Exhibit Of Constructive Cattle at the Fair.

| use the words "consumptive cat
tie" because so many do not seem to
know that tuberculosis is what we know
as consumption. DIR. Russell wishes
that this be advertised as Joint tuber-
culosis demonstration of the state live
stock sanitary board and the Wisconsin
college of agriculture. DR.. Roberts,
state veterinarian, and representive
of the agricultural college. win be
present and give this demonstration.
DIR. Russell does not think it practicable
to give his lecture with lantern slides,
but he saws, "we will need for the pur-
pose of this demonstration from an
hour and half to two hours time, and
definitely assigned time should be
given out on the program and the mat
ter advertised distinctly as to the hour.
We dc not want to run counter at
traction to the horse races and would
suggest that the demonstration be set
for one O'Clock. A lecture on the gen
eral subject of tuberculosis, how it
spreads, what the tuberculin test is and
how it is applied will be given in con-
nection with this post-mortem demon
stration and there wants to be a SUI
ficient amount of time so there will be
a chance to answer questions raised by
farmers
DR.. Russell would not test cattle at
the fair Ger the reason that the nor
NAL temperatures of animals that are
tested outside their usual environment
are so tluctuating that it would give
unsafe results. We are to be in Chip
pewa Falls the day prior to the date of
your demonstration and go to Vlroqua
from that direction Remember the
date, Thursday, September Is, at |
O'Clock sharp. Three cattle to be Kill
ed and diseased organs shown.
