CURE FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Prof. Won Behring Partially Explains
His Discovery, but VIII Keep
IL Secret Until Fail.

BERLIN, Feb. S.--Prof. Emil Won Beh-
ring, the discoverer of the diphtheria
serum, addressing the German agricultural
council today. announced his determination
to adhere to the resolution which he pro-
mulgated In Paris Of keeping his tubercu-
loss remedy secret till the autumn.
The professor discussed longthily the
method of preventing consumption by Inn
munizing milch cows. The aim Is to secure
milk having immunizing properties. He
claims to have approximately solved this
problem. Cows are treated when very
young with a fluid, which Prof. Behring
calls tuberculase. 1t is injected under the
skin of the young cows repeatedly for two
to four weeks. The remedy at first was
very costly, because it was almost impos-
sible to preserve 1t in good condition, but
n method has recently been discovered by
which 1t can he preserved satisfactorily
and at a moderate cost.
Prof. Bchring also treated cows which
showed yirulent -type of- tuberculosis In
their milk, but the baccill disappeared
after several weeks treatment. His theory
is that children fed on milk from cows
rendered immune through his treatment be-
come themselves immune.

As TO the reason for his expulsion he re-

money. no matter from where or in what

Taigny shrugged his shoulders and pro-
fessed not to have much knowledge of the

1T is an extremely difficult country to

mountainous and though Caracas is from

the road to the capital is about twenty-five
miles and easily defensble.
The people love nothing better than a
