JOHN D. GIVES
100000 FOR
ANIMAL ILLS

NEW YORK, April S.-The Rookie
Teller Institute for Medical Research
has announced that John d. Rookie
Teller has donated a $1,O000O0 fund
for the study Of animal diseases, and
that James J. Hill has pledged $4,000
for the investigation of hog cholera
The announcement reads.
THE Rockefeller Institute has here
tofore confined it's investigations to
the study Of the fundamental prob
lens of biological science and to in
vestigations in the field Of human
diseases
Animal diseases are as impor-
tant. not only because Of their eco
nomic significance but because Of
their close relationship 70 human dis
eases
THE loss to the country entalled
by animal diseases is to be calcu-
lated not only in terms OF animals
destroyed, but with reference to the
discouraging effects on enterprise IN
animal husbandry which such cpl
denies as the recent epidemic OF hog
cholera, always exert
1T has been estimated that in the
Northwest alone hog cholera has
killed 500 900, 900 worth of swine dur
ing the last year.
IN the history of medical science
the work of Pasteur on anthrax and
the more recent observations in this
country on Texas fever in cattle
which opened the door to present
knowledge concerning insect carriers
Of malaria, yellow fever and other
diseases, are conspicuous illustrations
Of the value OF studies on animal dis
eases.
"The Rockefeller Institute has, ac-
cordingly, decided to extend its work
so as to include research in this
fold
