Death occurs after a few days' illness. ■Certain variations may occur in the illness, and the paralytic symptoms may be more promin­ ent, with little or none of the earlier “furious” behaviour. « The Dog Tax and Live Stock Protection Act provides for by­ laws to be passed by local muni­ cipalities fol* the licensing of dogs and the control of any run­ ning at large. No doubt, your council already has such legisla­ tion. Dog owners might be re­ minded ’by councils when buying tags that rabies vaccination is advisable for then’ pets, especial­ ly if the dogs are allowed to run on ia farm or are used for hunting. The new anim'al vac­ cine for rabies is safe and may be secured at nominal cost from a practicing veterinarian. Not only dogs, but cats, foxes, wolves and other warm-blooded animals .may carry rabies. Live­ stock may become infected by attacks from rabid animals. People Who Can Help There are special people • in your area who can help wben rabies threatens. For example, in Die case of illness in pets and livestock, a veterinarian can ad­ vise the owner; in the case of wildlife, a conservation officer of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests is ready to assist; where stray dogs or cats show strange behaviour, the police should be notified. Tiie final authority, however, with regard to rabies in animals, is the Health of Animals Divi- ston of the 'Canada Department of Agriculture, It was this Divi­ sion that ordered compulsory ■Vaccination foi* 'all dogs in North­ ern Alberta when rabies had seriously increased there several years ago. The vaccinations were performed, free of change by •their officers, Other measures, such as reduction, of wildlife ■carriers — coyotes, Coxes, etc., were organized in co-operation Predict Beets Bigger Crop At the end of six days of con­ tracting, Canada and Dominion 'Sugar Co. reports farmers al­ ready have signed for 41% of last year’s total contracted acre­ age. 'Company fieldmen report sugar 'beet contracts are in” brisk demand, growers already having signed for 8,320 acres-— more than 3,000-acre increase over same time a yeax* ago. Average acres-per-grower are up substantially, and in addition company representatives say hun­ dreds who didn’t plant last year intend to grow sugar beets in 1956. Company officials say these early results strengthen their be­ lief sugar beet plantings this spring will be up at least 50% over with provincial and municipal Authorities, and a splendid job w®s done. The Health of Ani­ mals office for this county is situated in the Post Office build­ ing, Seaforth, telephone Notify them of all mal rabies. Should a human a rabid, or suspect wash the wound promptly with soap and water and place the patient under the care of a /physician. Notify the Medical Officer of Health. DO NOT SHOOT OR DESTROY TH® DOG OR ANIMAL WHICH ATTACK­ ED. The animal, however, should be confined in a safe place under veterinary supervision for at least 14 /days. The premature killing. of the animal might pre­ vent accurate diagnosis of rabies. Since .rabies vaccination of hu­ mans is still a serious procedure and no.t without complications, physicians do not wish to pro­ ceed with it unless the danger is real. (School boards might instruct ■pupils to keep dogs at home, and parents should warn children to beware of stray, friendly and vicious animals. 372. cases. of ani- ue bitten by rabid animal, Mrs. M.

More and more riding clubs are coming into being each year and many times there is a desire to join these associations. Some places in United States have formed country wide or regional associations so that riding clubs can have get togethers and dis­ cuss problems of mutual interest. It is the aim of the association to promote competitive good will and better horsemanship and to encourage the raising of suitable horses and work toward the im­ provement of riding clubs as a Whole. Trails rides are very popular In areas that are suitable, pre­ ferable mountain country that usually offers' water for both horse and rider plus scenery. In some cases endurance is put to a test on these rides. The horses are judged for fitness by 'quali­ fied officials at 'the end of a trail ride which in somA- instances ex­ ceeds 200 miles. If necessary, feed is taken in advance for horses and all the meals for riders are taken to a place on a travelled road and the trail riders come to this point to camp overnight ahd have their meals. , This may not be done in our area but we hope for the time when if it becomes popular in Canada we can have a club form­ ed that Is ready to join in either trail rides or competition, If you- can get a horse you will fie able to enjoy such activity for the sldgan is this: "The out­ side of a horse is good for the inside o£ a man.” A conservation club in Exeter 0Oiil<I do many things to main­ tain existing natural resources and reactivate and further devel­ op the fishing, hunting, trapping etc.'in this area with a well-or- ganlzed conservation club.
