RABIES in DOGS
NOT DIFFICULT
TO DETERMINE

Symptoms by which residents
may determine when a dog has
rabies are sufficiently noticeable to
warn residents, according TO Dr..
Warren r. Fox, county health Off
Ger.
Since several rabies infected dogs
were discovered in Ell Centro and
surrounding communities lately, DR..
Fox prepared the following outline
CT the symptoms:
According to the November %,
1890, issue of the weekly bulletin of
the state department of public
health, THE first symptom of ra-
bies in q dog is a change in the
tone of his voice, followed by a
change in the normal disposition
of the animal. There is a tendency
for the dog to roam, and finally
paralysis of the muscles of the neck
and jaws appears, followed by the
final state in which there is a
complete paralysis of the hind
legs, making it impossible for the
animal to move. The term hydro
phobia" was given to this disease
because of the symptoms which de-
velop when the animal, which
throat muscles paralyzed, attempts
to drink" Other symptoms to be
observed are as follows:
l. Unusual actions of dog such
as being overly savage, over friend
ly, and overly timid.
2. Drooling at mouth is noticed
fairly early, but the animal seldom
foamS at the mouth.
3. Paralysis and muscular weak
ness noticed in the early stages be-
come more pronounced as the dis
east progresses.
4. The animal will eat and drink
until paralysis makes it impossible
to do SO. However, an animal may
try to eat and dring even in the
last stages.
5. Before death, paralysis of the
jaw muscles usually occurs, causing
the lower jaw to drop. In some
cases, the dropping of the lower
jaw is noticed in the early stages.
6. There are two general types
of rabies-the furious and the dumb
type. In the furious type the dog
will sometimes roam for miles and
will attack any moving object that
attracts its attention, either by
noise or sight. In the dumb type
the dog will not usually bite un-
less molested.
The cooperation of all dog own
ers in compiling with city ordinance
No. 342, governing the Control and
Eradication of Rabies" is requested
by the health department. Cooper
alton of all dog owners in the un-
incorporated area CT the county in
complying with county ordinance.
No. 80 is also requested. Strict OBJ
servance OF these ordinance will
help to stamp out rabies in our
community. A copy of these ordi-
nances may be secured upon re-
quest.

STANDARD SHOWN
Governor of French Bank States
Policy of Institution at
Annual Meeting.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, January 29.-Complete con-
fldence in the gold standard and a
firm intention to maintain the franc
on that basis was expressed by Gov.
Clement Moret at the annual stock
holders meeting Of the Bank of France
We are firmly resolved to guarantee
free play of the gold standard" he
stated. We have proclaimed our will
to remain faithful to this principle in
which the American and French gov
ernments acting in accord, have de-
clared their belief"
He said the Bank of France had tried
to sustain the value of foreign moneys,
such as the pound sterling and the
reichsmark, and indicated the banks
share in the S100, 100000 credit to Ger
many, due February 4, would be
renewed.
While working in close cooperation
with the central banks, he continued
the Bank of France has not always con-
sidered easy money good thing for
Paris and therefore has not always
followed the Federal Reserve and the
Bank of England in lowering discount
rates recently.
Presumably referring to reparations,
he said all economic activity rested on
credit and that meant respect for exist
ing contracts. During 1881 the banks
gold holdings increased to $4,000, ,000,O
francs and the gold coverage from SO
per cent to so per cent.

STAUNTON, Va, January 29.-The
annual stockholders meeting of the
Miller Train Control Corporation was
held at the company's home Office here
and was attended by stockholders from
Virginia, District Of Columbia, Mary
land and PENNSYLVANIA.
Among the directors chosen for the
ensuing year are three well known busi-
ness men Of Washington, D. C.-M. C.
Hazen, A. o. Ollie and Samuel C. Red
man.
Vice President and General Manager
Miller in his report said: In spite of
the prevailing unfavorable business
conditions, real progress has been made
during the past year, especially in the
sales of trafilatorS which shows a big
increase over any previous period. At
the present time trafilatOrS are in use
in various cities located in IL States.
including such important centers as
Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia,
suburban Boston and Chicago. The
cities of New York and Los Angeles
have purchased equipment and are
making installation at the present time
The installation made last Fall by
the city of Washington at Wisconsin
and Massachusetts avenues is an out
standing accomplishment and is at
tracing widespread attention, not only
in the National Capital but in many
parts of the country.
1T is most interesting to note that
vehicle-actuated traffic signal lights are
rapidly coming into general use. In-
deed, several States and some cities
prohibit the use of arbitrarily timed
signals except under special conditions. -

Grain Market

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 29.-Inf1uenced
by cold wave threatening crop damage
and by uneasiness about war develop
mentS. grain values showed an early
upward trend today. Advances, how
ever, were checked by stock m2rGet de-
clines.
Opening at a shade lower to l2a3s
gain, wheat afterward held near the
initial limits Corn started Is off TO
4 up and subsequently displayed firm
ness.
Leading crop experts said tempera-
lures colder than Is above zero east Of
the Mississippi River would probably do
permanent injury to vital processes Of
the wheat plant and that 10 above or
lower would inf1ict serious damage. The
reason aScribed was the present unusu-
ally advanced stage of wheat growth.
In the Southwest temperatures Of
above zero or lower would be bad, as
much of the western third of this terri
tory has only small seeding just up
or coming up.
Canadian reports told of one of the
worst storms Of the Winter whipping
southeast from Regina and the ther-
mometer 20 below zero. Meanwhile,
temperatures of below zero were re-
ported at Sioux Falls, S. OAK, and 2
above zero at Omaha. Bears, however,
expressed belief that snowfalls ahead
Of the cold wave would largely, if not
altogether, nullify threatened crop
damage Corn and oats were chiefly
governed by wheat market changes
Provisions sympathized with weak
ness of hog values.
