Many Cows Carry Germs
Medical authorities consider milk
one of the most active agents in the
transmission of tuberculosis germs
Many cows are afflicted with the dis
case and it is impossible to detect it
without an approved test The sale
of milk from tubercular cows is a
dangerous practice, according to DR..
RoWlcs. and must be prohibited.
Public health is too important a
matter" said he today, ito allow the
preiudices or fears of financial loss
entertained by a few herd owners to
interfere. Undoubtedly the objection
is that we may find tubercular cattle
in their herds and of course if we do
the cows will be condemned. They
should be condemned and this depart
ment would not be doing its duty if il
permitted milk to be sold from such
diseased animals The fact that the
owners may lose money because OF
cows condemned is minor matter"
Ii Will Cost $500.
A compromise has been reached be-
tween the city milk inspector and DR.
Byerly whereby the cost of the tests
will be $400. The contract will be
signed some time this afternoon. The
cows in all of the dairy herds outside
OF town VIII be tested ana all OF the
larger herds in the city will be given
the test. The plan of testing all of the
individual cows furnishing milk to one
or two families was given up because
of a lack of funds.
IF there is any general opposition
to the tuberculin test" declared DR.
Rowles today, this department will
cease its policy of leniency Immediate
ly. Either the cows will be tested Oh
milk from them will not be sold in To
peka. That's final"
DR. Rowles talked the matter over
with his chief Commissioner w 1.

ferred with the city attorney, George

looking for a pad and 1 found it in
the middle drawer of papa's desk, so
it nome to mother and she looked in it
good and then 1 took it back"
After Bobby Pettis's father got shot
in the head, didn't you tell your father
that that was what he would get if he
didn't let Miss Burger alone?" asked
Attorney General Rice.
But Charlie protested he had never
said that. Neither had he told the
Mueller girl, his fathers cook that if
coffee it would kill him or that If Miss
Burger did not watch out she would get
a bullet, or that he was going to get
in some night and chloroform Miss
Burger and the dog and get his father.
Finally the attorney general asked
Charlie if he had not talked over his
testimony with Mr.. Fitzgerald and
Mr.. Gushing and he replied "Oh,
yes, but they told me to tell the truth.
They never coached me in what to say.
They never told me to say anything"
Then everyone smiled broadly.
