 Some of the blooming plants of fall and winter are the begonias and geraniums. which are bloom ing now and will continue until the days get short, after which they cease blooming and rest until spring
 Cyclamen is a fall and wintei blooming plant of great beauty in the States. Here they bloom only half-heartedly Dark, cloudy wealth CT is not to their liking. If one has cyclamen, it must not be kept in hot room, as it likes cool tenn perature of not over 65 degrees. Il wants plenty of water without any excess around it's roots.
 Christmas Cactus
 One winter blooming plant tha bursts forth during our darkeS days, is the Christmas cactus. | blooms usually around Christmas adding its touch of red and greer to the seasons color scheme. Thi plant requires regular watering plant food and an occasional Sat urday night bath. Its leaves ge coated with dust and it can't breatl properly. Just put it in the bath tul or sink and spray it off with coo water-neither hot nor cold, jus cool. Most of the heavy follag plants. such as Aspidistra, Sanse vieria, rubber tree, etc, would great ly benefit with an occasional batf It will not only help them t breath but many insect pests can b detected and sponged off befor doing much damage.
 The best winter blooming plan here is the Primrose. While its color are not as deep as they are in tn summer, still it will put forth bloom the year around. It also is cool loving plant.

Wear Rubber Gloves

It can all be prevented by wear
ing rubber gloves while dressing
rabbits for the table. The gloves
form an effective barrier between
the germs and the skin.
This was definitely proved in one
of our big markets in an eastern
city. 1t had a widespread epidemic,
almost all confined to market en-
ployeas. When the cause became
known, they were all required to
wear rubber gloves and the epidemic
ceased. So far as know, this ap-
plies only to wild rabbits.
The condition usually wears itself
out and the patien. RECEIVERS. But
they are really sick and uncomfort-
able while it is going on.
The form in which it starts in the
finger and runs up the arm is the
usual form, but it may also appear
on the eye, probably from rubbing
the eye with the finger. It may also
appear as pneumonia.
It is easy to determine positively
in the laboratory whether q sus-
pected case is tularemia by a blood
agglutination test. Q
There is also good serum treat
ment, once the diagnosis has be-
come established. With the serum,
the duration Of the disease and the
severity are shortened so per cent.
Of course, the ulcer on the finger
and the enlargement Of the. lymph
nodes should be treated with poul-
tees and antiseptic applications.

Tu|oremio Danger
ofHunting Season
Rabbit Fever" Results Mostly from Dressing
Infected Animal, Says Clendening
By LOGAN cLENDENlNG. M. D.

Oy AOGAN CLENDENlNlx, NJ. u.
WITH THE advent of the hunt
ing season, warning should be
posted again of the danger of rabbit
fever, as it has been nicknamed. It
is technically called tularemia and
that is better term than rabbit
fever because it can be caught
from, a number Of wild animals
squirrels, muskrats, woodchucks,
opossums and many game birds, in
Guiding doves and quail. 1t can also
spread through the bite of flies, ticks
and mites. Still, most of the cases
are traced to rabbits.
The germ of the disease lives in
the bodies of one of these animals
and is spread from one to another
Dy the fly or tick. In man the infec-
ton is usually direct from contact
with the animal.
1t results mostly from dressing an
infected animal. What happens is
tnat a healthy looking and active
rabbit is shot, and the hunter brings
It nome and proceeds to dress it with
MS bare hands. The rabbit, in spite
OF its healthy appearance, may be
just saturated with the tularemia
germ: 1t lis in the muscles just under
the skin and in the blood Of those
muscles and Of the skin itself.
The rabbit skinner has small
scratch on his hand and the germs
get into this. Then a few days later
an ulcer develops on this spot, and a
lymph node enlarges somewhere up
tne arm. Maybe it will affect two
or three lymph nodes. There is fever
sno a general feeling Of fatigue.
