Warn Farmers Of
Spray Painting

According to a recent issue OF
the American Painter" a month
ly painters magazine, racketeer-
ing painters have been operating
in almost every part of the u. S.
and great many farmers have
been victimized by sharp prac-
tise.
Usually the racketeers have
truck-mounted spray equipment
and collect money in advance by
telling the farmer that they will
finish the job and that the farm
or need not bother waiting at
home until the job is complete.
In other instances the painters
actually do finish but the inferior
paint" washes off rapidly. In
many cases the painters display
nationally advertised labels on
paint cans but the cans actually
contain homemade or inferior
paint. The magazine cited in
stances where brick dust had been
mixed with water to produce red
barn paint. All farmers are urged
to be on the look out for such
gyp artists and report any suspi-
cious persons to the police.

Hunters Warned
OF Rabbit Fever

Ohio hunters who come down
with chills and fever after they
have cleaned rabbits should call
a doctor
That was the advice DR.. John
d. Porterfield, state health direc-
tor, gaYe Friday as tularemia-
rabbit fever-again became an UNI
popular topic with Ohio hunters.
"Streptomycin has been very
effective in treatment of 'tular-
emia," DR.. Porterfield said, "but
the disease must be caught in
its early stages if treatment is to
be successful"
Porterfield said that until a
few years ago Z per cent of the
people who got rabbit fever died
but that new anti-biotic drugs
had reduced the death rate.
Humans get the disease while
handling the. carcasses of infected
animals. If the rabbit has been
thoroughly cooked the danger OF
infection is eliminated.
Soap and water is the best pre-
ventive step a person can take
after dressing a rabbit" DR.. Por-
terfield said. He also said that
rubber gloves We're a good pro-
lection as long as the gloves were
not punctured by sharp bones.
The germs get to human bodies
through cuts or scratches, usually
on the hands.
A rabbit that has yelloWish-
white pin spots on its liver, spleen
or lymph gland probably has tu-
laremia, according to DR.. E. Mar
Tin, chief of the game manage
ment section of the state wildlife
division.
Rabbits live. only four to six
days after they get the disease he
said, and in the latter stages they
act sluggish.
DR.. Martin said that there was
no way of telling how extensive
tularemia is in Ohio at this
early date.
