FARMERS HERDS INSPECTED.

caution Against Tuberculosis.

caution Against tuberculosis.
Assistant State Veterinarian f. j.
Neiman has completed the tuberculin
test in four herds belonging to farmers
living In the neighborhood of Green
Mountain The farmers have been inn
pressed with the Importance of pro-
tecting their own families from the
dangers that Turk in impure milk, and
their customers who use butter made
from their milk.
b. B. Kimball, living one and one
half miles northeast of Green Noun
tain, in Marion township, had nine
head inspected, and all passed the test.
Roy Thompson, of Marion township,
had four cows tested, and two re-
acted. Harry Thompson, of Maiion, had
three condemned out of five inspected,
and in the herd of A. Bingaman. in the
edge of Vienna township, three were
inspected and all passed.
Perhaps none of the farmers who
applied for the inspection had the oc-
casion to fear the onslaughts of tuber-
culosis as Mr. Kimball He had passed
thru one experience in his family that
was directly due to infected milk. 1t
was the case of his sister in law, Miss
Emma Carter, whose mind gave way
and resulted in her being taken to the
state hospital at Independence for
treatment. While there she contracted
pulmonary tuberculosis, and her death
ensued The recent examination of the
independence herd, in which a large
percentage was found to show tubercu-
lar LESSONS, is the clearest kind of an
explanation, to Mr.. kimball's mind, as
to the cause of his sisters death.
