A. Archibald, City Veterinarian and Meat, Market and Milk Inspector of Oak- land, who is enthusiastic over the Ger- | man sclentist’s discovery. | Dr. Archibalé thinks that the bovo- | vaccine may not only eradicate the dread | tuberculosis among cattle, ' but render 2 | human beinge immune from the disease These experiments are being made | under the direction of Dr. Emil Weschke, | Dr. Von Behring’s personal representa- tive in this country. Ten young calves on the dairy of H. W. Meek near Hay- ward have been inoculated and they will be kept separated from the herd for | three months when they will be in- | oculated again and turned out among the other cattle. It will be a vear, however, e the results of the experiment will nown. The method of treatment dif- fers from vaccination for smallpox in that | the bovo-vaccine is hypodermically in- | ected into the Jugular vein and the | effects are internal instead of external. | That bovo-vaccine will be a great boon { haps stamp out consumption Dr. Archi- bald is satisfled. He sald today: As a rule 1 am conservative about taking up |2 new v, but 1 have investigated this oughly ese experiments will exoesd our expectations d that bove-vaccine will prove an effectual tive of tuberculosis. In Germany Dr. von Behring have proved & success there. no reason why it should not prove just as successtul in California &s in Germamy or anywhere else. When it is considered that about one-third of the cattle are tubercular, one can see the appalling danger to humanity through the consumption of mifki and with the disease eradicated science will have taken a ng step forward. The sciepiific world's at- on turned toward Dr. von Behring’s exper- ents. The tests undertaken by the Oskland Board of He: will be carefully conducted and the | calves Inoculated are being closely watched.

WIEL EXPERIMENT WITHSTURDY CATTLE Unecle Sam Wants Cow Fit to Stand the Climate of Alaska. SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL. TACOMA, April 12.—Realizing the need of giving every encouragement to the promotion of cattle breeding and the development of the dairy industry in Alaska, the United States Govern- ment bas decided to branch .out in its experiments. For many years the De- partment of Agriculture has had cattle breeding stations in Alaska. Most of the experiments have been conducted with native cattle born of Imported! Holsteln and Jersey stock. It has been found that while the animals are fair milkers they do not stand the rigors of Alaskan winters, being short haired and not sggressive In foraging for them- selves. It has been determined to try out more hardy breeds, and after welghing the merits of the -different strains Professor Georgeson, who is in charge of the department’s work, with headquarters at Sitka, selected the black Galloway as the animal best fit- ted for the northern country. He Is now en route to Alaska with a selected herd of Galloways. Part of the herd will be sent to Wood Island, near Ko- dfak Island and the rest to Kenal. Ex- periments will be made in breeding and cross-breeding with native cattle, with a view to securing an animal that will prove a good milker and yet stand the climate.
