PREVENTION OF cHARBoN.
Vaccination Of Animals Before March
Urgently Recommended.

All animals should be vaccinated
regularly where charbon once exisbea;
and the owner should not wait nhs1A
the disease has broken out, as It Pc
nuires about one month from the frst
injection for the animals to become
protected. It is better to set a date
IN which to begin vaccination each
wear. This should not be allowed TO
mass without having the animals given
the first dose of double-dose vaccine.
They ought to be protected by tne
first of April, as charbon, as RUE,
rarely breaks out previous to that
time.
The symptoms of charbon vary ac-
cording to the channel through which
the infection (germs) enters the sys-
TEN. and may be from sudden deatn,
without any external signs, TO SICK
ness for a few days with sWelllngs on
the exterior of the body. Where the
infection has been inoculated through
the skin, a primary swelling Will pc
seen at each point OF lnoeulation.
Hogs usually show swelling OF tne
throat, which is sometimes mistaken
for sore throat or quinsy. During
the summer months, especially where
charbon has previously existed, al
cases of sudden death should be look.
ed upon as suspicious of charbon, ane
the carcasses treated as such, as mos
Of them are likely to have resulted
from that disease, and it is muci
safer not to take any chances. Be

NO CONSUMPTION IN VICTORIA.
Louisiana May Also Be Freed of This
Terrifying Disease.

Victoria is an Australian state
about as large as the combined area
OF New York and PeEnsy ylvai1ia. bike
every civilized country it faced the
problem of fighting tuberculosis.
Victoria people, men and women, are
really part of government, and ac-
customed to solve together the cues
tions which affect the state. They
realized that tuberculosis was q
menace not alone to the state, but
to commercial progress as well.
Therefore by campaign of educa--
ton against the white plague, and
the necessary laws, with enforcing
provisions, Victoria vanquished tuber-
culosis. It is a consumption-free
state.
Louisiana may be cleaned OF this
terrifying disease and be made as
healthful and progressive as IS VIC
toria, but it must use the same en-
ergetic means and precautions. Ihe
rules for stamping out consumption
are simple.
Do not spit in public places. :,
Use paper cups or napkins to hold
the snit, and burn these as soon as
possible after using.
Keep the patient in the open air and
give nourishing food such as eggs
and milk.
Frequent baths and plenty of rest
are essential. :.
Consumption can be cured IN
many. many cases, and it can be pre-,
vented in almost all, but care and
scrupulous cleanliness are the prime
factors.

lowing communication, to which we
cheerfully give space, together with
our unqualified Endorsement OF the
appeal therein expressed and the ear

response on the part of the charltably
inclined people of this coahnunlty:

"The Charity Hospital is an lnstl-

port points out that the installation

cessity.
s0The board of administrators ap,,

"a Vagabond Prince.

"a Vagabond Prince" in which Fl.
r. Warner will be seen at the Gem
Friday, concerns Prince Tonic OF
Bothalia, who, tired Of the pomp and
nettiness of the little Balkan princl-
palitv which his father rules, longs
to venture out in the great world,
seek adventures, and forget court
etiquette. On the day OF hls Pc Pc
trothal to the Princess Athana'
daughter of a neighboring monarch
this feeling of evaporation becomes
acute. Slipping away from his SUITE
he wanders from the castle, to breathe
the air of the ouside world. While IN
this mood he chances upon Wander-
imp artist, Burton Randall, OF San
Francisco, who sympathizes with hlnl
and urges him to journey out into
the great world of adventure.

! VOTES FOR WOMEN.
Southern States Woman Suffrage
Conference.
Z Alt Camp Street, Nesy Orleans.
Women's Division Of the Inausura
pnraIm

Women's Division of the Inaugural
Parade.
The committee in charge of ar
rangements for the inaugural parade
is specially inviting women to march.
Mrs. James H. Boggs, chairman of the
women's division, says: "The history
of the last four years has done much
toward giving women place in pub
lie affairs"
This recognition serves to recall the
magnificent parade preceding the first
inauguration of President Wilson.
Then the women were insulted and
crowded out of position by the toughs,
and an inefficient police force were
unable to cope with the disorder.
Troops from Fort Meyer were called
into action and protected American
women citizens in the capital of the
nation It was spectacle that
brought criticism and investigation of
the police heads, and unbounded ad-
miration for the courage of the wo-
men. In noticeable contrast the men
marchers of the following day were
amply protected. Order will be main
tained in the inaugural parade of
March 4, and women will participate
with credit to the states which recog-
nize their citizenship, and as a sug-
gestion to the states which have not
vet shown them justice. One fact
will stand out conspicuously; for the
first time in the Inauguration of a
president of the United States there
will be women's division.
