official test.
Under the official test the plugged"
cow fails to respond and a clean bill
OF health over the signature of

traitor OF the trick, and the other
copy filed with the State Department

In this manner tuberculin. the dis

ination of tuberculosis among dairy

For years State and federal officials

nearly every gland and organ of the

full of the toXines of its own manu-
facture that it either fails TO react
to the tuberculin test or suffers
what is called a delayed reaction.
BY means of the delayed reaction
many so-called official tests termi-
mating at the twenty-fourth hour,
when they should be continued to the
thirty-sixth hour. have been proved
TO be worthless. Even certified herds
have been the victims of this condi-
ton, a fact the authenticated details

become so alarming that the annual
report of the New York State De-
partment of Agriculture Bureau of
Veterinary Service for 1913 was sup
pressed.
In that suppressed report, a certi-
fed copy of which is in my posses
sion, appears the following:
1T is to be hoped that some pro-
vision in the near future will be made
for systematic and practical in
Spection OF dairy cows with the object
of reducing the number of spreaders
OF tuberculosis in our herds.
In the past year approximately but
per cent. of dairy cattle were exam
ined for tuberculosis, the remaining
81 per cent. being under no syste-
matte scheme of supervision.
The knowledge of the average con-
sumner of meat and milk concerning
the characteristics and peculiarities
VI bONi ilIG luD6ICulOSlS Is very SllEnl
and it is serious obstacle to prac-
teal solution of the tuberculosis
problem.
only as the public becomes more
enlightened in this matter will the
difficulty in checking or controlling
tuberculosis. both in man and ami
mails, be decreased"
That the milk men know of the
existence of this suppressed report is
evidenced by the fact that they con-
stituted the influences which brought
about its suppression.
With these preliminary outlines be-
fore US we are now ready TO deter
mine in some measure the gravity of
the milk situation in general and thus
obtain an adequate appreciation of
the hetnous activities which thus far
have succeeded in retarding the ac-
tivities of Federal, State and NUM-
cipal officials in cleaning up the
country's milk and butter supply.

vice which Immediately became auto

IT is significant fact that the car

it resulted from structural weakness

Tuberculnr cattle are plugged" in
order 10 conceal the evidence of their
disease. During the plugged period,
lasting about n month. the diseased
dairy animal receives a clean b!u of
Acalth that keeps her free from official
interference for year.
When the tuberculin test. by which
the presence of tuberculosis among
cattle is detected, was fully estab-
lished as an accurate method of dag
nosis, public health authorities did not
dream that IL would be used on a vast
scale by cattle dealers and dairymen
tor the purely commercial purpose of
concealing the presence of the dis
ease.
In New York. New Jersey and Illi-
nois the plugging OF tubercular cows
has reached such vast proportions that
in a number of instances honest off,
cials have been rendered almost pow
erless through the trickery practiced
in this manner.
Cattlemen have discovered that a
dose of tuberculin injected into the
neck of a tubercular COW is followed
by a peculiar phenomenon which
scientists call reaction"
Usually few hours after the test
is applied the tubercular COW suffers
a rise in temperature.
The fever continues until il reaches
lts climax. when at the end of six or
eight hours II begins to subside, form
ing the typical reacting surve.
Cattle dealers have learned that af-
ter this reaction the tubercular COW,
for a period of three or four weeks
will not respond TO another test, ad-
ministered in the ordinary manner.
During this short period OF i'm
munity an official test made by a
State veterinarian. will fail to disclose
the presence OF the disease.
Out of-this condition has grown the
present system of plugging" suspect

EpIsCoPALtANs WOULD CHANGE
MARRIAGE CEREMONIES

ST. LOUIS. Oct lO.-The ten
commandments. the marriage cere'
mony and the Lords Prayer as they
have stood through the ages are TO
be changed By the general conven-
ton OF the Protestant Episcopal
church which convenes here tomor-
row If the reports of committees and
subcommittee are endorsed.
In the marriage ceremony the COM
mittee will recommend that the word
obey" ia he brides promise be
replaced By keep" that the giving
away of the bride be omitted en-
tirely and the groom's promise &c
"endow" the bride with all his
worldly goods be eliminated.
A committee will recommend that
the commandments be shortened by
the omission OF the reason for theli
observance. The recommendation
will be based on the fact that the
reasons we're peculiar 10 the life oil
the Israelites and that changed mod
ern ways have robbed the arguments
of much of their weight.
The committee OH revising the
Lords Prayer will recommend the
elimination of the words. For thine
is the kingdom. and the power, and
the glory, forever" In requesting
the omission the committee will say
the words constitute part of the
Doxology added by early translators
and that they are not in the original
text of the holy scriptures. The
omission Would make the prayer
identical with the Roman Catholic
version The same committee will
probably ask the elimination from
the Book of Common Prayers the
prayers for Jews, infidels and
Turks The proposal is based on
the ground that it is unWarranted
to class the Jews, with. the others.
A canon prohibiting marriage
when either party to the contract
has wife or husband living and
has been divorced for any cause
arising after marriage will be pre-
scented for action. Many notable
churchmen gathered here today for
the opening.
