RABIES CONTINUE TO SPREAD
I'm COUNTY-FOURTH CASE
More Drastic Methods Threatened Unless Owners
OF Dogs Keep Them From Running AT Large

The authorities are trying to make
1t possible for people to walk the
street night or day without the dan
ger of contracting rabies.
Last year in an adjoining state,
there were $50 cases of rabies in
dogs and about 200 persons were re-
quired to take the Pasteur treat
ment. It became necessary to quar-
antine the entire state for several
months to stop this disease.
Stray and loose dogs are the po-
tential carriers or spreaedrs of rab-
les. The state officers spend three
fourths of their time driving dogs
home and warning the owners. The
quarantining law prohibits any dog
loose, even on the owners property.
They must be confined or tied.
