DISEASES CARRIED BY DOGS
Animal Should Be Handled in Such
Way as Best 10 Further Welfare
Of the Community.

Many diseases of man and domestic
animals are carried by dogs. Every
body, Of course, knows that the dog
is responsible FOR rabies, but 1t is
not so generally known that the dog
Is equally responsible for other fatal
diseases. Among them may be men-
toned hydatid and gid in man and
stock, tapeworm in man and especial
ly In children, tongue worm in man
and stock, measles" In sheep, cysti-
cercosis Of the lver in stock. Some
Of these parasites depend so absolute
ly on dogs as carriers that they would
become extinct If dogs were not avail
able as hosts. Dogs probably play a
part, also, in the spread of diseases
due to fungi. such as ringworm and
favus. and they certainly play a part
In the spread Of diseases that may be
carried by fleas and ticks.
The United States department OF
agriculture, while recognizing the dog
as a useful domestic animal. insists

thrown back from their faces. They
are highly ornamental and becoming.
Most Turkish women don't want to
abandon them in favor Of hats. But
there are many sorts Of wells, and the
smart black silk wells which some or
the women wear are very fetching
when draped artistically over their
hair.
In the railway and street cars there
are special seats for women, hut the
flimsy curtains which are supposed to
screen them from the gaze of men are
usually drawn back and it is not un-

CATTLE SHRINK IN TRANSIT
Owner Loses Considerable by Not
Taking Proper Precautions In
Shipping Live Stock.

Investigations by the Colorado agri-
cultural college are beginning to show
that shrlnkage of live stock when
shipped to market can be greatly re-
duced. The most important thing IS
a comfortable car and not much crowd
ing. The next thing Is to have the
animals we'll fed and contented when
they are loaded and until they are
sold at the terminal market. In other
words, plenty of feed and water and
comfortable quarters are most impor-
tant.
"Some farmers" says R. w. Clark
live stock specialist for that institu-
tion, "ship regularly with little or no
shrinkage, while others at all times
have enormous shrinkage."

Since the armistice Italians hare
been working industriously to popular

the Germans did. But their schools

common to see men standing in the
compartments for women.
Only a very few old men, however,
are rash enough to sit down in the
same seat with woman. Turkish
women seldom go to theater where
there are men. Special performances
are arranged for women only.
The war has done much to break
down the barrier between Turkish men
and women. The women were needed
so badly as nurses and relief workers
that the government had to avail itself
of their services.

that care must be taken to minimize
the danger Of diseases spread by them.
In general way, say the specialists
Of the department, there are three
kinds Of dogs-the ownerless dog, the
other persons dog, and your own dog.
The stray dog which recognizes no
owner, they say, does not fit into the
modern scheme Of civilization and
must be eliminated. A dog that Is
allowed by the owner to wander at
large will have substantially the same
habits Of life, the same sort Of food,
and be practically as dangerous as the
ownerless dog. You have the right
to insist, they point out, that such
dogs keep of your premises.
Your own dog should be handled
In such a way as best to further the
welfare Of the dog and the community.
He should be kept in restraint and
not allowed th1 n freedom OF the
house or .eyet do premises.

away from home the dog should be
muzzled with q reliable metal muzzle,
not with a strap muzzle that would
be cruel to the dog If tight enough
to be effective and which is usually
so loose as merely to give false
sense Of security, since it permits
the dog to bite. !

The English who have been in busi-

transact their business in French.
Since the war, however, there has
been great influx Of American
traders who know only English. and
the steady stream of American ships
coming to Constantinople with English
speaking crews, as well as American
Red Cross workers and American and
English relief workers Of various sorts,
has created a greater demand for the

No news of important disorders In
Mexico has come to hand Of late and
observers of that situation express the
view that the revolution has produced
real period of quiet. This no doubt
Is largely due to the fact that the
Mexican people are tired out for the
lime being and if they do not propose
to have permanently settled conditions
are satisfied to let matters rest until
the various factions can gain a second
wind. But there is more optimism In
reports than at any time during the
past sever years. People are said to
be returning to work and only in Chi

there any great amount Of unrest. The

session of three days the council was
forced to admit that 1t could do moth

X by which the powers are pledged
to united action in defending the ter

return to that nation Of the Shantung

German rights in Shantung to Japan.

to that end. China is requested to ex'

more important Is the information that
all Russia Is ready to revolt against

rotten government and the breaking OF

to a realization that the idealisdc
principles Of their present rulers
which promised them a heaven on
earth, are taking them to the opposite
destination and that they are op
