MeasIy Mutton

The Bureau of Animal indust-
ry of the United States, Depart
ment of Agriculture has called
attention quite recently to the
extensive occurrence of sheep
measles, due to a species of tape.
worm derived from sheep dogs.
More than 1900 of the sheep
slaughtered under federal super
vision during the year 1912 prior
to December l, were found to be
affected with "measles," and we
are assured that as the methods
of meat inspection become more
efficient the number of cases
detected will be relatively more
numerous.
theoretically, there is no objec-
tion from the hvgienic stand
point, according to governm ont
information, to passing effected
mutton for food after the para
sites have been removed. No
great harm can be done if
q few parasites hidden in the
muscles have escaped observa-
ton; therefore, the stringent
regulations pertaining to infested
beef or pork need not apply to
mutton. The esthetic sense of
consumers, however, as well
as the current temperament in
regard to such matters, tends to.
ward the insistence on rigid
enforcement of strict inspection
and condemnation provisions
The logical way, Therefore, tt
avoid the large monetary losses
thereby involved will be to in
stitute more rigid methods Of
prevention, beginning with The
dogs on the sheep-ranches.

Scared the Lion.

In Hunting the Elephant In
Africa" the author, Captain @.
FL. Stigand, In telling some lion
stories, admits that there is a
certain thrill in connection with
the king of the jungle. The So
malls say that a lion makes you
jump three times-frst, when
you hear him roar; secondly,
when you Unexpectedly meet his
spoor, and thirdly, when you first
sight him. They say that even
bold man is thus frig htened three
times by a lion, but after the
sudden shock of seeing him is
over he is no longer afraid. And
in this connection he tells us
good story of female heroism:
cat a village near Fort Mango
che, also in Nyasaland, a man
was sitting one night at the door
of his hut drumming while his
wife was cooking food inside.
The hut was an isolated one, be-
ing several hundred yards from
the rest of the village.
"Suddenly the woman heard
the man call out, "A lion has got
me- She took a burning fagot
from the fire, ran out and smack
ed the lion in the face. The as
tonished animal let go, and she
dragged her husband into the hut
and hastily put up the poles
which form the door. The man
died in few minutes after, and
the woman sat there with the
dead body.
"Presently the lion returned
and scratched gently on the door.
This he repeated several times
till it got on the woman's nerves.
At last she could stand it no
longer, so she took another fagot
from the fire, unbarred the door
and fled to the village, leaving
the dead man. The lion then
walked into the hut and took
him."

Rejection and EnlistmentS In
the ARMY

According to the Army and
Navy Journal, the total number
of applicants for enlistment in
the Army during 1918 in the Eas-
tern, Middle, Southern and Yves.
tern sections of the United States
was as follows: In Chicago, H.
900, with 9,342 reflections, or 1874
per cent. of reflections: in New
York, II, 055, with 1888 rejec-
tions, percentage of 500; in Sa-
vannah, New Orleans and Little
Rock, 1856, with SOIL reflections
a percentage of ISL; at San Fran
cisco, 5,5O4, with 4,443 reflections
percentage of reflections ofS0.7.
1t will be seen from these fig
ures that the percentage of rejec-
tions was about the same in New
York aud San Francisco, and that
the percentage for the Southern,
section and the Middle West as
represented by Chicago was low
err than either the East or the
West, with a small fraction in ia
vor of the more northerly section.
The better showing of the Middle
West rather to be expected, tho
the margin is quite small; but
the surprising thing about all
these figures is the large percent
age of reiections in all sections
of the country. The Journal of
the American Medical Associa-
ton thinks that it does not argue
we'll for the physique and the
stamina of our young men, or
perhaps may be accounted for by
the suppositIon that the best do
not offer themselves for enlist
ment. In England, it ia said,
the physique of the average Tom
my Atkins is deteriorating, but
in a comparatively new country
like the United States, the de-
scendants of hardy pioneer stock,
reared amid abundance and IN.
der favorable health and climat.
ic conditions, should make a
much better showing.
