From the last issue of the Fossil Journal, we gather the following con cerning the loss of stock in Wheeler county resulting from the attacks of coyotes infected with rabies: Dr. W. H. Lytle, state veterinarian, and Dr. L. L, Taylor, deputy state veterinarian, were in this vicinity Sunday and Monday inquiring into the rabies cases that have resulted In the death of about 30 head of cattle in this district. They cut out the brains of a calf belonging to Wayne Hamilton and a cow belonging to Chas. Prindle and sent them to Port land to be examined by the state bac teriologist, who has since reported that both animals nad rabies. Mr. Prindle is the heaviest loser, 21 head of his cattle having either died or been killed when in a mad condition. As other cattle running on the range with Mr. Prindle's are not affected, it is practically certain that his cattle must have been bitten bv n marl coyote more than a month ago, before he turned them out of his pasture. Hamilton's pasture adjoins Prindle's. and it is nrobahln Hint v, ...
