With this advice still ringing In

started for the man who had stood

TUBERCULIN TEST
IS A PROBLEM
Supervisors Consider Question In
q Open Meeting on the
Ordinance.

At the open meeting held last night
by the sanitary committee of the
Board of Supervisors the possibility
Of enforcing the tuberculin test on
dairy cows was the most important
question that came up for considera
ton. II was the sentiment of tho
members Of the committee that I.
would be to he general benefit OF the
public to enforce the test and the only
doubt expressed bore on the problem
Of the necessary legislation.
The original ordinance required that
all milk from tuberculln tested cows
should go into effect Immediately. OBJ,
lection was raised to this by d. p. r
Isenberg. who stated that all the cows
in the country could not be put to the
test In less than years time.
Replying to a question from Super
visor Logan. DR.. Norgaard, the Ter
ritorial veterinarian. expressed the
opinion that the Board OF Agriculture
might undertake the work of testing
the cows, but said that the county
would have to provide the funds. lie
also observed that about $500 COWS
were used to provide the people Of
Oahu with milk and that It would nee
essarily require some time to put them
all to the test.

THE VISITING fleet.

With the date set for the arrival
of Admiral Sebree's feet Of armored
cruisers, the thoughts OF Honolulu
people will at once turn to the plans
for appropriate reception and en-
.tertainment. II is obvious that on
account OF the fleet itinerary allow
ing a months stay in Honolulu, the
program will need be different from
the usual feet visitation during
which the officers and men are kept
on a busy round from the time they
land until they depart.
The Bulletin would suggest
that both officers and men will en-
Joy themselves quite as much II the
formal entertainment is covered
with one or two special functions
and after that they be allowed to do
as they please. There is such a
thing as bestowing too much enter
tainment on public guests, particu-
tarly when the visitors are out for
work and not making business OF
public receptions. as was the case
with the Atlantic battleship feet.
The reported months stay In Ho-
n0lulu doubtless means that the feet
will do more or less maneuvering in
these waters and some or all OF the
ships may visit other ports.
Honolulu will be no less cordial
and very much more practical IL II
hoes not attempt to do too much in
Ahe way OF formal affairs and does
That very well.
n II the officers and men are made
10 feel at home and the talkative
bnes OF Honolulu forget to remark
how nice It will be or Is for the
business of the town to have eight
cruisers In the port, the visit Of the
will be very gratifying and
to all concerned.
