The fact that a quarantine has been ordered in Kenosha county may do much to prevent the spread of the disease to this county, how-- ever. The order provides that an dogs in the counties under quaran-- tine be kept muzzlec er confined on the premises of the owners dhuring the 90--day period. Several deaths of persops bitten by animgls have teen reported in six Wisconsin counties during the past few weeks. The disease has not tbeen confined to dogs but tests of heads of a pig,. a cat and a horse have shown that all were rabid. 1t is believed, however, that these ani mals were infectea when bitten by dogs. * Deve)opment of rabies in such a widesfiread manner at this season of the year is causing much comment tut experts in the treatment of rabfese contend that cold weather is no protection. The popular tradition of dog days has no foundation, in fact, they contend. There is some wonderment as to the failure of the disease to crose the state lige before this time.
