Dr. Sarazins Story...
This Is a continuation of a »lory entitled "Th* Hol* of
the Horse In th* Practice of Medicine.'' written by
Ny**a‘a Pioneer Dr. J. J. Sarasin and published in leaf
weak'* laaue of the Journal.
Another story about Al Long
and the mules which “Uncle
Hub” told me went like this:
Ona day he saw Al trying to
hook up the tub behind a mule,
and the mule kept kicking him,
but Al kept on woiking silently.
••Uncle Hub” said, "Didn’t that
mule hurt you when he kicked
you so much?” Al said, "He
sure did, but I kept quiet as
1 didn’t want him to have the
satisfaction ul knowing he did”.
in conclusion I would like to
tell about “Old Jack”. When
1 first knew him he was a drunk
en saloon bum, always under the
influence of liquor. He wore
rags and sometimes had gunny
sacks or canvas tied with rope
around his feet.
He slept In a dug-out near
the railroad track and swamped
(swept out) the saloons for
enough drinks to keep him
soused and some free lunch tliat
was served in the saloons with
drinks.
One night, while making a
call, I came across “OldJack”
on the railroad track.
He was delirious and very ill
with pneumonia. I took him back
to the saloon and asked if they
could find a room for him so
that 1 could take care of him.
1 got help from the saloon but
I felt it was a hopless case.
However, he got well,
I told him if he'd quit drink
ing 1 would see that he had
plenty of comfortable clothes,
decent quarters to live in and
good food. He promised me he
would stop. The saloon keepers
bought him shoes and clothes.
Mr. Boydell, the merchant,-
gave him a g<xxl warm over
coat,
I fixed a room for him with
plenty of warm bedding, made
arrangements for his food and
he look care of my horses.
He never told me much about
his past except that he’d had
a gixxj education in New York
schools.
He wrote very well, was fond
of reading and read my books
and magazines. He loved and
understood horses and showed
me how to train them.
He
told me he had been a drunk-
ard for over thirty years and
had lost track of what tiad hap
pened for over ten years.
He was very neat and tidy
and could clean windows and
rooms better than anyone 1
ever knew.
He was soon in
demand by the stores and pri
vate residences and received
enough pay to take care of his
needs.
He kept his promise never
to drink and I got him larger
quarters with a heating and
cooking stove where he would
prepare lunch. He became a
respected citizen and one day
I was shocked and saddened to
find him, silling lifeless in a
chair with his newspaper.
He had accumulated a bank
account, government bonds, all
the furniture and clothing he
needed and had no debts.
I
contacted the coroner, told him
the story and with the court’s
permission used his funds to

give him as nice a funeral as
anyone could have had at that
time, with the Presbyterian
minister officiating.
He has
a nice, small tombstone and Is
remembered by me each Mem
orial Day
I wanted to mention him be
cause he was such a help to
me and was responsible, in a
large measure, for caring for
my driving equipment.

Rabies Danger Cited by Vets
Of Agriculture Department
la a 90 -day quarantine nec
essary on an area where a
rabid animal ia found?
Yea, say veterinarians of the
Oregon Department of Agricul
ture, who remind that rablea
in a virus-caused fatal enceph
alitis-type disease to which
most all mammals, including
man, are susceptible.
It may appear from two weeks
to many months after exposure
to a rabid animal bite, but 90
days has been deter mined a safe
and reasonable period for a
quarantine.
The seriousness of the dis
ease was emphasized with the
quarantining of Hayden Island,
in the Portland area, March 16,
after a rabid dog was found
there.
George Coburn, staff veter
inarian for the de(>artment, re
minds that wild life Is always
a known reservoir for rabies
and a rabid dog, when in the
excited state, will attack any
thing moving. This can mean
it wlU transmit the virus not
only to other dogs and to cats
but to wild animals it might
be around , leaving them to
transmit the disease later.
The virus-causing rabies is
present in the saliva of Infected
animals. It is transmitted most
commonly from thebltes of
dogs, cats, skunks, raccoon,
wolves, and vampire and/or
blood-sucking bats.
Swine, cattle, sheep and
horses are also susceptible to
the disease.
Rabid swine will attack al
most anything, including their
own pigs, when they are ex
cited, but Dr. Coburn says the
disease seldom spreads further
when cattle, sheep, or horses,
have it.
Animals may have
either the dumb type, where
they nuzzle and rub humans,
turning to them for help, or
the excited type with which
they will charge anything mov-
Ing.
At a certain stage of [«raly-
sis, one of the symptoms of
the disease and the cause of
death, cattle may appear to
have an object in the throat.
Coburn advises that the owner
consult a veterinarian, if this
happens instead of trying to
determine himself whether
there is something to be re
moved.
There are no known cures
or survivors after clinical
manifestation of rabies has ap
peared, hence control measues
are important.
Recommended control mea
sures, in addition to quaran
tines, are a systematic vac
cination of all dogs, elimina
tion of stray dogs, and eradl-
cation of wild animals which
act as carriers of the disease,
especially fox, skunks and coy
otes.
And for the humans attacked
by a rabid animal, or having an
open wound that the saliva of
the animal may have gotten
into, there are anti-rabies in
jections.
Rabies vaccine Is available
for all classes of livestock and
in event of an outbreak, animals
not regularly given the preven
tive treatment can be given
the vaccine, f or some animals
routine use of the vaccine annu
ally would prove expensive, but

And you alao know you don't get a GS-400 for peanut*.
It** a great car. But it'* juit a little rich for *ome people.
So we *et to work and deaigned the GS-340. It ha* a

interior is clean and simple and taateful. And it has its
own ornamentation, paint job (*ec the rally stripe and

So now you have a car that costs less than the GS-400,
but one with its own special brand of excitement.
How can you beat that kind of a combination?
