Harvey Warns Hunters of Tularemia

After One Death in State Is Reported

Tularemia, a disease caused by ing

season, November,

handling the carcasses of wild rab-| and January. A few cases also are bits and other game, already has | reported in February and March,

caused one death in Indiana this fall and five other cases have been reported, Dr. Verne K. Harvey, State Health director, announced today. In a warning to hunters, Dr. Harvey said the “tired rabbit” that can be caught and killed by a dog or beaten or ned to death usually is infected. “The disease germ can enter through skin or eye, but usually it gets into the blood stream through an abrasion,” he said. “The incubation period is from two to five days. “First symptom usually is an ulcer bn the surface of the skin. This is followed by swelling of the glands, high fever, body pains, headaches and nausea. Serum Discovered

“This disease is very serious. PerBons usually are critically ill for months, and sometimes the infection continues for a year. Diagnosis is easily made through laboratory tests of the blood. A serum for the disease recently has been discovered, and promises the most hope for successful treatment.” This disease, he said, is named after Tulare County, Cal, where it first was studied in 1911-12. It was thought for a time it could only be caused by bites from deer-flies. “Subsequent investigations,” Dr. Harvey said, “showed most of the infections came from handling wild rabbits. The disease also can be contracted from quails and pheasants.”

Few Cases in Spring

He pointed out that domestic rabbits do not have the disease. Cases in Indiana are reported concurrently with the months of the hunt-

7-FOOT FLOWER FOUND IN TROPICS

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 25 (U. P.)— Flowers taller than a man were reported encountered by Paul Allen, manager of the tropical station of the Missouri Bontanical Gardens at Balboa, Canal Zone, on his return from an expedition into the intérior. The specimen was an Aristolochi, which Allen described as the largest he had ever seen. “In all “truth,” he said, “this plant had a flower measuring seven feet eight inches from the top of the flower to the tail.”

TWO-MINUTE CHECK PROTESTED 5 HOURS

GRANTS PASS, Ore. Nov. 25 (U. |

P.)—Because he was in a hurry, James Gullett of San Diego refused to let state border inspectors check Ine automobile at Crescent City, When border officials insisted it was necessary, he locked his car from the inside in a sit-down protest. After five hours he decided he was still in a hurry and unlocked the car for the inspectors. The inspection took two minutes.

The death this year was reported in Dubois County. One case each was reported from Allen, Jasper, Miami, Noble and Sullivan Counties. There were 13 cases last year, but no deaths, records showed. Dr. Harvey said the disease usually is not fatal.
