MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION
HAVE A GOOD PROGRAM

Memphis, Tenn, July 49,
The tentative program for the
Ninth Annual Convention of the
Cotton States Merchants Asso-
citation, which meets in this city
August Is, 16 and II is one of
the best-balanced educational
programs ever arranged for a
meeting of this kind. Several
speakers of national and inter-
national repute-men who are
in constant touch with the eco
nomic situation throughout the
world-have been booked for
the three day convention, and
the messages they will bring to
southern business men undoubt-
edly will prove of immeasure-
able benefit to the country in
these times of stress.
Efforts to bring Secretary of
Agriculture H. C. Wallace here
for the meeting, met with fail
ure, when the secretary advised
the committee a few days ago
that a previous engagement
would prevent his acceptance of
the local invitation to meet the
business men of the South.
An invitation has been ex-
tended Frank O. Lowden, for
mer governor Of Illinois, but he
has not replied to the telegram
sent him by the Committee. 1t
is believed that Gov. Lowden
will accept.

FACTS CONCERNING
HYDROPHOBIA GIVEN
PaSteur Treatments Sent Free
To Physicians Upon
Request

The following article on Hy-
drophobia, it's symptoms, cure
and many other interesting
facts, is sent out by DR.. C. R.
Stingily, director State Hygien-
ic Laboratory, jackson:
/. What is Rabies?
Rabies is primarily a disease
that affects dogs and wolves, but
is communicable to man, the
horse, cattle, sheep, and other
domestic animals and is never
developed spontaneously.
2. Is Rabies more prevalent
in summer than in the other
seasons?
No. Rabies is equally as pre-
valent in summer as in the cold
season.
8. How is the desease trans
mitted?
The disease is transmitted
through the agency of the sa-
Iva, either carried in with the
bite or getting into an abrasion
or wound, accidentally, as is
often done when people drench
cows and horses which sup
posedly have some other disease.
: 4. What is the incubation per-
iod in man? T..
~ The incubation period in man
is from three weeks to three
months as a rule; as a rule we
may extend over a period of
several years.
- 5. What is the relationship
aof injuries over the exposed sur
face of the body to that protect
ed by the clothing?
The clothing affords a certain
amount of protection. The poison
wtravels to the central nerve sys-
tenn through the nerve sheathes
and not through the blood nor
lymphatics, therefore, face and
head injuries are more danger
GUS than those Of the extremi-
ties.
6. How long before an animal
shows the first symptoms of
Rabies and is it's saliva infec-
tious to man.
AS a rule the saliva of the
animal is fectious five days be-
fore the onset of any symptoms,
though it may be ten days.
Z. What is the first treatment
to be given to a person who has
been bitten by mad dog?
The wound should be cleansed
thoroughly and cauterized with
pure Nitric Acid as soon as
possible, even IF the Pasteur
treatment is to be given.
8. Should the dog be killed :?
If it is possible to confine the
dog. it should not be killed. If it
has Rabies it will certainly be
dead within five days. If the dog
