180 appendix. take one-sixtieth of a drop of tuberciiline and inject it into a human being who has tuberculosis he will have a rise of temperature in two hours; and with the cow if the tuber-culine is injected the temperature goes up and the same symptoms follow that show in the human system. Now, the meat of cattle infected with tuberculosis would not give us all consumption, because some of us are immune—that is, some are susceptible to the disease and others are not^ and those that are not susceptible to the disease are called immune. I saw that five cats were fed on the meat of a tuberculous cow. Four of them ate the meat and the fifth one ate of a gland. In a week the fifth cat had tuberculosis and in five weeks died. Those persons who are subject to glandular enlargements, which we call scrofulous, are more susceptible than others. If we suspect that a cow is not healthv, then we should have the test made with tuber-culine, which is just as easy as it can be. Many of our diseases of the spine with children are nothing more nor less than tuberculosis—not of the lungs, but of the spine. In the name of the commonest of common sense we should do what we can to suppress it." Dr. Lewis: ''Being somewhat of a dairyman myself, I will sav that a cow is likelv to show the same svmptoms that a person does. She will cough and become thin. If a cow has a cough and is very thin, and if she is hard to fatten, if her hair is rough and stands up the wrong way, then you may suspect that she has tuberculosis, but the onlv wav to find out with certaintv is bv the scientific method of tuberculine. Now, of course, you have not got any tubei'culine, but if you will apply to the North Carolina Experiment Station they will i)ut you in the way of having the test made. Xow while I am up, and as I am a practical illustration of what Dr. Battle has said to you, I will state that I am the subject of hip-joint disease. My father
