Encourage Skating.
(WaterburY Republican. \

Skating days are at hand and young and old will seek every opportunity to enjoy this most healthful and pro- fitable exercise. Waterbury has given much attention to the requirements of the children in the eastern section of the city and has most carefully and properly provided an excellent skating place at Hamilton park. There will be many days and evenings when the facilities of this resort will be over taxed after the crop of Christmas skates come into use and such other places os may conveniently and with out expense be put at the disposal of the public Should be made avail able.
 The northwestern section of the city might be made happy if tho use of the city's property on Cooke street. the old reservoir, were opened to skat- CTS but it seems inadvisable to permit skating there except in extremely cold weather. There are many springs in the pond and it freezes reluctantly for that reason. It has deep holes and should the city throw it open to the public for skating purposes it would like to feel that even the reckless and the thoughtless skater would be safe from danger of death by drowning. Perhaps the city could be assited by the Highland park or some other i'm provement society in finding plan by which this city property might he put to some good use, but as skat- ing place the Cooke street reservoir is hardly to be recommended in it's present condition. Nominations of ere in order.

DISEASE CARRIED
 TO STOCK BY DOGS
Farmers Warned to Properly Con.
 trol and Care for CanineS

Washington, D. C., Dec. 14.-The dog in the country is a useful and pleasant adjunct to the farm if he is properly controlled and cared for, but FwhAp neglected, may readily become B carrier of disease to stock, in addi- ton to gaining opportunity to kill sheep and destroy gardens and other property. Dog ordinances, as a gen. eral rule, have been intended chiefly to curb the dogs power of doing harm by attacking, biting, killing or run tning sheep or stock. The part that he plays as a carrier of diseases to <aniqals only recently has been recog- nized, acording to the zoologists of the Department of Agriculture, who be- lieve that when this is better under stood rural ordinances and laws which lessen this danger will gain the support of the community.
 Of the diseases carried to stock by dogs, the foot-and-mouth disease is probably of the greatest interest at this time. In this case the dog acts as a mechanical carrier of infection. The dog which runs across an infected farm easily may carry in the dirt on his feet the virus of this most con- tagious of animal diseases to other farms and thus spread the disease 70 hhe herds. Tn infected localities it is absolutely essential, Therefore, to keep all dogs chained hnd never to allow them off the farm except on leash.
 Many Other Maladies.
 There are, however, many other naladies in the spread of which the hog takes an active part. In Bulle- in 26O of the United States Depart bnent of Agriculture, "The Dog as a sarrier of Parasites and Disease" it s pointed out that rabies, hydatid, kingworm, favus, double-pored tape vorm, roundworm, and tongueworm re often conveyed to human beings
 this way. It occasionally happens
New Britain herald., 1915-12-14

also that the dog helps f1eas and ticks in transmitting bubonic plague or the deadly spotted fever.
 Hydatid disease is caused by the presence in the liver, kidneys, brain, lungs and other organs, of a bladder worm or larval tapeworm. Bladder worms are often as large as an or ange and may be larger. A dog which is allowed to feed on carrion or the raw viscera of slaughtered anil mals may eat all or part of a blad- der worm containing numerous tape worm heads. These tapeworm heads develop into small segmented tape worms in the intestines of the dog. The tapeworm in turn develop eggs which are passed out in the excre-
