THINGS ABOUT RABIES
AeRl. COLLEGE ADVICE

Press Bulletin No. SIS, North Dakota
Experiment Station. issued by DR.. L.
Van Els on rabies or hydrophobia. gives
a description of the actions of the
different animals when affected, as
we'll as how to prevent it.
In case of being bitten by a mad dog
or other affected animal the method Of
procedure is given as follows:
1. The wound caused by the bite,
should be permitted to bleed freely,
as this is liable to wash away part or
all of the virus present. Do not cover
the wound by bandaging etc., unless
the bleeding is excessive. The wound
should be Immediately cared for by a
surgeon.
2. When a dog bites a person, do
not Immediately reduce the offending
animal to fragments by means of shot
guns, clubs. etc.
3. If possible secure the dog (Which
in most cases is best done by the own
cry and confine- him in an enclosure for
the purpose of observation. A real rabid
dog will show some features by which
the suspicion will be either confirmed or
proved ~ungrounded in not more than a
week or ten days.
4. II the suspicion seems to be con-
firmed by future developents (the spon-
taneous death of the dog being a most
important n { remove the head and
ship it to the nearest laboratory where
it a be properly examined.
In the state such examinations are
made by the Department of Veterinary
Science. Agricultural College. N. D.,
and by the Public Health Laboratory,
University, N. D.
S. In the ase of the biting being
done by a suspicious stray dog. the lat
ter may be killed in order not to lose
the only evidence by which rabies can
be proven or disproven. In such a
case the killing must be done without
damaging the head, as otherwise the
very material necessary for the labora-
tory examination may be destroyed.
When sending the dogs head or even
the entire animal to a laboratory. have
the specimen accompanied by a descrip-
ton of all the circumstances accom-
panying the case not only to facilitate
the examination but especially to add to
the information regarding the disease.
7. Most laboratories have only time
for work of urgent necessity, so do not
send in dogs heads merely for curios-
ity's sake. Confine yourself to cases
where there are good reasons for wishing
to find out about the presence or absence
of rabies. Always state whether or not
a person was bitten by the animal in
volved.
8. Send the materials as soon after
death as possible. Wrap it in a cloth

In memory of Mrs. Brainerd Lane,
who entered into rest July 2, 1912.
She hath entered into the shadow land,
She hath crossed to the other shore
Her gentle greeting and friendly hand
On earth we shall meet no more.
In the midst of the summer beauty and
flowers,
A messenger came one day,
And lovingly, yet with stern command,
He beckoned her spirit away.
She readily answered the summons then
And folding upon her breast
The dear mother hands whose work
was done,
She quietly sank to rest.
Closed are the eyes with their tender
light,
Closed on this earth for aye;
But opened in realms of pure delight,
Whose beauties shall e'er decay.
We shall see her no more while we larry
here
Till the end of our earthly way,
But we know she is waiting to greet us
there
In the land of eternal day.

Many counties in Kentucky are

Many counties in Kentucky are es-
tablishing moonlight schools and
especially adapting them to the par
ticular needs and problems of the people
within their boundaries. Other States
are sure to follow the example set by
Kentucky. Some will meet with less
success and some will fail; successes
and failures both are very sure to lead
into the pioneer paths that must be
trod in any radical onward and upward
movement for the welfare of the people.
Very certain it is that the broad safe
highway leading out of ignorance and
superstition to useful and enlightened
lives is sure to be built, and within the
next ten years will be laid the founda-
ton of complete system of public
education adjusted to the needs of rural
America.
Next year, not only will the ignorant
be allowed the privilege of moonlight
schools, but school trustees, magis-
trates, country merchants, and preach
ers with their wives and relatives have
pleaded for admission to the classes.
These schools might serve as an ex-
ample to other rural communities whose
people are remote from learning.
The effect of the Rowan night schools
on the social life of the county is ad-
mirable. The uncommon sch, oil asso-
Citations seem to develop spirit of good
fellowship before unknown, welding
whole communities in sympathy and
real nelghborliness. The demand for
books has also greatly increased in the
Moonlight School" districts and the
circulation of periodicals is far greater.
