
the treatment last week. A year ago.
in March, 1911, there were Is patients
at the laboratory, the next to the
largest number ever being treated at
the laboratory at one time. In
January. 1910, 10 persons were taking
the Pasteur treatment. These fgul es
completely disprove the old belief that
more dogs go mad in summer than in
winter and that person bitten by a
dog during the winter months need
have no fear of hpdrophobia.
