The eradication Of tuberculosis In

state and United States departments
Of agriculture was continued during
the month the same ss during the
past year. After the passage Of the
agricultural bill BY Congress. the
United States department OF Agricul-
ture will participate in the payment Of
indemnities for cattle slaughtered as
reactors. II is estimated that this
will result In approximately one-half
In cost Of indemnities being paid by
the federal government and that there
will thus be sufficient funds available
for testing for tuberculosis from the
state appropriation and the federal
appropriation so that It will be posi-
BILE to test double the number Of herds
tested during the past year. In July
there we're 20 herds containing 554
head Of cattle tubsrculin tested by
state and federal veterinarians. OF
which SO head were condemned Re-
ports were received Of 46 head Of
cattle tested privately OF which two

head tested for shipment out Of the

Emperor William ii on the death of
his father, Frederick III. June 10. 1888.
He came out of the University of Bonn
fully prepared to enter the school of
statecraft. Set to work in the govern
ment bureaus, he was early taught the
routine of official business under the
tutelage of the great Bismarck.
At the death OF his father, the i'm
perial throne devolved upon William
II, who was then but twenty-nine
years of age. Bismarck continued as
chancellor. but not for long.
In 1890 the disagreement of the two
men reaehed crisis, n rupture came

tween the two men remained strained
for several years. but before Bismarck
died peace was made between them.
