Des Moines, Aug. lS.-The number
of infantile paralysis cases reported
to the state board of health from all
over Iowa has averaged about two per
day for the past several days. total
Of sixty-six cases have been reported
in ALL Only five deaths have been
recorded. Three cases where recov-
cry has been complete have been re-
ported. 1t is thought, however, that
physicians are not prompt in report
ing the cases recovered so that 1t Is
possible that quite number Of the
sixty-six cases in all reported have
recovered.
1t Is observed that a larger per cent
of the cases seem to be in the rural
districts or the smaller towns. The
larger cities of Iowa have reported but
few cases. This same condition pre-
walls In Illinois, so much so that the
state board Of health of that state
comments on it in literature recently
sent out as follows:
"A remarkable recent development
in connection with the disease in this
state is the tendency to attack children
living in strictly rural localities" say
the Illinois state health officials.
Among the eighty-one active cases
in the state outside the city Of Chi
cago, thirty. three, or more than 40 per
cent, are among children residing on
farms. Since July / there have been
eighteen deaths from this disease, in
Guiding five in Chicago, mortality
rate of about9 per cent. Seventy zone
per cent Of the cases have been among
children under years of age, but
adults have not entirely escaped, rone
case occurring in an adult "a years OF
age another in person 10 years old.
Between the two sexes the cases have
been divided about equally" IA
TIL Illinois officials offer no explana-
ton to, this Some officials have ad-
vanced the theory that the germs In
some way come from. animals, some
say from horses But Dr. Flexner. the
celebrated specialist, who has made
exhaustive studies both Of animal and
human ailments, says that the kind Of
paralysis which animals have Is not
the same as that which attacks chill
dren nor do animals spreadtthe disease
except possibly dogs cats and fowls
carry it from some human habitatton
where the disease exists. State vetert-
narians here say they have never
found anything resembling this In
sfantile paralysis among live stock.

feet. and that Mr.. Powers was subject
to the penalty mentioned therein. Act
ing upon this information, which was
found to be true Judge Barker fined
Powers $1,000 and sentenced him to
the county Jail for ninety days.
Powers demurred saying it was not
understood among the dealers in the
city that the old injunction still APP
Piled, and that the contempt of court
provision was still in vogue. In due
justice, therefore, and in consideration
Of the family Of the sentenced man,
Judge Barker removed the prison sem
