pasteurized Milk May Cause Brucellosis Fever
By DR.. THOMAS D. MASTERS or . Times Special Writer v 2 army has prohibited the use of unpasteurized or raw milk, doctor will prescribe its use. One of the many reasons for this
the threat of Brucellosis.
ih America, where it has been rcogrized for less than 40° been prevalent in the Mediterranean basin for centuries. called Mediterranean or Malta fever, because it was
8 discovered and remains em‘there. sources of the infection arg
~ Dr. Masters and various surveys have shown that from 10 to 20 per cent of the ho fle in the United States are ve been infected. tely, only about 5 per cent of the animals giving a positive reaction excrete the organism in the milk. As an economic problem, Bang’s disease, or abortion disease, has surpassed tuber_ftulosis. Brucellosis may develop _@ny time between one arM five weeks afier exposure. . | - r Symptoms of Disease | “X The disease is extremely variable in its manifestations. There are two chief forms, the acute and the chronic, and they are so’
completely dissimilar that it is ‘ difficult to realize that they are the same disease. : Acute Brucellosis is characterfzed by fever, chills, and sweats. Headache and aching in the joints and muscles are common, The Saleen, and lymph glands usually enlarge. Weakness and exhaustion ‘are frequent.
Although this disease is cteadily
At the outset, the symptoms may be confused with influenza or typhoid fever. After 10 days or so, the symptoms may subside, only to return after a brief interval. This tendency to remissions is responsible for the name undulant fever, which is frequently employed. The chronic form of the disease, which sometimes succeeds the acute*stage, but may occur without a preceding acute stage, is so vague and elusive that its recognition is extremely difficult. There may be little or no fever. Weakness, increased fatigue, headache, shifting pains in the muscles and Joints, nervouspess, apprehensiveness, depression, and emotional instability are the only symptoms.
Chronic Phase
The chronic phase does not usually cause complete incapacitation, but results in chronic ill‘health and greatly reduced efficiency. This stage of the disease may resemble tuberculosis or the psychoneuroses, and mistakes in the diagnosis may be made both ways, unless a very careful study is made, and includes . both laboratory and clinical tests. The problem becomes even more complicated when the infection localizes in any part of the body, under which circumstances it produces pneumonia, arthritis, and a long list of other conditions. There are several methods of treatment, and their indications vary with the stage of the disease. None is’ specific. None is so effective that methods of preven-
tion can be relaxed.

signs of similar disaster, J. H, Amington, Indianapolis meteorologist, said today that “we can stand some rain here.” fall in Marion county is 1.45 inches short' of normal for August, which is almost as much as the shortage for the entire year. The total lack of rainfall since Jan. 1 is 1.96 inches. Although local crops are not in serious danger yet, the farmers in the southern pocket area stand to lose 40 to 50 per cent of their corn crop unless rain comes soon,
Hold Mass at Evansville At St. Agnes church in Evansville, the center of the pocket area,
a special mass was said for the farmers’ ajd, and farmer parish-
joners of St. Boniface church have
said prayers for rain A. M. Bishea, Variderburgh county agricultural agent, has warned farm-
|ers of the fire peril in the dry brown
pastures. Even breeding stock is being marketed due to lack of feed and James Mitchell, manager of the Evansville Producers’ Commission association, predicted a serious ‘beef shortage before Jan. 1 for that reason. Corn is parching in the flelds under temperatures close to 102 degrees, and the Evansville area has had only traces of rain for over six weeks. Only .12 of an inch has fallen this month. In the area swept by the Wabash river floods this spring, the early corn has developed well, but the drought threatens: to prevent the maturity of the late plantings. To protect their livestock Warrick county farmers are hauling water from Boonville, and grain dealers report that the corn crop in the
Spencer - Warrick - Pike-Dubois area
will suffer 50 per cent damage.

LEBERS ROUND OUT 50TH YEAR
Prominent Hoosier Pays Tribute to Wife-on : Anniversary.
In 1869, 9-months-old Richard Lieber heard the first rumblings of war as his home town of St. Johann-Saarbrucken, Germany,
was bombed in the Franco-Prussian war. : Twenty-five years ago the same Richard Lieber, then a grown man, and his wife celebrated their silver wedding anniversary, while a son was fighting. overseas in world war IT. Today Col. and Mrs. Lisi are quietly observing their golden wedding date amid the chaos of another war, and the colonel says, “If I'm not used fo war, I'm at least inured to war.”
Happy, Peaceful Life
In spite of the wartime shadows around them, the Liebers’ 50 years of marriage have been happy and peaceful ones. She was 18 and he was 23, an up-and-coming Indianapolis newspaperman, when they were married here in 1893. It wasn’t until 1919, however, that he found his niche in the world and started on’ the career which has been the consuming interest of his life. In 1919, Col. Lieber was named state conservation director, and until 1933, when. he retired, he devoted himself to the protection and preservation of natural wealth. He became known as the father of Indiana’s state park system, but Col. Lieber explains that conservation: is his main interest and the parks ‘merely his show windows. Have Three Children Meanwhile, - Mrs. Lieber, according to her husband, was being “a most excellent wife and mother and a magnificent housekeeper.” ‘There were three children, Walter, Ralph and Jeannette. Jeannette, . now . Mrs. Norman Hodgson Baker of Fergus Falls, Minn., arrived yesterday to join in the golden wedding celebration at 3119 N. Meridian st. Ralph lives here, and Walter died after serving in the last war. His two sons are now in world war II. Col. Lieber bases the success of their marriage on two principles: “In our long family history, extending : over hundreds and hundreds of years, there has been not one divorce,” he says. .“Second, with all the vicissitudes and uncertainties in life, if the people would center on their children as their own way of living on, there would mot ‘be 'so ‘many’ splitups. The children suffer, and when |olis. children suffer, the country suffers, and with that all humanity. »
