In the present movement for the
eradication of tuberculosis from
South Carolina one important source
Of danger has evidently received lit
tie consideration-the t~uberculous
COW.
While some difference of opinion
exists regarding the danger of inter-
transmisibility of tuberculosis, most
investigators are convinced that it is
possible for the disease to be trans
mitted from cattle to human beings.
European and American scientists
have shown that healthy cattle con-
tract tuberculosis when human tu-
bercle bacilli are injected into their
bodies and, as bovine tubercle bacilli
are frequently recovered from the It's
sues of the human body, it seems that
the transmisibility Of the disease must
be admitted.
AS dairy products form an import
ant part of the diet of practically all
persons and in some instances the
entire diet Of infants, the t~uberculous
dairy cow can not be overlooked in a
fight against the white plague.
Unfortunately cattle which are in
an apparently healthy condition are
often affected with tuberculosis and,
as the disease progresses slowly, may
live for years without causing their
owners to even suspect the presence
of the disease. In the meantime, how
ever, the cattle may be disseminating
tubercle bacilli, injecting the milk as
we'll as their surroundings.
1t was formerly believed that I'M
less cattle we're affected with tubercu-
losis of the udder the milk could be
safely used, but recent investigations
have shown the fallacy of this belief.
DR.. Schroeder of the U. S. department
of agriculture has recently shown
that faces from apparently healthy
cattle contain large numbers of tu-
bercle bacilli which have undoubtedly
found their way from the diseased
lungs to the mouth and throat and
thence to the intestines. In view of
the fact that milk is almost Invariably
contaminated with faces, it now
seems that this is the most. common
channel by which tubercle bacilll in
feet milk.
Experiments have shown that tu-
bercle bacilli retain their virulence
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-06-03

for a much longer time in dairy pro-
ducts than in the body discharges
and DR.. Schroeder has also proved
that tubercle bacilli may live and re-
main virulent in butter for a period OF
five months. Bearing in mind that
| cream and butter as we'll as milk may
contain virulent tubercle bacilli, it is
not difficult to see how bovine tuber-
Gle bacilli may gain entrance to the
human body. In this connection it
i might be well to state that DR.. Raw
enel, a native Of South Carolina, was
one of the first to show that tubercle
bacilli can pass through the intestin-
al wall without injuring the same and
eventually reach the lungs and other
organs of the body.
Although one of the most common
diseases of dairy cattle, it is practi-
cally impossible to diagnose tubercu-
losis by a physical examination I'M
less the animal is in an advanced
stage of the disease. Fortunately,
however, the %tuberculin test enables
competent veterinarians to detect the
disease in it's early stages. This test,
when properly conducted, enables the
cattle owners to discover t~uberculous
COWS and remove them from his herd,
thus preventing spread Of the disease
which would otherwise result.
Tuberculin also makes possible
the enactment Of city and town ordin-
ances for protection of public health
by prohibiting the sale of milk from
cattle which are thus shown to be
affected with tuberculosis. Green
Vile and Spartanburg are the only
cities in South Carolina, having such
ordinances.)
At the present time SO States Gin
GLIDING South Carolina) have laws re-
| curing the testing of all dairy and
breeding cattle and their freedom
from tuberculosis before they are al
lowed to enter these States. Laws of
this kind, by preventing the importa-
ton of tuberculous dairy cattle, place
the individual States in a position to
begin systematic eradication of the
disease, and as 10 States passed such
laws within the past year, this indi-

incident which compelled the people
of the United States to regard Spain
as an impossible neighbor."
An American court of inquiry
which conducted it's deliberations
aboard the lighthouse tender, Cam
| grove, while the little cruiser Mont
| gomery took the ,Maine's> place as
guardship found that the ship was
destroyed by an explosion outside her
hull. A Spanish court found that. the
explosion came from inside. It open
ed that her forward magazine had
blown up and that the second explo-
sion was the waist magazine. In the
state of public mind nobody in Amer
lea believed the Spanish report. There
was a cry for war and war came.
Roosevelt's Rough Riders went up
Kettle Hill with the cry, Remember
the Maine" So the Texans at the
Brazos, Remember the Alamo.
Why the Delay.
The Maine sank in six fatnoms Of
water. For twelve years she has been
settling in the mud. At any time it
would have been a comparatively easy
job to raise her, but for some reason
the United States government would
never do this-not even to give decent
sepulcher to the bodies inside. Once,
in 1904, the Cuban government began
her removal because she was a men
ace to navigation, but here u navy
department stepped in with the an
nouncement that the wreck was Unit
ed States property, which could not
be abandoned without act of congress.
For twelve years congress declined
to pass the act. Now the wreck is to
be removed. Why the long delay?
In Cuba there r people who be-
lieve that when the rusted plates are
liftd they will be found bent from the
in%sideout, thus tending to show that
the explosion did not come from a
mine or a bomb, but from something
in the ships interior. But as the man
on the Malecon says, "Quien sabe"

FROM NEWBERRY TO UNION.

Newberry was glad to welcome the
delegates from the Union chamber of
commerce who were in Newberry on
Wednesday in the interest of good
roads. Whether or not the propcs-
ed
Asheville highway goes by Union, we
ought to have a good permanent road
from Newberry to Union, and the
Union delegation told the Newberry
people that. Union was ready and
willing and anxious to build her part
of the road.
The route for the proposed high
way from Columbia to Newberry has
already been definitely decided upon,
and what Union should do now is to
work for a road from Union to New
berry, and if the through-fare from
Columbia via Newberry and Spartan
burg to Asheville does not go through
Union, then the Union road could tap
the highway at Newberry and go to
Columbia via the Columbia-Newberry-
Spartanburg-Asheville highway.
We can't have too many good
roads, and the ultimate object of the
whole agitation is good roads.
We need a good permanent road
from Newberry to Union, and The
Herald and News pledges the Union
chamber Of commerce and the people
of Union its support in helping to get
it.
The gentlemen from Union. who
were in Newberry on Wednesday
made many friends while here, and
Newberry will be glad to see them
again.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-06-03

The Herald and News wants to sug-
gest to the people of Union that they
lay aside any thought of trying to
take the highway from Columbia to
Asheville up Broad river, and that
they cooperate with the parties who
have already definitely decided On
bringing the highway by Newberry,
and if the main through-fare does not
go from Newberry to Spartanburg,
via Union, that we build a road from
Union to Newberry tapping the main
through-fare here. That seemed to
be the sentiment of the Union repre-
sentatives of the chamber of COM
merce who were in Newberry on
Wednesday, and it is along this line
that Union should work.

the Abbeville Press and Banner cuts
were printed showing the park in the
public square, surrounding the Con-

These public buildings have lawns

strides in the past few years in beau
tifying the town, and it is improve
ment of the kind which appeals most
strongly to strangers in her midst.

REMEDY WITH THE PEOPLE.

The bribery scandals in Illinois
constitute the latest chapter in the
graft record. Graft seems to be prev
alent everywhere. The only way to
stop it is for the people who cast the
votes to elect the right men to office
A member of a legislature is the rep
resentative of the people who send
him to the legislature, and, construc'
tivly. what he does, they do. The
people are too lax in choosing people
to office.
