There have been several cases OF
lockjaw among animals in this vi.
cinity lately, and good way to pre-
vent this would be for people to pick
up every nail and sharp piece OF
metal from the barnyard, as pune
lures from these things allow the
germ, always present around stables
to gain entrance to the body. If a
case of tetanus develops among your
animals do not treat it without first
making sure that the skin on your
own hands is unbroken, as the dis
ease may gain entrance to your own
body, in this manner. A little pre-
caution in cases Of this kind may
save life.
