st. Petersburg, Oct. 19.-An an
nouncement from Washington saying
that the administration believed that
the time for mediation in the Far East
ern war; was approaching has created
an unfavorable impression in govern
ment circles here, where there is an
inclination to associate it with the in
terview of the Associated Press with a
diplomat at Toxic suggesting the pro-
priety of renewing the efforts in behalf
of the restoration of peace. The idea
Of peace, it is asserted here, could
hardly come more inopportunely, with
the Japanese in the full flush of VIC
tory. 1t has aroused only resentment
and there is no doubt that if President
Roosevelt should actually attempt to
open the question at this time he would
meet with rebuff. ~ IRA ..

DISEASES OF HENS

Now that his experiments with dis
eased fowls in California have demon
strated the fact that tuberculosis is
one of the most widely prevalent dis
eases in the poultry ranches of the
state, DR.. Archibald R. Ward, veteri-
marian of the University of California
agricultural department, Is pursuing
investigations to discover whether
there is any relationship between this
aid bovine or human tuberculosis,
says the San Francisco Chronicle.
Furthermore, the consideration of the
possible significance of fowl tuber-
culosis has awakened the desire to
know whether or not the deadly or
ganisms are present in the egg. Both
these points are vitally important, and
the animal industries department, in
conjunction with the recently estab-
lished poultry experiment station, will
make careful study of the cases that
are brought to their attention.
DR.. Ward, although just commenced
on these Investigations, has this to
say on the second point: 1T appears
to be true that hens badly infected do
not lay. In the thirty post-mortems of
tuberculosis hens that have come
under the writer's observation only
one hen contained an egg. The thor

jected. renders rather remote the pos
sible danger of human infection by IN
gestion. Careful observation to deter
mine If newly Matched chicks suffer
from tuberculosis will throw light on
the question of tubercle bacilli in
eggs"
Owing to the fact that tuberculosis
in fowls seldom kills a sufficient num-
Der of birds at one time to excite fear,
it's existence in mock hes come to be
regarded as a matter of course and
has attracted little attention from
the owners. Under the conditions OBJ
tanning in the poultry industry in
California, DR.. Ward says that all the
individuals of an infected flock must
be regarded as possible sources of
danger to healthy birds. Taking ad-
vantage of the experience in the con-
troll of tuberculosis in cattle, he says
that it will be easy to raise flock of
healthy chickens, provided they are
kept constantly from contact with dis
eased birds or from land recently
contaminated with tuberculosis fowls.
Since the life of fowl is so short, he
predicts that such a procedure would
result in the eradication of the disease
in three or four years.
