I am writing. as l believe. in the In
terest of the taxpayers ard the live
stock interests of various States, and I
desire careful consideration by all who
read what 7 write. We al realize that
during the last decade a great hue and
cry has been raised regarding the cattle
traffic between one State and another.
The impression prevailed that each
State should protect its cattle industry
by passing laws prohibiting the bringing
Of dairy cattle or breeding cattle into the
State without their being tubererlin test

States to that effect the argument being
used before legislative committees that II
laws compelling the tuberculin test were

from other States. Yet not = particle OF
evidence has ever been brought forward
to show that the percentage Of tubercu-

No Evidence Appeared.

II Il appeared that Ohio contained az
any point a larger proportion OF tubercu-
lous cattle than did New York or Penn
sylvania. then there would be valid rea-
sons for New York and Pennsylvania re-
quiring that some inspection OF Ohio cat
tie be made before they were brought
to these States. but no such. evidence
appeared. Massachusetts. Vermont, New
HsmpshiFe-in fact. think all New Eng
land States except Connecticut-have for
years demanded that cattle from other
States be tuberculin tested.
A small army Of veterinary inspectors
have been for ten years and more en-
ployed to test cattle. yet say that Con-
nectlcut is as free from tuberculous cat
tie as any State in the Union, and more
free from the disease than the New
England States employing the army OF
veterinary inspectors. Why? may be
asked.
The answer is that too much value
has been placed on tubeFculin testing
There are too many ways TO evade the
law. Cattle can be injected with tuber-
culin few days before being shipped
and they viii not respond when they
arrive at their point OF destination. and
they are sold 10 farmers who place re-
lance on the State test. even when the
cattle show by their looks to be ailing
with tuberculous disease.
Thus it IS that there is an actual In
ducement for disreputable men 70 plug
with tuberculin animals known 10 be
tuberculous and ship them to other
States. Some such cases occurred TO my
knowledge a few years ago.
other Side of Problem.
But there Is another side to the prob
lem. At this season OF the year and
again about April there is q strong de-
mand for fresh cows. or those soon TO be
fresh. In Eastern Pennsylvania and New
Jersey, TO supply milk for Greater New
York City. Near Buffalo and Pittsburg
the same condition exists.
Honorable cattle dealers go forth to
hunt up cows TO supply this demand.
They can rarely ever find carload
owned by one man. They have 10 hunt
them up. a COW in place. Farmer A
has COW with a calf, one, two or three
days old. Farmer B lives two or three
miles from him. and he has a COW or
two that will be fresh IN two or three
weeks. Farmer c lives two or three
more miles In another direction and owns
COW or two he will sell that win be
fresh in a month.
In that way the buyer has 70 pick UP
his carload. These buyers are expert
judges OF darby cows always. They
win buy nothing that shows any symp-
toms OF disease or has Jumps in her I'd
der. Now he is taking his load. sup

have them tubereulln tested by a veter-
marian whom the New Jersey authori-
ties will recognize as reliable. honest
veterinarian who can issue certificate
as to the healthfulness under the tuber-
culin test; or else the buyer viii have
to have them tested when they arrive
In the State of New Jersey. Now to the
point:

At southern banquet recently
Mr.. Bryan made the following very
philosophical remarks:
II tell people never expect to be
or never hope to be a candidate for
president again. One reason for not
wanting to is that Mr. Roosevelt took
some of my policies and Mr.. Taft is
taking others. If I ran again they
would raise the "third-term' cry on
me, saying I had served two terms al
ready. And why should a man have
all the worry and all the annoyance
of being president when he can get
men to do the. work for him, left free
as I am to go around to meet friends
on occasions of this kind and really
