of Interest were discussed, among
them being a letter from the secre
tary of the National Rabbit Breeders'
association, of Chicago, In regard to
the disease called "tularemia," which
has appeared in this valley among
the wild rabbits. He has taken the
problem up with the U. 8. public
health service and the bureau of bio
logical survey of Washington D. C,
and they have demonstrated and
proved that domestic rabbits have
never been known to be affected with
the disease "tularemia," as It Is
strictly a wild animal disease. He
also stated that It can only be com
munlcted to man by handling and
skinning the wild rabbits.
Two cases of this disease were re
ported from Central Point by men
w,ho had Bklnned the wild rabbits.
This report had a tendency to affect
the rabbit Industry throughout the
valley.
After the meeting a social hour
was enjoyed at which a good time
was reported by all.
