 NEW YORK DA|L|ES

NEW YORK, Jan. A = Frank A. Munsey, owner of the New York Sun and the Evening Sun who recently bought the New York Herald and Evening Telegram from the estate of the late James Gordon Bennett, an nounced tonight that the Sun and the Herold would be amalagamated Feb ruary 1, under the name of the Sun and the New York Herald.
 MT. Munsey added that it had been his wish to preserve the Herald as an independent entity, but this could not be done as it would have been in opposition to all the laws of economies; all the laws of sound business.
 "The Herald printing plant is archaic and worn to the breaking paint, he said, adding {" that new equipment could not be installed under a year and 6. half and then it would cost mill lion dollars or more.'
 "The Sun does not need the Herald in combination, but the Herald needs the Sun," MT. Munsey said. Tt will get from the Sun the vigor and energy and initiative that the Herald has lacked in recent years. It will get too, as great measure of prestige as it gives"
 Mr.. Munsey said that his plans as to the Evening Telegram and the Evening Sun had not been completed.

EmuS Here Nest
in the Winter

MANY emus have been in the New
York geological Park, but it it is only
in recent years that they have been
induced to breed here" writes Lee S.
Crandall, Curator of Birds of the
New York Geological Park, in an
article on "The Troubles of Father
Emu" in recent issue of Boys Life.
I'm 1914 new quarters for our emus
became available, including several
acres of pasture, divided into two OF
three large corrals. They had not been
there long when the deep-tones
booming of courtship was heard.
"In Australia we find our seasons
reversed. Summer is the antipodes
and spring being correspondingly up
set. Since most birds the world over
rest in the spring, to give the young
time to grow before the coming of
cold weather, the emu in Australia
breeds at a season which corresponds
to our autumn. Habits ages old are
hard to break, and captive emus in
the northern hemisphere, far from
their native home, feel the mating
instinct at almost exactly the same
time as if they were in Australia. That
this happens to be late autumn or the
dead of winter matters no whit.
"The question of reaction to changed
conditions in regard to nesting periods
is still unsolved in many cases. Some
birds change their habits to CORES

FOR THE GROWTH OF CHILDREN

The growth element known as

These properties that effect our
health and whose absence actually
brings about disease, are present in

Cats seek catnip with feverish IT,

unerringly endowed with instinct as

Scientists have studied and expert
mented the past few years with valu-

"vitamines" into two classes, called
respectively Fat Soluble AZ and
Water Soluble B." Fat Soluble A is
found in butter, eggs, milk, etc. Water

Babies are Not to
Bad After All

Rabies or hydrophobia is a specific,
communicable disease affecting all
warm-blooded animals, including man.
The dog is especially susceptible and
because of his rowing habits is the
chief disseminator of the disease.
The bite of a rabid animal is not
necessarily fatal; the virus is esti-
mated to be transmitted in about 80
percent of cases. But when the dis.
ease is contracted and not treated
it is practically always fatal.
The Pasteur treatment prevents
many fatalities, but even with this
there is much anxiety, suffering hard
ship and expense.
Rabies can be transmitted only
by animals that are actually diseased
at the time. There is no foundation
for the belief that persons bitten by
a dog which subsequently becomes
rabid may contract the malady.
This terrible disease is all too pre-
valent in the United States, in spite
of the fact that it's suppression is COM
paraively simple. The problem is
solved when the rabid dog is clint.
mated. This is proved by the expert
ence of some other countries, notably
Norway, where the disease has been
entirely stamped out.
A similar result might be brought
about in this country, with the CO.
operation of the States, by Q) licen-
sing all dogs, (2) muzzling all dogs
not otherwise kept in restraint, and
60 rigid inspection and quarantine at
borders and ports of entry.
