WHAT THE THEATER SHOULD BE.
"What the theater of today is

"What the theater of today is
suffering from more than coarse
ness is commercialism. Merit is
measured by money. OF course,
the box Office is a criterion which
has been appealed to by no less an
artist than was Mr.. Richard Mans
field. But it should not be made
the chief end. The theater through
misuse or nonuse is handicap to
civilization; we'll used, it is one of
its chief factors. The church deals
with spiritual Kings concerning the
life to come; the theater should
deal with spiritual things concern
ing this life. 1t has no lower mis-
sion. Women have helped much
in making it. If in the future they
can help still more they will serve
their country and the world. For
men get their ideas and ideals from
the theater to very large extent,
and good theater means good men
and women, although the non
theater going public does not real
ize the strength of this force. -

Denison, Tex, Sept. 49,
According to statement issued
by the Denison Board of Trade,
the fruit and truck farmers in
the vicinity of Denison have
been doing rather extensive
and quite profitable canning
business this year.
Nine of these home canneries
have been operated in the vicin-
ity of Denison and the output
aggregates in the neighborhood
OF 10000 cans, of which prob
ably $4,000 were peaches, the
remainder being tomatoes, black

high class in every respect and
equal to some OF the best brands
from the canning.

REBUILDING A TUBERCUL0US
HERD,

The work performed by the New York
experiment station during tho past six
years in the direction Of restoring the
health of head of dairy COWS which
had been shown 10 be affected with tu-
berculosis is of interest Late in 1900
the tuberculin test showed more than
half of the animals in the station herd
at Geneva to be tuberculous-a discov-
cry at onco surprising and dishearten-
ing. Many of the affected animals were
in excellent physical condition, so far
as all outward appearances were con
cerned. They were animals of excel
lent breeding, aud they were needed to
carry on experimental work /; so it was
decided not to slaughter them outright,
but to attempt the restoration of sound
herd, using the pasteurized milk from
the reacting animals as needed in the
dairy and benefting by their good breed
ing in raising calves from them
This method involved in the separa-
ton of the herd into sound and tuberc
ulous sections by the tuberculin test,
isolation of the reacting animals, disin-
lection Of the stables, keeping the two
sections in separate quarters under the
care of different attendants, removal of
calves from reacting animals soon after
birth, feeding them on milk frcm the
healthy animals or on milk from the
other herd pasteurized to destroy the
tuberculosis germs, and regular testing
of the sound herd to detect and remove
and new cases that might develop.
Many obstacles were encountered that
interfered with rapid renewal Of the
herd. Burning Of the barns destroyed
some stock, lack Of room led to lessen
ing the number of COWS, contagious
abortion prevented the raising of calves
one year, and some of the COWS produc-
ed only bull calves. Notwithstanding
these mishaps, four years from the ap-
plication of the method saw the healthy
herd again 80 in number. In this time 25
animals had been replaced, IL calves
coming from the ID healthy COWS and
IA cows from the II diseased animals.
In commenting on the result the sta
ton authorities contend that this work
was carried out in the face of as many
natural difficulties as can ordinarily be
expected in an average dairy. 1t is
accordingly believed that with good care
the rebuilding of similar herd can be
regularly accomplished in from three tc
five years.
