Take No Chances.

Commenting on the death that occurred
recently in Baltimore from the effects of the
bite Of a rabid dog, Dr.. John S. Fulton.
Director of the State Department of Health,
said; There is just one preventive
against rabies, as the disease which
follows injury by a rabid dog is called.
and that is the Pasteur treatment. The
treatment requires twenty-one inocula-
tons, one each day for twenty-one days
II the treatment is not given. the disease
is inevitably fatal. The old name for it
hydrophobia meaning the fear Of water,
comes from the horrible spasms Of the
throat which accompany it and agra
waited by the sight Of water or food or any
thing that suggests the sensation of swal-
lowing.
THE man who died recently did not
have the Pasteur treatment. He was bit
ten by dog that was acting suspiciously.
His wound was dressed, but he made no
further effort to be protected front the
terrible disease from which a mad dog
suffers and which is passed on to the
victim that is bitten.
IN the thirty years since the Pasteur
treatments were started in Maryland-back
in lS9S-approximately 1900 people have
been given the protective treatments
against this dreadful disease. Among
those treated there have been less than
five deaths. Each Of these occurred be-
cause the treatments were started too late.
IAN unnecessary and preventable death
like the one that occurred recently. serves
as a terrible warning. The person who is
bitten or otherwise injured by mad ami
NAL or by one that is acting suspiciously
should apply at once for the Pasteur treat
ment. If the animal was not killed and
was placed under the care of the nearest
veterinarian or of the State Department
Of Agriculture which is what should be
done-a few days under such care will
show whether the animal is normal and
can be released. II the animal is not ma d
there is no need for further treatments.
If the animal was killed, tests made at
the State Laboratory will show whether or
not the creature was mad and will deter
mine whether or not the treatments should
be continued until the full number have
been given.
There has been steady increase from
year to year in the number of people who
have been bitten by mad or vicious ami
mails. probably due to the carelessness of
the owners in allowing dogs to run at large
and to the great number of stray, owner
less dogs. Since the first of the current
year, over 100 persons who had been bit
ten or otherwise injured by rabid animals
have been given Pasteur treatment and
have been protected from rabies. OF that
number So were treated by DR.. C. W. G.
Rohrer. chief of the Pasteur Division of
the State Department of Health and the
rest by their own physicians"

Treat Your W heat.

The Baltimore Chamber of Commerce.
Henry NJ. Warfield. President. views with
such concern the great prevalence Of smut
in the wheat grown in Maryland and
nearby localities this season that it feels
that every possible effort should be made
to eradicate this condition as promptly as
possible.
with this end in mind we are asking
your cooperation in our desire to impress
upon our farmers the importance Of treat
ing their seed wheat before fall seeding.
I'VE understand that the county agents
are prepared to render every assistance
possible and also that the farm bureaus in
the several counties will be able to provide
the material required for this treatment.
mo farmer should plant this fall with
out first treating the seed. whether he had
smut in his wheat this year or not The cost
of treating this seed is most trivial COM
pared to the loss to the farmer in the re-
duced price he obtains for crop infected
with smut. Inspections at Baltimore this
year show that over IS per cent of this
years crop contains smut to an extent
that cost the farmers on an average Of
about IL cents per bushel.
ut is the intention of the Baltimore
Chamber of Commerce to secure the full
est cooperation Of the State and Govern
ment auth orities. which we now feel Ger.
tain will be cheerfully given. so that If
the farmers can be convinced of the i'm
portance OF the matter under discussion
and will communicate with the county
agent. every assistance will be given
them"
