INFECTION THROUGH THE EYE
Dangerous Portal Of Entry Seems Not
70 Have Been Given Sufficient
Confederation.

DR.. K. F. Maxcy, Journal of the
American Medical Association,
draws attention to the following
facts: (1) That the eyes offer a
relatively large surface area for the
reception Of droplets sprayed from
the mouths Of other persons. (2)
That an organism introduced into
the conjunctiyal sac may be recov.
cred from the nose in five minutes
from the throat in fifteen minutes
(3) That the upper respiratory tract
OF person wearing properly con.
structed mask may be infected by
exposing the eye briefly to direct
droplet spray. ~ That this portal
Of entry is Of Importance in the
transmission Of acute respiratory in
fections.
He also points out that the fire.
quency with which respiratory infec-
tons, such as acute colds, measles
and influenza, begins with an eye in.
flammation, suggests that the en-
trance of the causative organism by
way OF the eye may not be uncom-
mon. At all events, the evidence
is sufficient to warrant serious con-
sideration Of this portal of entry in
planning measures for the proven.
ton Of the spread Of contagion.

OIL FIELDS IN PERSIA.

The famous oil wells of Baku have
an oriental rival. Western Persia,
between the mountains of Kurdistan
and the Persian gulf, is now known
to contain oil fields whose content
and value are beyond estimate. In
the district Of lrak-Ajemi, full of
names suggesting rare and beautiful
carpets, borings have yielded oil Of
exceptional quality, and disclosed a
tract of nearly 400 square miles. A
high percentage Of benzine and kero-
sene is characteristic of the Persian
oil. England has the concession to
work the fields, and soon the looms
OF kermanshah and lspahan will
give way to oil derricks.--Popular
Mechanics Magazine.

BUFFALO HUNTING NOT GONE
Owner OF Wyoming Herd Has Made
Plans to Furnish the "Sport,"
for Price.

Blase sportsmen who lament the
fact that they can no longer pursue
and kill the wild buffalo of the
Western plains have one more guess
coming, Such as have the price
and the price will be long one
nay soon enjoy the novelty Of wild
buffalo hunt, unaccompanied by
faint Of civilization or game warden
restrictions, just as Buffalo Bill did
in the good old days.
Maj. Timothy Mccoy, owner OF
several thousand acres of mountain
and plain land in the Owl creek
region west of Thermopolis, Wyo.,
has purchased what is known as the
Palmer herd Of buffalo and will turn
the animals loose in a 4,O0O-acre in.
closure.
AS soon as the Enclosure can be
completed, the major announces he
will invite few noted sportsmen for
real buffalo hunt. After that, am
bilious big game hunters with the
price may get their names on the
majors waiting list. The herd rep.
resents an investment Of $4,000.
