Mandatory Dog
Vaccination
Law Proposed

An anti-rabies dog vaccination
ordinance, making incubation of
dogs mandatory once every three
years and requiring evidence of
compliance as a condition for OBJ
tanning annual dog license tags,
has been proposed for Prince Ed
ward county.
The board of supervisors tenta-
lively approved the ordinance in
its June session Tuesday, but re-
served final judgment until after
the ordinance is public printed
and public hearing is con-
Quoted at the July 5 regular
board meeting.
The proposed ordinance in
cludes provisions for impounding
of unvaccinated dogs. and fixes
penalties of from S. to $25 for
each vilotion of any of its pro-
visions.
EffectlVe Date
The ordinance, which contains
a provision permitting visitors or
hunters to bring dogs here for
brief periods without compliance,
would become effective immedi-
ately after the public hearing, if
then formally adopted by the SUD-
ervisors.
The board proposed the ordi-
nance with the firm encourage
ment of DR.. F. j. Clements,
health director, who told super
visors, "our doctors would feel
much better if we had such an
ordinance. and countie all
around us have them now" He
reminded that the medical staff
of Southside Community Hospital
had endorsed such action, and the
board was in receipt of a re-
quest for action from the Farm
vile Junior Woman's Club.
If the program is adopted for
the county, the board, in coopera-
ton with the health department
and local veterinarians, would ar
range for clinics convenient for
the public for the vaccinations.
Cut School Debt
The supervisors authorized
Treasurer j. w. Wilson, Jr., to
redeem school bonds totalling
$1,000 from funds remaining in
the general fund for the fiscal
year ending this month. The
bonds are part of the S. $50 and
interest debt remaining on Farm
vile High School, and are part
of a so 900 issue of October.
1888. Normally they are redeem
able at the rate of $3.50 annually.
Other than the heavy debt re-
manning on the new R. R. Motion
High School, the county's only
other school debt amounts to
$500 outstanding on the old Ne
gro high school at the Ely and
S. Main street "" That latter
debt is payable at an annual rate
of ST ,075, from a 1910 bond issue.
