INSPECTION OF DAIRIEs.
IN Important Subject Upon Which Sen.
dtors Do Not A0ree.


dtors DO Not Agree.
SACRAMENTO, CAL, Feb. 17.-Dairy
inspection and incident thereto the extir-
patton of cattle infected with bovine
tuberculosis, was the subject OF quite a
lively discussion in the Senate to-day.
Senate bill 1S2 by Dickinson was up for
third reading.
Dickinson at once took the wind out OF
the sails of the strongest opponents to the
measure by offering an amendment strik-
ing out the clause providing for compen-
sation to owners for cattle condemned
and slaughtered by authority of the in
spectors. He also asked leave to amend
by cutting the $45, 900 in half.
Braunhart, who sees an opportunity for
opposition oratory in every thing that
emanates from Republican, whether in
order or not, took the floor and spoke
against the measure as whole. With his
Quixot-like Imagination he saw danger
in the provision fixing the compen sation
of veterinary surgeons and inspectors at
$5 day for each day actually employed.
His active but faulty mental vision saw
each county burdened with $40 day,
though there is no requirement which
makes this possible. Both the number
OF veterinaries and the number OF inspec-
tors is left 10 the discretion of the State
Dairy Bureau.
He was also opposed to the provision
that the work of dairy inspection should
be left to the Dairy Bureau, who were all
dairymen, and who, he claimed. would
not be likely to order the condemna ton
of their own cattle when they were not to
receive compensation for the animals
slain. Then he assumed to be affrig hted
at the possibility of claim against the
State for SLAIN cattle, and lastly, entered a
protest against the section which repealed
all acts in conflict with the one under con-
sideration. This provision, he pointed
out, would tie the hands of all boards of
supervisors and county boards of health
so tar as dairy inspection was concerned.
Senator Gillette opposed the amend
ment. He cited the States of New York
and Massachusetts in which com pensation
was given for condemned diseased ami
mails, and said that a similar policy should
be pursued in California.
Senator Smith spoke on behalf of the
dairymen of Kern and San Luis Gb:spo
counties, none of them, he declared. had
expressed themselves in favor of the
measure, though q director of the State
Dairy Bureau resided in San Luis Obispo
County. lie believed the danger from
tuberculosis was greatly exaggerated, and
quoted Professor Alvord of the United
States Bureau of Animal Industry to
show that even when cattle were affected
with tuberculosis they might still be yalu-
able for breeding purposes, and that their
milk might be safely used If sterilized.
For this reason he argued that if such
cattle are killed they should be paid for.
He added that the tuberculin test was

Long Game of Dominoes.

Two men in Boston club have been
for the last six years playing a contin.
uous game of dominoes. They have no
regular time for playing, and go 20 the
club with no particular intention of re-
Stunning the game, but when both hap.
pen to be there with spare time or. their
hands they commence at the point
where they left off. The stake for
which they play is small. but one of the
two is already far ahead of the other
lie is. in fact, 81 GOO ahead, and. as nc
limit has been set for the game, this SUM-
is still subject to the hazards Of sport,
and the loser has not lost hope of re.
coupling himself. Most of the playing
is done i'm the late afternoon, and the
diversion is continued as a relief from
the uncertainty of falling into the club
and finding nothing engrossing to do
With the dominoes at hand and the
$1,000 depending upon its outcome, this
casual game Is regarded as fulfilling its
work very successfully. - Chicago
