Antirabic Inoculations at Barcelona. —Dr. Ferran, who 
has charge of the pathological laboratory at Barcelona, has treat¬ 
ed eighty-five cases of rabies by inoculation, without a death. 
Twenty-five of the patients had been bitten by animals positively 
known to be rabid. At first Dr. Ferran carried out the inocula¬ 
tion of his rabbits according to Pasteur’s method, i.e., by trephin¬ 
ing. Recently, however, he has adopted a new, and, as he believes, 
an improved plan, viz., the injection of a single drop of the emul¬ 
sion of the medulla containing the virus into the anterior chamber 
of the rabbit’s eye. This produces exactly the same effects in 
about the same time as the trephining method.— Medical Record. 
Glanders in Nebraska. —State Veterinarian J. Gerth reports

Exeunt Bunny? —It is announced that three agents of Pasteur 
have sailed for New South Wales with the hen cholera microbes 
to inoculate and exterminate rabbits in Australia. 
A Stitch in Time. ; —It is stated that Dr. M. E. Johnson, as¬ 
sistant state veterinarian, was called a few days ago to Derby, 
Lucas Co., Iowa, where he found six cows, five hogs, three horses, 
and several dogs suffering from hydrophobia. He ordered that 
the animals be killed.—— Rational Live Stock Journal.
