Rabies Makes
Among Fc
Several Seen This Past Weel
By Rubber Boots From I
Of The Usually
During the past week several
foxes, unmistakably suffering
from the rabies, have been encountered
near Southport's. One
of them was killed.
A mad fox attempted to attack
one of the fine mules belonging
to John Berry, who lives
just across Dutchman's Creek on
the Supply road. Berry, a colored
man, succeeded in killing the animal.
A day or two later another
fcx, also said to be suffering from
rabies, attacked Forney Hickman,
who operates the Swain
farm a quarter of a mile from
and adjoining Berry's. Hickman
was wearing heavy rubber boots
and the fox slashed and bit holes
through the boots without actually
touching Hickman.
Ralph Sellers, who bought the
Benny Williams place near the
county home, about a mile from
Hickman's and Berry's, is reportOrder

W. S. Wells, the duly elected
official, will not resume his duties
and will receive no pay until Mr.
Walton is checked out by the
auditor.
At the special meeting, called
after he was discharged from the
Naval Reserves, Wells appeared
before the board and asked that
the office be restored to him. He
had been on a leave of absence
for the duration of the war, or
until such a time when he was
discharged from service. At this
meeting the board understood that
it. would take only about one day
to audit the books of Acting Register
of Deeds Walton. Accordingly
an order was passed providing fori
Wells to have his duties and
salary restored on February 1st.
It has developed since the special
meeting that the regular audi-!
tor has been ill and unable to
check out Mr. Walton. That left
a situation where the county was
apparently due to pay both Wells
and Walton the regular salary.'
Monday Mr. Walton proposed that
as he could not quit the job until j

he, rather than the county should
have to pay two salaries, would

President Daniel reported a

a substantial gain in number of

"Due to building restrictions and

ed to have seen two different mad
foxes during the same week.
On account of the great area
of woodland, much of which gives
dense cover, it is believed that
Brunswick may have more foxes
than any other county in the
state. If the disease really gets
going, considerable damage may
be done to dogs, livestock and
even human beings. Some five
years or more ago Bladen county
had an epidemic of mad foxes
that became so serious that state
authorities were appealed to for
aid. The disease continued to run
its course among the foxes for
three or four years and an occasional
mad animal is still reported.
Reports from Bladen while
the disease was at its worst were
to the effect that the animals
did not hesitate to attack livestock
and human beings.

when it has come time for the

And Danger Of Them
Said To Be Daily Increasing
Forest fire danger is now rapidly

this season of the year. During

3f worry to Co.unty Fire Warden

Some of these fires have been
small with relatively minor damage.
Others have been quite extensive
and as the ground, grass
and brush continue to dry out the
number of fires that do much
damage is expected to increase
unless there is public cooperation
with the officials in an effort to
prevent fires, and to restrain
them if they do break out.

Next week, from February 14

Cape Fear Soil Conservation District.
This district is to be made <
up of Columbus, Brunswick,
Bladen and Pender counties,
! providing these counties wish it.
II There seems to be no question
regarding Columbus, Bladen and
Pender. The folks there know the
good that will result and the ,
general belief is that they will ,
vote overwhelmingly for the Dis- .

Neither is there any question of ,
Brunswick people knowing the j
value of the organization, or of
I their desires to nave this county i
i included. The one fear is that toe ,
' many of our landowners may forget
to mail in their ballots or put
off the mailing until it is too late
for the ballots to be counted.
"Our farmers and land owners
have everything to gain and nothing
to lose by asking with their
votes that Brunswick be included
in the Lower Cape Fear Soil Conservation
District. There is no opposition
