THE TUBERCULINE TEST.

Thomas H. Glenn writing to The Des-
eret News from Chicago takes up the
cudgels on behalf Of the tubercullne
test for cattle and undertakes TO show
where farmers who have been pro-
testing against the killing of their cat
Tie are in error. He says;
Il note in a recent issue Of your pa

woke resistance on the part OF the farm-

few words may be ina order
THE tuberculine test is the most ac-
curate one known to medical science

petcnt and reliable scientists through

the men who are competent 10 apply
the test so that they do not offset ITS

observed one COW which acted peculiar

doubtedly have been condemned. Il

logic TOT "a Nlau 10 use III Allt NAuuN OF

one observation alone and much moro
so DO that observation be not an accur-

respondent that the tuberculine reac-
ton has been tested on thousands OF
animals by scientists and found fairly
accurate. IL Is the best method Tor
detecting early stages ~ the disease

ing many states and countries OF tn
