HOW Tuberculosis May Be Transmit.
ted To Man From Cows.

EDITOR ARGUS:
Since coming to G%oldsboro you have
become interested in my profession
and think an article from the pen OF q
vetinarian would be of some value and
this subject. because it comes home to
every one of US.
You can readily see by the begin
ming hat there is a close relation be-
tween my profession and the human
being. Rightly there should he. for
animals, and a proper protection of
them means the proper protection OF
the humans. Therefore, l feel that We
as vetinarians, should let a few things
we know be known.
I will take it hat the readers viii!

the bovine to the human; any Ii be-
leiving different they Will have another
side to prove, or disprove the estab-
lished fact.

the only way, for much t~uberculous
meat is eaten. SO many times the

observer, and when you cut off the

There are many more diseases that

may discuss sometime, it the editor
thinks them OF enough interest.
These few lines are written in order
that the people may think sometimes
about their food and whence it canl".
We have a right to know q few things
about whether our God is infectious or
not, that is, is our milk coming from
tuberculous animals, or is our meat
from animals affected with ubercul

"As a general thing, I have been op-

been for a long time, a well-established
family medicine with Us, upon which

Quite a relief to learn your cough,

sure she had consumption, but a spe-
ciallst in lung diseases found her lungs
were all right-the cough came from
coffee. She writes:
Il had a very bad cough that refused
to WELD to medicine. After five months
doctoring with my home doctor and
fearing consumption, I consulted a
specialist who examined my lungs thor

nervous, also.

left off coffee and began to use Postum.

BILL TO HIT TRUSTS
VIA TARIFF ROUTE
Senator Frazier Would Let
President Suspend Inn
port Duty.

Senator Frazier Of Tennessee today in
troduced IN the Senate one OF the most
interesting antitrust bills of the ses-
sion. II is a measure which authorizes
the President. in his discretion, TO sus-
pend the collection Of custom duties
upon imports when, In his judgment, he
is convinced, after investigation, that
the collection of these duties will
amount 10 a protection OF monopoly in
this country.
The purpose Of the bill is to prevent
the big protective interests from eXtort-
ing excessive prices under the cover Of
the tariff schedules. 1t is understood
that q number of Democratic Senators
will insist upon pressing The measure.
The fact that II places SC much aU-
thOrity in the hands OF tho President
however, is considered to make il diff
ficult OF passage. At any rate, IT Is fig
ured that II will open the tariff question
and viii result in a lively discussion Of
a new phase of legislation.

Taft's Friends Angered
By Favoritism Charge;
Dinner to Him Tonight

Secretary Tafts friends in the House
are angry today because Of the report
that has been circulated describing Mr.
Taft as a man who has used Federal pa
tronage in Ohio to help along his Presi-
Dental boom. They point out that he
has. had practically nothing to do with
Federal patronage in his State. as both
Of the state machines have been against
him, and the oficehOlders In Ohio have
had either Senator Dick or Senator For
aker to thank for the favors they have
enjoyed
Mr. Taffs friends go further, and say
he has had less TO do with patronage in
his state than have the other Presiden-
tial candidates in their respective states.
The entire Ohio delegation in the
House is here today in preparation Tor
the dinner il vii give tonight with Sec
retarv Taft as the only guest.
It Is given out that the dinner is
merely a social affair, out politics viii
