The Massachusetts society for thu
promotion of agriculture has recently
published in book form the results
its thorough investigation as to the in
fectiousness of milk from tuberculou;
COWS. The object was to determine.
especially, whether the infectious ele
ment of tuberculosis ever existed ir
milk from tuberculous cows whose I'D
ders are apparently healthy. Some oil
lightweight guinea pigs were inocu'
lated with milk from Is cows; tubercu.
losis was found in twelve of these pigs,
after using milk from six different
cows. Ninety-five rabbits were in,
oculated, and six of them found with
tuberculosis. Milk of tuberculous
COWS was fed to As rabbits, and two
showed tuberculosis. Twelve piga
were fed on the milk and five produced
positive results, with suspicion in two
others. Twenty-one calves produced
eight with tuberculosis. Circular lie.
tiers were sent out to physicians and
veterinary surgeons, asking whether
they had ever seen case OF
tuberculosis that could be traced
TO the milk supply. Answers
we're received from 991, of which
5S had seen or suspected the ex7
istence of such cases. This is less
than per cent. which the trustees re-
gard as remarkably small. The con-
illusions of the report are as follows:
/. While the transmission of tuber-
culosis by milk is probably not the
most important means by which the
disease is propagated, it is something
to be guarded against most carefully,
2. The possibility of milk from tu-
berculous udders containing the infec-
tious element is undeniable.
8. With the evidence here presented,
it is equally undeniable that milk from
diseased COWS with no appreciable le-
sion of the udder may, and not infre-
quently does, contain the bacillus OF
the disease.
4. Therefore all such milk should be
condemned for food.

FoRr WORM, Tex, Oct. 24.-The
trial of Frank Ware, indicted for the
murder of Martin j. Black by poison
ing, is on hearing. After the exam
inatiOn OF several witnesses, Mrs Mar
tin Black, the wife of the dead
engineer, also indicted for the murder,
took the stand as state witness, to
the surprise ofthe defense. To say
that the entrance of Mrs. Black into
the courtroom created sensation
mildly expressed the situation. In an
instant the drop of pin could have
been heard the court room over.
Sheriff Euless preceded her to the
witness stand. Mrs. Black was at
tired IN a good article of black cash
mere, worn natty, close fitting gloves
of black and her hat was simple and
tasty. Extending from the top of her
head to the floor and thrown loosely
down her back in becoming folds was
II crepe veil, adding much to her nat
ural beauty of both figure and face.
These somber habiiments seemed in
keeping with the solemnity of the oc-
casion and showed of to wonderful
advantage the youthful figure attired
in them and who was on the eve of
unfolding astory, under the solemnity
OF court oath. Ware eyed her
closely rs she entered the room and
mis- hitherto imperturbable counte-
nance blanched While she was tes-
tifying the eyes of the two often met,
but there was not culver, no quail
ing on her part. From start to finish
she never shea tear or showed the
slightest sign OF emotion. Her story
was told IN the same calm tCne from
start to finish She never contradict
ed herself but al all times had reaoy
answer to question: of defendants
counsel. Ware was buoyant in spir-
its till the testimony of Mrs. Black he
gan. Since that time he has been
nervous and restless. The present
trial is pronounced by old practition-
ers to be the most remarkable one in
the history of Texas.

We have a garden around our house
where we try to raise fruits, and flow
,ers, and peas, and beans, and lettuce,
and cucumbers, and such like. But we
have one trouble: there are lots of little
bugs and worms that seem to like our
provisions as well as we do, and that
are always on hand to take their por-
ton. And in fact they sometimes seem
to want to take the whole.
Well, what is to Ire done in such a
case? l will tell you what to do. We
have several little bug catchers, curl
Gus creatures; in color and shape thoy
look almost like lump of earth, and
one would hardly know them from the
clods among which they travel about.
The children see them about the fields
or highways, and wherever they find
one they speedily pick him up and in
vite him to make his home in our gar
den; and so they have their dwellings
in holes and corners about the yard.
The little fellows have queer way of
catching bugs. They have a long,
sticky tongue. though where they keep
it is a mystery, as it seems to be longer
than Its owner. Perhaps they take a
reef in it as the sailors say, and so stow
lit away. But when one of them gets
near a little bug he sits and looks at
him, and winks In a kind of solemn
way till all at once his mouth opens
and quick as flash the tongue goes out
and in again, and the bug is among the
missing! And then our little friend sits
winking and blinking and waiting for
another bug to come that way.
He is said to have an ear for music,
and to do some singing in the warm
spring evenings but We do not count
much on this; nor do we brag much
about his good looks His skin is not
smooth, nor his complexion fair; but for
real usefulness he is about the best kind
of live stock we have ON our farm; and
If people want to keep their gardens
free from bugs the best thing they can
do is to get on friendly terms with the
little toads.-Publisher Our Dumb Ami
