The Tuberculin Test.
Press Association—Electric Telegraph—Copyright
Sydney, December 23.
lii an article in the Daily Telegraph, Dr Wolfe, the well known Melbourne oculist and physiologist, strongly condemns tuberculin inoculation of human beings . and cattle. If the practice is persisted in of applying the test to cattle it will soon ruin several industries. The tuberculin, when it did not react, led the cattle to receive a clean bill of health, but statistics showed that 14.6 per cent of these certified animals react in the following year. He declares that such a contamination of cattle is a far* reaching evil and heinous crime in a cattle breeding .country.
