The long Santa Fe wooden bridge
at Devore, California, recently badly
burned, is to be covered with a gravel
from red hot sparks from brake shoes
dropping on the timbers. 1t is planned
to block the spaces between the ties
and on top of this solid wood surface
gravel to the depth of W inches is
to be spread. There are a lumber of
bridges ON the division which are ball
last decked with rock but none with
gravel. With this gravel protecting
the wooden timbers beneath. it will be
impossible for fire to catch from
brake shoe sparks or broken parts
from passing trains dropping onto the
combustible material. This bridge is
1,100 feet in length and on several oc-
casions has had narrow escapes from
total destruction, the fire recently
burning several hundred feet.

TOBtRCUL|NE TESTS
Treatment of the Dairy Herds
Of Wayne County Will
Start Tomorrow.
METHOD IS INTERESTING

Now that cold weather has appar-
emily arrived for keeps" the tuber-
culine test in cattle will probably be
commenced tomorrow, according to d
statement made by City Health Off
Ger DR.. Charles S. Bond this morn
ing A quantity of the extract from
the tuberculine bachili has arrived
and everything is now in readiness for
the test. 1t is expected that about
10 to Is percent of the cattle of
Wayne county will be found afflicted
with tuberculosis this year.
The method employed in examining
the cattle is very simple but is de-
cidedly interesting process. Two Gu
bic centimeters of tuberculine are in
jected into the COW, her temperature
first being taken and unless found to
be normal the test is not made. The
animals temperature is taken about
eight hours afterwards and if afflicted
with the dread disease, will be three
to four degrees above normal. The
cow is then ordered killed and sub
jected to inspection. The milk from
any COW where even a trace of tuber.
culosis is discovered, will not be per-
mitted to be sold in this city.
1t is impossible to determine just
how long a time the test will require
but it is thought it will take the great
er part of the winter at least. During
inclement weather or in. very severe
cold spells the test must necessarily
be abandoned. The examination will
be made by DR.. Bond and Dairy In.
spector DR.. M. A. Stewart, possibly
assisted by one or two officials from
indianapolis.
