KILLED TWO COWS
SUSPECTED HYDR0PHOblA

Mr.. P. F. Boozer. who Hves near
the lower steel bridge on Saluda river
killed a stock cow about three weeks
ago because it was acting strangely
very much like a mad dog acts.
About two weeks later a mich co"
acted in the same manner, fighting
at everything coming her way. Think
ing that his cow also had hydrophoola
Mr.. Boozer, after consulting neigh
bors, concluded to kill her. He sent
the head to the State board OF health.
After an examination of the cows
head the board informed Mr.. 'Boozer
that the COW did not have hydrophoola'
That was on Wednesday of last week
This was a great relief to the family
as they had been using milk fron
that cow and was uneasy amout IT,
The reason hydrophobia was suspl-
cioned was that mad dog had re-
Gently been running in the pasture
The dog was killed at the time None
of the other COWS have shown any
symptoms of rabies. The two COWS
were worth about $100.
