injecting into the vein of the animal n
mail quantity OF n suspension OF tu-
Oerclo bacilll nonvlrulent OF cattle.
This procedure was repeated several
lines with gradually ascending guam
| titles. The immediate effect was to
produce n passing fever which did not
Icriously annoy the animal.
To prove the efficacy or this treat
ment four healthy animals were So
cured and two were vaccinnted. Then
The four were inoculated with virulent
tubcrclc bncilla. At tho expiration OF
nearly year the inoculated cnttle

Eastern Farmers as beef Haisers.
Referring TO the public discussion OF
the so called beef trust this season. the
well known Missouri breeder OF Here
ford cattle Il. II. Il. Sotham wrote to
American Agricultural that in his
opinion the late summer movement OF
grass fed cattle would only partly re-
lieve the beef famine. "There Will not
then be normal supply OF beef" he
wrote. "and the shortage Will be more
apparent when the promised bumper
crop OF corn makes feed cheap and de-
creases the necessity OF the farmer to
SELL The time has come at last when
the price OF beef warrants the eastern
farmer entering into the ranks of the
beefmakers. The supply OF American
beef has been overtal1en and passed
by the demand. We OF the west ask
you OF the east To acquicsce in the In
evitable and TO be thankful with US
that the price OF beef now insures the
American farmer suitable profit, and
the occupation OF all the heretofore
open territory Of the United States,
Canada and Mexico makes the future
Increase OF cattle. IL there is to be an
Increase, healthy and normal one
that will not be able to keep pace with
the requirements of an increasing pop
ulation and foreign demand"

In answer the Gazette says: "If A

the buyer suffers as direct result OF
