Huron quarantined for rabies act as a barrier for rabies "between wild animals and humans." Reports have been confirmed that cattle in the north of Huron County have been placed under quarantine for rabies. Dr, W.J. Thompson, of the Health of Animals Branch, the department of agri- culture office in Seaforth, said one farmer in the north of the county has lost five dairy cattle to the disease. Dr, thompson said in December, the farmer discovered a skunk in the pasture field with the cattle one day at noon. By the time the farmer had returned to his house to get a gun, the skunk had disappeared. The next day, the dead skunk was discovered on the farm and tests confirmed the animal was rabid. There is a 12 day incubation period following contact with a rabid animal. Two days after this period had elapsed, the farmer lost four dairy cattle and a fifth cow died a week later. Dr W.J. Thompson said two other farmers in the north of the county have lost a total of three cattle, who also died from rabies. The doctor reported a cat in Fordwich also Brussels (Continued from Page 1) parking available in the town lots. Coucil heard that the Rural Development Outreach Project was having a general public information meeting regarding transportation problems at St: Andrews Presbyterian Church in Wingham on Grey Council is going to insist that citizens apply for building permits. At the council's January meeting clerk Jane IhrIley was in- structed to have a letter drawn up by the Township solicitor regarding building proved to be rabid. However, Dr. Thompson said there is "northing unusual" about the rabies out- break. He said the disease has been found in the county since 1957 and "we've never really gotten rid of it since then." He said the disease sometimes almost disappears, and then breaks out again. Dr. Thompson said skunks and foxes are the main spreaders of the disease. The veterinarian said one warning sign for farmers might be if they see a fox close to their farm buildings in the daytime, since foxes won't normally come anywhere near either people or dogs. Listowel veterinarian, Dr. Thomas Sanderson, said in this part of the province, "we have to resign ourselves. . .to the constant existenced of a low-grade level of rabies." Residents in the north of Huron County have requested a series of free vaccination clinics for cats and dogs. The clinics will be held in Gorrie, Jan. 10, at 3 p.m to 7 p.m.; Wingham, Jan. 12, 2 to 8 p.m.; Dungannon, Jana 15, 3 to 7 p.m. and council January 20 from 1:30 to 4 p.m. Councillors Elizabeth Graber and Gordon Workman are to attend the seminar for newly elected councillors January 12-13 in Brantford and the four councillors are to attend the Ontario Good Roads Association meeting in Toronto.
