Summer Does Not Expect Visitation
Of Disease In Iowa But Says lnva-

In Cara Of Fruit From Southern or

Special to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moin'ss, July 2s.--Dr. G.. H.
Sumner, secretary OF the state board
OF health, hos accepted the invitation
extended by Surgeon General Ru-
pert Blue to attend conference to
be held at Galveston next week call
ed by five states to consider means
OF combating bubonic plague. The
health authorities plan to keep on
the alert at;ainst this disease which
Is usually brought over from the orr
entsb by rats and mice on board ships.
DR.. Sumner does not anticipate any
visitation or this disease in Iowa but
he states that 1t is possible for
plague rat or leprous rat to invade
this state. coming in car of fruit or
produce from the gulf or from the
western states and injecting rodents
Of this state including ground SPUR
rels. Hence any preventive measures
necessary will be applied here to fore
stall any possible trouble. FIeas,
flies and Other insects are known to
DO carriers of this disease and dogs
or cats coming In from infected re-
lgions more or less flea ridden may
be carriers.
Investigations conducted in India
have confirmed the theory that the
plague is primarily disease Of ro-
dents, rats, mice and ground squir-
rels-but that 1t is transmitted to
man from these infected animals by
insects.
Instances are related by the reports
of Surgeon Blue confirming tho be-
lief that rats are the principal car
riers Of the disease in this country.
Source Traced to Rats.
Some years ago when bubonic
plague existed in San Francisco its
source was traced to rats. Two boys
playing in basement in San Fran
cisco found the body OF dead rat.
They buried the animal with funeral
honors. III forty eight hours both
were i'll with bubonic plague. A lab
orer finding sick rat on the wharf
picked 1t up with hts bare hands and
threw 1t into the bay. Three days
later he rtas seized with the plague.
It Is related also that doctor and
his family moved into a flat over a
grocery store. Being annoyed by q
foul odor the wainscoting around the
plumbing was removed and two dead
rats found there. In two or three
days the two members OF the family
who used the room sickendd, one dy.
ing on tho fifth day Of bubonic plague.
War against rats, mice and ground
squirrels is therefore necessary, the
health authorities declare, to pre-
vent the spread Of the plague.
