DOftS CARRY DISEASE.
Neglected Animals 3fay Become Car
rlcrs of Infect iou to .Farm Ani
mals. -
Tho dog in Gio country ls a useful
nnd' pleasant adjunct to the farm If ho
ls properly controlled rvnd cared for,
hut when neglected may readily be
como a carrier of disease to stock, in
addition.to gaining opportunity to kill
sheep and destroy gardens and other
property. Dog ordinances, as a gen
eral rule, haye been Intended chiefly
to curb the dog's power pf doing i.iarm
by attacking, biting, killing or run
ning sheen or stock. The part that
ho plays aa a carrier of di?ases to
animals only recently has been recog
nized,'according to tho zoologists Di
the department, who believe that
when i1?!? is better understood; rural
V "durance's and . lawo whkli lessen
this danger will gain the 'support o?
Gio community..
Of Gie-diseases carried to stock by
dogs, . the foot-and-mouth discaso ?B
probably of the greatest interest at
thia timo. In this case the dog acts
as a mechanical carrier, of infection.
The dbg wihieh runs across an infect
ed farm easily may carry in tho dirt
on his feet the. virus of .this ino3t
contagious of animal diseases to oth
er farms and'Gius spread Gie disease
to tho neighboring herds. In infect
ed localities it is absolutely essential,
therefore, to keep all dogs chained
and never to allow i'iem oft the farm
.except on'leash?
There are, however, many . .other
maladies lu the spread bf which tho
dog takes an acGve part. In Bulletin
200' of the department, "The Dog as
a Carrier of Parasites and Disease,"
it ls pointed oat thai rabies, hydatid.
ringworm, favus, double-pored tape
worm, roundworm, and tongue worm,
are. oftpn conveyed to human beings
in this way. It occasionally happens.'
also Gist Gio dog "helps fleas and^tickr;
in transmitting bubonic- plague or tho
deadly spotted fever.
Hydatid disease is caused by tho
presence. in the liver, kidneys, bram,
lungs, and other organs of a bladder
worm or larval -tapeworm. Bladder
worms are often as largo as an orange
and may, be larger. A dog which- is
allowed to feed on carrion, or the raw
viscera of slaughtered animals may
eat all or part of a bladder worm
containing:numerous tapeworm heads.
These tapeworm (heads, develop into
omalljs'?guientGd tapeworms In. Gie inr
tooGnes of Gie deg. The tapeworms
In turn develop egga which are pass
ed out In Gio excrement of the dog.
They are . spread broadcast on grass
and . in " drinking water whero nai
rn al s can very well,eat them and thus
becomo infected.' Tho (hog Is 'parti
cularly iliable to Gils disease /because
bf. its . rooting habits. The eggs' may
iget into huinari food, and1 persona
-who allow : dogs to< lick- Gielr hands
and f?ce oleo run .Gie risk of-getting"
tho ?fega; ot GK> tapeworm in their
systems.
. Prevention on .ih<v farm consists in
so. restraining S'lo d?g,*hat ho can not
get at carrion dr raw viscera. .Vis
cera should bo 'boiled before being
.fed to dogs ar.J- should never be
thrown bu tho -fields. lt .not cooked

25 MILES ROADS
TO BEGIN WITH
As a Starter Tney Will, Take

. ? Pendleton.
.'..i.i .
Realizing tho practical value of the
so-called "split log drag." and
prompted hy a feeling of community
pride, the farmers of tho Lebanon
section have 'organized a road drag
ging club.
In response to an, Invitation from
Mr. lt.- It. Thompson, several citi
zens assembled at hl3 home on the
evening of December lOUi. Atter a
delicious supper definite plans were
laid. Mr. L. F.\ 1'voinpson was so
of road were apport!oned for a sys
tematic dragging. ''ho upper high
way from Ahdorson'to Pendleton was
first ^onsldereoV It will receive reg
ular dragging over its entire courso.
Other S important roads, wore then
apportioned.'.
This meeting Is Just a beginning.
Soon another will be held, at which
time lt ls expected that every road
of the community will be added to tie
list of ones that will receive modern
up*kcep. Drags'are now. being mude
and will be.given a tryout when tho
right season comes.
Tho success ot this and all similar
club3 depends- upon the activo co
operation ' of all tho peoplo of tho
community. It is tho earnest wish
of .tho members ot Vite club that
every ono In the county join In the
dragging of the.roads. Tho .results
from, such would be far reaching lu
its benefits. ,

JEW ELEG1EQ HEAD
OF ATLANTA CHAMBER
j Atlauta, Dec. lt>.-The election of a
Jew; as president of tho Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce has > dono more
to convince tho national press that
they ?landcred Georgia in. tho Frank
case than years of interviews and dc
nluls could have accomplished.
The chamber of commcrco elected
Victor Krlcghaber, not because'he was
a Jew, but because he was' the best
man in Atlanta for tho hlghoflice, and
tho chamber of commerco'dld not
have, the Frank case in tho back of
ti'jcir heads when they ballotted for
president, Lat tho ci rc um H tan ce- has
turned out nonetheless happily for
Georgia.
The New York Times cays that tho
election ol MT. Krlegt&riber "con
clusively refutes the Impression creat
ed in come minda by the Fiank case
that Piero is in Georgia, and especial
ly in Atlanta, a feeiiss Pf antagonism
Ito Jews as such. Atlanta, can now
I point to u fact which proves that tim
bitter rage of which Frank was the
?victim was not the result of his race
but of (ne peculiar conditions which
existed in Atlanta prior to tho murder
of Mary Phagan and otho-.* special
conditions which aroso during tho
trial of Frank."
This ls tho very peint which Gover
nor John M. Slaton and o'.f:er loyal
Georgians eloquently but vainly tried
to impress on the world by argument!
Today lt stands proven by fact. .
? VERY WOMAN
Notable Performance Will Ile Seen
Here Soon.
Henry W. Savage's production of
the dramatic epcctaclo, "Everywo
man" comes to Tho Andorson Decem
ber 29th. It is a play with a purpo?o,
wlt?.H a deep underlying basis of phil
osophy and while tc a certain estent
didactic the pictorial element, tho cos
tumes, lights and ether adjuncts ot
the modern stago have combined to
adU to its effectiveness. The play is
presented upon a huge.scale and' ls
one of Henry W. Savage's most lux
urious productions. It io said that
ho considers it -his most notablo con
tribution to fie American ?tago. Tho
play came >to him SB a discarded and
discredited rejected manuscript. Ho
read it; recognized its beauties; pro
duced it; and oxpended sixty thous
and dollars in a production which
might have had a life of but ono per
formance. Over four million people
have witnessed "Everywoman" and it
is still one cf the most potent box?,
o lilt; e attractions in this epointry. A
special orchestra accompanies, -the
organization to render the impressive
score wu?ch was written by George
Whitefield Chadwick. The cast con
tains a score of .veil' known names;
iFlyinp Across Atlantic Is Now Easy.
In the January American j Magazlno
?Merle Crowell quotes Henry .Wood

flight in on aeroplane is now an easy
?hiatter? Mr. Woodhouse -is governor
of the Aero club of America''and- mem

best- investments for peac?' said Mr. i
Woodhouse. As an indication of the
