HOT DATS OF LATE SUMMER
NOT NECESSARILY 'DOG DATS'
The American Foundation for Ani
mal Health strikes a Mow at a stub
born myth?the old idea that the-hot
days of late summer are necessarily
"dog days."
- If "dog days" refers to the reason
of the greatest trouble with mad
dogs, then the term might better be
applied to November than to August,
a Foundation statement said.
Actually, it was explained, rabies
?the mad dog disease? is more
prevalent in late fall than during the
hot summer. And hot weather ap
parently has little to do with the
prevalence of the disease.
Neverthelees, the American: Foun
dation advised dog' and livestock
owners to maintain watchful pre
cautions aggiast rabies throughout
the year. Although vaccinations can
be used effective! to prevent ra
bies, the deadly virus of this disease
still causes approximately 10,000 re
ported cases in the United Slates
"Rabies can die controlled and
eradicated if counties and states
adopt a systematic program of con
trol, based on vaccination, quaran
tine, compulsory licensing of dogs,
and strict control of stray dogs.
"Vaccination of all dogs against
rabies not only will mean greater
safety for children and adults front
bites of rabid dugs, but also provide
humane protection for the lives of
pets and livestock."
High prices received by North Car
olina farmers on" June 15 for cotton,
meat animals, and poultry products,
pushed the index for all farm pro
ducts to 261 per cent of the 191<Vl4.
average.
