foer of domestic animals in the
area have become infected with
rabies, laboratory examination haa
disclosed,. Dr. J. C. MacLennan,
of the health of animals branch,
told The Expositor 'Tuesday.
-Dr. MacLennan said proven cas-
es included a horse at Kirkton, a
pig at Henget and .two dogs at,
• Bayfield, as well as several foxes.
The fact that dogs- have become
