of a single tost doso on a souud nn'unal systcm."
Dr. l'earson, of tlio I'onusr'rniiin Station
says in discussing tlio probnblo dimger from
the uso of tiibcreulin: "Tlio oxperiunco of tlio
Stato Agricultiirnl Experiiiicnt Stntion licrd is

. From Dr. M. Stnlker, Stato vetorinarian of
Iowa: "Injeetions of tiiberculiii catuiot pro
dueo tubeiciilosis.nor nro tbe results harmftil."
Tlie Euiopean Vcterinary Congress in refor
ring to tuberculin says: "Thero is no reason
for obiecting to its gcncral nppllcation on tlio

Lerculoiis lesions. Thero nced uo 110 foar llia

From tlio Interniitioiial Congrcss of Hygicno.
beld nt Undnpest: "Tho committeo aro ngreed
tliat tiiberculiii is a vcry valttablo nssistant in
tlie discovcry of tuberculosis. Tlio occnsional
failmes in dingnosis for whicli it is rcspousiblo
nrc without praetical si(:iiifieaiico."
II N. Avery, M I) in rcport to city conncil
of Minneapolis, says of tuborciilin: 'Wlien
injected into a ligaltliy nninial 110 rcaction oo
eurs and no ell'ect is produced on tlio Iioaltli of
tho aninial citber immediatly or subseciuent
ly Fioin tlio Association of Now England Catllo
Comuiis.sionei's: "As a body we beartily on

tho detention of tubpiculosis in cattlc. Wo
nlso further bclievo tliat 110 hariu whatover
comes fium its uso in animals that aro freo
finm tu orculosis."
Tho followiiic is nn extrnct from n letter
from Dr D. E. Sdmon, chicf of tho Buroau of
Animnl lndustry at Wnsliington, D. C: "Ito
poits rcceived of over 15.0IX) liealtliy cattlo
tliat have bcen injected witli tho bureau tubev
cnliu fail to indicato tliat in any instanco tho
ise of tuberciilin catised tho slightost troublo
in theso animals. . . . Witli refcienco to
tho amomit of tubcrculin ncccssary to kill a
cow as compared witli tlie nniount necessary to
kill a guinea pig ono pound in wcight, tho
tjuantity is euprmoiis. Uased on our experi
enco witli guinea pigs; it would bo necessary
tliat a cow 700 pounds m weiglit should receivo
ut ono injectiou four and ono-half gallons of
tuberculin, wliile a cow of 1,000 pounds weiglit
vould rcquire six nnd one-lialf gallonsof tuber
culin. It is, tberofore, absurd to supposo that
the quantity of tuberculin whicli is ordinarily
uscd to test tho condition of a cow should cause
any injury. 'i'he iujections of tuberculin could
jievcr givo riso to tuberculosis if tho tuberculin
is properly inepared, and in caso of poisoning
by tho large ainount indicated tho death would
bo duo to ncuto intoxication.
Between Noveniber, lb'JJ, nnd Fcbruary,
18!Ki, a cow at our station bas received iujec
tions of tuberculin amouiitiiig nltogether to
2,tiD2cc. ller condition at present is better
than it has been nt any tinio since slio nrrived
nt tho station. In May, 1S!0, two cos rcceiv
ed iujections of 100 cc. eacli of tubcrculin, tho
samo as wo send ont for iiijecting cattlo. IJotli
covis wero thrco to four moutlis ndvnnccd in
pregnaney nt tho time. Neithor appeared to
Biifler as a result of tho injectiou; botli produc
ed good calves, and both cows nre, at tho pres
ent time, in first class condition.
"Althougli no experinicuts are rccorded of
vyork dono abroad in whicli sucli largo quanti
ties of tuberculin havo been injected into tho
nnimalg, tlio reports of cases wlicro tuberculin
bas been used for diaguostic jiurposes havo in
dicated that tliis test is satisfactory, and no
eonimonts as to injurious etl'ects from tho uso
of tiiberculiii upou liealtliy animals liavo been
mnde.
"Annnur others Dr. Iiang of Denmark, au
cntbusiastio suppoiter of the uso of tubciculin,
reports tlio testing of over 8,000 animals, but
iloesnot mention or lefer to any possiblo inju
xious eil'ects from tho uso of tuberculin.
"Theso facts servo to sliow conclnsively that
tuberculin, in a quantity uscd for diagnostio
purposes is perfectly harmless."

Of courao, ovory ono ln tbo Stato wants to
